HANZ 4,380 Posted May 17, 2015 Author Share Posted May 17, 2015 You're not helping the situation by instigating the notion and lie that The Edge of Glory video is one of Gaga's worse videos If you're looking for bling not the music, than you should be praising The Edge of Glory video to the heavens above. If you're looking for music not the bling, we'll just drain Gaga of ha money and pop presence with long videos like GUY that many of her fans always ask incessintly of her even when she doesn't have to music not the bling? I thought the ARTPOP era was over I never believed in that thing My Favs = Lady Gaga, Janet Jackson, Ricky Martin, AKB48 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PartySick 159,997 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I think it has more to do with the fact that YouTube wasn't really used for music as often when Gaga had her biggest hits. She's really one of the first to do that. Plus her music is a turn off for anyone who doesn't like to think I mean, she has a song that means "whatever happened to you in the past has made you strong today" but the words she uses are "I'm in love with Judas" alluding to the fact that if it weren't for Judas' betrayal, Jesus wouldn't be the savior the Christians know today. Sh*ts deep. 🌸Flourishing and vibrant🌼 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianni Versace 2,987 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Music not the bling. Thanks God we have masterpieces like Paparazzi, Telephone, Alejandro, the beautiful MTN and one of Gaga's best videos; G.U.Y. I prefer that the videos continue being that long, and with that quality; instead of being short and cheap. I know it's nice to have millions and millions of views, but look at Rude Boy (+309M views) and Marry The Night (+62M) LONG LIVE the queen LONG VIDEOS /thread my thoughts exaclty. I'd rather have a billion artistic, long, brilliant videos a la MTN than short, fast, commercial videos. That's one of many things that makes Gaga an artist (going above and beyond her peers). EDIT: Though, that's not to say we can't have both like the Applause MV. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serendipity 7,821 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I wish Gaga would put out more lyric videos-she only has two-Aura and ApplauseKaty gained her massive streaming power by putting out LV even for non-single tracksShe has like a LV for literally every trackIt definitely will help in charts and we'll have something to watch before the MV arrives I'm 100% sure DWUW would've at least peaked at #9 or #10 with a LVI was pissed she didn't even think of this And to those saying "Music not the bling"It is very noble of you but she needs money after allA time will come where she will need money to fund her music filmsSo, she can put out long videos every once in a while, but not at all times See talent here-->http://bit.ly/2eqeUxK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like mini-movie music videos. I live for videos like Bad, Thriller, Paparazzi, Telephone, Marry the Night, Born This Way, ARTPOP/Venus/G.U.Y.Imo it makes them worth watching. If people don't want to take 15 minutes out of their "busy" lives to support an artist then that's their problem, not Gaga's lol. 🌸Flourishing and vibrant🌼 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
