If there has been anyone who has swept the interest and admiration of our minds this year, it’s Lady Gaga. From fire erupting from both barrels of her metal bra to her increasingly bizarre-yet-catchy music, Gaga consistently leaves us craving for more. Exhibiting a blonde ambition that rivals her idol, Madonna, Gaga jumpstarted her career in 2008 with The Fame. This year’s special-edition re-release of her debut album, titled The Fame Monster, features all of the original songs plus eight new tracks.
‘Bad Romance,’ the first hit off the album, is a revolutionary pop song with an unusual compilation of sweet melodies and harsh lyrics: “I want your ugly, I want your disease,” and a self-proclaimed catch phrase: “Gaga – oh la la”.
The CD also includes Beyonce on the song ‘Telephone,’ which opens with a slow sounding harp melody and Gaga’s soft-yet-enticing singing. By the end of the first verse, the song morphs into her usual race-to-the-dance-floor techno beat, combined with Beyonce’s hip hop rhythm. The collaboration proves to be a success and ‘Telephone’ is sure to be a smash-hit.
The Gaga fever is growing more intense each day. Whether you love her or hate her, Lady Gaga’s phone call is one that just cannot be ignored.
