*I hate when people don’t understand the lyrics and meaning, it’s not a cliche. Gaga is always talking directly to the LGBT+ community who suffers when show their identity, the self expression comes sometimes in the form of the hairstyle, the color or even the shape could go against the heteronormative way, how many queer people was shamed for having a hair they liked - so many. It could sound like nothing for someone who never lived this type of oppression but I swear to you, it hurts.*
I remember when I was a teenager, no one in my family would let me grow my hair long. Since I wasn’t paying my own bills, I had to obey. It was terrible because I knew it was just plain prejudice. This song is for everyone, but not everyone truly imagines that this actually happens.
agree, if you did not grown up being shamed by the choices of your love, of your self expression, if you are a not a grown up and is still afraid to wear something you like, this song is just not gonna hit u the same
No it didn't? he was talking about how hair is important to different cultures and that it's a metaphor for her craving self expression and he read the descriptions and everything what are you talking about?
@@NoteToLoser well thats not everything he said lol. i love his videos btw so dont come for me ahah i didnt mean it in a bad way. but if you watch the video you obvi will se that he didnt get the meaning
hair is such a huge deal in society and always has been when you think about it. when women have short hair, they can be judged because at they’re not seen as pretty enough or feminine enough. when men have long hair, at times they can be judged and seen as less masculine even though it’s a less common critique now (shout out to you, your hair is majestic). and when it comes to trans people, hair is extremely important for them being comfortable in their identity. a trans guy cutting their hair or trans women growing it out can be important for them. i think that’s why the song resonates with so many lgbtq+ people as it does
Just think of it this way, Lady Gaga wears different hair everyday and we do or cut our hair the way we want it. It might sound cliche for some but I thought that's the last thing people would think of about it. The time has changed but this came out when people need empowerment and we still need them.
I know probably no one will see this but this has been my favorite gaga song since I was 10 when my mom used to play this album all the time lmfao. I realized I was trans just two years later and it all made sense :')
The live piano version of this song is better in my opinion, and you kinda connect more with the lyrics on that version with the way Lady Gaga deliveres them.
ive had the same idea as you at the first few listens. i felt this song was a bit cliche, but it grew on me. i just needed to surrender to the song and feel it. but yeah at the time, you have to remember that this song was a big thing, this was 2011.
I get the nihilism. As others have explained, this is a song meant for the LGBT+ community. I think it's cute that she made it for the community as they can relate to wanting to be accepted by their loved ones and society as a whole, not only despite their sexual orientation or gender identity, but FOR it. It reminds me of Madonna's music regarding her female sexuality and wanting to be accepted by a father figure who is telling her what to do. As a piece of art it is quite positive but also largely unrealistic as we all know - you cannot change others or their opinions of you, you can only change how you relate to the opinions. Either you chose to let it hurt you and destroy you, or you try your best to focus on the actual truth of what they're saying. Because you have short or long hair, blue or brunette, does that mean anything about who you are as a human soul? No. It's just how you're presenting yourself as a sack of bones covered in meat, blood, and cased in skin for the time you're on this planet. People have inherent value despite their identity and relation to a very flawed and fucked up society.
I totally disagree with you when you say about “people’s opinions”, when someone use your identity to offend you saying you’re not normal or a freaky (as Gaga herself mentioned) is not just a opinion, it goes against human rights, we can have different perspectives of how good a apple taste but can’t about who I am.
@@ArmageddonBomb someone saying you're freaky or not normal does not immediately threaten your human rights. do marginalized groups have to deal with messed up shit on a daily basis because of societal and institutional norms? of course. i have a lot of empathy for that as no human should be treated badly due to how they present themselves or identify. marginalized groups deserve human rights. my point was that you cannot control what others do or think. human rights are necessary - but i think it's extremely important to consider what is actually a threat and what might be a stupid opinion that really wouldn't hurt you if you didn't give it permission to. this is all shit i learned in therapy. it's a valid psychological way of not putting yourself into a box where you're always lacking power and agency over how you feel because of the actions and thoughts of others. you are not helpless.
Leave off the nasty comments! He's just reacting, it's actually quite nice to see someone not connecting to one song, because I'm sure he connects with another! I personally love this song, I think the corniness, school musical & innocence is what really transcends this song for me.
Haha I completely get not really liking when a song is too positive. Sometimes when there’s empowerment anthems, I literally can’t listen to it. I don’t like things that are too on the nose. But I love the production and the symbolism either way !

damn u wanna be a victim so bad. its an empowering message with a good sentiment but yes it is cliche. stay pressed about someone having an opinion

@@TheeRatMilkjust his opinion too...

It's cliche now, but in 2012 this song and born this way were important for many people.
BTW album was a safe space for so many in the early 2010s
It was released in 2011 so its not cliche at that time.
Reacting to hair while having a gorgeous head of it is king behavior
I still think about Jamey every time I hear Hair. Paws up, Jamey 🐾 💕

dear notice that this song was produced 10 years ago......
Wow, people not knowing RedOne... I feel old ._.
The next ones could be The Queen or Electric Chapel, that would be really amazing! 🤞
Shorn is the past participle of the verb shear, it can also be sheared in past simple.
I know probably no one will see this but this has been my favorite gaga song since I was 10 when my mom used to play this album all the time lmfao. I realized I was trans just two years later and it all made sense :')
Def wasn't cliche in 2011. She honestly made that message become a cliche.
