Britney Spears - ...Baby One More Time

Since I posted an overview of Britney let's look intricately to her music videos before and now.

Britney Spears’ first video release was ‘…Baby One More Time’, which was released in 1998. It was a video that really got Britney famous on many levels. It conveyed her to be a very innocent girl but with a sort of ‘bad side’ that goes against the norms. Because in this video she is in a Catholic school but dresses in ‘her own way’ and does specific moves that seem quite, well, ‘sexy’. Now, for a teenager to be seen as a sexy icon and worse; to be shown that way is pretty ‘bad’, am I right? But, it was done and people ate it up pretty well.

It starts off in a seemingly innocent way; Britney bored, tapping her foot and her pen over her book. But then if you stop and think about how we got to her face...  

We get a zoom-in into her foot and she's wearing grey long 'stockings' but if you look around her the other girls aren't. Hmm...

Then;

Her innocent face but with obviously a bit too much make-up on. They made her look 'natural' before why not now?

Anyway, by now we can tell (after seeing the teacher etc) that she is in a Catholic School of sorts.

So the song starts as soon as the bell rings with a over-voice of
"Oh baby baby"; 

Now, for every 'fantasy', like every culture/religion/society, there is a stereo-type. The 'fantasy school girl' always has on a very short frilly skirt, usually stripped, stockings or long socks of some sort, a white shirt that is tied up in front showing off their belly buttons and stomachs, showing some cleavage and usually a bow of some sort in their hair. Does that not match the picture above? It might not be colorful but that's just to show her innocence and this video shows the manipulation of it.

She starts to sing;

"Oh baby, baby

How was I supposed to know

That something wasn't right here";

In other words; 'how was she supposed to know that this would all be 'wrong' or she wouldn't understand what to do'.

The picture above shows you her dazzling white innocence that is being blurred around the edges, so her 'bad side' is coming through. As well she is being 'illuminated' from behind so forced into 'illumination', thus 'illuminaati'?

As she continues singing we see more student join her dancing as if carried by the music.

"Show me, how you want it to be"

When she says "show"; 

She seems to be reaching out to her 'lover', asking, pleading, for assistance. Show me, tell me, I don't know. Which again shows blurriness in her own mind, she can't make decisions, she doesn't know what's right anymore.

"me"; 

She's the only one with both her hands on her 'heart' showing how much more of an affection she has than the rest. Again, still illuminated from behind.

"Tell me baby"

 Again she wants to be told, she can't figure it out on her own.

When she says the word "baby";

They all lean forward and, well for the lack of better words and excuse my language but; 'shake their tatas'. Hence, is a sexual sign to her 'baby'. Which tells us; the sexual trauma instilled on her. But she doesn't recognise it as that or realize what happened.

Now for the chorus;

"My loneliness is killing me

(And I)

I must confess I still believe

(Still believe)

When I'm not with you I lose my mind

Give me a sign

Hit me baby one more time"

Looking at that is just shocking because, if you think about it, she's been so controlled she can't live without her 'handler's', or 'lovers' as she now referrs to them. She's lonely, confused, so she has been forced to feel that she can't live without them because they are now what make her, because they essentially made her into who she is now. 

She loses her mind because without them it starts to de-programme hence causing her so much agony of remembering the awful memories so she needs them to keep her 'sane'.

The line "Hit me baby one more time" speaks for itself really. Hit her again to keep her here because here is where she wants to be and by here I mean with her 'handlers'. She's a victim and victim's always feel safe with their victimizers because they are all the victim knows and they verbally and mentally abuse them into thinking that they are doing good for them and with them is the safest place the victim can ever be.

When she says the word "must" in the line "I must confess", we see;

Now, doesn't this look familiar?

This is the Baphomet. It is a symbol of occultism and Satanism, used in many cults.

Thorughout history cults all having slightly different visions of its appearance but most practically the same. The picture above is the one that is the most known.

The Baphomet originated a long time ago, 11th century , but was revived in the 19th century as a product of Christian folklore concerning pagans. (Will talk more about it and its history in another post.)

In short, The Baphomet represents the duality of everything in life; male and female, good and evil, night and day, and Heaven and Hell (hence the hands one pointing up and the other downward).

 As well as this, the Baphomet shows a union of those opposite forces thus creating a new, stronger force. Occultists believe that through the master of life force one is able to produce 'magik' and 'spiritual enlightenment' (Illuminati). Hence, creating a 'third eye', the 'all-seeing' eye of the Illuminati.

Back to Britney; why would she be using this pose? Another way to ensure us that the Illuminati is about Satanism. And her pose shows us that she is in it because she has now been given this 'third-eye' and has been 'illuminated'. As well, she is looking down as she does this pose;

Is she ashamed or is she telling us who she worships?

She goes onto sing;

"Oh baby, baby
The reason I breathe is you
Now, boy you got me blinded

I bet you baby
There's nothing that I would not do, no
It's not the way I planned it"

So, she can't live without him again and would do anything for him. She's 'blinded' because he is doing the seeing for her, he's telling her where to go, what to do, etc, so her sight is not needed.

When she starts on this verse she runs outside and all the student run after her, cheering, which symbolises what her fans will do. They will follow her, cheering.  

She then does a backward summer-sault and is escorted by two males;

Which shows her sexuality again; the Kitten programming at work. She is to become a sex icon, by using her dancing moves and body.  

When she says the word "do", in the line "There's nothing that I would not do" we see;

She has 6 fingers up, does that represent the devil's 666?

When she says "Show me how you want it to be" we see;

The famous 'devil horns'. A symbol over-used by the Illuminati, a sign that 'calls upon the devil' or is just a 'symbol for the devil and his evil horns'.

So, she's asking the devil to show her how he wants it to be so she can follow and obey.

She flashes it again multiple times, its as if her hands automatically go into that position;

So, it's indoctrinated in her.

Then;

They all drop like puppets on strings. Again, Marionnettes (talked about in Jessie J - Price Tag post), after she sings; "Hit me baby one more time" so they did hit her again and take control.

We see them dancing again but Britney is behind and we can't see her face; she is a faceless dancer at the moment because they have taken control.

Then again the 'devil horns';

Then a slow part of her sitting in the gym seemingly singing to her crush;

"Oh, baby, baby

How was I supposed to know?"

"Oh pretty baby,

I shouldn't have let you go?" 

While she's singing this we see;

She looks in his direction;

It seems that he looks at her or in her direction;

 But then he's gone?

So, is he a figment of her imagination?

And later I learn that her crush is actually her cousin. Why would they do a video with her cousin acting as her crush? I mean, there were so many other eligible guys there, why her cousin?

This seems to be a sort of pattern it happened in Avril Lavigne's 'Girlfriend' video; where the guy was her brother. What do they mean by this? Everything has a meaning so why portray lovers who are actually some sort of relative. Is it to show that things stay within the family? I'm not sure I'll try and find out.

"I must confess";

She and most of the other girls (except the one on the right on her bended knee reaching out) are hugging themselves. Is the confession painful for them? Do they not want to confess what they feel or know with the fear of being hurt ot hurting because of the feelings or memories?

The men seem to be reaching up so are they the power? However, the one male on the right, right next to Britney is reaching up with two hands. Now, to me this seems to be a sign of sexuality. The men behind reach up with one to show hetrosexuality, the man (who seems homesexual to me anyway because of his moves) with two hands up might be a sign of homosexuality.

Now, this is in no offence to anyone but I do believe that the Illuminati have tried to show homosexuality as something that is 'okay' and in a way with all the symbolism of it actually causes a lot of people to 'become' homosexuals.

"That my loneliness,";

If you look at the male right behind Britney with the white jersey and a visible '0' on it you can see he is showing the 'devil horns' and the other man opposite her with the black jersey over a white shirt is showing the same sign but with a different hand. Both are pointing upward and are on either side of Britney. This shows that this is all around her. And they seem very powerful and convey dominance. In addition, with her arms up like that she seems powerless and so they have the control and power over her.

We then see;

A subtler version of the 'Baphomet' sign again

"That you will be here";

The devil horns again. Straight after she flashes the 'all seeing eye';

"I must confess, I still believe";

Homosexuality VS hetrosexuality?

And again;

Seems to be the typical stereotype of a homosexual man and woman.

Then the teacher joins in;

This 'tune' is so infectious the teacher caught it as well, no one can help themselves, they have to join in. And again the blurriness kind of shows that something is amiss, something's strange.

Then the 'bell rings', everyone scatters and we see;

So, it was all a ‘day dream’? A ‘fantasy’? She did seem to like it so I would say ‘fantasy’.

So that explains the blurriness throughout the video right? Cause it now shows that she was daydreaming and they always use that effect when a person is dreaming or day dreaming. But, on the screen shot above, it still is blurry around the edges. So..?

As well, throughout the song, during the chorus' it sounded as if she wasn't the only one singing. Like there were more of her singing. Shows me how people will join in with her and another symbolism of multiple personalities.

 

(PS; with the homosexual remarks, do not mean to offend anyone, just my thoughts and remarks)
