This is a little bit of a stretch but every time I hear a new Gaga song I hear about two hooks that I’ve heard before. There are definitely more sound-alike hooks in “Judas” but since I have the Super NES “Top Gear” theme (1992) around for Muse vs. Top Gear here ya go.
I love the video game submissions that come in. You’ve probably heard Zombie Nation‘s “Kernkraft 400” (2000) in one remixed form or another but did you realize the synth riff was lifted right from a 1984 Commodore 64 game called “Lazy Jones“? In addition to the sound clip below, you really need to see the game clip here on youtube to get the full effect. According to this NME article from 2000 “Mr Zombie, aka Splank, has had to pay an undisclosed amount to David Whittaker, the programmer who wrote the original.”

This is a strange one. Although I can’t seem to pinpoint this directly there are definitely a few similarities with Gaga‘s “Alejandro” and the title song to Cirque Du Soleil’s Grammy nominated “Alegría“.
