If you want even _more_ Gaga in your life, check out this vintage version of her classic song “Bad Romance.” The video comes from [Postmodern Jukebox](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCORIeT1hk6tYBuntEXsguLg), a popular YouTube channel that puts an old-school spin on modern hits. It’s the first installment of the channel’s new “Reboxed” series, which covers songs that have already gotten the Postmodern Jukebox treatment in the past. (They originally covered “Bad Romance” [in April of last year](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCTOpdlZJ8U).) This version of “Bad Romance” will transport you back to the 1920s and have you tapping your toes, wishing you knew how to swing dance. But we bet Gaga would support whatever kind of dance you want to do. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4227800/lady-gaga-bad-romance-swing-postmodern-jukebox/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4227800/lady-gaga-bad-romance-swing-postmodern-jukebox/"},"headline":"Hear Lady Gaga's 'Bad Romance' as a Brassy Swing Song","datePublished":"2016-02-17T18:56:43.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:30:10.488Z","description":"Gaga gets a vintage makeover","url":"https://time.com/4227800/lady-gaga-bad-romance-swing-postmodern-jukebox/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Music"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4227800/lady-gaga-bad-romance-swing-postmodern-jukebox/","name":"Hear Lady Gaga's 'Bad Romance' as a Brassy Swing Song"}}]}] ```
