A few years ago, yeah. But now we've 5 years on and it hasn't really left a mark on anything, other than continuing Gaga's resurgence of flashy videos.
A couple years ago I would've said yes, but now the only time I ever hear anyone mention it is when people on this Website try to claim it's Iconic. If something is truly iconic you shouldn't need to state that it is...
It's funny that now suddenly sales do indicate what's iconic, but in any other artists threads you'd get laughed at for suggesting 'This song sold a lot therefore it's iconic'. Interesting.

This tbh.
No one would be talking about Umbrella, Single Ladies or Beautiful being iconic or not... There is no doubt, you know? Just compare Bad Romance with those iconic songs I just mentioned and you'll understand it.
The fashion
The chanting in lyrics
The possessed-ike choreo
All point to yes. There's not a single soul I know that doesn't know it.
Black ppl, white ppl, beige ppl know exactly what Bad Romance is & who sings it.
Last year I went to a Reik concert and they played the biggest hits from every decade. Thriller got the best response, people got up and started dancing and the only other song that generated such buzz was Bad Romance.
