THE SORRIEST EXCUSE!

    At first i was not a huge fan of that new "Dancing in the Dark" song, but I figured that since the song is about dancing and the beat/rhythm was all that bad, that there might be some good choreography in the music video. But now I absolutely love it! The music video was oh so beautifully crafted.

UH, YEAH RIGHT.                                                         Source
    After witnessing the train wreck i wanted to repent and punish myself for ever thinking that (the choreography theory). What was she doing?! The use of the hand patterns was a fairly good idea, but they did more movement than she did. The entire video with the random frame and hands encircling her could have been used just for the intro, but to drag on the entire video was torture! Seriously, was there one moment in the video where she took even one step? All she did was move her hands or roll around in painted hands, she touched her hair and hips, poked out her finger to "push to start" and stuff like that. Can you get any blander? That's something anyone can do, where is the art? Her outfits weren't even that interesting ether. It was all very generic, the club scenes were even more redundant (LABYRINTH!). Ugh, and the glasses were not in any way creative, no special effects or use of color. ThI certainly hope she wasn't proud of her work and that is why this is the sorriest excuse for a music video I've witnessed in a while.
