I don't like it at all... And honestly it seems kinda delusional that all her fans in the comments are saying such stupid things like "try and understand it", "it's simple and amazing", blablabla... It's like she can throw in any kind of thrash -- which this video is -- and they'll all love it.
To me, it sounds even grothesque that someone like Argos says he likes it, as he disliked masterpieces like Snowfalls. Anyway, to each his own!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ... But I still think it sucks. No offense, though. |

I would like it if there wasn't so hype about the original filmed video before.
They were supposed to do some crazy dramatic (GaGa, obviously) video with a bunch of stuff and she was going to be a MERMAID. But then apparently some shiz happened so last minute GaGa just filmed herself in a city set. It's quite sad because all of the sets the production crew worked on and technical stuff to get her mermaid thingy working, and of course the cast/extras had to be scrapped. The video we ended up with *looks* cool but I don't find much interest in it for it's 5 minute span. It's refreshing though, since it's more simple and humble. I'd probably like it more if she wore her long wavy wig instead. I love her hair like that. |

Well, 'Edge Of Glory' didn't need one of her oh so meaningful fancy videos, which only completely distract from the music. Reduced to the essential, the song and the character, lets you concentrate on her and the music. Choreography, ambiente, camera work, light - everything simple but well done, without all the pseudo-artistic gimmicks she usually prefers. Sorry that I disappoint people, but I'm no sucker of clips when Gaga tells us the history of American independency or the foundation of The Anglican Church or something like that. |

Argos, I didn't mean it needed to be as scandalous as her previous ones to be good... I actually really dislike Judas and Born This Way. Just WAY too much of a drama involved. Not my taste. What bothers me is; people love anything she does. This Edge of Glory... The song is not bad, but it doesn't appeal to me, and the video... Well, a video is supposed to be beatiful, at least, appealing to people in a way or another... It may not have a story, just being beautiful saves it. This Gaga's video is fugly. She's not trying to look pretty or at least acceptable, she's trying to look like a freak. Which she is. And which can be totally cool, but she insists on making it UGLY. I kinda like the dark purple atmosphere in the video, but it's not well used. It's just the same all the time, it's ludicrous. It's not something the eyes can melt for. Something simple, like NOTHING CAMPARES 2 U, can be awesome, too. There's no emotion in this Gaga video to me.
Again, I'm not saying it needs to be absurd, I just think it needs to be cool. Paparazzi is one of the more watchable to me, since we're talking Gaga, but t.A.T.u.'s videos are MUCH more appealing. And they managed to catch a lot of attention even if they were not really famous anymore. Anyway, that's a personal opinion I wanted to share. I was just completely shocked that even a person I really respect opinion-wise liked something that, in my opinion, is garbage. |

See, that's what I'm talking about! All her "little monsters" worship her, no matter what. Even Talyubittu, another very known Gaga fan around here, surrenders to the MAGICAL new Gaga video!
First, I'm not saying she should WANT to look beautiful... Beauty just happens, you know. And it has many faces. You should learn to read a word beyond its literal meanings. Your "do you know LG" statement is so stretched out I won't even get started with it. About substance, haha, I was just using and example, which means nothing. If I wanted to really discuss the video, I would not have many other options, though, considering how deadly monotonous it freaking is. About Snowfalls, I was obviously joking, it's no masterpiece, but it's obviously a better choice of entertainment than this new Gaga's rubbish. The difference between the two of us is: I can respect other people's opinion, even if they let me down. |

This is what fandom is about, not so bad I would say. Concerning me - I dislike American pop 'with all my heart and soul', but there is still something here and there which I can't condemn, some Gaga for example. To make it clear, I didn't say that I love, adore or worship 'Edge Of Glory', originally it was worth two words 'Like it', not more (which means: I don't dislike it and I'm not indifferent to it. Anything else is overinterpretation).

Gaga is stingy with her true emotions as a whole. Some artists have their problems with sharing their soul publicly. See Lena for example. Even in her preferred ballads she rarely puts anything into it. Gaga is here consequent. Provoke emotions, but keep your own in the secret. Highs and Lows as well. Some can completely capture you, some move past your ass without any impression. In the end, what makes a video clip good for you, is how it leads you into it and how it affects you personally. Even 'shitty' clips may appeal to you, if they pull the right strings for you. That's called (imperfectly) personal taste. And I'm wasting a lot of time for an artist I'm only marginally stoked... |

Well, now that it's been announced her famous sax player and friend Clarence Clemons (also of E Street Band fame) has unfortunately passed away due to complications of his stroke... It puts the Edge of Glory video in a totally different light and perspective, knowing that Clemons was the only person besides GaGa in the video, and might just be his last recorded appearance.
It's strange realizing I was watching so many performances of GaGa hardly weeks ago, rocking along with Clarence Clemons who seemed so alive and spirited. |

I'm not a Gaga fan but there is merit in her recent album, moreso than in her first and the video for "Judas" is a masterpiece to me. Every time I see that video I am transfixed and had that song and video come out back in 2006 when I was doing my Religion degree I would have used that video and all it's imagery and tale as part of my dissertation.

If you must know, however, "Snowfalls" in all of its poorly animated incarnation of miscalculated physics is shit. I'd rather watch something boring than that pile of random nonsense branded a music video. So concluding, the only difference is you think you know what you're talking about because the only conversation going on is the one you've been having with yourself with regard to what others opinions must be simply because you assume so. When clearly - such is not. |

You & I is one of the only Gaga videos I kind of like.
I never cared for her videos. I really like Bad Romance. I only like You & I because I think the cornfield scenes are gorgeous. And Man Gaga/Jo Calderone is kind of... almost hot.... kind of. The story is not entirely followable and a lot of the scenes seem really random with how it's edited but goodness those cornfield scenes and cinematography make it up for me. lulzzzzz. |
