Because, having already run roughshod through the pulpy pop culture.
We also must make our own video clips to counter ones like Gaga’s. It is a very glamorous, very art-y thing and anyone expecting a video like her last one should give up that hope right now. We do not need to attack lady Gaga and protest about it but we must firstly take the advice of lukechapter12 and pray. It is very important that we come to understand this hidden symbolism and meaning behind songs and clips by artists such as Lady Gaga and stand up and tell the truth. Please read this post and watch the video.
Why does she cover one eye and have inverted crosses on her clothing? Why is she dressed as a nun in a red habit? But what can we say? By now, she's certainly earned it.“I don’t want the 5 dollars in your pocket, I want your soul” And to that point, "Alejandro" is a work that is singularly, 100 percent her, arty and obtuse and, yes, even a little self-indulgent. (She is, after all, still Lady Gaga.)Īnd of course, there are instances that will probably make the Catholic church squirm, scenes that turn sexual standards on their collective ears, and lots of shots that remind you of Madonna's ultra-glam "Vogue" video (or, really, any of her work with director David Fincher). well, except for the part where she's wearing a bra with assault-rifle barrels attached to it. Lady GaGa - Poker face (HD Music video ) Caleb1982 T10:03:14+00:00. It's all fabulously decadent, yet in keeping with the feel of the clip, oddly restrained. As she told Larry King last week, there's also a "homoerotic military theme" to the thing - though most of said military attire seems to have been influenced (again) by German soldiers, this time from the Nazi era. The fashion runs the gamut from Steampunk-lite (check Gaga's goggles), to S&M, not to mention a few scenes in which LG is dressed as a (sort of) nun.
Lady Gaga - The Edge Of Glory (Official Music Video). Lady Gaga - Yo and I (Official Music Video). there are shots here that look as if they were ripped from the wall of a gallery. Lady Gaga - Born This Way (Official Music Video). There's art in nearly every frame, and Klein's eye brings to mind the work of Tarsem (R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religion," if you're keeping score), particularly in the way he photographs the still scenes: placing actors just so, moving an elbow here or a chin there, getting the angles and the lighting just right. Of course, in working with acclaimed fashion photographer (and proud outsider) Steven Klein, Gaga has created a world that, while oppressive, also looks great. Try as she might, she just can't seem to find the strength to rise up. Caligari," "Metropolis" or "M," anything featuring Marlene Dietrich - there's an artful level of moroseness to the entire thing, be it in the opening funeral scene, the bleak staging of several dance sequences, or even the sheer amount of time Gaga spends sprawled across a bed. And much like the films of the Weimar era - expressionist stuff like "The Cabinet of Dr. If playback doesn't begin shortly, try restarting your device. And while it's not fair to compare the two clips - since they have nothing in common outside of being released consecutively - "Alejandro" is about as far from "Telephone" as she could get.Įschewing the hyperkinetic look, feel and pacing of the latter, "Alejandro" is instead influenced by the smoky, darkly decadent art and fashion of 1920s Weimar Germany (the artistically fertile but politically and economically difficult era, depicted in the 1970s film "Cabaret," that preceded Hitler's rise to power), all carefully crafted close-ups, languorously smoked cigarettes and oppressively cut costumes.
