Funny.
Judas + Yoü & I (BoomKack) >>> Alejandro + Telephone (professionals)

You can't use circular reasoning as receipts for such a claim. Actually, you can't even make such a claim since so much relies on personal taste.
Personally, I loved Telephone
because it was a hot mess. It was perfectly in tune with the underlying meaning of the song and it was -in my opinion- brilliantly executed. I'll concede that the concept of the video may not have been appealing to most BUT just imagine how much of a disaster it would've been
without the guiding hand of a professional director!
The way I see it, if she wants to do her concepts and have no conceptual input from a director, fine. But at least have one there to smooth the edges and not make it such a choppy mess. Even Y&I which is the first video of the era that I thoroughly enjoyed took me a few watches to understand thanks to the abysmal editing.
