On September
18th, Lady Gaga officially released her new single, “Til It Happens to You,” to
the acclaim of critics and fans everywhere.
The song was written for the documentary film “The Hunting Ground,” and
is comprised of Lady Gaga backed by a largely string-based orchestra.
Accompanying
“Til It Happens to You,” is a music video, even more haunting than the song
itself. The music video portrays several
realistic scenes, beginning with a series of girls interacting with various
future-attackers.
This is the
most important song of the year, successfully tackling one of the most difficult
issues to discuss--sexual assault--and initiating the conversation that many
try to avoid.
