Gaga collaborated with Nadir "RedOne" Khayat in writing "Bad Romance", and Khayat took over production. The song was recorded at Record Plant Studios in Los Angeles and FC Walvisch Recording Media Studios in Amsterdam. "Bad Romance" was released as the lead single from The Fame Monster (2009), Gaga following up her debut album, The Fame (2008). Prior to its official release, a demo version of the song was published illegally on the internet, prompting Gaga to comment via Twitter, "The next single leak makes my ears bleed, wait until you hear the real version." The footage was performed on Saturday Night Live on October 3rd, 2009 along with "Poker Face" and "LoveGame". The latest version of "Bad Romance" aired at the end of fashion designer Alexander McQueen 2010 Paris Fashion Week, and the song's release was followed on October 19th.
According to Gaga, the song was one of his first attempts among the songs he wrote in 2009 during the tour. The songs composed during that time were about various abstract "monsters" - a metaphor for his paranoia - which he encountered during the tour. One of these concepts became the inspiration behind "Bad Romance". Gaga explains that she generally feels lonely when she's involved in a relationship and that she's attracted to the man with whom romance never works. "Bad Romance" explores its preference for a lonely relationship and its poor choice in men. Gaga wrote the lyrics in Norway on her tour bus. He outlines the writing process in an interview with Grazia :
I was in Russia, then Germany, and spent a lot of time in Eastern Europe. There is this amazing German house-techno music, so I want to make an experimental pop record. I kind of wanted to leave the 80s a little bit, so the choir was a 90s melody, which was an inspiration. There must be some whiskey involved in the writing of the note. It's about falling in love with your best friend.

Composition
"Bad Romance" is an electropop and dance-pop song with house, new wave and techno influences. According to the music sheet published on Musicnotes.com by Sony/ATV Music Publishing, the song is set in the same time as the 119-beat metronomer per minute. It is arranged in the A minor key, with the Gaga vowel range extending from low tone E 3 to high notes C 5 . The song follows the development of the Am-C-F-C-G chords in the verses and F-G-Am-C-F-G-E-Am in the choir. It opens with Gaga singing part of the choir, then switches to "Rah-rah-ah-ah-ah, roman-roma-ma, Gaga-ooh-la-la" hook, which Gaga says is the abbreviation of the word "romance". This was followed by the sound of drum beats and keyboards. After the first verse, the following pre-chorus, with Gaga voicing the phrase, "You know that I want you, And you know that I need you, I want you bad, your bad romance". Chorus full-throat then follows, where he sings, "I want your love, And I want your revenge, You and I can write bad romance... Caught in a bad romance".
Gil Kaufman from MTV News found an equation between the tempo of "Bad Romance" and the previous Gaga single "Poker Face". Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine noticed the influence of the 1980s that resonated throughout the song: "If melodies can be stamped in time, these will have '80s' stamped on their butt." Daniel Brockman of The Phoenix points to not only the declaration of liberation "from significant others", but Depeche Mode and Madonna-esque qualities that penetrate "Bad Romance". To Pitchfork Media journalist Scott Plagenhoef, Gaga was able to change her personality to reflect the various female entertainers of the same tone, including Britney Spears, Madonna and Amy Winehouse. Simon Price of The Independent hears the characteristics of Boney M in the chorus, and declares that the first line of the song, "I want you ugly, I want your illness", sets the grim tone > The Fame Monster .
The lyrics discuss the aspects of a bad relationship, but also the fashion reference in the line, "Walking, live a fashion baby, Do that bitch crazy." In an interview, Gaga states that in the verse, "I want your psycho, your vertigo shtick, Want You in My Back Wind, Baby, you're sick", he lists the movie Alfred Hitchcock. He said, "What I really want to say is I want the deepest, darkest, sickest part of you that you are afraid to share with anyone because I love you so much."
Critical reception

"Monica Herrera from Billboard, saying that it was not as attractive as Gaga's previous attempts, praising the song" sex appeal of evil ", and Jon Blistein of L Magazine writing about organizing songs.

Music video
Development
In an interview with Rolling Stone , Gaga confirmed Francis Lawrence as director of the music video and said that he was impressed with the latest version. He explained, "I know Lawrence's ability as a director is much higher than what I can do." Her creative team, Haus of Gaga, manages art direction, and her latest video aired on November 10, 2009. Gaga described her experience working with Lawrence:
I want someone with a great understanding of how to make a pop video, because my biggest challenge working with a director is that I am a director and I write care and I get fashion and I decide on what and it is very difficult to find a director who will release all sorts of feedback from the artist... But Francis and I work together... It's collaborative. He's really a pop video director and filmmaker... I know he can execute videos in a way that I can give him all my weird, crazy ideas... But that would be relevant to the public.
The concept of a music video is a collaboration between Gaga and Lawrence. The video was originally planned to be taken in New York City, with a more elaborate set, including outdoor sets. This idea was later removed, due to low video budget and no product placement. Because of Gaga's schedule, it was shot in Los Angeles for two days. Lawrence describes Gaga's work ethic and creativity during the video shoot: "She loves the art form of music video and she is a real creative partner and has great ideas and tastes that are so cool and unique." He praised teamwork, punctuality and spontaneity, hoping to work with him in new material in the future.
Gaga created a pair of razor-blade glasses - which she believed to portray a violent female spirit - to be used in the video, explains, "It is meant to be, 'This is my shield, this is my weapon, this is my inner sense of fame, it is my monster. "Gaga also said that the video shows" how the entertainment industry can, by metaphor, simulate human trafficking - products sold, women considered as commodities. " The white latex coat in the video was inspired by a wolf costume from the movie Where Wild Things Are . He wore high-heeled designer shoes Alexander McQueen 12 inches (300 mm) and "Alien" shoes.
Synopsis
The main idea behind the video was that Gaga was kidnapped by a group of supermodels who poisoned him and then sold him to the Russian mafia for a million rubles. This happens in white fluorescent baths. The video begins with Gaga sitting on a white throne in a brightly lit white room. The scene shows him wearing razor blinds and surrounded by people and a Harlequin Great Dane. He has his finger on the mute button of the iPod speakers, and when he releases it, "Bad Romance" starts playing and the dim baths are shown. A glow of bright light crossed the wall, activating the fluorescent lamp, which shone through the sign that read "Bath Haus of GaGa". When the first hook of the song began, a group of female dancers wore long white sleeves with knee-high boots and matching crowns crawling out of white-like pods. Pod pod has "Mons er" written on it, and Gaga appears wearing clothes similar to those worn by others, who started dancing behind her. Pastiche from the next scene alternates between Gaga singing to herself in front of the mirror and lying in the tub.
When the choir began, two women pulled Gaga out of the tub, tore her top clothes and forced her to drink a glass of vodka. When the second verse begins, Gaga, wearing a diamond-coated outfit with a crown, tempts dancing to a group of men who offer her. He straddled one of the men, played by Slovenian model Jurij Brada ?, and did a lap dance for him. After that, the man raises his offer and becomes the highest bidder for him. When the choir was played for the third time, Gaga was shown wearing a polar bear bear jacket. He walked over to the man, who sat on the bed and unbuttoned his shirt, drinking a glass of vodka. Gaga has a look of indifference on her face and removes her jacket and sunglasses. Suddenly, the bed spontaneously burns with the man still sitting on it, and Gaga sings in a scary way in front of the fire. The video ends with him lying beside the smoldering skeleton, above the crumbling bed, covered in ash. With soot smeared all over his body, he calmly smokes a cigarette while his pyrotechnic bra is active.
Reception
This video received general praise from critics and fans. It became the most watched video on YouTube. The Stack Team of Entertainment Weekly calls the video "amazing" and adds, "I do not think Gaga has ever looked more beautiful than in a close-up where she's more stripped down." Jennifer Cady from E! also impressed with the video and commented, "This music video really makes us appreciate all that Gaga really brings to pop music.He is interesting to watch, plain and simple.... We need someone like Gaga to actually bring it To realize the thinking and care with its products so it feels alive ". Issie Lapowsky of the New York Daily News thought Gaga put "theatrical hard" on the video but praised him for wearing minimal makeup, calling it "refreshing as usual". Todd Martens of Los Angeles Times said the video brought back his faith in the performing arts, and that "Gaga brought enough [drama] himself, thank you very much." He also thought the set for the video "worthy of a long movie". Daniel Kreps of Rolling Stone felt that the scenes from the music video were reminiscent of Stanley Kubrick's work. He added that in "Bad Romance" Gaga describes her craziest ideas.
Jocelyn Vena from MTV believes that the video is symbolic and describes how "Gaga is long over, here's the new Gaga: people who seem to like pushing boundaries and exploring all sorts of sexual inclinations". He further believes that the video is a testament to Gaga's brilliance "as an artist who uses the video art form as a jumping point for the next round of their career". In 2011, Claire Suddath from Time said that although Gaga's video will be more complicated, "Bad Romance" is the best Gaga. In Lady Gaga: Behind the Fame, Emily Herbert draws a comparison between the underlying theme of the video and The Fame Monster theme - a relationship with fame. He writes, "Is this the price Gaga pays for the fame he wants? Does he feel as though he should prostitute himself in a certain way? All themes are based on sex, decadence, and corruption, alcohol and even cigarettes, the 21 greatest that does not exist, is present, and by the implications... of drugs. " The Wall Street Journal notes Gaga as one of the few contemporary pop stars who really understand spectacle, fashion, surprise, choreography - all the things that Madonna and Michael Jackson led in the 1980s.
The video and choreography also drew a lot of comparisons with the Michael Jackson Thriller music video, as both featured robotic movements, such as the zombie sleeves and morbid themes. The Stack Team of Entertainment Weekly compares some of the dance choreography of the video with choreography in "Thriller". Issie Lapowsky of New York Daily News compares pods in the video with coffins and calls the dance "zombie-like"; Gaga "[took] a page from Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' video," he said. The Los Angeles Times said the video had an "anxious," dance-like Thriller "dance movement, while The Wall Street Journal compared the art of" Bad Romance "surprises to the art of Michael Jackson's surprise during the 1980s, Evan Sawdey from PopMatters also compared the video with "Thriller", but was not sure if Gaga intentionally paid homage to it, or this "just another reason for Gaga wearing the weirdest clothes ever designed by humans".
