I rather take this than the annoying beat-dropping-dancehall-parts.. I really hope Gaga doesn't use these in PI and basically invents a new style of dance-anthems.

Does Gaga use this in any of her songs tho?

It happens at the beginning of Bad Romance's Oh-Oh-Oh run. It's actually very common use in pop and it's not Millennial exclusive as the video implies.

this doesn't bother me lol. Also if any publication uses the word "millennials" I automatically dislike them. Just stop.

This all the way. It's a way to discredit our generation. It's hateful and disgusting

They literally show an example from like the 80's in the video and say it's been happening from a long time but it's most prominent now :nails:

Yes, I also do love partying in moving houses as seen in that one Bacardi tv ad.

I don't think that statement is right. What they mean about the "millennial whoop" as stated in the video is the "shift from the 5th note in the scale to the 3rd note back to the 5th".

In Bad Romance the beginning OH-OH-OH is a shift from the 3rd note to the 4th, to the 5th.

The "Millennial Whoop" also applies to Major Chords hence the specific sound it has. Bad Romance is in a key of A minor meaning that even if the 5th-3rd-5th is played the 3rd would be a flat note making it not Sound anything like the "Millennial Whoop".

 

Complete Run:

Oh -oh- oh- oh- oh!  Oh-oh- oh- oh- oh- -oh-oh!

3rd-4th-5th-3rd-6th  5th-6th-5th-4th-2nd-3rd-4th
