"Playing God" is a song by American rock band Paramore, taken from their third studio album, Brand New Eyes (2009).

[2] Lead singer Hayley Williams said on her Twitter: "Miss Anne will be making her final appearance in our new video for “Playing God”... She was the best car.

[4] When asked about the development of music during an interview on each track, Williams said: "All five of us met up at Zac [Farro, drums] and Josh’s house and sat around their living room with two acoustic guitars and [bassist] Jeremy Davis’ bass.

James Montgomery of MTV praised the video, noting: "Paramore are coming home, looking back, wrapping things ...

"[6] Emma Gaedeke Billboard magazine said: "'Playing God' plays off the same momentum that the video for 'Ignorance' did, as Williams is seen poisoning, detaining and interrogating her male bandmates with a magnifying glass in a dark basement ...

While the video is an accurate representation of the ill-harbored feelings that the band once shared, there is no doubt that Paramore has since recovered.

The video is meant to be a sequel to "Ignorance", as Hayley is getting revenge on her bandmates for doing same exact thing to her not too long ago.

The video begins with Williams getting out of her car, holding a bouquet of flowers, and entering into a basement where there are the rest of Paramore seated and fastened with rope, and a single light bulb hanging over their heads.

In another short, Williams is shown sitting down, holding onto the rope in her lap while looking at real photographs of her and her band members.

Once she gets her friends to leave, Williams returns to the basement where she points a magnifying glass in their faces while singing the song.

When Williams returns upstairs, she faces herself in the mirror and frame set-up that's featured on the back of Paramore's album cover.
