Bad Romance


"Bad Romance" by Lady Gaga is an electropop and dance-pop track released in 2009 as the lead single from The Fame Monster. Written and co-produced by Gaga with producer RedOne, the song gained wide attention after being premiered at Alexander McQueen's Paris Fashion Week show. For electric guitar players, its driving synth riffs and hook-heavy structure translate well to guitar, making it a rewarding track to adapt and explore in terms of tone and phrasing.

  • The song was co-written and co-produced by Lady Gaga and Moroccan-Swedish producer RedOne, known for crafting punchy electronic arrangements.
  • An unauthorized demo leaked before release, prompting Gaga to premiere the official version at Alexander McQueen's 2010 Paris Fashion Week in October 2009.
  • Released on October 19, 2009, 'Bad Romance' served as the lead single from The Fame Monster, a deluxe reissue of Gaga's debut album The Fame.
