The video for Lady Gaga’s song “Yoü & I” has hit the web. Says Gaga of the clip: “The idea [is] when you’re away from someone that you love, it’s torture. I knew I wanted the video to be about sprinting back and walking hundreds of thousands of miles to get him back.” Along the way, she also dresses as a mermaid and has sex with her Bob Dylan-looking alter ego, Jo Calderone. Sorry to all those hoping for mermaid sex.
The video officially premieres on MTV on Thursday night. Lady Gaga’s latest LP, Born This Way, is out now.
