  • LOVES IT!!

  • I love Roisin! I love her music and I love this song! but am I the only one person here freaked out by huge lobster raping Roisin? O_O

  • I love this show

  • BRAVO!! super la video thanks !

  • Grey's Anatomy brought me here!! :)

  • LOVE THE JOHN WATER'S HOMAGE.

  • They lobster scene was taken from John Water's 'Multiple Maniacs.'

  • Roisin keeps her dignity and integrity, she doesn't undress for fame

  • 53 people will never have it all, have it all, have it all.

  • Comment removed

  • she is a good actrees, too.

  • i think this video is more like homenage than a Typical Roisin Video. I'ts just like an tribute to Mutiple Maniacs. Nice roisin. =)

  • Comment removed

  • when was this video filmed?

  • Maybe a Uwe Boll tribute?

  • This is the last song i heard 100 times a day appearing on "Overpowered". I didnt knew that there is a video - until now. Nice Epic view on Showbiz anyway. I wondered myself about pointing the top on 1/3 of the Track: "... sitting on top the world ...", followed by a bridge that meke me thinking about how it would sound if you play this song reverse - Bachesque! Nice Humor also - singing about a director who isnt there while making Music, which is obviously missing one.

  • It looks like she is making a statement about the "movie" industry and all the "Stars" that have compromised themselves to be in it. This might be also the reason why Roisin isn't as well known as Gaga, because she didn't "sell out" like all the rest.

  • @moofushu This video is clearly a John Waters tribute in my opinion.

  • What in the world? Hahaha Who is this Roisin Murphy? She seems cool.

  • this was probably her worse song. such a "made to be hit"...

    she has talent though, gaga is just a puppet.

    I'd like to see how many songs did Gaga actually wrote...

  • @sterileheart THANK YOU!!!!

  • @sterileheart lady gaga writes all her own songs along with songs for other artist such as britney spears and pussycat dolls

  • @sterileheart I don't think so. it's Quite a Roisin Song. I think it's as good as the others =)

  • lol I have no fucking idea wtf is going on in that clip but it looks like they had a blast filming it.

  • I just love the fact that she's promenading aruond Britain with a bunch of drag queens.

  • now to be honest, id rather see her doing something with gwen stefani because i think they kinda have the same sense for humour and for music as Art....and for miss fame GaGa music is just a medium of getting rich in a easy way by ruining her own life...(my oppinion, nothing more)

  • I like Lady Gaga, I like Roisin Murphy. I'm tired of coming to nearly EVERY Roisin Murphy video and finding people complaining about how Lady Gaga is more well known. She's more recent, and thus the youth know her better. Roisin Murphy isn't exactly ~old~ music, but even a year makes a LOT of difference in how popular a singer is. Give it some time, and someone else will replace Gaga. Then all her fans will complain about the new artist! Life goes on.

  • i love DIVINE! hahaha

    Rois is FANTASTIQUE!

  • what's there to censor?

  • I love the song, but did the video have a point?

  • Gaga = Tranny. Chick with a dick + man hands and a dude face. If she's not a he... I'll eat my own shit!

  • @RikkGlassbrook

    Do it, Divine will smile in her grave and Roisin will be happy too, I think.

  • hahaha that's good..:D

  • this clip is absolutely fantastic ...

  • millions girls wanna be in my position(8) nice awesome as always roisin murphy.

  • A Delicious 80's Revival :DD

  • what the fuck is this? oh my god i've never heard of this person and from what i've seen i don't think i want to...that was like fucked but that's just my personal opinion

  • did roisin just have sex with a lobster :O!

  • fuck lady gaga.We all know that she is copy cat hoe.Roisin is best!

  • @thevilkids very true lol

  • Its annoying lady gagas fans are so cruel towards other women. its not lady gagas fault and sometimes i forget that. I don't see the similarities in any of these ppl they are all good for who they are and its crap these women are all pinned against each other!! BTW Roisin said she respects her as an artist and fashion Icon so these kids need to stop the attacks. its sickening.

  • This entire video is an hommage to John Waters, this is a combination of Female Trouble, and Multiple Maniacs where Divine is raped by a lobster that comes out of no where. It's absolutely brilliant in its referencing cult influences from the late 60s & early 70s. I love Gaga, she is brilliant, but Roisin. This would go over the heads of so many people.

  • Gentlemen, to all who is in this Roisin-Gaga discussion, I present you: Goldfrapp

    youtube.com/watch?v=yRNEpm8F6o­0

  • @Hyshinara While Gaga (along with Madge) has borrowed a lot from Alison, I think she's taken a lot more from Roisin. This is most evident in Overpowered, Sow into You, and Indigo from her Moloko days. That being said, I think Movie Star sounds like it could have come off of Supernature (and I'm not the only one)

  • the Lobster scene is actually a reference to Lobstra and Divine Brown and the film 'Multiple Maniacs''

  • Before Lady Gaga's Bad Romance - Roisin's Movie Star... :) 

  • this song is to die for

  • Kellis wears a coat like that in her, "Little Star", video.

  • no fucking comprende

  • INFINITE UNIVERSE AS WOMEN WANT MORE PLEASE ROISIN

  • Brilliant John Water's praise

  • I have discover this song, in 2008, but only in 2010 that I first saw the music video. and I love it.

  • Roisin rocks my world!!!

  • Like said before, maybe Murphy doesn't wish to be highly famous. Some people don't want to be really famous. Roisin is amazing though, that's for sure. But maybe, just maybe, she doesn't want to be highly famous. 

  • @randomnameherexx your right and she really hates big music companies to, and she hates this song being released, im really really gutted she is taking a back seat with releases but at the same time feel like were gonna recieve "gifts" in the way of the no label releases.

  • @pidge80 Exactly :D

  • AMAZING! this is probably one of my favs of all time... LOVE IT!!!!!!! YOU GO RÓISÍN!!!!!!!!

  • More VOICE than gaga.. and intelligent lyrics

  • More VOICEEE tha gaga ...

  • ohhh i just love her!!!!

  • She is awesome... if only she was more noticed than Lady GaGa.... They should a song and a video together.

  • is the photographer Matt Lucas from Little Britain?

  • i love this song she has a great voice

  • Roisin o como se escriba habra venido mucho antes de la Gaga pero Gaga en tan poco tiempo ha tenido el exto que ni la Rosin ha tenido, mira que yo conoci a esta tipa por Gaga pero preguntale a alguien, conoces a Roisin? y te va a responder No, quien es esa?

  • @MissViolety pero admite gaga copia a muchas cantantes, antes no sabía de Roisin pero ahora me gusta y tiene un estilo muy bueno hasta mejor que el de gaga

  • @MissViolety por k eres una ignorante!! te enteras de lo mas fácil , de lo mas accesible .. buu

  • Seeing as i'm not a homosexual, a woman, or a 'fasionista/o' I feel rather strange listening to Roisin Murphy, should this be the case? Yes. On a side note, can anyone explain to me why 'Dear Miami' wasn't released as a single?

  • search movie star kris di angelis on soundcloud. com for an amazing remix of this!! I love it!

  • I wish I'd been old enough to see SRB at its prime!

  • thats why i have no gay friends lol

  • @MissViolety you must have a boring life

  • @richie518 haha calm down faggot

  • BTW probably one of her best videos!

  • Lmao the beginning was hilarious!!!! "You little with! You little witch!" :P

  • Chubby di'n eat the poo!

  • I do agree that Roisin should be like 'hella' famous..but did you think that maybe she doesn't want to be? Some artists don't want to be really famous.

  • Before Lady Gaga there was Roisin Murphy....

  • The scene where she is raped by a lobster is stolen from an early John Waters film. In the film Multiple Maniacs Divine is raped by a lobster in the exact same setting. This whole video seem s like a homage to early John Waters. Makes me love Roisin more.

  • aggreed...

  • I really like this song. Lots of fun to dance to!

    However, as many times as I watch it, I just don't like this video. I think it starts out fun and I'm enjoying up until the lobster sex scene and then I'm lost once the zombie scene starts. I just don't get it. And I don't really think it's very entertaining. First video of hers, Moloko or solo, that I haven't liked. Oh well, to each his own. :-)

  • Well, I think she is a naive strong headed girl who involves herself into movie industry, not knowing what will that cost her. When she is done, she becomes a monster like the rest. Róisín would be a pretty good actress, but I think her acting career is over after this video, at least in Hollywood. Compare this song to "Hotel California" by The Eagles.

  • Drag quenn zombies :) cool

  • Divine Miss RoisiN !!! I adore HER !!!!

  • God! Let me save you from that monster lobster! Jeez!... Can't stand watching that...

  • Gaga is just copying our Roisin....she is the master

  • i love this

    signing cybersissy

  • Roisin could totally be an actor if she wanted to.

  • As much as I love Róisín Murphy the chorus of this song bears a striking resemblance to the song at the end of the video game portal, sung by the computer. I still love it though.

  • I know!

  • love <3

  • Roisin has more substance then gaga.. more beauty too.

    Still their both great in their own way.

  • @sunkissedboi gaga has NO beauty.............

  • @sunkissedboi You forgot Roisin has more talent in a fart than the other chick has...

  • I think it sucks that Lady Gaga is so much more famous than Roisin Murphy. Don't get me wrong, I do like Gaga and think she's brilliant, but Murphy is an absolute poetic pop genius, a true artist with a gift for both lyrics and visual metaphor. The scene where she was raped by the lobster was inspired, and her speech near the end, just before her vampirical devouring of that transexual, are probably worthy of an installation in the Tate Modern!

  • @MrHeslopian : how cute of you! i just think like you in this case.

  • @MrHeslopian maybe they should work together?

  • @pinkpurpleyfy

    If you mean with Gaga Roisin will never work with her in a million years. I'm positive.

  • Comment removed

  • @MrHeslopian dont worry :) fame its nothing... great artists like Roisin dont think about fame, just love creating awesome things... its just that 80% of the world population lives in darkness and they really don feed their spirits with good stuff... but ppl who looks for something special they'll find it :)

  • @king1283 yeaaaaaaah!! finally!! somebody in my side!!

  • @MrHeslopian

    The Lobster scene (as much of the references in video) is a tribute to Divine. It should be familiar to anyone who's seen Pink Flamingos.

  • @HtownHunk Thanks, I was aware of that.

  • @MrHeslopian Haha ok, I wasn't sure. I agree with you that it was a pretty brilliant tie-in.

  • @MrHeslopian yeah "inspired" - it was a homage to Divine, a scene from Multiple Maniacs where divine is raped by a giant lobster. Credit where it's due ;)

  • @remiem Agreed, and that large drag queen with the bouffant is clearly a Divine lookalike

  • @MrHeslopian Gaga tsssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

    Róisín is intelligent and beautiful

    gaga is an idea thief and ugly as hell

    big difference!!!

    Shame on all people who dare to compare Róisín with that gaga freak in a positive way!

  • @MrHeslopian Her getting raped by a lobster was indeed inspired.

    By DIVINE. Who did it forty years ago.

  • @justnicknet As a fan of Divine and John Waters, I'm well aware of that. I have almost all the late actor's movies.

  • @MrHeslopian

    The lobster scene is a homage to a scene in John Waters "Multiple Maniacs", where a magnificent drag queen named Divine is being raped by a huge lobster after killing her husband and childs and best friend.

    So it's not Roisin Murphy's original idea, but she certainly has great taste in movies!

  • @MrHeslopian The giant Lobster rape was from a John Waters film. A lot of this video is based on films from John Waters.

  • @Cazxiro I know that. It's from the film Multiple Maniacs. I am a huge fan of John Waters. Maybe I should have said the reference is inspired. Either way I'm sick to death of you fucking idiots telling me over and over and over and over and over and over again that it wasn't an original concept by Murphy. My comment has been up for a year. Do you really think no-one else has remarked upon this in all that time?

  • @MrHeslopian and I'm sick of you idiots who have your own head up so far your own ass. :) So do yourself a favor and stop being such a fucking dumb prick? Then again you actually like Lady GaGa so then chances of you not being a prick is probably none.

    Plus, if you have such a problem with people remarking on your own "typo" why don't you take off your own comment? 

  • @Cazxiro I'm seriously considering it. But then I go a few months and think "huh, maybe people will leave it alone", but then a retarded mistake like you comes along and brings it up again. And yeah, judging someone by their taste in music, how very unpretentious of you; you definitely don't have your head up your own arse like me. And it isn't a "typo"; a typo is a spelling or grammatical mistake. It's an accidental omission of a certain detail. How very not fucking stupid of you...

  • "You little witch!" That line makes me laugh like a fool everytime! God I love drag queens!

  • do you know me then??

  • Why would I know you?

  • check cybersissy here

  • @MrHeslopian

    from a past or future life

  • @MrHeslopian

    from a past or future life

  • Roisin come to Mexico pleaseeeeee!!

  • It's soooooo annoying people need to bring up Lady GaGa in these comments things... Lady GaGa is just trashy pop music. Roisin is electronic genius... the only thing they have in common, at all, is that they wear weird outfits. That's it!

  • this is the most fucked up thing ever

  • Who is lady gaga?

  • cuando se aber la puerta en el centor esta un tipo maquillado como divine en la pelicula Female Trouble

    when the door is open there is a guy with a make-up like a trasvesti called "divine" on the movie Female Trouble

  • I have recurring dreams where Roísín Murphy's posse battles Lady Gaga's entourage to the death.

    I just didn't realize that it would involve drag queens or lobster rape.

  • Oh god, I'm sorry - I marked you down, I meant to hit the thumbs up! Sorry!

    Damn Youtube...is there a way to cancel the thumbs down?

  • Супер!!! Rosin Murphy меня удивила (как всегда) она просто Богиня!!!!
