Janelle Monae's video for "Cold War" is unlike a lot of music videos. Its simple, direct, yet heartfelt and poignant. Instead of highly developed storylines, plots, characters, and high production costs, the video features Janelle Monae in front of a camera, her face always visible, as she sings to you, standing naked and laying her soul bare for all to see. Instead of the flashy, quirky performances she's know for you see a softer, more real side of her as she tears up while singing but still maintains powerful soul-gripping eye contact.
