Since my first interview with Rhapsody a few weeks ago, I've been hearing fairly constantly about, and seeing bazillions of references to (on covers of various magazines, on Web sites, etc.), someone by the curious name of Lady Gaga. To the amazement of almost everyone around me, I had no idea who this new and apparently ubiquitous person/brand/entity was, so today, finally, I decided to look her/it up on the site and give a listen.

Turns out, yeah ... wasn't really my thing. But it did remind me of a clip I saw posted on Jason Kottke's site recently of a cover of Lady Gaga's "Telephone" by the duo Pomplamoose, so I went back to watch it, and loved it. Towers over the original, I think:

Enjoy. We don't (yet) carry the indy group's album at Rhapsody, but you can buy from them directly through iTunes, and view more of their excellent covers on YouTube.

Update: We actually do carry a few things by Pomplamoose on Rhapsody! Rebecca says they remind her of The Bird and the Bee. I'd agree.
