Halo, Single Ladies & Crazy in Love. She has a 1-2-3 punch of signature songs like Gaga (Just Dance, Poker Face, Bad Romance)

The only one that can actually be considered a "hit" by pop stans definition - Single Ladies, her only "radio relevant song".

Define 1-2-3 punch. Gaga has many more memorable songs that span her entire career. Unlike Beyonce. Can you actually remember any lyrics from Lemonade album? or Beyonce? All I member of Beyonce is "All the single ladies", just those 4 words. With Gaga, I literally can recite the lyrics to every single one of her singles, and almost all of her album tracks.

That's because you're a stan of Gaga and not of Beyoncé. You very obviously don't like her and as a result try to downplay the actual achievments of her that are black and white on paper. Your personal opinion and tastes are not reflective of Beyoncé's legacy as an artist.

Just Dance wasn't that big worldwide compared to the other two.

I'd rather choose Telephone, Alejandro or Born This Way.

Single Ladies but also Crazy In Love for those who grew up listening to Destiny's Child and have been following her career since then. Of course younger people would remember her just for Single Ladies right now.

Until 2011 I believe it would be Crazy In Love and Single Ladies. But after the baby reveal and the Super Bowl she became too much of a name itself and are much more referred to her as an icon than her work. And the whole self-titled surprise release and Lemonade's impact cemented that.

Just like Madonna. She has her biggest hits (Like a Prayer, Like a Virgin, Ray of Light etc) but her name is bigger than her work.

Gaga during the "cleaning up her image" era from 2014-2016 was heading to that but the Super Bowl left people with the Bad Romance girl taste in their mouths, even though they recognize JD, PF, BTW, Telephone, TEOG etc (And now good sis Million Reasons :bon:)

Why are people mentioning Irreplaceable or Baby boy? Do you guys even know what a signature song is?? Single Ladies and everyone knows that. The only argument one could make against it is Crazy in Love.

 And I don't care if she closes her show with Halo. Lots of artist chose a ballad to make it happen. Gaga will probably continue to close with MR but we all know it ain't her signature song.

All three are classics, but Sinlge Ldies is the signature. Articles will write "The single ladies star", its her most iconic, its what shes known for. Gaga is a bit more debatable between PF and BR. JD is a classic but is not a signature.

Madonna's signature is still Like A Virgin though. She may not like it, her fans may not like it, it may not even be her biggest hit or receive the best recurrent airplay. But it is the most known and is what people think of first when they think of her.

If you grab a group of random 100 people and tell them the name the first song that comes to mind when you mention these artists, this is what they say:

Beyonce: Single Ladies

Madonna: Like A Virgin

Britney: Baby One More Time

JT: Sexyback

Some artists are bit a more debatable, which doesn't mean they are better or worst, just that one song hasnt overtaken another. Example:

Gaga: PF/BR

Rihanna: We Found Love/ Umbrella

The songs may not always be the biggest, they may not close the show with, but this is what the public will identify with.
