A new Gaga era has officially been unleashed upon us as of this morning. In the past 9 hours that it has been released the song has caused quite the uproar in cyber space. Many are accusing the POP star of indulging a bit too much into the material girls catalog. While I am completely on board with “Born This Way” it does bother me a bit that when I hum the chorus in my head I’m singing Madonnas lyrics. Does it matter? No. It’s Lady Gaga and the song is going to be MASSIVE regardless. Besides, sample or no sample it’s still a great song. She’s not the first to do so and certainly not the last. She’s just going to get much more flack for it because after all, she IS Lady Gaga.
Allow me to amusingly address some of the musical influences for “Born This Way”. Enjoy.
Madonna – Express Yourself
Queer Eye Anyone? “All Things (Just Keep Getting Better)” – Widelife with Simone Denny
TLC – Waterfalls (Thank you James )
