I’m sorry Lady Gaga sounds/looks better than that. The first part was creepy with her stare multiplied. Lady Gaga does it best she’s the only one who could pull it off.

Taking a swipe at the original because you prefer the cover is unnecessary. But, since you started, I’d take the original over self-conscious oh-so-ironic hipsters any day.

Oh dear, I do hate indie bands doing ironic covers of pop songs. This isn’t one of Gaga’s best tracks anyway, but I do prefer her version – at least her video had some character to it.

Hey everybody look at me! I lack the mental capacity to enjoy something without insulting other things!

Lady Gaga is probably the most musically talented mainstream act of the last decade or so, with possible exception to, say, Jason Mraz. I don’t care two whits about her fashion extravagances, but she’s doing her part to steer music back into the realm of MUSIC, and her creativity is refreshing. Pomplamoose are an amazing duo who are as “well-known” as they are not out of marketing but sheer talent; their covers take the original songs in some interesting places musically and they’re all obviously done out of great love for the originals, unlike the all-too-sarcastic “white guy plays a folksy cover of a rap song on his acoustic guitar” trend.

I know it’s incendiary idiocy like this that stirs up comments and traffic, but maybe you should consider drawing folks in with actual content and not ill-conceived potshots. You’re entitled to dislike Lady Gaga or Pomplamoose, but others are entitled to like BOTH of them; surely you could spend ten seconds without lobbing baseless and tasteless insults? Perish the thought!

thanks so much for posting this video. now i know about pomplamoose! i really like their stuff. i really enjoy her voice and they’re videos are really silly and fun to watch!

i think lady gaga is alright. however she wants to act or dress is up to her, but it’s all about the music. i personally love hearing how other people reinvent other things whether it’s a cover of a song or a remake of a film.

Wait. Did someone above say Lady Gaga played music? Lady Gaga? The Poker Face producing thing? What? Wow. This is a shitty song played by dirty hipsters. How do you make any song worse? Get some hipsters to do an ironic cover. It’s things like this that make me lose my faith in humanity.

Who’d a thunk Lady Gaga and and hipsters would start a flame war on GaS?

Not I.

Lady Gaga sucks and so does this. However lady gaga sucks more because “it” uses autotune.

I’d like to point out that this is not a remix at all. It’s a cover song.

Yea, all of you guys who think lady gaga is a good singer.. You all are retarded. This band sings lady gaga songs 100 times better then she ever could…

This is the most awful thing I’ve ever heard. I once ran over a cat with my car and truly enjoyed it more than this.

If you don’t think Lady GaGa plays music, or if you don’t think she’s talented, you need to check out this video — http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3R3KqrJAI4

She is a classically trained musician, a pop artist, and my generation’s Madonna and Andy Warhol rolled into one. She writes all of her own songs, sings everything live, and NEVER performs a song the same way twice. You don’t get much more musically talented than that.

Well, I normally don’t like weird indie music. But not bad!

A song like this has no meaning coming from people who don’t look like they’ve ever danced or been to a club in their entire lives.

This is probably my least favorite Lady Gaga song, but even the original is better than this emotionless version that you can’t even dance to.

I absolutely love Pomplamoose (their cover of September is fantastic), but for some reason their cover of this song doesn’t really hit home with me. It’s not bad or anything, I just can’t really get into it. I think Telephone is just really meant to be a typical (yet pretty damn awesome) club anthem rather than getting its indie flavor on.

U BE Trolling? Nah man, beyonce may have a better voice overall…but this revision is much more entertaining.
Itt: video quality has no bearings on music quality

As stupid as I agree all the comments were, “Don’t like it? You do better!” is a moronic response.

I thought this cover was decent but I still like the original better. Lady Gaga gets a lot of hate but she does have talent. http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/5568064/lady_gagas_best_songs_the_top_lady.html?singlepage=true&cat=2
