Who the hell thinks this is what the 80s was? Absolutely wrong.
If anything this would be more like the 90s camera work. I'd hate to know what else any of you think the 80s was.
Also, this is not Lady Gaga style nor is this anything to do with 'mocking'. This is Ayumi doing Lord knows what.

The part at the beginning is definitely representing the early 80s/late 70s of Japan. However the rest of the video is not 80s at all, so I don't get that comparison. It seems a lot of people here weren't even born in the 80s yet.
And I'm just barely old enough to remember it myself.
And I actually don't like the Lady Gaga comparisons. I actually saw Lady Gaga once live. (she was an opening act) I wasn't impressed at all. No offense meant to her fans, but I thought the music was average at best, she looked ridiculous, the lyrics were childish, and she lip synced most of the time.(or at least had a very loud backing track, which when its that loud you may as well be lip syncing) Aside from having a kind of weird image/presentation, I don't see anything that's special about her. I think its kind of an insult to compare Ayu to her actually....It's not like Lady Gaga is the first person to ever wear sunglasses or latex suits...
