Rihanna - We Found Love

Rihanna's released her new video: We Found Love
. . .

 4 minutes and 37 seconds of gritty and intense beauty:

"You almost feel ashamed that someone could be that important, that without them, you feel like nothing"

"and when its over, and its gone, you almost wish you could have all that bad stuff bad, so you can have the good."

Pulls you in right from the start

The visuals are just so right

Exquisite stuff

Grungy yet gentle 

Sweet, youthful and rebellious

Harsh destruction

It's mesmerizing to watch

So real, you can feel these characters

"We found love in a hopeless place . . . "

And Ms. Rihanna

She's really selling this "good-girl-gone-extremely-bad" image

It's working

The styling rocks

Her acting is on point

She looks alluring in her own mess

And the song
 Beautiful

Definitely one of my all-time favorite videos

(closely tied with Kanye's Runaway)
