Somebody help me — I can’t stop writing about Justin Bieber! Perhaps it shall end here, because this is my least favorite out of his music videos I’ve reviewed. The whole thing is rather drab: the color scheme, the lack of interesting visuals (I’m not really into dancing dolls or elves; they were talented but I’d rather watch Biebs dance), the random and useless scenes from Arthur Christmas, etc. Nevertheless, Justin is seriously passionate in this mv. Look at the way he clutches his clothing and sings to the sky!
Patently hyperbolic as usual, Gawker accuses Bieber of ruining the “entire nerd subculture” of steampunk. Even the Washington Post has gotten in on the action, though for me, the most surprising thing about that article was that random Tumblrs are now considered credible news sources. Huh. Anyway, all the little steampunk hipsters should calm down and go back to making clocks and wearing monocles.
