Alejandro

the men arent gay. there is no man in love with another man. <br />

hot theory tho lol

She's saying goodbye to all her past lovers. It's symbolic to her moving on.

LMAO, that's a pretty interesting POV, but I agree with the others. I'm sure they aren't gay.

I think the song is about three captors of hers. Alejandro, Fernando, and Roberto. She originally fell for one of them, but she's trapped by the three of them. She's fed up. She doesn't want to do anything for them after the way she's been treated by them. "Don't bother me, don't wanna kiss, don't wanna touch, I'm not your babe".<br /> <br /> She's being kept prisoner almost in this trifecta relationship with Alejandro being the main cause. "Stop, please, just let me go. Alejandro, just let me go". She wants to leave but she can't.<br /> <br /> In the end, she ends up having to kill the three of them to leave. She says even though she loves them, or has loved them at one point, she will not be treated this way. "You know that I love you boy. Hot like mexico, rejoice." When she begins "at this point" she talks about a choice. The choice to break free from them or to submit to them. She has nothing to lose if she tries to break free, she's already in the worst situation possible.<br /> <br /> In the second verse, she explains why she hasn't done anything up to this point to fight this. "She's not broken she's just a baby," meaning that she's not messed up, she has just been incapable of understanding this situation until now. "her boyfriend is like her dad". this girl has been with Alejandro so long that she's lost lust for him and has almost become attached to her as a father figure because of Stockholm syndrome perhaps starting to manifest itself. But now, she's realized everything about this situation. She must kill them. "Gotta cool the bad" (after she talks about flames).<br /> <br /> But the most important part is the first verse where she mentions that she hides true love in her pocket. She hides it from them so she won't get hurt anymore and they can't even try to hurt it. When she talks about the halo. It's about her innocence and the power of that innocence. She can manipulate them if done correctly to lure them into a defenseless position and strike. She has more power than she realized she had.<br /> <br /> Anyways, i know its a very different way of looking at the song. But it has to do with fear of commitment, fear in others, fear of the future which goes along with The Fame Monster which is all about the dark side of fame and the fears that are attached.

Ahhhh, that is ridiculous.<br />

No no no, she is a whore who is currently having sex with 3 guys. That's why she says I'm not your babe. She's saying I'm not your babe I'm your sex buddy. It's not real love. I also think she is symbolizing pirnstars who do guys three at a time: they are not broken, just given up. They smoke a lot to. She has both hands also means she has both hands on two weaners. She won't look at u cuz she doesn't love u, she is getting paid to do it. The whole song is about how she wants out of porn and.one giy.<br /> <br /> <br /> Great song love it<br /> <br /> email me on my theory:Sam_brunn@yahoo.com

i think revo is on to something... by telling them to "Just smoke my cigarette and hush" she is essentially killing them, cus cigarettes kill.

Oh you're pretty accurate actually... She recently said in an interview that this song was about the "... purity of my relationships with my gay friends..." so, I agree with your thought....

She is saying; he told her not to call him his real name, but, these 3 names. Alejandro - meaning; defender! Fernando - Meaning; intelligent! Raberto - Meaning; fame! Hope this makes sense and helps.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />

She is saying; he told her not to call him by his real name, but, to use the 3 given in the words. Alejandro - meaning; defender! Fernando - meaning; intelligent! Roberto - meaning; fame! She is in love with her defender, whom is intelligent, and has fame. Hence-------------------Fame Monster. But, his real identity must stay between the 2 of them.

lady gaga is a gay, lesbian, bi, activist and is bi herself so that idea can actually make sense.

To me, revovichfan12's theory is most logical. <br /> <br />

omg, stfu people. mad about the boy is dead right.<br /> <br /> “the purity of my friendships with my gay friends, and how I’ve been unable to find that with a straight man in my life. It’s a celebration and an admiration of gay love–it confesses my envy of the courage and bravery they require to be together. In the video I’m pining for the love of my gay friends–but they just don’t want me to be with them.”<br /> <br /> <br />

well i share with you the same opinion, but i was surprised to see that none commented on the other visuals in that video! i mean besides that "love" story or whatever, what about the flipped cross? and some other anti-christ symbols that she made? eating the rosary? i'd like to understand more about that..

i think that the guys might be gay.........they have fishnets, heels and bowlcuts in the video.....

What do you mean "and their screwed up ways"? GaGa is not homophobic -.-

mtv.com/news/articles/1641136/20100609/lady_gaga.jhtml<br /> this will explain meaning at the bottom of the article

ALEJANDRO=defender and protector of man(GOD).<br /> FERNANDO=ardent for peace and bravery(JESUS).<br /> ROBERTO=bright and shining(HOLY SPIRIT).<br /> Incorporated this into the lyrics:<br /> "Don't call my name don't call my name Alejandro(God)"<br /> "I'm not your Babe (child) I'm not your Babe (child)Fernando(Jesus)"<br /> "Don't call my name don't call my name Roberto(Holy Spirit)"<br /> <br /> <br /> GaGa is saying that she doesn't want anything to do with God, and she has given herself to Satin.

I like your first idea, it makes sense and ties all the names together

At a first glance, it seems as if it is a simple song saying that she is fed up with the recent men she's been with and wants to move on. That very well could be what the song is about; however, the music video makes me think it means something much deeper and has a hidden message. All the male dancers do look very gay in the song and Gaga certainly isn't wanting to get away from them. If she was trying to get away the she wouldn't be stripping in front of them and letting them handle her like she does. Then there are tons of random religious objects and themes in the video which have nothing to do with getting away from the guys. If Alejandro, Fernando, and Roberto do represent the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost then the music video and lyrics connect very well. It would mean that she is throwing her previous religious life away, wanting nothing to do with God, and moving forward by being as rebellious and worldly as she can. Either that or Gaga just made a very weird, random, crazy music video that had little to do with the lyrics she is singing, which I wouldn't doubt, either.

I kind of agree with alienator. The song DOES have something to do with gays. It's a "tribute" to the Don't ask Don't tell policy. She is strolngly against it and thats what this song symbolises.<br /> <br /> As for the religious parts; Catholics are also well known for being against homosexuality. The religious things, i think, means she can't decide whether to believe in God or to be a gay defender.

Personally, I'd like to view it as she is in a relationship with Alejandro, but then she meets a girl, and now, she has to choose between the two. I mean, hey, she's bisexual! It could be it!

i have read most of these comments and i do believe we are wasting our time - this is a silly song, great beat - but meaningless.<br /> real life relationships are not like the one depicted. it is videos such as these that make young people think so. especially when they are indeed at an impressionable y oung age 13 - 18.<br /> i saw the video and thought to myself - what could this possibly mean - and while all of you have commented cleverly you guys and gals are really raising the intellectual level of the song. the laugh is on us while lady gaga laughs all the way to the bank. <br /> <br /> the lyrics are ok but really they mean nothing. the video is awful. anyone agree with me?

HEYYY GUYYSSS! You all seem pretty confused on the meaning of this song. so basically, aljenadro is about gay love and its affiliation with christians. see, you rent allowed to be gay in churches. in the song, she says She's got both hands in her pocket<br /> And she won't look at you<br /> Won't look at you<br /> She hides true love en su bolsillo<br /> She's got a halo around her finger<br /> Around you<br /> <br /> lady gaga is saying that religion is the 'she' and she wont look at you, only shun you because your gay. and alejandro and the rest of the other names are differant names for god around the eauro-spanish culture. This song isnt about sex. Its deeper. and in the video when she strips off her clothes, it symbolyzes her stripping the religion off of her. Basically the song is a putdown towards religion and saying, do what you do, not what god says, let go of religion, love a guy if your a guy, be gay, be lesbian. Want proof? go to just about every website, ask what the meaning is, and they all agree. SO GET UR FACTS STRAIGHTTTTTT

i really feel like you guys have no idea what your talking about... did you even read her interview, or do research? its about gay marriage. look it up.

@gagalove27 satin? lol i didn't know lady gaga loved that type of fabric THAT much
