everything about that song EXCEPT the rah rah rah ooh la la part is amazing 

before i didnt mind it, but now the random gibberish lyrics bother me. its like using random noises to make up for a lack of actual lyrics. and in some of her songs i dont mind it, but for some reason on BR its so irritating to me

It's called a hook. And it's part of what makes that song iconic.

It was my #1 Gaga song for YEARS until Mayhem came along. It's like she took all my favorite things from Bad Romance and turned them into their own song. Which just makes it harder for me to pick what my true #1 is, they're all masterpieces :bradley:

I agree that hooks like this can sometimes cheapen the song, but that's not the case with Bad Romance. To me that part is a brilliant way to extend the theme of the song.

To me it sounds like someone who is crazily obsessed and craving someone. It's taking over all of her thoughts to the point that she's just blurting out "romance" related sounds. Kinda in a way that zombies are often portrayed screaming "BRAAAINNS", but in Gaga's case it's roma-ma-nce :laughga:

It's over the top, dramatic and camp but it's justified in this song.

Happiness will never last, darkness comes to kick your ass... ‎ ᵃˢˢ 🕺

How is she so little I could pick her up with one hand :selena:

I always thought they digitally edited her body in the shower scene for dramatic effect, but I could be wrong.

Regardless, imo that is the MV’s most memorable shot. Obsessed with the messy updo & albino bat headpiece

I agree it is her best song, but for some reason today I cant listen to it without getting a bit board, I think its overplayed or something?

My exact reaction when it comes on the radio is always: "man, again?? She has so many other songs that were hits too ugh.."

Not even a minute later:

I’ve listened to MAYHEM so much it sounds dated (in a good way). :brat:

From 2017-2019 I always skipped it cause I was bored by it :huntyga:

It’s more retro sounding now than it ever was. :firega:

I don’t think a song has ever possessed my mind such as this song. When it came out it was the only thing I listened to for WEEKS. I replayed the video endlessly after coming home from school.

I don’t think this can be replicated. It was such a powerful song and still is. 

Oh, GODGA :giveup:

I disagree.


Bad Romance does not hit like it used to. 
 

Abracadabra is sonically superior than Bad Romance. 
 

We need a Bad Romance vs Abracadabra poll to finally settle this once and for all. :iamfair:
