Best Lady Gaga songs

72 ELO points separate Bad Romance from Poker Face at the top of the Lady Gaga ranking, after 1206 duels.

Judas claims the top spot with 1343 ELO points across 77 duels, but the sharpest divide in the ranking sits just below. Bad Romance trails by a mere 2 points at 1341 ELO, yet a 72-point chasm opens between it and Poker Face at rank 3. This gap reveals a clear threshold: voters treat Bad Romance and Judas as a distinct upper tier, while the rest of the catalog falls into a secondary league. The bottom of the ranking tells its own story. Hold My Hand sits at rank 10 with 1066 ELO and a 37% win rate, suggesting that even within a celebrated discography, not every track commands the same devotion. Always Remember Us This Way fares only slightly better at rank 9, reinforcing that ballads from the A Star Is Born era struggle to match the grip of Gaga's early pop anthems.

This ranking draws from 1206 duels contributed by 53 players across 10 contenders, updated on 12 October 2026. The data captures head-to-head preferences that expose not just favorites but the precise distance between them.

How this ranking is computed

Every duel won lifts a contender and every loss drops them, by an amount that depends on the opponent's strength: beating the leader is worth more than beating the last. It is an ELO, the same principle as in chess. Duels are not drawn at random — an adaptive entropy sort puts the least predictable match-ups first, which settles the ranking far faster than a full round robin. A worldwide ranking is only published past 30 completed plays. Known limit: a contender who has faced few opponents keeps an approximate score, and the bottom of the table moves more than the podium.
