Panic! At the Disco: Emperor's New Clothes (2015 Music Video) User Reviews

Best music video ever

[Nerdy_Panda · 10/10 · 19 January 2016]

This video is pure amazing. The director, Cloud Campus has done an amazing job with this sequel to "This is Gospel", another great music video. This music video stars Brendon Urie going into the light after the end of " This Is Gospel" and what happens to him. He basically goes to hell. He then undergoes some changes, which he later accepts. The change? He's turning into Satan. It's an amazing video well done with amazing special effects. The song in itself was the first Panic! Song I listened to, and it was amazing. The video is a little creepy especially at the end, so I would recommend this to fans of Panic! 11 or under. I am shocked that this video only has 20 million views. It deserves more than that for this piece of art. If you are a Panic! Fan and have not seen this video yet, you should watch it. Brendon Urie delivers a better performance as Satan than anyone. The makeup artists did an amazing job with it. The camera is fast paced and at some points makes it seem extremely real

All effects, zero substance

These 3.5 minutes we got here are the music video for "Emperor's New Clothes" by "Panic! At the Disco". This was releasedback in 2015 and apparently follows up on another work / music video from this band/singer. The writer/director here is Daniel 'Cloud' Campos, a pretty multi-talented fella looking at his body of work. Anyway, I will give them that seeing this one with a video is better than just listening to the song and this is not something you can really say about most music videos. However, this is not necessarily a compliment in this case. It is a loud work, if anything, and the singing is extremely mediocre. The track itself also isn't too catchy and I guess they tried to hide it with all the costumes, make-up and effects they put in here. I can't let them get away with it. A weak song and a mediocre music video are the result. It's probably closer to one star than to three for me personally and I have zero interest in seeing the previous one or any other works by Brendon Urie. A prime example of style over substance from the music industry. Certainly not recommended.
