I would just like to mention that Grace Jones has always freaked me out after seeing her in Conan the destroyer and a view to a kill so seeing her in this video after so long reminded me of those movies, but that is not what i am here talking about.
No other performer could pull this off as well as she did in my opinion, her voice gives such a cold and serious tone but also a playful tune like a cat playing with a mouse, mixed with the lyrics it makes me think about how our world is run by this electronic form that needs us but also controls us.
The use of 'warping' gives her an inhuman appearance that i am not sure about other viewers but i think reacts to the basic human psyche of not seeing something normal from a human, desaturation also helped give this deception of the being not being human but also leading to the more defined mouth and eyes.
"Corporate Cannibal, Digital Criminal", technology and us or just for fun. most people who don't look into hidden meanings will probably say that it was all just for fun but when i see Grace warping and using strange irregular movements while singing it all looks alien which may symbolise the little i know about the corporate cannibal as an form in this world rather than catchy lyrics.
I have seen Grace in this multiple times and she shows a lot more feminine approach to some of the other media she has presented which i think shows that this has relevance to her that makes her present more in her role.
If someone came over to me and said what do you think in a brief period of time i would of said it was weird but after re watching it i probably would listen to it again just as reference material to see how to deliver a point without blurting it out since it is very well done.
