Urien Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Interesting concept, and I love that she feels strong enough to release this kind of stuff. But the song didnt do it for me at the Met and it isn't doing it for me now. The video is brilliant though. Wish it had more of her though.

Mensch Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 @Amelia totally get what you’re saying but she could’ve been among them and crying quietly as if it were out of her control ... Idk love the video though. The more I watch it the better it is, even without her in it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plasticlimbo Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 It's a beautiful life But I'm not concerned It's a beautiful dream But our dream is earned I can dress like a boy I can dress like a girl Keep your beautiful words Cos I'm not concerned Cos your world is such a shame Cos your world's obsessed with fame Cos your world's in such much pain Cos your world is... Up in flames Its a beautiful plan But I'm not concerned oh yeah It's a beautiful game That I never learnt People tell me to shut my mouth (shut your mouth) That I might get burnt Keep your beautiful lies Cos I'm not concerned... Cos your world is such a shame Cos your world's obsessed with fame Cos your world's in such much pain Cos your world is... Cos your world is... I will not denounce the things that I have said I will not renounce my faith in my sweet Lord He is just an angel, fight against the anguish I am not afraid, I felt attacked because I believe you God is on my side and I'll be fine I am not afraid 'cause I have faith in me You can cut my hair and tell me I'm a bastard Say that I'm a witch and burn me at the stake It's all a big mistake To ... doubt him is a sin I won't give in They are so naive They think we are no aware of their crimes We know... but we are just not ready to act The storm isn't in the air It's inside of us I want to tell you about love and loneliness It's getting late now Can't you hear outside of your Supreme hoodie? The wind that´s beginning to howl...? It's a beautiful life... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macromad Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 So Beautiful Game became Dark Ballet. The song is my least favorite from all the new songs so far, but the video is very artistic, very well done and I think it's more to make a statement than to promote the album. I wish she had appeared more though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butter9 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Got it and LOVE it. My favourite part is the WTF Nutcracker sample in the middle. This should have been the lead single. It's a CRAZY Track . The ending is insane af. I want to add that the video is hauntingly beautiful . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svperstar Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 The song itself was interesting enough, but the video takes it INTO FUCKING ORBIT. Jesus, THIS is the Madonna we dont deserve. The artist and conceptualist before the pop performer. And she does it better than anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tycole6 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Fuck me. There is a reason why her work has been displayed in MoMA, and this video and song perfectly encapsulate why. This is Madonna the artist. The social provocateur. It is beyond pop, it’s complete art. Thank you Madonna for continuously challenging me, society, and yourself after nearly 40 years in this harsh industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plasticlimbo Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 So touching !! And even if she is in the video for brief seconds, it shows her powerfully mentioning love...

toujours Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 mon Dieu! "dark ballet" a masterwork in short horror film. malevolence pervade its visual and aural orchestration. for the less perceptive, the video might even contain "demonic" elements. but the messaging is very clear... omnipresent to this day are the religious, political, cultural, and social inquisition of people in the fringes and margins. the dark ages never came to past but was tempered only by science and modernization. prejudice lurks in the minds and hearts of those who refuse to step beyond their bubbles, towers and zones. the divide remains. the battlefields are still there. people might have discovered cures for epidemics. but none yet for today's pandemic disease of rage and ignorance that are magnified by mass media and digital technology. and yet like cascading water, the vulnerable will continue forging a path for their redemption. orders and systems be damned. triumphantly, emmanuel and madonna have realized their artistic vision. they found a brilliant conduit in mykko. surrounded by a lovely cast of actors, he personifies the persecuted lot of this world that soldier on. and the third person narration of madonna, more heard and little seen, give more focus on the film's message. "dark ballet" is a fine addition to Madonna's exceptional videography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjmor95 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 The song: WOW. WOW. WOW. WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?! Should have filmed my reactions to those sudden "gear changes". Wasn't expecting anything like that. The video: It's been a while since she's released a visual this powerful. BRAVO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
