Bad Romance

In the beginning of the song there is a bit of circus music that plays, which comments on the entire song. In the song she is talking about how she wants to be with this guy even though he isn't perfect. She wants everything about him, even the bad. She wants his love, disease, drama, ugly, etc. Unlike a regular love song, (and like the shakespeare sonnet) she isn't talking about the convention reasons that you love somebody. She challenges these conventions by talknig about how she could love every last bit of him. The tempo of the song is very upbeat and happy. There is a dominant base that is reminicant of continuous punching or banging. The tone and mood that it gives off is very happy. When most people listen to this song they can find themselves dancing, jumping up and down and singing along. Whats funny is that the lyrics aren't talking about very happy things but the music gives off the happy upbeat tone so it creates that mood for the entire song. The lyrics are interesting because a lot of her lyrics are made-up words and sounds. "Ra Ra Ah Ah Ah" and "Roma" aren't actual words but she incorperates them into her songs and makes them seem like actual words. The music is kind of techno even though the song's genre would be considered Pop. It definetly has an electronic/techno feel to it because of the upbeat melody. Unlike a lot of pop songs though her voice and vocals are very dominant. You can really hear her voice and the tones that she hits and its not drowned out by a loud backround or base.
