Bad Romance (Filter That, Baby Bump That Track)
// 4th December
Everyone sits very still listening to the music. The music is stopped, Lady GaGa freaks out. In a bath house, slippery-looking, white, blind beings hatch from pods. Lady GaGa sits in a bath in her shoes, with earbuds in, which incidentally, can be bought online. Lady GaGa, considered an endangered species and hunted for her eyes, is abducted form the bath and forced to drink Vodka (it has to be Vodka, right?). Her pain is highlighted by some kind of strange Christina Aguilera poses, with tears. She’s held in a cage, and forced to entertain a man with a beard made of solid gold. Devising a plan, she seduces seedy Russian golden-bearded man, thus… winning his trust. With a brief stop off to sell a million records. She distinguishes herself from the other dancers, who look dressed for synchronised swimming, by performing a trick with diamonds in what appears to be some Matrix meets James Bond episode which also demonstrates her interest in space travel and Tim Burton films. Dressed in a bear she just caught and skinned, she approaches Mr. Goldbeard’s bed. Tim-Burton-film-GaGa pulls the trigger, and the bed goes up in flames, engulfing her tormentor. She pauses to pose in front of the inferno for press photos. Unfortunately a happy ending is not forthcoming, as Lady GaGa later succumbs to drugs, and pathetically clings to her one trophy (being remembered for her clothing that spurts fireworks), while in all other senses being indistinguishable from Amy Winehouse.
I can’t decide if it’s the best or the worst music video I have ever seen.

It’s not the best or the worst, but it is on the bad side of my grouping of music videos.

This could explain why Lady GaGa is number 1 on your last.fm
It’s very… stereotypical in a lot of ways – particularly the group of men leering at the women… and the women throwing lady gaga at them… That parts weird.
Heck, the whole thing is weird- but then, would you expect any less from her?

On another note- does anyone else think she looks like Nicky Webster in some of the shots? (notably curly haired in the bath)?
