Now that we know what obsession sounds like, what does it look like? Artists demonstrate the concept of stalking the object of their romantic desire even clearer with visual tools of physically chasing this object, presenting a non-expressive diegetic performance, and using the camera as a third party viewer with a cinematic focus.<\/p>\n
By becoming the stalker, artists immerse themselves in the obsessive nature of their music. In \u201cAlways Something There to Remind Me,\u201d Byrne is seen following his famous object of romantic interest from setting to setting with a continuous gaze. He physically stalks the woman, visiting scenes from the church she was married at, to the restaurant where she dances with her husband. Levine also physically embodies the characteristics of a stalker, as he follows his real-life wife Behati from her work on the street, or stands outside her window as she sleeps.<\/p>\n
