I'm not going to lie: I hated the Country Road Version of Lady Gaga's #1 hit "Born This Way". It just seemed really cheesy to me, and wholly unnecessary.
But I never listened to the song while driving down North Conduit Blvd, which my purchase of the deluxe edition of Born This Way from iTunes allowed.
Call me crazy but I felt like I was driving in a truck down a dirt road in Texas. Granted, I was in a Hyundai by the Belt Parkway, but humor me. It was a pretty awesome feeling to have, more awesome that it came from Gaga. The pop star has made me feel many things in her three years of pop dominance, but I could've never guessed one of them would be feeling like a card-carrying member of the Lone Star State (Texas readers, ain't that a kick in the head?). One other use for the southern-styled version of the song? A wonderful buffer between me and my mother while shopping at BJ's out in Valley Stream. My summer breaks at home can drive me crazy, especially when I'm stuck in a car with my mom for what seems like an eternity (it's only 15 minutes). I usually sleep, so letting my imagination run wild via Gaga was a nice change of pace.
