I like this song more than I should.  Yes, Lady Gaga does the hook. Maybe it's the drum machine and that little bit of scratching, but it all works together like disco fries (see below).

I'll probably get sick of this song soon enough, but here it is:

I agree this version is cool. But in my purist opinion this doesn't need a drum machine and scratching to be enjoyed. How about with just raw piano, theatricality, and vocals?

That lady can sing, and she's helping Polaroid promote a new digital version of the instant camera which is not really relevant to this discussion. Comment Attention Deficit.

When I was unable to sleep in my London b&b, there was an hour-long look at Gaga's career. There was a cute writer alongside two other charming Brits, and their jibber jabber all came back to the obvious themes of persona/alter egos, marketing, and mystery augmenting what talent someone already has. If I ever work on this illustration career, I'll be sure to wear a mask to Comic-Con.

I know drum machines and scratching aren't for everyone, and thanks for the link!
