Judas, the video

[joshBTW]

Yes, yes I know there's a official thread and that half of you think it's annoying making so many threads about Gaga. Hope you guys like it.

love this song! i dont really get the video. I know its christianity & the whole betrayal by Judas, but some of the visuals & metaphors I am not quite understanding.. overall tho, it IS Gaga, so I like it. I'm sure there's a method to her madness. rated it a 5 +++

Jesus is hot. Is he Puerto Rican?

The song is horribly constructed. The verse/lyric word placement is elementary. The chorus is a little catchier and better put togther but still... generic.

The movie on the other hand....

Oh yes a pseudo-sacrilegious movie with the juxtaposition of different shots that use water as a motif. Reeeeeeaaaaal original.... In the middle of the song? Now that's just stupid. Like the lipstick gun. And the cheesy dance moves. Whoever directed this is ridiculous. I mean if you want to be all controversial, then go all out... not this tame half assed crap.

As much as I dislike her, I'll admit that her previous movies were of much higher quality.


Guy who poured beer over her butt was hot. I think that was Judas.

The video looks like a combination of Lovegame, Bad Romance, and Telephone...

A big meh from me. This isn't insulting enough. Judas making out with (a preferably Latino) Jesus, yes. A pope (Nazi uniform, duh) with possibly underage male dancers, yes. This, no. And not enough nudity.

 

[AbnormalDann]

I knew I recognized Judas from some movies. Love the song, not so in love with the video, but I'd watch it for Judas.

I really liked the video - found it very visually appealing but not really what I expected. Gaga looks amazing in it though. I agree that it is a mixture of Bad Romance, Telephone, and Love Game, which are all great videos.

I do like this video though a lot more than Born This Way. I rated it a 4 out of 5.

From the very funny Michael K:

My fav. part: "It sounds like Mel Gibson condemning the Jews while getting tasered in the ass."


Blah to me the song is better than the video.

I do like this video though a lot more than Born This Way. I rated it a 4 out of 5.

I agree, "Judas" is the much better song and video, I really enjoyed it.

I'm just a Holy Fool, oh baby he's so cruel
But still I'm in love with Judas, baby
I'm just a Holy Fool, oh baby he's so cruel
But still I'm in love with Judas, baby

Very infectious, find myself singing this all the time.

I really liked the video!

Terrible song.
Terrible video.
+Terrible artist.
Sucks.

 

[Scottyboi]

well it was classically weird in true Gaga fashion...i'll give i that

This song...there are parts i *hate* and parts i *love* which hey...kinda funny considering the subject of the song.

the music isn't that bad in my opinion, but some of the dancing seriously made me lawl. I mean 1:55's arm roll? really?

Also didn't like her outfits though I usually don't like those =x (cept the red bikini, that was kinda hot)

I also get all the rebirth/water symbolism in the middle of the song...but it kinda fucks with it...

song on its own? B/B+

the music video? D+/C-

 

[Gomaki]

wow, I'm loving the reverse bell curve going on in the poll! we are pretty extreme in our opinions it seems.

 

[joshBTW]

^^ It's always like that when it's about Gaga. Seems like the hate her-love her thing is kinda spot on with her. The good news is that the "love her" people always seem to be more

 

[joshBTW]

Well, all her videos do have more likes than dislikes on YouTube, that has to mean something

 

[J-23]

She needs to cool it with the lame-ass, derivative, half-baked "concept" videos.

Sure, she struck gold with Telephone, but it's only been downhill from there. She makes brainless dance music -- she's even admitted that she takes only a few minutes to write each song -- and her videos should be reflective of that. She should go back to the flashy, frivolous style of Poker Face and Beautiful Dirty Rich instead of continually cramming this pseudo-artsy garbage down her fans' throats. As Juan from 1 girl 5 gays said, although she's trying to be visually evocative of Bjork, her music is pure S Club 7.

In a recent Tweet, she described Judas as "an archetype fantasy film: Darkness casted when standing in The Light. Destiny is a siamese force." What, the, fuck? I dare any Gaga fans to claim that that statement is anything more than laughably pretentious nonsense.

 

[Callum]

It's funny, I like Judas, fucking hate the horrible video. I hated Born This Way, liked the video.

What a hit-and-miss our dear Lady Gaga has become...

 

[joshBTW]

I'm not saying people's opinions are right or wrong, I'm saying most people like her even though opinions about her are pretty extreme and polarizing

 

[CoolguyAT]

So does "hold it against me" which is AWFUL

Not to get too off topic but man Britney really missed the target with that one. Love the song "hold it against me" but I couldn't even finish watching the video because it was so bad.
