See that's the thing about Lady Gaga, her videos are really aesthetically pleasing to people who like to think, and really aesthetically pleasing to people who don't like to think. So much so that it almost makes you think they mean something because they push buttons that activate responses in different people whether it's 'hot girl!' or 'hey look nun symbolism!'. But watching her stuff a lot and with my basic distrust of the music industry, I sort of think that really her videos don't mean much. They're just trying to sell product. I mean what is the new video really saying? I thought up a lot of stuff, but it's not really Lady Gaga saying that, it's Lady Gaga's videos pushing my buttons and manipulating me so I think she's saying that. I'm not saying all art needs to have a moral or have something to say, but I think really what this video (and most of her stuff) is saying is 'look pretty things! Sexy woman doing scary things, America! Now she's in underwear! You should buy this. Hey, look, steampunk, you guys like that right?'
