The Ten Most Amazing Things From the New Lady Gaga Music Video
By James Brady RyanNovember 10th, 2009, 5:06 pmComments (15)Guys, I don't even know. Can you really "list" something that clearly comes from beyond the borders of our dimension, and may not even adhere to the concepts of mathematics as we know them? YES!
So, the video for Lady Gaga's new single, "Bad Romance," is out. (Working title: "Bad Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn.") You can watch it here, and then, once the screaming is done, you can join me for a list of the best/scariest moments from the video itself.
10. Hello Gaga:
Fun fact: this is how Lady Gaga actually sees other people.
9. PETA is going to be pissed:
I'm not gonna lie: I kind of want that coat.
8. A trip to the moon:
What does it say when I see Lady Gaga and a troupe of dancers impersonating a group of aliens from a 1902 French sci-fi film and think, "Yes, that makes sense"?
7. Mistress of the Dark:
Elvira gave a recent interview about how she had searched for a replacement, but couldn't find the right girl. I HAVE A SUGGESTION! That is some straight-up corny-gothic humor right there.
6. A geleé of organic fava beans and a nice bottle of Cristal:
In case you needed to know what a Eurotrash Hannibal Lecter looked like.
5. This cat is the Devil:
1. Don't get it wet. 2. Don't feed it after midnight.
4. Species 3:
Gay men can't resist her. Mankind may not survive her.
3. Please let this be CGI:
Gollum?
2. Sunglasses to replace your inferior "emotions" with the cool ration of wires and steel for:
Number five is alive!
1. I give up:
I think I'm drunk now.

The video is so much better with no sound.
that video was a visual orgy. LOVED IT!
Gaga needs to do a duets album with Marilyn Manson. Those would be the greatest music videos ever!
Okay, I can finally admit that I kinda want to be Lady Gaga. Except I'm with Zodd on listening without the sound... just as a matter of habit, I try not to listen to pop music. It can only ruin the visuals.
Does she know that she is not a good singer and can be replaced with any number of pretty young things?
she's not trying to be a pretty young thing, she's trying to be awesome. and no, she can't be replaced, she writes and produces almost everything she does.
"she writes and produces almost everything she does."
So she gets bonus points for effort, but I still find her trite and lackluster. I really wanted to like her, but still find her "meh."
I can definitely see how she wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea. But I can't help but respond well to her particular brand of crazy. This is probably much more excusable than my listening to "Party In The USA."
"This is probably much more excusable than my listening to “Party In The USA.”"
Good point.
I don't think she's terrible, just over-hyped. Of course, that could be seen as a brilliant send-up of the modern music industry...
I have tried ignoring Gaga. She was surprisingly good on SNL so now I htink she's a real artist even if she's not my cup of tea.
Great design, editing and visuals from the artists hired to work on this video. Horrible music. Horrible, horrible music.
LOVE her or SHUT IT!!!!!
Wow that was some painfully horrid music, how many poppers does it take to make that dreck tolerable???
Great post. The internets is pleased.
i loved this video
