This Intertexuality of the idea of people being made to be a certain way, by the government or more known as Big Brother.

Strawberry Fields
Artist: The Beatles
Release Date: February 1967
Genre: psychedelic rock
Director: The Beatles
In the music video for Strawberry Fields Forever it is set in an obvious location of a field, which creates the intertexuality of The Beatles singing about a field while having a psychedelic video in a field. Also with the video having a very weird attitude in it with a piano in a park connected to a tree with many strings. All theses tiny characteristics in the video show the intertexuality of the genre/song to the video an obvious connection.
