Clock tower cover

Recently, the bells in the clock and bell tower of Iowa State University had been programmed to play "Bad Romance". This is very interesting and deserves a mention in this article. (news; video) Fanatix 16:13, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

IT didn't win Best visual effects

muse won best visual effects...not bad romance, eventhough its effects were superb. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.9.1.157 (talk) 22:13, 18 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request from Cla77j, 5 December 2010

{{edit semi-protected}} please add at the end of "Cover versions" section:

In December 2010, an italian cover version of 'Bad Romance', apparently named "dimmi di sì" ("Tell me Yes"), sung by 80-yrs-old Wilma De Angelis, has been broadcasted live by RAI1, one of the most important italian broadcasters, and immediately reprised by other media.

Not done Although the source shows a video of the lady singing the song, like 10000s of youtube cover versions of "Bad Romance", this one also fails WP:NOTABILITY, the source doesnot mention any third party review. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 14:31, 5 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The source (www.repubblica.it) is the web version of one of the most important and popular independent italian dailypapers. Although there are tons of youtube cover version of the song, I suppose there is no one of those cited on the article with lyrics translated in non-english language. By the way, you can google: http://www.google.it/#hl=it&q=bad+romance+wilma+de+angelis and get some more significant reviews about that cover version. Cla77j (talk) 21:58, 5 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
