Ghosttown video on VEVO NOW!

Recommended Posts

I'm happy with this video! It exceeded my expectations honestly, and it is definitely better than LFL's video (which shouldn't have been hard to do anyway).

 

Frankly, I'm not a fan of Jonas' tendency to create visual worlds that are beautified and look "overedited" (like B's Haunted) but I felt like it was more minimalist in this video and I was happy about it.

 

Madonna looked fantastic, and I liked her outfit. Her acting was great and obviously I loved the bit with the pictures as well as the TV screen (I instantly thought of Erotica, Take A Bow and Hollywood).

 

The tango breakdown was the best part of the video... it was really nice and I didn't expect anything of that sort. So yeah, I was pleasantly surprised.

 

I have to admit though, I dislike the opening and the ending. They are both cheesy and take away from the video's emotional impact imo like, the opening montage about a nuclear war or w/e just felt contrived. I would have preferred if they kept it ambiguous and just focused on the story of Madonna's character as opposed to just thrusting the video into that context. I also dislike the ending because it felt too high school special-y lol

 

Strangely enough, when I watched the scene of Madonna and Terrance walking with the kid at the end, I just pictured Walt Whitman holding hands with a group of ethnically-mixed people in a circle, jumping up and down and promoting world peace fall1 she looked amazing there though

 

All in all though, I'm satisfied with the video. It made me like the song more and now I think Ghosttown is becoming one of my favorite songs off the album.
