You can hear a song, listen to all the words, perceive all the intonations in the vocals, and still come back to it after hundreds of plays over the span of years and have that “aha” moment where the soul of every hand that touched its creation infects and overwhelms you.

Dream on.

This is easily one of the best Lady Gaga covers that I’ve seen. I know it’s meant as comedy, but I really do enjoy the more theatrical, broadway-esque form that the song takes on.
