Maybe I should say that "Paparazzi" and "Poker Face" are "out of the ordinary" rather than extraordinary. 7's and 8's rather than 10s. I think both have pretty interesting, original conceits touching on the gap between seductions/relationships as-felt vs. as-performed, and they still sound pretty good. I know ILX generally does not go for RedOne, but "Paparazzi" is pretty massive/moody. Not sure there are many other 2009 pop singles I'd rate higher. "Halo" maybe? "Party in the USA" for different kinda reasons.

redone wasn't involved in "paparazzi"

right - just wrote that sentence kind of confusingly. Meant to kind of say, on the one hand the RedOne song, on the other hand Paparazzi.

Paparazzi is likely my favorite Gaga song

ten months pass...

So the other night "Bicycle" came up in one of my playlists and it was like ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Like at the time it just sounded like some pleasant background music to me but now I like, can't stop listening to it, and the whole album. Fuck, man. Good call, ILX.

That song had greater longevity than I thought it would. Still A+.
