Lady Gaga's "You and I" Video Premiere
Quote:The song "You and I" is essentially a rock and roll ballad. It features Queen's Brian May on guitar. For many pop music fans, the first time they heard "You and I" was when American Idol contestant Haley Reinhart covered the song before the release of the Born This Way album. "You and I" logged one week in the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 back in June.

I prefer the version Haley did. Compare the two:
It will be interesting to see what shape the video takes.

Business Insider: Quote:Lady Gaga released her new music video for “Yoü and I” via her 1,000th tweet Tuesday afternoon.
Surprise -- it's bizarre. Even for Gaga.
In addition to cameos from "her male alter ego, Jo Calderone," there's a wedding, a creepy ice cream truck in the middle of a field, and dancing in a horse stable.
Oh, and mermaid sex.
Gaga's tweet read, "You must love all + every part of me, as must I, for this complex + incomprehensible force to be true."
Fine. But Gaga needs to remember there's a difference between thought-provoking and attention-getting. Unless we're missing the social metaphor hidden in mermaid sex.
(By the way, we're kind of surprised Gaga's doing anything with this song -- didn't seem like she had plans for it when she let Haley Reinhart sing it on "American Idol" in May.)
Watch below.
Looks like they decided life in Nebraska was too boring. Personally I would have gone with the crop circles and aliens approach to spice things up.

This comment was made on YouTube yesterday:
Quote:Haley Fan's, listen up, Haley in person is AWESOME! She's almost 21 but she looks 14! That young woman is so sweet it's amazing! She signed all of our CD's Programs, took pictures, Haley is FINE AND 1ST class young woman! She said she is going the GaGa route with a jazzy bluesy rockin feel...
I assume that means how Haley performed "You and I" on American Idol, not the pop version. That would make sense as Jimmy is the one who gave her the song.
