Lady Gaga and Madonna have more in common than you may think…

Gaga debuted her new single, “Born This Way” today after making the world wait a year for it, and some people are calling it a blatant rip-off of Madonna’s mega hit “Express Yourself.”

The buzz has sent the Internet aflutter, with “Madonna,” “Born This Way” and “Express Yourself” all trending on Twitter, and headlines from The Atlantic (“Is Lady Gaga’s ‘Born This Way’ a Rip-Off of Madonna’s ‘Express Yourself’?”) to the Washington Post ”Lady Gaga’s New Song, ‘Born This Way,’ Premieres Online. We think Madonna Will Like It”) drawing the comparison.

We have both songs below.

Gaga’s “Born This Way”….

And now, Madonna’s “Express Yourself.”

What do you think. Rip-off, or coincidence?

I think they both sound very similiar. As soon as I heard “Born This Way,” Madonna clicked in my head before I even read what the other blogs were saying. I actually was really hoping that Gaga would have went acoustic or ballad with this song. The lyrics alone could have made for a moving track.
