I'm with the President on this one.MBFCPresident said:What...the...hell?
Not that there's anything wrong with that. Not at all.Shoqiyqa said:[...] but to me it looks like a rather ... LSD-based ... mixture of game footage and muddy women fetish footage.
I love the irony of the fact your saying you didn't like it because it broke away from the normal acoustic stuff which by all rights should even make it more original and refreshing.Kyuubi Fanatic said:Sorry to say I didn't like it at all. I had come to expect a certain style and tone from you that I found refreshing and original, and this just seemed like a experiment in soft porn.
I respect your desire to try something new and different from what we as the viewers have come to expect, but I could hardly hear your singing and your melodious voice and moving words are the best part of your music. So sad to barely hear them.
Also, didn't get the mud :/ Nor the bright outdoors, cows, and leotard. Had nothing to do with Heavy Rain from my perspective. Tho is someone does and can point it out to me I would be glad to listen.
Look forward to more unusual and gratifying music from you to my gamer soul. XD Keep on doing what you love.
Who's "we," white man?docbox1567 said:I also think this brings up a good question about sexuality. An attractive woman in a tight outfit appears on camera. We see that she moves seductively through gray skin and atmospheric music. We have stopped caring about what she is doing because an attractive woman dancing in tight clothes can only be displaying her sexuality. She could be soliloquizing Shakespeare's sonnets with a pure conviction of love, but her slender shapely body drowns out her voice and all we see is what we choose to see. An attractive woman has no voice in mainstream world and her shouts through damp mud and cold still water boils down to the one thing that we expect all attractive women to be, and that's why we do not see women but sex.

There are a hundred ways in which she could've been able to recite Shakespeare or do interpretative dance and noone would've lost attention to what she said. If I started doing the same bit in the exact same outfit people would cry outrage at the display my podgy body in leotards. I'm quite sure not one person would've been as positive as the comments above. So the fact that she's an attractive woman nets her múch more attention to what she's trying to say in this particular case. So please do stow the feminism and note the obvious.
I don't know about that, there are better ways of attracting an audience.XIV said:All I'm saying is she doesn't need to do any of that stuff to get higher ratings; I liked her old songs, they're thought through and insightful. This, however, had a 'Quest For Ratings' vibe to it.
Whatnow? *checks video again* Ah. There it is. To be honest, I didn't even notice it, and probably would have gone on not noticing it if you hadn't mentioned it!Rebecca Mayes said:No one has mentioned the armpit hair yet.
I was expecting some kind of outcry.
Hrmm... I liked almost all your previous songs, but this one is just a bit too... Well..like, trying to be a bit too hard to be art to my likes.Rebecca Mayes said:Heavy Rain
