Gaga answered today angrily to British reporters when she was asked if she had copied her track "Born this way" front he iconic song composed by Madonna which was "Express Yourself".
Gaga's album was released in February 2011. Since then she is not able to get rid herself of all kind of speculation to her new above mentioned song. After this speculation Madonna fans have started criticizing Gaga for copying Madonna evergreen "Express Yourself".
As per the record the answer she replied that we got from the resources was as below:
"I am not stupid enough to put out a record and be that moronic... I'm a songwriter. I've written loads of music. Why would I try to put out a (copied) song and think I'm getting one over on everybody? That's retarded. What a completely ridiculous thing to even question me about. I will look you in your eyes and tell you that I am not dumb enough or moronic enough to think that you are dumb enough or moronic enough not to see that I would have stolen a melody.
"If you put the songs next to each other, side by side, the only similarities are the chord progression. It's the same one that's been in disco music for the last 50 years. Just because I'm the first f**king artist in 25 years to think of putting it on Top 40 radio, it doesn't mean I'm a plagiarist, it means that I'm f**king smart. Sorry...
"Nobody in this room at any point looked around and said, oh my God, it's Express Yourself. Not once...
"I was just f**king shell shocked by it. It's so funny to hear you say, 'It must have been a homage', I'm like, no. When I homage, I f**king homage with a big sign saying I've done it. Why would I not do that now?"
People should try to clear the things first before blaming anyone as one reason could be that Gaga would be highly inspired by Madonna and that could be the reason of similarity in her and later's song.
