frzndrwnwrld Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 My only issue with the video are the sound effects. Found them too distracting. Because of that, I've only seen it once or twice. I have issues with the over-staturation of red as well, but it's mostly the bull noises I didn't like. And I've felt that way from the beginning. Never flip-flopped.
Flip The Switch Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Sound noises are essential. Everything's so perfect.
Mozo1 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 always loved the sound noises, especially the claps I didn't at first, then a week after it was released, was basically adding them in my head or singing them while playing it. L4L is perfect in every way, and if the song hit, no one would be saying shiz. Traitor muthafuckas
mtzlplk Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 LFL, rushed? My oh my, how opinios always change when something underperforms. Weren't we all praises and stanning how good it was when it debuted at Snapchat? That was the concept they were going for for the song...

HolidayGuy Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Like I've said before, the LFL video was well-done, but it lacked a "buzz" factor to it. I don't know how much one one "Ghosttown" will have, but it does look like it could be a return to the classic Madonna story video we've wanted for some time.
nick00 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 LFL is obviously a pretty solid track, but honestly have not listened or watched the video more than a couple of times. Don't give a s**t about the chart position.

I don't know how much one one "Ghosttown" will have, but it does look like it could be a return to the classic Madonna story video we've wanted for some time. Yes, I believe that too. It's a classic Madonna's ballad and video should fit with that.
Icykiller Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 LFL is a masterpiece, period! It is refreshing after 7 years and 2 damn 1st singles to get a solo M track. And the fact that it sits perfectly among her classics makes it all better. Charts are clearly not a big deal, because if they had been a goal of hers, then she would've rushed video and promo in December, or had not released the song prior to the album in the first place. Plus, the video is a jewel.
Paul Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 ^ Solo track? It features MNEK and Alicia Keys back topic: where is the GT video? Maybe in time for the next single release?
Guest Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 honestly, the color effects could have been done better....
Soma Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 ^ it is a solo track. MNEK isn't on the final album version. And Alicia Keys playing piano doesn't mean she's featuring. It could be anyone. I'm sure GP doesn't even know it's Alicia.
Soma Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 But back to GHOSTTOWN! Can't wait to see what they have done with the video. Is it going to be a mini movie (over 6 minutes long, dialogue, story etc.) or more like a TAB (story, no dialogue, no extra length).

Really?
Apples388 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Seriously I don't even know if these people are "Ray of Lighters" or whatever but I find such internet creatures very disturbing.

I don't know how much one one "Ghosttown" will have, but it does look like it could be a return to the classic Madonna story video we've wanted for some time. it would have made more buzz if it was not sprung out of nowhere in Snapchat... even us rabid fans knew of it just hours before its debut... but as always, the same as what happened with GMAYL, a high profile broadcast performance took away attention from it.. GMAYL video debuted 3 days before the Super Bowl and easily racked up millions of views... after that, attention shifted to the Super Bowl... as for LFL two days after it debuted, attention shifted to the Grammy performance... that's why up to now it only has 10M views...
promise to try Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 honestly, the color effects could have been done better.... honestly, the color effects could have been done better.... yes!!!! could have, and should have been done better,it's a madonna video!!
mgreece Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 When LFL was first released everybody was saying that it was a masterpiece. Don't let any chart positions or commercial success change your mind or stop you from enjoying art
Moka Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 GMAYL video debuted 3 days before the Super Bowl and easily racked up millions of views... after that, attention shifted to the Super Bowl... as for LFL two days after it debuted, attention shifted to the Grammy performance... that's why up to now it only has 10M views... 10M views on Youtube but it's not the only way to record how many viewers have seen the video! There's no record of how many people watched the premiere on Snapchat but that doesn't mean that nobody watched it! LFL video was perfect! Some fans have been complaining for years about Madonna using featurings on her lead singles and now that she does it by herself, some fans begin to criticize her choice because the song was not a classical hit in the charts (where young stars have advantages because of airplay and streaming). Some people should listen again to these words : "This will be a revolution of inquiring further, about not worrying about winning other people's approval, of not wishing we were someone else but perfectly content to be who you are, someone unique and rare and fearless." That's what Madonna did with this record and I'm so proud of her for this.
DanM Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Living For Love is her best lead single since (at least) Hung Up and you all have to deal with it
Arnian Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 How can you not love the clapping in LFL video? That's one of those Madonna additions that just makes the song even better. I clap all the time when I listen to it in embarrassing ways in my car. Jazz hands galore
Guest Rachelle of London Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 I bloody love the sound effects on the video. I re enact them when listening to the album version
Iconic Fetus Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 I love the claps and how the stage sound when they jump on it, the only thing that I don'tlike is the red effect on her, there are moments that I cannot see her body.
