Lady Gaga - G.U.Y. | Music Reaction

[@blackmetal101]

G.U.Y. Stands for “girl under you.” Essentially she’s swapping gender roles and saying she’s ok being underneath a man sexually, but she still wants to hold the power over him. It’s basically a power bottom anthem.

[@BeardsBrains]

thank you for that explanation 🙇🏻‍♂️🙇🏻‍♀️

[@blackmetal101]

@@BeardsBrains as for the music video, she was trying to create a new breed of man at the end. She ended up fighting back against the corporate pigs at the beginning that used her as a money making machine. Replaced them with clones made from the dna of more “respectable” men.

[@catseuphori]

Oh so its my anthem dominant bottoms 🫢😌

[@jeansnow1116]

To help you in the understanding of this music video, Lady Gaga directed some months after her team gave her up because her team disagrees with the decisions she wanted to take for ARTPOP era that created a confusing in public minds which made this album less successful than planned. So she promised to wrap up this album correctly then she made this MV showing at the begining how people around her were just here for money and thinking she was a cash machine, but they didn't care of her as an artist etc. The meaning of G.U.Y. (Girl under you) is a feminist song that is less simplistic than usual feminism message since it says basically "I feel confident enough to decide to be under when I'm having sex" which is also a metaphor to say that it's fine to define your own role no matter if you're a man or a woman, you can be that guy or that G.U.Y. so that's the pun She also bring A LOT of art and pop culture references in this MV

I didn’t know that wow,

[@BeardsBrains]

thank you for this explanation 🙏🙏🙏

[@zerak_5666]

Please react!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

[@Juansgh]

Yep, she said this was about being a power bottom, like she is. And just to go into details in the video. You can see in the beggining the people who's fighting for the money are the ones who shot her down (they've got the bow when they're leaving) Then she's being reborn and she resurrects 4 men, Michael Jackson, John Lennon (he's in the credits), Gandhi and Jesus and they take their blood to create the perfect G.U.Y, (and also make an army of them). When she has those, she goes to that office and shoots money 'cause she knows that's the only thing they care about so she can kill the men in charge and take control. Notice how she's the one that "kills" them, but then the perfect G.U.Y is the one that will stay at the office.

[@macipiink]

i love the way she says "guy = girl under you" and "GIRL = Guy I Romance & Love" and "know you'll wear my make up well" with the roll reversal.

[@daltonburkhalter8381]

I thought it was " Guy I Really Love " 😅😅

[@anaemiliaalmeida7238]

I thought it meant: Guy In Real Life!!!!

[@volcrazy89]

The women in the pink playing the instruments in the 'dream' sequence are the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Also, in the video they resurrect some of the 'greatest' men in history in Jesus, Ghandi and Michael Jackson. (There were four pods, and the fourth was said to be John Lennon, who wasn't included in the video, possibly because his family objected to it, but that was the rumor.) They used them to clone all the other guys who were in black, and they were supposed to replace all the corporate sleezeballs that you see her and the Real Housewives killing at the end -- those were part of her attackers at the start of the video. This song is all about power vs. gender and sexuality. That she can be the 'weaker' sex and be submissive in bed but still hold the power in the relationship "I wanna wear the tie, I want the power to leave you, I'm aiming for full control of this love"

[@BeardsBrains]

thank you for this 🙏🙏

Please react 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@littleking5257]

The storyline is a huge metaphor. Men from the industry shoot her down in the beginning, take all her money, and leave her after they don’t have any more use of her. She goes to the castle and is rehabilitated through recognizing where we are as a culture in pop rn (all the BRAVO Real House wives references). She resurrects iconic figures that had reputations for spreading love and care then harvests their DNA to create the ideal G.U.Y. She then takes them to the offices of all the show business men that left her for dead and replaces them with the clones she believes will help move show business in a better direction😁

[@lucasgodoi9052]

It is not because she is the bottom, that she needs to be submissive to her boyfriend, basically that is what the song is about, and also about changing roles. At the end of the video, all of those guys were created by Gaga with the blood of Jesus, Michael, Mahatma and John Lennon, they are the perfect human being so they will never betray anyone like those first guys did in the beginning of the video.

[@lil_weasel219]

John Lennon was a kinda problematic individual imo but thats just me kek

[@lilianagrey9463]

Lady gaga is camp personified

[@veppilorenzo]

Basically what you see at the beginning is Gaga, a phoenix rising from the ashes after she’s been ‘robbed’ by cash hungry men. It refers to her former manager and team, with who she split on the night ARTPOP was released. It was kind of the beginning of the end for the album/era, as no one believed in it. Fun fact, she put her own money into making this music video, as her record label didn’t believe in it anymore and didn’t want to fund it. Also she was the first to shoot at this location (Hearst Castle) since 1960.

[@hortytub13]

You should do Chromatica I with Alice from Chromatica ❤️✌🏻 The ladies are from Real Housewives

[@matheusnascimento8268]

Yeah I remember! There ladies are Lisa Vanderpump, Yolanda Hadid and the sisters Kim & Kyle Richards.

[@brooklynations]

Her label didn't want to pay for this video. So she did it herself.

[@Shaykron]

[@my0freedome]

It’s almost midnight in here so glad to watch u guys before going to bed

[@Chris-hq5xc]

I ve never been this early

[@Kolious_Thrace]

I’m so glad that you said Greek Mythology and not Roman!!! Most of the people believe that! In reality, the Romans adopted their religion from Hellas🇬🇷 our nation’s real name is Hellas. Romans named us Graecia… All of their Gods were Hellene Gods with their names translated to Latin! Aphrodite became Venus Zeus became Jupiter Hera became Juno Athena became Minerva Hestia became Vesta Poseidon became Neptune Ares became Mars Artemis became Diana… etc etc Gaga said Eros, son of Aphrodite Èros was that son of Aphrodite with Ares Only in the Hellenic language there is this distinction In English you say Love But in Hellas we have αγάπη/agàpi mean that we live someone or something But we also have the word Έρωτας/Èrotas That comes from Èros which in Latin translated as Cupid This video clip is full of Hellenic mythology! First, we see Gaga like a Siren. In Hellenic mythology Sirens were female bird-like creatures. In Hollywood they created the false icon of Sirens being mermaids! Gaga looks like a Siren or a Harpy. They we see something I wasn’t expecting! There are few people that they know about the resurrection of Dionysus. I’m going to explain the huge background of the myth but Dionysus (the God of wine, fertility..etc) was killed and his was resurrected. There was a huge celebration for the Resurrection of Dionysus especially in his homeland, Thrace part of Hellas🇬🇷 Gaga showed as dead and then she was resurrected like Dionysus did! Then, we see her on a bed on top of water and some ferrymen passing around her. Firstly, the room is filled with Hellenic motifs and mosaics. The people on boats in the water look like Charon, the ferryman taking the souls and passing them on the other side of the river so they can move on. Also, Gaga appears in a bed looking like a shell showing again the birth of Aphrodite and there are two statues of Apollo and Artemis, two other Hellene Gods! We also see her is this “kinda-military” golden uniforms holding bows and arrows. A clear reference to the Amazons. This video is filled with Hellenic mythology, icons, architecture, Gods… of Hellas🇬🇷

G.U.Y= Girl Under You G.I.R.L= Guy, Im Romancing Love

[@ZakhadWOW]

I actually think its Guy In Real Life (IRL noramlly short for In Real Life)

[@ethangaga9877]

the meanings behind the intro and throughout the video are men have always shot her down (fallen angel with arrow stabbing her in the back), used her (money wise or emotionally, with those men running away with the money they’ve earned off her), left broken/hurt. so she wants to take control and be that G.U.Y. (Girl Under You), to wear the tie and take control in the relationship/industry herself.

[@mertmitm]

I work for a movie and modeling agency in LA and we actually worked on the video with Gaga. Her old team left her, hence why she directed most of the music video. We had less than a week to come up with the concepts AND shoot the video. The song was about a lot of the things you guys already mentioned: gender roles and confidence. Gaga said that the "love me love me please retweet" line is a reference to the retweet symbol on Twitter, which looks like 69. She said that the song is about being the dominant person in a relationship even in traditionally none dominant positions, which is symbolized through being the Girl Under You (G.U.Y.) during intercourse, but still being the G.U.Y., guy referring to the dominant part. I'm pretty sure that I'm allowed to say this, since Gaga was very public with it as well, but the Music video however is a reference to her old team, that dropped her, when she broke her hip during a concert and couldn't work for 9 months. The men in the suits that are chasing the money, while she is lying there wounded, is the direct reference to her team, that left her when she injured herself and couldn't work anymore. She then wanders through the desert, reference to the depression she went through, hoping to find help. At the castle she is being revived and returns stronger than ever and eventually takes the blood of "real men" like Michael Jackson and creates an army of real men with their DNA, referring to her new team, which is not only worrying about the money, but also about her as a human being. They then invade the building of her old team and kill them.

The GUY track basically means she wants the power in the relationship. and on the music video, at the beginning she was shot down with an arrow for money afterwards she was reborn and take revenge to the men who used her for money. she replaced them with a clone with blood of Jesus, Michael Jackson and Ghandi.

I think long story short the video is about comparing sex positions (bottom, top, guy, girl, Greek references) that hold a certain degree of dominance to power in the music industry. Under her new management she's the boss.
