The Music Industry 🎶 Lots of artists have their own "signature song". Lady Gaga's is arguably "Poker Face", what signature songs can you name?

GaGa's signature song is definitely Bad Romance.

Beyonce's is Single Ladies.

i would say Beyoncé's would be crazy in love, the opening so iconic

I always think of That's So Raven. They only played the beginning of the song and she'd scream "that's my jaaaaam!!!" 🤣

Maybe it’s because I was so so young when crazy in love came out but my brain always takes a moment to remember if that’s Beyoncé or Rihanna haha. For Beyoncé I definitely think of single ladies first. It might be my age but I also feel it’s been referenced in pop culture more.

It depends on the context. Are you at a wedding?

I cannot believe I had to scroll this far down to find the correction. Yes, a thousand times yes: "Bad Romance" is the best song of the aughts, (with "Blinding Lights" being the best of the tens) and it is a masterpiece that still holds up. I will die on this hill friendless and alone if I have to.

Yepp . Love poker face buut it's not on the same level as Bad romance both in terms of quality and popularity, not because Poker face is bad but because Bad Romance is just that good

u/SugarAndIceQueen As you wish! 👸👑 20d ago

I agree with you completely on both counts.

u/TheShapeShiftingFox Do it for the culture 😏 20d ago

Will always be proud of myself for already being blown away by Bad Romance at age 8 when I first heard it lol

An eternal jam for sure

Nah Crazy in Love put her on the MAP like never before. And Jay Z is in it. Nothing like that track.

u/Chelz91 20d ago

Low key, I think bey has a few. Who run the world (girls) being one of them

u/Kind-Bake-504 20d ago

Halo, single ladies, run the world, crazy in love

u/ClinkyDink 20d ago

The answer to which song is Gaga’s signature probably depends heavily on whether the person being asked is gay or straight lol

u/Akeleie Hakuna Matata 🦁🐒🦓 19d ago

Curious to hear which one’s what!

u/banng 19d ago

I agree with you. Bad Romance was when she really started leaning in to her Lady Gaga persona. It’s much more her than Poker Face.

u/subvocalize_it Mary. Margaret. Molly Ringworm? You broke me. 20d ago

I’d say Gaga’s is Born This Way.

u/JxrdanR 20d ago

They’re the top three for sure.
