So I have two clips that exemplify two elements I really enjoy in music, and they're both from the same song ("Take it Back" by the Barenaked Ladies on their new album Barenaked Ladies are Me). I wish to know what the names of the following elements are, assuming they have them!

First, what is the piano doing in this clip? [162KiB Ogg Vorbis Quality=0]
And second, what is it called when the vocals tell you what the music's about to do? [92KiB Ogg Vorbis Quality=0]

Do not fret if you do not know the answer. If you don't have it, I'll end up going to [livejournal.com profile] lj_genie and/or Ask Metafilter.

I think what you're hearing in the first is the series of broken chords. If there's a specific term for the second, I don't know it.
