NEW PERSPECTIVE
"New Perspective" is a single by Panic! at the Disco, released on July 28, 2009 to promote the film Jennifer's Body. It is the band's first single since the departure of Ryan Ross and Jon Walker, and is the first single to feature an exclamation point in the band's name since 2007's "Build God, Then We'll Talk".
According to Urie, the song was written two and half years ago after he woke up from a dream and had to write a song about the dream. The song was once playable on Tap Tap Revenge 2, using themes from the film as its background.
[edit]Music video
The music video was filmed on July 22, 2009 in Hollywood with director Kai Regan. The video was released on iTunes on August 24, 2009.
The video is set in an American high school, with high school students in different cliques such as cheerleaders, goths, etc. The video starts with Brendon Urie and Spencer Smith walking into the school in plain black suits and black sunglasses. They walk past the students, not paying attention even when fighting breaks out around them. The pair continues walking as the fire alarm sounds and the sprinklers activate. They take off their sunglasses and a few seconds later the scene rewinds, returning to the start off the video, and again showing Brendon and Spencer as they enter the school. The next part of the music video is shown in photographs rather than film. The pictures depict the pair getting shouted at by teachers, and being taken towards the front doors only to be attacked by the same students involved in the fight earlier. Brendon and Spencer get pushed and beaten through the hallways and down a staircase to where they are finally shown alone and in film again, limping away from the school, with bruises and damaged clothing. Throughout the music video are Jennifer's Body references, such as shirts that read, "I eat boys" and "Jennifer's Body", as well as clips from the film.

Panic! At The Disco - New Perspective LyricsNew Perspective Lyrics I feel the salty waves come in I feel them crash against my skin And I smile as I respire because I know they'll never win There's a haze above my TV That changes everything I see And maybe if I continue watching I'll lose the traits that worry me Can we fast-forward to go down on me? Stop there and let me correct it I wanna live a life from a new perspective You come along because I love your face And I'll admire your expensive taste And who cares divine intervention I wanna be praised from a new perspective But leaving now would be a good idea So catch me up on getting out of here Taking everything for granted but we still respect the time We move along with some new passion knowing everything is fine And I would wait and watch the hours fall in a hundred separate lines But I regain repose and wonder how I ended up inside Can we fast-forward to go down on me? Stop there and let me correct it I wanna live a life from a new perspective You come along because I love your face and I'll admire your expensive taste And who cares divine intervention I wanna be praised from a new perspective But leaving now would be a good idea So catch me up on getting out of here More to the point, I need to show How much I can come and go Other plans fell through And put a heavy load on you I know there's no more that need be said When I'm inching through your bed Take a look around instead and watch me go Stop there and let me correct it I wanna live a life from a new perspective You come along because I love your face and I'll admire your expensive taste And who cares divine intervention I wanna be praised from a new perspective But leaving now would be a good idea So catch me up on getting out of here It's not fair, just let me perfect it Don't wanna live a life that was comprehensive 'cause seeing clear would be a bad idea Now catch me up on getting out of here So catch me up I'm getting out of here | |||||||||||||||||||||||
