Lady Gaga done in a swing style

This one I felt merited its own thread as these girls are GOOD.

A singing trio from Ausland doing a version of Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" in a swing style. They're actually really good-Kyle Sandilands is an idiot. >.<

[Exaspera]

They did a wonderful job with that song!

[Plaidman]

It don't mean a thing if it got that swing!

I love that song. Wish I remember what movie I saw it in. It was a 80's... maybe 90s movie, set in world war 2 Nazi area, with swing kids and hitler youth.


That and cherry popping daddies "Zoot Suit Riot!"

Though only i and another member's here husband knows them.

Yeesh, the judges are like the ones in America: clueless.

I love swing and it was a great challenge and they did VERY well.

Nurian, Danni and Brian loved it prior to the semis-they were the ones who approved it. Kyle's more like the judges in America.

Australia's Got Talent doesn't have "challenges" per se, it's run exactly the same way as the American one. I love Grant Denyer though-he makes a good host. (he was also on Dancing With The Stars, and did a paso doble to "Pump It". I can't find a video though >.<)

ROFL @ Plaid!
The movie you're thinking of is titled "Swing Kids"
That IS the title of the song you're thinking of. It's by Duke Ellington originally, but someone else performed the version in the film.

Edit: Also, I know of The Cherry Poppin' Daddies. They're playing here in Victoria's ska fest very soon. Personally, I prefer the Mighty Mighty Bosstones for my ska/swing, but the Daddies do have a few very good tracks
