Music Video - Visuals/camera work

Song = Teenage Dirtbag by Wheatus
During the start of the video movement of the camera and people are slow, this is much like the rhythm of the song. As the song goes on to say about the girl, we are given a slow-motion view of her swishing her hair. At the chorus of the song we are view snapping movements of the camera facing the band as the pace of the song speeds up. Also during the chorus, we see the band and people in the background enjoying the song then we get a cross-cut to the boy having a hard time at the school. 
Later on, the song describes the girl's boyfriend as this is being done we see boyfriend walking down the corridor.

    You make a number of relevant, precise points about editing. Good work, Charlie. The last sentence is, however, descriptive rather than analytical. What could you say about the editing here?
    Watch your English: 'At the chorus of the song we are view snapping movements of the camera '. What do you mean?
