Overall Meaning

The song 'Bad Romance' by Lady Gaga is an upbeat dance-pop track with dark and heavy electronic undertones. The lyrics describe a dangerous and obsessive love. The chorus is dominated by the phrase "I want your bad romance" repeated several times, which expresses the singer's desire for a kind of love that is passionate, wild and uncontrollable, regardless of the consequences. Gaga's unique voice and her catchy hook make the song memorable and evoke a sense of drama.


In the bridge, Gaga shifts her focus to a more personal desire for love, "You know that I want you, and you know that I need you", although it's still clear that the type of love she wants isn't conventional.


The song's music video features a gothic, avant-garde theme with bizarre costumes and a story revolving around Gaga's transformation into a mutant. It has become one of the most viewed music videos on YouTube, with over a billion views.

Sin duda los 4 son lideres en rareza yo añadiría a Miley Cyrus pero nah! Su "rareza" está muy forzada se siente genérico.

Billie Eilish, Juega con lo cotidiano agregando elementos perturbantes que alteran la tranquilidad visual.
Lady GaGa: Hace rarezas muy extravantes con un estilo "elegante" o "sofisticado".
Marilyn Manson: Simplemente su estilo es poco convencional, no digo que eso le quite su "Prestigio de Rareza" no, todo lo contrario, como es al arte al que se dedica puede entregar trabajos que están muy por fuera de lo común.
Till Lindeman: Es más experimental pero su mérito además está en que logra hacer un festival blasfemo y estrambótico en algo agradable a la vista a pesar de ello. Además de que podíamos calificarlo como ese Matrimonio problemático entre lo maldito y lo divino jajaja.
Miley se parece un poco Billie pero la última supo perfeccionar y hacer agradable de ver algo que es en si desagradable, Miley sobreexplota mucho el tema de lo desagradable y hace que sea incómodo de ver no por que lo sea Billie como dije sigue una corriente similar, sino que se vuelve incómodo porque es cansado.

Yo sé que todos ellos buscan atención y polémica porque eso vende, pero hasta para crear polémica hay que saber crearla y personalizarla pues eso es lo que a final de cuentas hace que la gente se fijó en ti por eso se siga sintiendo atraída a tí como producto de entretenimiento, y a mi en lo personal no me inspira eso Miley, como si lo hacen los otros 4 y los que faltan. De Miley prefiero su estilo semi-romántico y en cambio a mi no me gusta el estilo romántico reciente de Gaga pero bueno jaja.
