Whitney Houston - I Have Nothing

This is an R&B-soul song about a woman who loves another man whom she feels she would be nothing without.
There are several short duration shots with lots of bright, flashing colours, as these types of shots match with the steady pace of the song as well as the mood that the song portrays.
The song sounds very upbeat and climatic, and the visuals show her getting passionate with another man as well as bright lights and fireworks, which means that the music matches very effectively with the visuals  since they both contribute to show the same mood.
There are also several instances in the music video where the lyrics matched up well with the visuals, such as when the artist sings "Stay in my arms" as she hugs a man she loves, "Don't walk away from me" as a male performer looks as if he is actually trying to walk away from her, "I have nothing" as she gestures nothing using her right arm, "Right to the heart of me" as she puts her hand to her heart, and "strength of your love" as she held up her fist. There are also several shots of her singing into the microphone, which can be counted as a motif in the music video since they are used repeatedly.
