Karl 3,250 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 It's insane that it has 100k likes already, Bad Romance has 700k and that has 500 million views, Telephone has 300k and has 172 k views. There must be a good few million already for 100k likes tbh I know, it reminded me of the great gatsby gold frames. But they did it so much better. There was more depth and feel to it. Thats the style I meant though :') Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slayer 9,227 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) It's EVERYTHING I hoped it would be. This is officially my favourite video. I personally think it's also her best video. To say it's a masterpiece would be understating it. This video is her magnum opus of videos. The Bad Romance vid just looks "little" in comparison. Edited August 19, 2013 by etron I love judas SO MUCH but I canʹt look like a copycat of JLO!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
clamchwder 0 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) It looks, in many ways, like her live shows; like a theatre production. I think that's intentional. I think this "cheap-2D-prop"-effect is intended and its a stylistic device from Popart. Maybe its not my kind of thing. I get the flat art thing, but it only worked for the scenes she was hung w the wings. Owell. Haha i really dk what's missing from Applause's video, for example comparing applause and alejandro, they have almost the same type of video look but alejandro looks way more expensive, and its set, camera work was crisp and way less tacky?? (although also empty studio w black background) Another comparison is the Fame perfume campaign video. Same black background w props but WAY WAY WAY more expensive looking.

It's not expensive-looking on purpose I guess but on the same time it's so complex and high-fashion only a major artist could have a budget for. I love it, but I see your point.

calmar 22,037 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 With the idea that the current era's art perspective is gaining meaning from what others see, this video nails it. Personally, it seems like an exposé of different fields of performance begging for Applause - the classical art era of Venus de Botticelli, 1920s magicians, parisian mimes, inventors of the mid-millennium, the poor débutante, freak shows of the 1800s, and so on. Gaga embodies all of these styles throughout the video - she is every icon. 俺の勝利は揺るぎない Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viola 386 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 The more I watch it the more I start to fall in love with it. It's definitely a grower for me. Pantsu Nugeru Mon | Have Some Bi Rain Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than what i pointed out, i do like it. The references and some of the character visuals are stunning. Major love for the swan head, mattress stefani scene + the laser purple tunnel witchlady. Epic stuff! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopMayhem 0 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Honestly, that video was so bizarre that i couldn't enjoy it It's EVERYTHING I hoped it would be. This is officially my favourite video. I personally think it's also her best video. To say it's a masterpiece would be understating it. This video is her magnum opus of videos. The Bad Romance vid just looks "little" in comparison. What the ****? now you know that's some bull****. Bad Romance remains her most artitic and flawless video of hers and this mess couldn't even try to touch it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
