Similar Songs
One song in particular that sounds similar to "Keep it together" is Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NV6Rdv1a3I) as the two songs share a mostly even pace throughout the duration of the song along with a short set of repeating lyrics.
It terms of visuals, there is not much to say about the music video for Get Lucky as it is a single still for the majority of the duration of the song that begins to move at about halfway. This mimics the subtle charges in the tone of the song and the "background" element of the song as it is not a particularly bold song that implies much narrative or meaning to the lyrics, other than having a good time, giving the music video a very warm and contemporary feel through it's intangible nature.

Visual Influence
It terms of what I would take influence in terms of camera shots, "instant crush", also by daft punk uses a heavy amount of slowly paced camera shots in order to build narrative, paired with off lighting, separate shots depicting lip synching. I also find the use of symbolism and detail in the background objects a point to take note of as it shows the level of detail in the video that creates a strong amount of symbolic imagery and nods to the brand image of Daft Punk, such as the robot heads disguised in a quick shot of a statue head as it gets put into storage. This is done with such a quick shot that no real connotations are driven from it, other than what is centre screen, the statue, protecting the illusion of the narrative within the context of the music video, keeping the viewer immersed. This reinforces that I should make my narrative believable, yet keep it from becoming meta.
