I loved/hated it.

 

Some of it had some really good ideas and work, and others were just so floppy and bad.

 

Basically the entire Venus portion was just pointlessly awful. GUY saved a lot of it like the Takeover part, but really.

 

Too many ideas crammed into something that it didn't need.

 

#JusticeforVenus.

 

nothing floppy about this video

and you got a taste of venus

I appreciate the imagery, and the dance scenes really make the video, but it is still very disjointed and wacky. Why the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cameo? Minecraft? Jesus? Gandhi?

You Little Monsters get stupid when someone expresses even the slightest negativity. :manicure:

idk about Gandhi, but Jesus was betrayed by his student, Judas. It's like Gaga was betrayed / taken advantage. Thats what i think.

Can i have the name of that guy?

I've read on Twitter that his name was Connor Breen? Or maybe it's on the long ass credits and I didn't even bother to read it.  :P

 

Anyway, it's first time in forever that I instantly got the message behind Gaga's video!  :party: Though the scene with the Real Housewives and Andy was a little awkward, IMO. But overall, I loved it.. 

 

P.S Gaga in jeans tho.  :heat: I wonder if Taylor has already seen this.  :hor:

 Every time you post something about Gaga it's negative,  this isn't the first time and it won't be the last. I don't think I've seen anything positive come from you, unless it's about Katy Perry. Why are you even here?  :manicure:

[first impressions- I'm still letting it sink in]

 

I like it for the most part. Some of the shots are actually pretty incredible, and I appreciate Gaga taking the director's helm again. The scenery, imagery, and panning shots are amazing.

 

I'm not sure how I feel about the scenes with the Real Housewives. I understand that that whole segment, along with the Andy Cohen inclusion, is meant to be ridiculous and cheesy, but the Housewives scene was pretty odd. Cohen's scene was odd, too, but somehow it worked.

 

The scenes I did like, though, were the beginning and ending scenes. The image of Gaga rising out of the ashes amidst all of the chaos, and her retaliating against the industry, were amazing scenes. I would have preferred the whole video to be based around that, but overall I liked it. Not perfect, definitely, but nonetheless incredible.

 

The 11 minute timing got me excited, though. Long ass credits :sweat:

She didn't wore the bubble blowing dress, it would have fit perfectly when she comes out of the pool :cry: Anyway, I really like it! I love how she incorporate art and pop, the beginning for me was the best part, and the choreo is amazing.

The Secret Society is known as G.U.Y. - girl under you. She's under you (no longer at the top of the music industry) but she's in control and powerful. Gaga and her idea of society - you don't need to be on top to be powerful in the artistic sphere, in relationships and in the music industry.

 

The Price of Commercialism is the death of ART

Gaga has crash landed. She was a soaring phoenix during the incipient years of her rise in the pop industry. With her streaks of number 1s on the pop charts, that night she won 10 VMAs and winning multiple Grammys. She was also a cultural juggernaut.

 

However, after Born This Way, an injury and being cast out, she is left to die by those who only used her for money. The know that she is a money maker, however they don't care about her. ART lies DEAD under the money of the men of the music industry. Pop reigns supreme. 

 

But A hybrid can withstand these things

Gaga's struggle to her feet reflects her solitude in the battle to be herself in a world where men only want to use her for money. 

 

Venus, love and the need to rebirth

Neptune Pool is a cesspool for creativity. The HAUS and embryonic creative space bring her and heal her mind and soul - giving her the opportunity to rebirth from a safe space. It is both a funeral to lay to rest the pain of the past and a state of rebirth.

While she's rebirthing and absent from the music industry, it is taken over by RHOBH like artists - A commentary on mindless money making hollow music

tumblr_n2v9x90MuC1ql5yr7o1_500.gif

Appear awkward, glitz and glam while faux playing instruments. It is a commentary on shoving mindless and substance-less music down people's throats. If I'm rich, if I can afford it, put me in a music video and make me look musical and professional. It is intentionally awkward. They would know that the blonde lady is playing the chello in the wrong position.

Dance scene, fashion, scenic crane shots - what a music video should be 

 

Room full of rebirthed "Saints" "Philosophers" "Musical Icons"/ Cloning

There is a reference to Minecraft "/gamemode ARTPOP" (and previously Andy Cohen and the RHOBH - a show Gaga has professed to love). These together could represent elements of Gaga's hobbies during the time of her injury. They are interspersed as comical and interesting parts of her personal life. 

 

They take the DNA of Jesus (Love, Powerful, Wisdom), Ghandi, (Love, Wisdom), MJ (Talent, Love) and create a society of those who serve art (men in black suits). It is interesting to note that Ghandi, MJ and Jesus were all betrayed by the people they served. There is a duality here, Gaga could be talking about the love and compassion she spreads with her Little Monsters. 

 

Taking over the Industry

tumblr_n2v90eVfpu1qdmb8eo2_500.gif

 

Gaga blasts money to distract the money hungry music machine. With that opportunity, she uses it to push art, love and compassion into the industry. She removes the management from before. The reign of the money machine is over. 

 

tumblr_n2v5km4bCx1qjeg9yo1_500.gif

 

The world is now safe for her little monsters and people to leave the castle. For ART and POP to belong together.
