I love this..But I think 'Starring Role' should be the 2nd single.

Nice cover! Remind me of the Family Jewels cover. Excited for the video!

Great video. :)
At first I didn't think this was the best choice for the next single but somehow the video made me see it's commercial appeal. This could do pretty well with enough support.

Video's a bit basic and uninspired - what's with the random splashes of paint and water? But she looks the sexiest she's ever looked in a video! I love the bits where she's bent backwards near the chair! :P

The song edit is too short. It was less than 4 minutes - didn't need editing.
:-?

The video is a bit disappointing, especially as most of her videos have been really fantastic! I think this is a good choice of single but I think "Lies", "Bubblegum Bitch", "Starring Role" or "Homewrecker" could be singles too.

Her most boring video to date, kind of pointless - it doesn't say anything about the journey of Electra Heart nor does it relate very much to the song itself. Where's the struggle and fighting? The suspicion and the scheming?

She looks beautiful though, you're right Blondini! However, Oh No! is the sexiest she's looked in my opinion.

Surely the second comment deserves a :P :P . Balances out the basicness. I wouldn't give it a :cry: at all.
