I just watched rihanna's music video "s&m" on youtube.... i kinda like the song,tune but i was a bit disturbed by watching it... but i think many music videos of other artists are also starting to become much more racy so i think its the trend...maybe??? So i was wondering what are your thoughts and opinions about her new music video.. Just so you know this music video is banned in 11 countries unless "the edited song and music video" is released. Also if i remember correctly youtube also refuse to let youtube viewers to watched it unless they have an account and if they are below 18 yrs.old.....So share your opinions...

The song is very catchy alright but yes the video is kinda disturbing. I can totally understand why it was rated 18+ Anyway I like her voice even though her videos are kinda crazy these days. And the video S and M, I didn't get what the video was about lol.

But i think banning this in eleven countries is a bit too much...A bit racy and provocative and a bit disturbing but i think it is the audience discretion if they would like it or not.

Honestly, considering that the song is called "S&M" I thought the video was fairly tame. It's definitely not as racy as it could be considering the chorus, and I think it's intended to be more metaphorical (based on the use of the "media" in the video, but that could just be my interpretation.) It could be that I'm just jaded as far as the music industry is concerned, perhaps because the trend these days is to push boundaries and stir things up, but this doesn't bother me. I'm not sure that I can justify banning this video in 11 countries, but making it 18+ makes sense considering some of the outfits and suggestions.

yeah i think she was ranting about how the media treats her...Sigh...I think She's a good singer i don't think she needs all this drama for her song to be famous...
