    I just think it's awesome that she made a 5 minute video, and the whole thing is interesting!

    Plus I want to learn the weird awesome awkward dancing. #ladygagabadromancevideo

    This might be a really dumb question...

    Her music? Enh. She herself? I think she's a blast. (For some reason I might be biased because she is my age and she, too, went to a Catholic high school...a bigger, better, more prestigious one than mine, to boot, but somehow I thought that just made her more interesting.)

    How much credit does she get for the videos? For every awesome video, there are shitty ones...I guess now I know that Leighton Meester's video (she's gorgeous, but that video is...bluh) not simply something a producer/director/writer/whatever MADE her do, giving her a limited influence over it?

    I mean, realistically, I'm guessing artists have creative control over their videos and want them to sync up with their songs....but my question is how much credit or blame does the actual artist get for the video, beyond starring in it and writing the song to go with it? #ladygagabadromancevideo

    I want Lady Gaga to stop making videos until I've figured out what in the hell a 'disco stick' is. She just moves too fast for me. She's so space age.

    @nex0s: Between the Bowie references and her penchant for costumed villiany, I think I can safely say that Lady Gaga is a member of the Guild of Calamitous Intent, though I don't think she's Dr. Mrs. The Monarch. .... if she was, she'd be wearing that butterfly hat that was a Snap Judgment earlier today. #ladygagabadromancevideo

    Love it, and her.

    Apparently, the subtext is that fancy vodka makes you wear a colander fashioned of chandelier parts as a hat, while doing a dance that I call The Scratching Kitty.

    I plan to do this in front of my Grandma at Thanksgiving.

    Awesome. #ladygagabadromancevideo

    @bwbcg: The "Where The Wild Things Are" latex hat/mask is cool.

    But nothing beats the sparkin' bra at the end. I don't even smoke, but I'd light up a cig from it no problem. #ladygagabadromancevideo

    That is complete absolute visual majesty (and the tune ain't bad either). I have loved this woman from the first several bars of Poker Face, and this new one is amazing. Ms Germanotta is fearless in both the visual and musical fields. We should also give credit to collaborator and producer RedOne (Nadir Khayat), the Moroccan/Swedish songwriter/producer/synthesizer maniac who for the past year has been injecting European technopop into the States in the form of all Gaga's hits as well key ones by Sean Kingston and Cascada. The Gaga/RedOne collaboration is almost scary. Who would have thought that 2009 would be a good year for dance music? #ladygagabadromancevideo

    Also, one of my friends said this today on Twitter and I think it had a good ring to it:

    God, I really want to love her, but her music is as forgettable as she is memorable. She needs to team up with Timbaland or something.

    I said something similar on ONTD, but I think the most amazing thing about this video is that it shows that -- post-TRL and "Making the Video" and over-hyped World Premieres -- someone still gives a damn about making a good music video, and that's awesome. Music videos aren't nearly as influential as they used to be; they won't be shown several times a day on MTV (or even several times a week) and they won't be a major drive for album sales. The fact that Gaga actually CARES enough to make an incredible video for her fans -- regardless of what it does for her -- is what matters most here. #ladygagabadromancevideo

    True, all kinds of crazy shit. Some day, she may even decide to make a song that you'd want to hear more than once. Then again, so many of other people are doing that... it wouldn't be that special. #ladygagabadromancevideo

    @Niko Bellic: But are they doing it with masks and lobster shoes? And very unattractive sunglasses? Gaga has that market cornered. Perhaps because no one else wants to wear razor-blade sunglasses. #ladygagabadromancevideo
