Bubble Dreams and Cola 95 Posted 7 hours ago 2 hours ago, Let the Light In said: Maybe the lady in red/mayhem character is LMs themselves shouting her to Dance or Die. I feel like the Mayhem character represents her workahoolic persona. That's why she said in her ELLE interview, that she wish she could have been be advised to not be too hard on herself. In "Disease" MV she clearly tries to purge herself from the pain by making her traumas personas work hard till a healthier one appears. But it end badly cause she realize that her traumas are a part of her and she can't get rid of it. In "Abracadabra" it seems like she wants the blonde "Lady Gaga" persona to fit to the public and academic expectations. In the lyrics she addresses the phantom of the dance-floor to create a pop song bc that's what the lady in red wants. But it also seems like there's a sort of duality between the attempts to succeed and the reality : Mayhem in red represents a kind of dominatrix, evil force despite the fact that she was supposed to be a doctor. While "Lady Gaga" persona embodies the purity, she's dressed in white, her outfit are noble, she even wear a cross on her outfit and even did the Christ pose, etc... It seems like she wants to chose the right path so that's why she confronts Lady in Red at the end. https://youtu.be/vBynw9Isr28?t=260&si=l48cowpFywToTHzO I'm surprised that we didn't saw the car of Mayhem, I feel like the car crash symbolism is an important aspect of LG7 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anonymcomenter 4,701 Posted 3 hours ago I do like the song, specially that pre-chorus! But that last chorus is missing another repetition, i kinda wanted her to go full on gaga crazy on the adlibs… Maybe repeat the Death or Love tonight part a few times also, she really stepped up in the MV since that mess of Disease… This feels much more well thought and executed (féminas me of Alejandro and i love it) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
