Jeff Kunst 0 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I know it has a meaning, but the average person won't understand this...THAT'S the problem. I bet some in the audience were in shock that she did that... Unless you heard her explain the song or even know what the song is about...you STILL probably wouldn't know why she did what she did... Why does it matter what the average person thinks? She's trying to push us beyond that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luv u Sum 2,377 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I agree. She should never do a pretty performance of swine. I needs to be uncomfortable and hard to watch. It needs puke and bulls. it needs a version of gaga that is hurt and in pain. Because that is what it is about. I hope this becomes a single! Because i want her to go on an award show and get puked on. and she needs to rip open a pig on stage. she needs to perform that song with every last ounce of energy in her body. This is one of the most intense songs she has ever made. and she needs to show it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zexion_armando 241 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 We keep going to rape (some people heard her say rage, but its hard to say) The way Swine is, I think its better explained as a metaphor for pretty much any sort of dark manipulations, rather than just dress it as rape. Makes it seems more encompassing of any number of issues she has had. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retep 0 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 of the top of my head Papparazzi VMAs Poker Face Grammys Born This Way grammys You and I VMAs strictly by your description, how were those different? I think what was meant is that the average listener or viewer won't look into the subtext of a video or song, they take it at face value and remember that. For example almost everyone can list the 'Meat Dress' but not as many are aware that it was a social commentary on DADT. Similarly the Paparazzi performance for many is known as the moment Gaga just 'killed' herself on stage, not as many people are aware it was a social commentary. They just see the surface, they don't 'get' the intention of the art performed. That being said thank you so much for exploring it further and letting the message be more understood by being brave and sharing your story with us, I sincerely hope the best for you OP, thank you again. I just hope more people can see this and understand what was possibly being expressed rather than it simply being about the 'vomit' itself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
