The Edge Of Glory, is it really?

What do I think is the best song on Lady Gaga's Born This Way CD ? - This one!
What is dullest video Lady Gaga has made so far? - This one!
You can imagine my disappointment not only when for some unknown reason CTV decided to go to a commercial break in the middle of showing this video.
Then imagine it when I finally saw the whole video.
Compared to other epic Lady Gaga videos, this one is just average. Shame because I love this song.

Set in what seems to be a NYC street backdrop, or what I am guessing is some film lot somewhere LA. Gaga dances, climbs fire escapes and sits on apartment stairs in front of Clarence Clemons (sad that was filmed before his unfortunate stroke this past weekend) The sax sole is one of the best parts of this song and we really don't even see him at all.
Gaga's outfits - average.  There are no "acting" breaks in the middle of the video, just the song, as it is on the CD. No crazy plots that you need to figure out. There was nothing interesting about this video.

I think I am going to chalk it up too her just finishing her tour and promotion for Born This Way. I just will expect more for the next video.
But on a bright note, Madonna is going back to the studio. This can only mean that she will tour again soon. I can hope.
