======= NOTHING IS OFFICIAL! JUST FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES =======
So, I know a guy who works for Sony and once in a while he has inside information. He's the guy from blog.martianleaks.com (he often leaks albums), maybe some of you have already seen his site. Well, over at another board, he posted the Blown Away video concept. I believe it's the official concept, buy now you have to say what you think about it Do you want it to be official? Would you change anything? The storyline itself is very unique, there's not so much that can be changed, but they way the whole thing is done definitelly matters. I hope it ends up being official lol
I really got goosebumps from reading it. He's the entire post:

Blown Away video concept.
(Note, the Carrie in house is not singing. There is another Carrie standing outside in the middle of the street singing the lyrics with her band behind her.)
The video opens with heavy rains. People in town running with newspapers over their heads to their cars, a lady's umbrella gets turned inside out. The camera is zipping to different parts of the city showing people trying to deal with the storm.
The camera then zooms out of the city down a road to a big farm. It isn't raining there, but you can see the lightning clouds coming towards the house.
The first verse starts and the camera zooms into the house. There's an old man laying on the couch, passed out as if he were watching TV. The emergency weather service is is on the TV. Between the TV and the couch stands Carrie. Holding a picture frame and flashlight. When Carrie sings "those storms clouds gather in her eyes," the camera zooms into her face and her eyes are watering, but she's not crying. She shakes her head in a disgusted way, looks away from him. At the line "the weatherman called for a Twister," she shuts the TV off and walks away.
The camera goes out to the street and you see the band playing and Carrie is singing "there's not enough rain in Oklahoma..." It goes back and forth between this and the Carrie in the house collecting all of the pictures off the walls and scrapbooks. You can see the dad still passed out on the couch and the girl walks up the stairs to her room.
When the chorus starts, the camera is switching between Carrie with her band outside (the winds have picked up a bit at this point) and Carrie in her room tearing it to pieces. She's tearing up pictures of her dad, throwing her clothes, etc.
When the chorus ends and Carrie hits the high "Blown AWAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY," the clouds are now really dark, her hair is blowing wildly and a single lightning bolt strikes near the band, tearing the ground up. It's like Carrie is controlling the weather.
As the second verse starts, it zooms back into the girls room. As soon as she starts crying, it starts raining lightly outside on Carrie and the band. The winds are still blowing. It starts showing people around the neighborhood running into their cellars, gathering their kids and just kind of panicking. Carrie (the inside one) sees her father still sleep on the couch. She picks up her whiskey bottle and takes a big drink of it and wipe her mouth.
When the second chorus starts it's really raining hard and lightning everywhere. The band is playing really hard and you can see water everywhere bounding off the drums and dripping from Carrie's hair and she bounces while singing.
For the rest of the video, it zooms between the storm progressing, eventually with a tornado touching down right behind the band and ripping up the house and the inside Carrie who is sitting in a chair in the basement with the light right above dangling and swaying as if the house was moving. There are lots of shots of the house be ripped apart by this storm, with pictures flying everywhere etc.
At the end of the song, Carrie emerges from the basement and the entire house is gone, except for an empty couch.
