· The actual singing doesn't start till the 16th second.

· There is a constant sound of "Ho...Hey" in the background.

· There is a female singer in the song even though she is drastically drowned out by the males.

· Hand clapping is a big thing in this song and the banjo is also a key instrument.

Camera shots and Camera movements

· Tracking shots down the hall way to the main singer which eventually follows him down the entirety of the hall.

· Long shots are also used in that section of the song.

· A mid shot is used to show all the members in the band but this could also be classed as a wide shot as it shows all of the band.

Editing

· Slow motions are used when the main band member steps on the light bulb but once again like the previous two music videos, no other edits are used.
