I think you're probably right on it being a Jodorowsky homage. Shame it's a shit song and video.

Please! Who cares if she has a new video!?(okay silly question)But as soon as the music comes in it reminds how all her stuff sounds the same.
"shes so different" "she makes such a statement" --Oh piss off! I hate the fact that whenever an artist makes a 'statement' it takes 10x as long to forget they ever existed. They get indented into the pop world as some kind of God. It must be all the symbols
Also I want to say a personal thanks to her many producers and make-up artists and fashon designers and directors and managers and hairdressers and doctors and cooks and drivers and record companies and assistants and shit sweepers and FUCKING FANS!
Where would we all be without you guys?

the very thing i find disturbing is the bubblegum pop songs being listened to by little girls and the video being basically satanic...more so than anything occupying that space by a fair margin

Gaga describes the video as "a celebration of my love and appreciation for the gay community, my admiration of their bravery, their love for one another and their courage in their relationships. In the video I'm pining for the love of my gay friends--but they just don't want me to be with them."

ah... it's all so clear now...!
...? she is bizarre. plus, i highly doubt she writes/directs her own videos, so she probably just makes up arbitrary meanings as she goes along

i think u may have missed the point of the symbolism, there are constant recurring themes and not so subtle references to dark dark shit (occultism, mind control etc...) in her videos and i don't trust it, all the same themes are constantly popping up in many many other 'pop' videos http://vigilantcitizen.com/?p=1676 http://vigilantcitizen.com/?p=2614 http://vigilantcitizen.com/?p=2737 http://vigilantcitizen.com/?p=3423
(Disclaimer: i don't agree fully with the author of these articles that it is due to "the illuminati" or anything but i do agree that it is very very sinister)

Part of me wonders if the music company just saw the massive market for this stuff... You lot love it like a middle aged women loves gossip
Don't compare the awesomeness of Jodorowsky to the shittyness of Lady Gaga.

In the past, when changes were imposed on populations, they would take to the streets, protest and even riot. The main reason for this clash was due to the fact that the change was clearly announced by the rulers and understood by the population. It was sudden and its effects could clearly be analyzed and evaluated. Today, when the elite needs a part of its agenda to be accepted by the public, it is done through desensitization. The agenda, which might go against the public best interests, is slowly, gradually and repetitively introduced to the world through movies (by involving it within the plot), music videos (who make it cool and sexy) or the news (who present it as a solution to today’s problems). After several years of exposing the masses to a particular agenda, the elite openly presents the concept the world and, due to mental programming, it is greeted with general indifference and is passively accepted. This technique originates from psychotherapy.
