I feel stupid I can't even figure this video out...LOL
So...I thought in the beginning he chokes her in the tub but I guess it's not the case in the end...I'm not sure. That was confusing...it's a really cool, dark video but you know...it's not very clear. The bathtub scene reminded me of Britney's Everytime but better...

The guy dreamt that he killed Kelly to go be with his mistress, and she was haunting him on his way to meet her. But he wakes up at the end realizing none of it happened. Just as Kelly "wakes up" and realizes she isnt going to live this perfect life anymore, cause he's obviously a creep. Its something like that - I dig that its deep.

Yeah that makes sense...I heard the story about the real guy on the radio today. They were giving background on the song and he sounds like such a piece of crap...dumping Kelly and getting married super fast...no wonder she was so tortured over that relationship...

^ to his ex-girlfriend that he apparently was with while he was dating Kelly.
I think the water throughout the video represents his lies.

I think Kelly just showed em how to do an angry girl video LOL... everything else I've seen that's supposed to be angry just seems tame by comparison IMO.

This song didn't wow me like when I heard SUBG. When I first heard SUGB I was like who the fuck is that? Is that Kelly? and I instantly loved it and the video. This song and video just dosen't do it for me. A total let down.

I know it's been posted before but this thread moves so fast.
Can anyone provide the latest list of Kelly's scheduled tv appearances, particularly those where she will be performing?
Thanks.

Video kicks butt. Very, very well written. LOVE the 'stepford wife' scenes haha Oh and the holding his face and screaming in his ear = LOVE haha And the angry kiss and jerking his head back BWAH.
They said she will be there next Thursday, in person, right? Guess I'll need to set my dvr again then heh
I think this is gonna give this song a total shot in the arm. I can totally see it pushing her bullet back up over 1000 by the beginning of next week *crosses fingers*

that scene where she gets hit with water is the one I am still trying to figure out - it comes at the climax of the song - so it must mean something. My thought about the water is that it's metaphoric. Like, her coming to the realization that this isn't the perfect relatoinship and that he's a lying scumbag cheat is like getting hit in the face with a bucket of cold water. Hence, her getting hit with the water in the video is her waking up point - when it all becomes painfully clear to her. That's just how I interpret it

Kelly looks hot, I'll give her that. It's not my favorite video of all time or anything, but I'd rate it higher than most of her previous videos. She's definitely maturing as a video artist. Love the stuff at the airport the best.

Thanks. Now, I can set my tivo. I don't understand the 'big show' with Ellen. Does that mean we'll get to see more than one performance? Do you think she'll sing Never Again at all of these?

The thing I absolutely love about three of Kelly's videos (BTHE, BOY, and now NA) is the different potential interpretations that can be made by the various wicked imagery (the bathtub scenes, the Stepword housewife scenes, the last scene in NA), something which should be brillianted credited to Kelly's directors and more impressively to Kelly herself, since she wrote the treatments for all of those videos. For comparison, I did not care for the videos for MI or WA (kinda lame), but I enjoyed that tracks.
As much as I already loved NA, the song, it will now have a thoughtful visual meaning to me everytime I hear it on the radio or give it a spin of my own. THAT to me is the definition of an effective music video: one that not only effectively conveys the artistic and musical interpretation of the song, but also is often and easily visualized when a song is heard by it's audience . To that I must say, Kelly is above masterful, especially at such an "early" stage in her career.
There will always be people to whom a song does not appeal; similary, there will be those and potentially other people who don't "get" an artistic video, simply because it does not appeal to them or possibly because the video may be on another wavelength than them, especially since some of those very same people are likely used to the superficial, mindless, cheap imagery that makes up the bulk of music videos today. I am by no means suggesting that this video is sooo deep that it requires a Ph.D. level discourse to explain it's covert and overt meanings, but relative to music videos in the past 10-15 years, this is nothing short of artistic brilliance, including her acting abilities in her videos, which are also impressively noteworthy. What amazes me even more is that this same person possses a voice that IMO is in the Top 5-10% of female vocalists of all time.
I think it is now safe to that: THE FUN PART OF THE 'MY DECEMBER' ERA HAS JUST BEGUN !!!

Sorry about that. Ellen's show is going to be her 3rd annual "Show in the Park" and so far Kelly is the only guest. That might change when the time gets closer, but that's how it is at the moment. Kanye and Gwen did the last two shows.
She should be singing NA on all the shows. We'll get an extra song on Kimmel since she's doing the outdoor concert thing there and I'm hoping for several on Ellen. Maybe she'll mix it up some.
