muse...

Today in Dr. Jaya’s class, he showed us two video clips. As expected from Dr., he always came up with something that is most of us didn’t thought about it. For example, the first video clip, Toomba by Saaein Zahoor, it was a good song. Although I completely can’t comprehend the lyric, but the rhythm and the music was so eminent. But when you actually understood the lyric, it’s a mind blowing. I mean the meaning, its different, the way the singer sings it; it’s just something that you don’t get to see it everyday. Credit to Dr. Jaya for showing us the magnificent clip.
Then, he move on to something rather dramatic. It’s a Lady Gaga’s Alejandro clip. This time I wasn’t too excited since I’m familiar with the song. It has lots of underlying meaning that only can be found if you look at it in detail. Although it was rather explicit, but we can’t blame Lady Gaga since for her, that was an art. For her, it is how she expressed her feeling and creativity. It depends on us how we level that explicitly. Different people, different way of thinking. But the thing that shocked me the most was when Dr. said how he loved that clip, the way they choreographed it, how it was presented and many more. ‘Don’t call my name; don’t call my name, Alehandro’.
