In which the author finds something unexpected...

Okay, I have to admit, I really am not up on the latest music. However, as I do visit the skating rink, I do hear quite a bit of it. It does tend to blend together for me.

Of course, I hear Lady Gaga songs there. I was talking to somebody about who is a bit of a music head and sound guys and he told me to listen to Bad Romance with my headphones and there was some stuff to learn. He gave me a high bit-rate rip of the song.

Well, color me surprised. Somebody produced and engineered the hell out of that song. It's compressed (like most songs these days), but still surprisingly dynamic. There are really cool synth riffs and there is a ton of layering going on. And, I'll be damned, the vocals are really quite well done. I even give a bow to the beat, which is pushed and surprisingly heavy at times.

The video is hella weird, however.
