Is Taylor Swifts Bad Blood the best music video since Michael Jackson Thriller?

Barry_Clarke · 18/05/15 - 16:27

I think I is an amazing accomplishment for any artist truly inspirational

Jason · 18/05/15 - 16:28

I watched it this morning and, obviously in my humble opinion, the answer is a very firm "No".

GagaKeshaMinaj · 18/05/15 - 16:56

I'll give you the best video since Telephone

jlp95bwfc · 18/05/15 - 17:30

No. There's an existing thread by the way. Why do some feel their opinion warrants it's own thread?

Derek Faye · 18/05/15 - 18:06

No.

Just a load of random famous faces bunged together in a pointless 4 minute video.

Now someone dressed as Katy Perry, that would've been interesting.

Huge Ego fuelled Vanity project

Yes, that's Taylor Swift, I dislike her silly songs but dislike her even more.

Hav_mor91 · 18/05/15 - 18:33

Absolutely not I think Katy Perry's cameo heavy 80's inspired video for Last Friday Night was so much better it fitted the song was fun over the top and a decent watch. This comes across as one poster has said a way to show off her famous friends. It's a disappointment as it had potential it's Certainly no Thriller, Like A Prayer, Baby One More Time iconic vidoes that stand as testaments to pop cultureits just an average video with a good line up

Let's not get too ambitious. It's the best video since her own Blank Space, which is miles better than this one. Bad Blood is definitely entertaining though, loads of fun, and Kendrick improved on the original song, which was one of the worst on the album in its original form in my opinion.

The best music video in recent years is 'Bad Romance' by Lady Gaga.

SpaceCake · 18/05/15 - 20:42

No to Taylor Swift...

I never understand the fuss around the Bad Romance video. What part of it is iconic in any way? Or particularly special? To me it's just a generic pop video.

The Bad Blood video is such over-hyped nonsense. All of the 'star appearances' are in it for about 4 seconds each and don't do anything at all except stand and pout. All a load of rubbish.

Watching the video to Bad Blood is like watching Taylor Swift's ego getting inflated but it refuses to explode so just gets bigger and bigger...and bigger. The problem is it just doesn't go anywhere and then it ends. At this point everything deflates in a "is that it?" kinda way.

It's like the video to Mariah Carey's Heartbreaker cost over 1 million dollars to make but it certainly didn't look like it had a massive budget.

Anyways, best pop video of recent years has surely got to be Telephone by Lady Gaga & Beyonce.

That said, I thought the video to Dangerous by David Guetta feat. Sam Martin was pretty cool.

evkylemeatsix · 19/05/15 - 10:11

eRRMM, no!

rivercity_rules · 19/05/15 - 12:56

I love Swifty but for me I prefer the Mean or Blank Space videos.

Bad Romance and Telephone beat it, Baby One More Time and Toxic were better.

I also wish it was an Out of the Woods video, rather than Bad Blood to be honest.

Chris_Wilson · 19/05/15 - 14:32

I don't know but what I do know is that she is the female michael jackson of this generation

elasticlove · 19/05/15 - 15:21

Not really... Its stuffed with meaningless cameos and all that build-up leads to just a bitch slap.

barlowconnor · 19/05/15 - 17:51

No definitely not

Honestly the only thing I think they have in common is that they both have/had white skin. How on earth is Taylor Swift the female Michael Jackson of this generation

TreyC · 19/05/15 - 18:38

What an awful thread. No!

ChateauMarmont · 19/05/15 - 20:25

Bad Blood was the worst song on the album in my opinion, but since the video came out I've changed my opinion and can listen to it a whole lot more. But Kendrick Lamar ruins it for me, I hate rap cameos.

Blank Space is by far her best music video I've seen, but I do like famous people spotting in Bad Blood, love The Trinity!

dodger0703 · 19/05/15 - 22:11

i don't get all the attention she gets, just average pop singer to me, same as about a million others

Is that a joke? It's not funny

Telephone was best video in recent years

There have been many good pop video since Thriller, Two Tribes by Frankie Goes to Hollywood being case and point in that era.

For the females:

Like A Prayer ranks pretty highly when she does something of that quality I might agree.
