Music videos - Conventions of contemporary music videos

There are three general types of music videos made :
1. Performance based music videos e.g a live band performance. This music video is largely associated with rock music. Artists such as Beyonce , U2 and Muse make such videos
2. Narrative based music videos e.g where a storyline is evident examples of artists who use this are Ed Sheeran and Noel Gallagher
3. Abstract /artistic music videos i.e Radio head. One example of this is a song called "Teardrop" where the whole video is a baby in a womb singing which makes the whole video very surreal.
It is possible and it has been known that all types of music video can be combined in different forms.
