Part seven of the Monster Ball Toronto footage and we are still not tired of it. Bad Romance into Born This Way is the kind of one-two punch that only worked because 2011 Gaga was operating at a level the pop charts hadn’t seen since prime Madonna and arguably haven’t seen since. The choreography is unhinged, the staging looks like a Broadway show that got into the wrong supply closet, and the crowd knows every word of both before the chorus even hits. Shot from the floor, audio is what it is, but that’s part of the charm of the era. Live pop was a contact sport. Roll it.
