Weird Music Wednesday



Lady Gaga is the epithet of weird. But... she IS in the top 40 lists across America. And that goes against my criteria for these posts, sorry. I'll come out and say it: I think she is awesome. I do. She's not only good, she's great. In these times when there are a shitload of female artists trying to make it, this lady has the entire pop world going gaga over her catchy tunes. And she has an ass all can be envious of! Seen her on the cover of Rolling Stone? Even if that is done with airbrush magic, I want it. Not to touch and play with, but I want it on me, not like ON me, but you know like mine, sorry not that I want to make that ass mine, but I want it linked between my thighs and my back, shit that still makes me sound like Ellen Degeneres... Aargh! I need to go to the gym. Enough about her awesome ass, let's stick to her tunes.

But this video. Whoa. Whoa. I want the story behind this clip. Here is a gang of college guys, average Joe's, singing and dancing in perfect unison "Bad Romance".  Do they have a choreographer? Were they just sitting there bored one day and said "Hey let's learn to sing and dance that hot new Lady Gaga tune and make a video of us doing it?"

Try to watch this and not smile. I challenge you. I double challenge you.

  1. I wanted to hate Lady Gaga so badly, but I just couldn't. I think she's fabulous.

  2. OMG! I love that video! I first saw it several months ago, and now I watch it periodically to cheer myself up. They're an all male a capella group at the University of Oregon(?). On the Rocks is the name of the group. Search On the Rocks on YouTube and you can watch their other stuff. Although this one is by far the best (and I must say that even though I love Lady Gaga also, this is my favorite version on Bad Romance). Watching those guys strut to a chorus of "Walk, walk, fashion, baby" is just too much. They also have a CD on itunes.

  3. I love the video, but cant bring myself to go ga ga for GaGa. We've seen her stuff before, in the 80s when Madonna did it. Maybe one day I will find the GaGa love..... just not today.

  4. @ Cecelia: I didn't know what to think, but she did grow on me, and honestly she does stand out, you gotta give her that!
    @ Rachel: thanks for the extra info on the group, they are really awesome and like I like to watch it again and again to cheer me up, it's cheaper than meds and I get an instant happy smile on my face!
    @ Holly: she does remind me of Madonna too, I didn't care for her in the 80s but I'm finding love for her now... How've you been?
