So it turns out that the video we posted for Katy Perry's "E.T." remix, which features a killer opening verse from Kanye West, wasn't the official version. Thank the good lord, because that shit was absurd. But you know what, so is the official video, which just hit the web. In this case, though, the absurdity is far more entertaining and much less seizure-inducing.
Perry's vocals and lyrics are still borderline grating, but director Floria Sigismondi's vision and oodles of special effects have made the track palatable. My only issue here is that it looks a bit too much like a trailer for the forthcoming Final Fantasy [whatever-number-they're-on-now] video game. Plus, you see a dude's ass.
