Gui Guerra 17 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 OMG, i just can't even express with words how much I loved this video. Her best in agessss Also, I feel very happy seeing that it's one of her personal favorite music videos recently Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gui Guerra 17 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Also, LET'S make her proud and make this song chart as higher as we can, in every chart possible. Especially now that Billboard created the Global 200 chart, every international fan has its chance to make a difference. @admin should tweet telling everyone to buy it on iTunes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brooklynights 66 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 ok im not going through all the comments lol but this vid was obviously not what we were expecting. the ROM/SL vids felt more predictable/more music video-like (considering SL teasers were posted beforehand and 911 is a "short film"). this feels like a classic gaga music video, like judas, marry the night or g.u.y., and it really got us all to think and observe closely. i had to watch it a few times to really "get" it. i think its amazing imo, i love that she always seems to surprise us.

LG is not a brand chosen randomly (unless she was sponsored ), brands create a "persona" in order to hit their targets/audience and be likeable, as a result a lot of them have messages they think could inspire us or make us feel like we on the same wave length, Nike Just Do It for ambition, Apple Think Different for visionaries, L'Oréal because you're worth it for confidence...The role of brands in human culture is powerful whether conscious or unconscious we all fall victim to that just as celebrity culture is, they are just like brands, creating an image, and sending messages in order to 'inspire' but feel closer to their fans. Just as Lady Gaga (Note that LG is Lady Gaga) had her face on Billboards in New York City as the brand/popstar 'Gaga' that she has created, LG is a brand promoting its product with a message that simply states 'Life's Good', no more different (although not an object) than Gaga promoting 'Be Kind' . The irony of it, is that the scene portrays Stefani and not 'Gaga' the popstar in a situation that's traumatic and perhaps could turn her life upside down forever, Life's not always Good, just like not everyone's kind, and the striking dichotomy between the message and the situation makes it look, not ironic but I would say 'naive', in the sense that real life is not and can never be what you see on Billboards. Real life Gaga preaching kindness, is her having to live and endure unkind moments, or unkind people. I think it could also represent the plastered smile and positivity you see on screen which is never the reality. I could actually also see it as what people tell to mentally ill people 'Life's good', 'Your life is good you have x y z', they don't try to understand or can't understand and you have to lay there bleeding while enduring that message over and over again. That's how I saw it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotDoctor 704 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I just feel so invigorated. The surrealism and the weird humor really injected an element of Gaga I've been missing for so long but never was able to nail down. I love her, this video and this album so god damn much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neight Shayde 7,925 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 as a film fan i am gagged, gooped, shook, currently still trembling. i was not expecting her to use film references and incorporate it into her own dreams. that's insane.

Tone it down y’all. Just as people can express dislike without saying something is tacky or cheap, y’all can also express your contrary opinion without leaping into classist rhetoric over a pop girl’s music video. take a breather and do ya thing it's not elitism. gaga has always been well-versed in art and given us elevated imagery since the beginning. if you just want robots in space, i don't know what to tell you. something shallow that has never been her gig. the thesis of the fame is "pop music will never be low brow". 🧚♀️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
