INNA 3,550 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I don't know if you've seen this, but here is the official interpretation of the song from Gaga herself: “The record is about a girl who likes to have s-x with the lights off, because she’s embarrassed about her body. She doesn’t want her man to see her naked. She will be free, and she will let her inner animal out, but only when the lights are out. She doesn’t feel free without the moon. These lyrics are a way for me to talk about how I believe women and some men feel innately insecure about themselves all the time. It’s not sometimes, it’s not in adolescence, it’s always. The song isn’t called ‘Dance in the Light,’ I’m not a gospel singer trying to cross people over. What I’m saying is, ‘I get it. I feel you, I feel the same way, and it’s OK.’” fragment-fragment--bul-uh...scab-uh..fragment-foot, bullet fragment foot bich! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 89,103 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 She said it is about being afraid of s-x/having s-x with the lights off If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head Empty 22,858 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Adding to what others I have already said, I think that the song in general is simply about insecurity, or "fear of yourself". The song is produced in such a way that you hear a lot of Gaga's vocals echo throughout the song. When you listen to it with headphones, you even hear the voices jump from left to right all the time. To me, the song symbolizes overthinking everything and being haunted by insecure thoughts. "Dancing" in the dark takes on the meaning of keeping your "true" self and all your thoughts+fantasies hidden from everyone else, because you're afraid that others won't accept you.

SlaeUrAnus 14,922 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 It is about a girl who is self conscious about her body and does not want her boyfriend to see it in the light.So instead she has s-x in the Dark.Very deep and very dark song. My most favourite song of all time. In my messy era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorothy Gale 7,575 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 not at all. For me the song has a deeper meaning.

AgusPop 4,064 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Judy was insecure about her looks actually. She was called a hunchback by the people at MGM. Ok, but Marilyn Monroe was well known for her love affairs. she was not shy at all. Its ok that interpretation. Gaga herself said that. but for me. it has a deeper interpretation Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
