retrosexual123 859 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Because A: the video is visually poor, badly executed with recycled shots from the Apple Music commercial and lets the song down. B: i am done with her being depressed, down, always having a reason to struggle and not having the guts to be happy and enjoy life. I do not want to be dragged down the,depression path, down the 'my life is terrible - so much so that I tried to kill myself and then put it in a video path. I am done with her ugly truth. Ive got my own life to worry about with my real problems and to have gaga show me how even more **** life can be is dishesrtening. There is no more empowerment, no more hope, no more creativity. I feel like she's resigned to be 'the failed pop star' and by making her work depressive and mediocre (not the music or certain performances though, just the whole feeling i get of the era) she's dragging herself down even more and bringing us with her.

JohnnyVersace 8,987 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Poor acting, poor storyline, recycled footage and a lack of creativity. But most of all, it doesn't seem like Lady Gaga. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

retrosexual123 859 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Heck so she wanted to show us her life, her day to day... here's a much better idea than what was put out: grab your iPhone Gaga, shoot your day today, talk to us, and have the music fade in and out. Edit it real nice and there you go, an honest, unpretensive video about your life. the thing with the actual video is that it comes across as fake with the bad acting, the basic guitar playing (on an electric guitar - the actual song has piano and acoustic guitar if im not mistaken) and the 'crying' in front of a mirror. It's jut not good. I'm sure she's gonna look back at it in 4-5 year's time and think 'oooh wow how did I put that out'.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't want a real artist with things to say, the good and the bad, just go listen to what's on the radio and leave this fanbase asap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delusional Aura 5,129 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 She could've just continue to walk in the desert while having a professional direct the video tbh. Someone earlier said it was poorly shot and edited and yes they were correct. We don't care if it was simple. Just have it properly done. You have indie artists putting out better edited videos than gaga. What mess is that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no reason to be rude with me babe... plus don't assume i listen to the top 40 24/7. Chill, give your opinion, but be aware, you're no one to tell me to 'leave' just because you don't like what I said. Peace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oriane 20,937 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 I don't mind something simple (I love The Edge of Glory and Perfect Illusion, although Perfect Illusion is technically complex). But it lacks something. I don't think there's a problem with the idea or the shots, the story could have been interesting and the shots are beautiful. There's a problem with the editing, some scenes are too long or don't fit, are not well connected. The only GGD member who can read / Credits to Celloo Deng for the profile pic!

SEXODUS 5,927 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Truth is it's a bad executed music video that doesn't fit with what's behind the song It's boring, the plot (if there is one) doesn't show the intensity and meaning behind the words and what we got is about three minutes of boredom when she plays a guitar and that terrible, terrible attempt at acting on a crying scene. The only part I'd save is of when she's in the desert and the crew comes to show her affection and support. That kind of idea could've been developed better. The result is just a lazy and rushed attempt at being as basic as any other artists out there. Fans get it. With Joanne she wanted to strip off of all the craziness and hyperboles shown during the previous eras, thus showing her most personal side, and the album was overall well-received because it's good music. It's okay to be basic, but basic doesn't mean you can be lazy. Simplicity CAN be creative, it NEEDS to be creative if you don't want to produce trash music and get yourself an image that says "I'm like everybody else" since she isn't like everybody else: she's Lady Gaga for the music industry, not Joanne, not Stefani, not whatever she is on her everyday life (which I'm okay with, do mind this). So that's what fans expect: the most mindblowing music videos and the most of her art, whatever that maybe, but NOT this kind of forced attempt at approval from the GP. Not from a woman that once said we are born this way and we don't need anyone else's approval. Love you all the way, Gags, but do get your $hit together asap.

Bette Davis 12,742 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 I think the video was really, really disappointing and easily her worst by far, but I am also confused as to why it triggered the biggest meltdowns and bashings that I've seen on this site since joining. Do people have short-term memory loss or something? Weren't they all screaming praises like a week ago after the VS fashion show, but now people are shredding her apart and abandoning ship over a music video? At least the music is good and she's getting this "stripped-down, personal" phase out of her system. Cold as ice cream, but still as sweet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xoxo Craig 55,649 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 37 minutes ago, Gabi said: My question is: 75% of gagadaily its really unhappy about the Million Reasons music video. The video its pretty bland and basic, but its not terrible or unprofessional, so whats the real reason behind this lash out, numerous threads and newbies? Thuth is, Gaga has done a lot a promo this era and had some great performances. Im not a big fan of Joanne, but i am pretty pleased with the amazing vocals and momenta we got this year SO WHY would ONE music video set people off like this? Because she said it had a twist and a it was a sequel and u got ur hopes up? Because you finally woke from the chock and realized that country Gaga isnt for you? Because shes holding a cross on it and that triggers you? Is it rooted on the fact that fans dont like to see that she isnt happy with fame and her carrer right now? I dont think the music video its the only one to blame for this reactions. Whats the thruth? First things first, she aint a country singer! 2nd of all, fans miss the old Gaga the one that was crazy and stuff and even hatted be herself for being like that. 3rd its the Bowie affect.

Let me get this straight (): I'm sure that most fans on this site are just forcing themselves to like her new music and image. That's because they are taught that true fanzzzz have to like everything the artist does or they'll go to hell or something, so it's always very likely for them to just like explode and express their disapproval at the first misstep.
