The whole concept and the horror elements scream night and dark, so i am sure that the decision to make it during the day is for a reason, do you have any ideas? It’s to make a stylised and conscious contrast. There’s so many ways to interpret the video. One way to look at it, the inner demons are not only active in the night and dark… People suffer in during the “bright” and regular days. The white houses could symbolise purity, innocence, something untouched or potential on the outside, but inside there’s so much darkness “ Ah, poison on the inside”. The chain scene could be inside those houses even it feels more hospital… That is a direct depiction of inner wars. While that darkness is there the light still touches her from the outside. I could go on… Whispers in the witches wind 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I think it looks different edit: No, it's a different one, because it doesn't have the shoulder pieces. I thought of marry the night outfit there… Whispers in the witches wind 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's sort of a 'Gimme More' moment Wow I love that. This video is actually so well thought out. One of my favorites! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NibbCub 186 Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 The outfitted Gaga driving resembles a plague DOCTOR. I think she's absorbing the sickness. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babylon Dynasty 1,793 Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 (edited) The prison-like scene reminded me of this performance: I think that scene may represent the high expectations she was held to (Fame is a prison) and how she would sacrifice herself in order to fullfill that (specially throughout ARTPOP era) and how she uses her own body to reach the top while her "Dark side" (who's probably hungry for fame) watches + the whole 'barbecue' imagery of that Aura performance reinforces that concept.

Essence 155 Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 (edited) I'm so proud of her. She's so self-possessed (in the truest sense of the phrase) and connected with her artistry right now. I love how this harkens back to Gaga of yesteryear but is also vulnerable, bare, and unfettered in a way only 2024 Gaga could be. True evolution with an undercurrent of nostalgia.

llemesm 985 Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 I was wondering why the blonde Gaga who fights her in the street was dressed like that when they could put any other outfit, and I remembered the performances singing MANiCURE (Live from the Lady Gaga and Muppets Holiday Spectacular 2013), and also some other similar outfits she wore at the ArtRave while singing MANiCURE. Crazy idea, but maybe it's her way to neglect her way of thinking back then ("You're the medicine --- I need to heal the way you make me feel" / "I'm gon' be manicured" / "Man cure! Heal me, cause I'm addicted to love") in the way that there's no better way of healing that facing your inner demons instead of looking for a man to heals you from whatever you're going through. Maybe that's why in the video she is fighting against that Gaga and at the end she seems to reconciliate with the "monster" that is chasing her. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEANUS 12,409 Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 I’m sure it’s been said that there is choreography in this video, but cmon yall lol. The whole second verse is extremely and intricately choreographed. There’s soooooo much blocking and creativity that has to go into making scenes like that work. Parris (the rumored choreographer) is actually pretty notably talented and versed in THAT type of body movement.

BeyonkaAte 165 Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 1 hour ago, Robo Ga said: for some reason it was actually creepier/scarier to see it filmed in broad daylight. like seeing all those images in the stark bright light of day. and the emptiness of the suburb combined with that gave it such an eerie feel... VERY that ! i had the same thought and absolutely loved how eerie it was to have all this action unfold in broad daylight. Gave it a very "Signs" (2002) vibe 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also feel like, with the choice to film in broad daylight, she is making a statement about mental health and how mental illness doesn't just exist in dark/lonely places, but it's a battle you need to fight in broad daylight, exposed, fully lit... especially in Gaga's experience, where she has to fight her demons out in the open with the world watching.
