however, i really dont think shes out to sell as many albums as she can, or become as famous all over the world as she can be. the sound of Carnival Ride is the clearest indication that these are not her goals. based on what she says in interviews, i think she wants to have a career that shes proud of, and one where she can look back and smile, knowing she stayed true to her values. maybe her values will prevent her from expanding her fanbase, but that is her choice to make. if you feel frustrated, then i think you may continue to feel so

anyway, this is a video of a 'no sense' song. theres really no sense in it. its just silly fun, and so is the video. i did not expect to see so much discussion about it. and if you want to pick apart every music video for every little detail, you could do that for every single video.

you've expressed how shes potentially inhibiting her growth with such a video. point taken. i dont really agree with you but i can see where you are coming from. we all know where you stand already. but to keep saying the same point over and over is bit too much. those who disagree with you are not going to change their opinion just because you stated it a few more times than everyone else did. i know youre not going to change yours even after reading so many who disagree.

i think its time for everyone to move on. the video is out and lets see how things shape out. i just spent the past 30 minutes reading the posts in this thread and all i see is people going back and forth restating their opinions. there is no new insight in the last few pages ive gone over
I respect your opinion and I agree that there is no point in further discussing it. My essential point was that the video came across too Disney for me and I want her to go for a more mature look/audience. She will eventually. I am just disappointed because we haven't seen the sales jump like we did when BHC came out and I think the cheesey video is partly responsible

Either way, I am a member of her fanclub and will continue to support her 100%.

Now... lets see how the videos for JAD and GOOTT turn out!!!
