Darus313 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Okay I just saw the new Video for Lady Gaga..... A L E J A N D R O To many thinks were running through my mind when i watched the video. First off - i like the song.... Yes i will admit it in public. Great dance beat - great video - smart woman on marketing herself. Lady Gaga is not letting her 15 minutes of fame go with out a fight..... But i will have to say the following. I could not get > This is Halloween by Danny Elfman < song out of my mind mixed with Alejandro? So on that note - I felt that Tim Burton Directed the video and was inspired by Janet Jackson video "Rhythm Nation"? Yes I feel that Lady GAGA is grabbing her innovation from the Gothic / Fetish scene for the visual inspiration - watching her previous videos prior to BAD Romance - they were dull boring and nothing special. Her new direction - i don't mind. If she is trying to grab attention - she is doing a great a job. Okay i gave my 2 cents. Let the comments fly in now...... D P.S - The military S1 dress uniform is big out here in the clubs - so the next guy i see wearing this outfit i will have the Urge to call him Alejandro - knowing myself when i drink...

Eevee Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 I actually dislike this song a lot. But. I will say I am extremely jealous of Gaga's body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the eternal Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Because my workplace believes in torture, I have to listen to the same 15 songs piped in all day. Alejandro is one of them. I think her body sucks. (I have no interest in seeing a pop star with the frame of a 12-yr old boy.) I think her music sucks. And although I agree that she apes alternative culture and performance art, that just make me more pissed off that she gets the credit, and unlike NIN, which actually shone a light on Industrial for a minute or two, lady gagas music just rakes in cash for Lady Gaga. As for this song, I hated it the first time when it was called Don't Turn Around http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RYo0JpT410&feature=related but I hated it less than the version above by Gaga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerdcore Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) does anyone not see the madonna erocitca video in this?? and /or like a prayer ?? also to much thought of german wartime... sorry the song is good but she likes to copy everyone else .. IMO there is creative difference.. then there is crazy mental needs help creative difference.. she has gone that way... also what is witht the fake penis!!!!!!!!!! ps.. the eternal- hubby said the same thing about the the ace of base song in "alejandro" . Also her body looks like a white crack whores body.. she use to have a body and curves when "the fame cd " came out. no one on that album wants to work with her anymore..

Msterbeau Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Danny Elfman should never be mentioned in the same sentence/paragraph/thread as Lady Gaga. He's awesome and she's a ripoff artist. Wait... Take artist out of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyger Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Two things... I prefer the Machine-gun Jubblies from Austin Powers better.... and can anyone say "gang bang"? Ok... Maybe three. But I'm just repeating myself from another thread, but I'm so SO glad I have a boy... I would be SO worried if I had a girl and she watched this crap.

TygerLili Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 I like the song, but I do think she sounds a lot like Ace of Base (and by extension, ABBA) in this song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destroit Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) When I was ten years old it was 1995. In the far away and now distant realm of 1995 all individuals with a prepubescent cooch listened to Ace of Base where I was raised. If you didn't, then you obviously had a weiner. When I first heard this song I was ten years old again. I even thought to call up my childhood best friend, because she would be the only one who would understand my excitement, but as the song ended I found out that Ace of Base did not have a reunion album. It was Lady Gaga. WTF....?! : I guess Bad Romance was her last good song. This video LOOKS really cool, but it's all similar imagery as to what Madonna pulled off in the 80s. But, you'll also notice that her and Madonna are practically the only two pop artists on my last.fm tag cloud . When I was ten years old it was 1995.

Destroit Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 and can anyone say "gang bang"? So...? Sooooo...wrong for girls to sleep with multiple guys at one time but it's been okay for one man to sleep with multiple girls for how long...? I'm not picking on you, just trying to understand the reason behind this. I'm always on the prowl for double-standards when it comes to gender because it's been my life's work trying to abolish those types of silly notions . So...?

~Tszura~ Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Danny Elfman should never be mentioned in the same sentence/paragraph/thread as Lady Gaga. He's awesome and she's a ripoff artist. Wait... Take artist out of that. Thank you!! I like the song, but I do think she sounds a lot like Ace of Base (and by extension, ABBA) in this song. When I heard this, I thought of "Fernando," too, lol! I'm not going to lie, there is something I like about Lady Gaga, and I think its her balls. I don't like her twiggy ass, I hate how she addresses herself in the third person, and her overall rip-off style makes me guffaw, but for some reason, I still dance to her at CC. lol Hmmmmmm, now I want to see her do a video with Jeffree Star......I think they would eat each other in the end, though lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FIKs9UBGWs It will be interesting to see how Lady Gaga continues over the next few years. I feel like she's giving out the "goods" all at once, and there will be nowhere left to go with it all sooner than later. When the shock value wears off, where oh where will Lady gaga go?

This thread went from fail to epic win! That song so effectively summarizes my worldview! It's my new favorite song. Oh, and Tzura, I still can't stand Lady Gaga, but if they played Get Away with Murder at CC I would dance to it in spite of myself. Jefree Star's music is better and he's twice the woman Gaga will ever be. Edited June 11, 2010 by the eternal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im all up for people doing what they want to do.... But just not in a music video where teenage girls and boys think this is what happens in everyday life....
