Who Owns Ms. Cyrus?

"And it hits me, like a tidal wave..." Miley Cyrus released her second single off of Cant't Be Tamed,  in Europe today. It's sure to be a club classic, and if it doesn't do well on the charts I'd be surprised. The video is genius, matching well with the story the song is trying to convey. 
I asked my followers what they thought, and a favorite response was  "I'm in love with it! Everyone needs to bow down to her sexiness." 
I'm still not sure if in the end, " it was all a dream, or a rough night, but whatever it is "Who Owns My Heart" certainly keeps your attention. There's girl action, guy action, and plenty of strobe lights. This is clearly art more than love, but alas, the press will continue "provoking" Miley, analyzing every bump and grind until they think they have her "roped." 
 I believe Cyrus is trying to break the mind in the gutter view of sexuality and natural beauty through videos like "Tamed" and "Who Owns My Heart." The focus should not solely be on the clothes or dancing, but the full picture they create along with the music. This video goes a little deeper than some hunk who retrieves a diamond from the bottom of the ocean.  I showed "Who Owns My Heart" to my 87 year old grandma and she LOVED it! What do you think of this video?
