Ever since Bad Romance was released in October I’ve been continually listening to it. I think the song a fantastic piece of pop music. The music video? Its sheer genius. If you’ve only seen it on MTV, its edited shoddily due to heavy censorship.

Yep, that’s the trademark razor shades.

make up

with Lady Gaga, there’s no such thing as TOO MUCH make-up

You can watch the official vid here on Youtube (sorry, embedding isn’t allowed).

I’m a big fan of videos that tell something, either a storyline, a message, or some contextual meaning. So what ON EARTH is Lady Gaga trying to convey in the lengthy video?! Well, after watching it countless times (and annoying my colleagues in the process) and reading some of the hints she has dropped (like here) I’m beginning to see what she’s trying to get across, its actually tied to the what she’s saying in the song.

Anime Eyes!

Given the popularity of the singer and this particular single, there’s obviously no shortage of people trying to interpret the meaning of the images – ranging from the mild ones by dream analysis experts to extreme interpretations involving the Illuminati and occultic signs.

Well sometimes its better to just enjoy the song as it is, polar bear fur coat and all. As she says, walk, walk, fashion baby

    Illuminati/occultic signs – I begin to feel interested with this angle of opinion. Well, I saw pyramids, and some goat heads in the video. Every media content you see in the TV/Internet/magazines are carefully constructed for various purposes, from propaganda to entertainment.

    But overall I like that song. I’m a lil caught up with the starting rhythms.

  2. simon Said,

    actually according to the article, these goat head symbols and pyramids are recurrent in her earlier vids too
