You can't even kind of prove that, so basically you're just making shit up to score points in the service of an agenda.

Personally I think Gaga's a talented singer (though I'm lukewarm on her as a solo artist), but she doesn't fit the vibe of this track that well - especially not with the vocal mixed way out front. Between that and the better overall mix of the album version, I definitely prefer the OG. I don't know how I'd feel if I'd heard this first, with or without knowing it was Gaga singing it, but I'm not strongly biased against her or anything like that, and I certainly don't think this one is bad - it's just not as good.
