Beyonce’ and the good folks of beyonceworld.net must have seen my tweets requesting a video for countdown, well maybe not but my wish came true! The visual for “Countdown” will be presented to the world this Thursday, Oct. 6. From the sneak peek it looks like the video will give off a 1960’s vibe!
For this video Bey is channeling her inner Audrey Hepburn in the classic black turtleneck/slim-fit cigarette pants Audrey made instantly iconic. This track is one of my favorite songs from Beyonce’s “4” album. The video surely reminds me of “Why Don’t You Love Me” a bit , without the smeared mascara. Countdown is all about fun and was directed by Adria petty.
Beyoncé turns into a human clock behind a classic 1960s psychedelic, black-and-white-striped background, then a human art gallery as she morphs into a series of Lichtenstein girls come to life in primary-colored bathing suits. All this before “Countdown,” which samples Boyz II Men’s “Uhh Ahh,” starts referencing The Beatles’ “A Hard Day’s Night” split-screen motifs.
So I guess she made good on her lyrics of “I’m tryna make us 3/from that 2” Beyonce’ is embracing her belly/pregnancy in this video and we LOVE IT! Baby Carter in 5,4,3,2,1 well more like 2012.
Countdown until the world premiere begins NOW!
