Loved the video! 8/10

Wished the song was actually good and there was some sort of connection between the lyrics and the visuals. Her production value is always outstanding

Sabrina is really doing everything “for the gaze”. We got a Desth Becomes Her video and now this Rocky Horror. I know RH is not just for gays but we love some camp!

Am I the only one who heard "chicken time!" at 1:00 when that voice blasted out? I'm still hearing it! :sharon:

Video is alright and camp fun for Halloween but took a bit too long to begin. I didn't expect the funk/disco route but I definitely prefer the beat to the actual lyrics. Tears as a euphemism doesn't make sense because the lyrics are about being happy and turned on so why would she bring up tears? The only way I've heard this joke used properly is: "I laughed so hard that tears rolled down my legs." That one makes sense because you can cry from laughing too much and that can lead to peeing. But when has getting wet ever been referred to as tears running down your thighs? Good beat, meh lyrics. Opened so well but when the first line was: "I get wet at the thought of you being a responsible guy" I rolled my eyes. I wish we'd stop praising men for doing what they should be doing and getting turned on by them doing something non-sexual.

The song is literally poking fun at this behavior

How? The video is inspired by Rocky Horror, which is when a couple's car breaks down, they go to this creepy house to ask to use a phone and get taken into a weird, hedonistic world whereupon they discover their sexuality and are stripped of their innocence. And she's in lingerie, pole dancing and generally appealing to the male gaze throughout. Nowhere in the song does she reject this or provide irony or sarcasm.

Do you struggle with sarcasm?

Because that's like Sabrina's entire schtick. 

Like her entire persona is built around baby talking men and treating them like idiots. She even references the joke that she's a serial killer targeting men at the end of the video for this song.

I feel like you're just not in on the joke.
