Selena Gomez - Good For You (Official Video) [+ Review]


And just like we promised, the new Selena Gomez 'Good For You' music video (scroll to watch) is here, with a whole new stripped down version of the song, without A$AP Rocky's segment. 

The new version features a lot less backing track but seemingly more autotune with the singer's voice being more dominant. You can certainly hear Gomez better, but the previous version sounded more atmospheric. 

It's a bold choice, one that seems to be dividing fans who are fond of the new version and those who preferred the previous. Whatever the case, the music video fits the new 'bare' version, with Gomez opting for several simplistic outfits including a white t-shirt, colourful dressing gown and other apparel. It's got everything you'd expect from this type of video: shower scene, laying on a sofa, writhing on the floor. 

Gomez shows off her new more mature image to match the different sound and it's one that pays off. Whilst the previous track may have been more catchy, the video is engaging enough to keep viewers interested. The artistic photography style and stripped back setting echo the emotional aura of the song and provide a suitable backdrop for a thoughtful video.
