That kind of music that Lady Gaga has is an attractor, and as spectacular as the Copacabana show is-with a twist of Brazilian flavor-great stir has been created. One week after the historic show, Leandro Serizo, the ingenious accordionist, gave the forró treatment to ‘Vanish Into You.’ Originally an earth-shattering ballad, the track now moves with the pulse of forró, which is deeply embedded in Brazilian culture. And seriously? It’s dope.

Lady Gaga Charts shared the clip of the forró version and called it a “belezura” (beauty); well, the internet cheered in approval. Praise was in order: from “perfect” to encouragement that any song in forró style is a guaranteed hit. There’s even a demand for the blatant release of “Vanish Into You” as a single-almost as if!
There was, though, an exultant uproar for Serizo’s interpretation of the song, with one rabid fan tagging him, “MDS VC FAMOSO” (OMG YOU’RE FAMOUS), while another simply granted the two words: “É HIT” (It’s a hit). That kind of excitement is contagious and goes to show that Gaga’s music knows no nationality or genre.
Of course, not all were happy-eyed and smiling though-a beating voice asked, Where is the group effort for ‘Abracadabra’?, in the hope of seeing another much-loved Gaga track get the same treatment. But, hey, that could be next.

More than a laugh, the forró remix truly indicates numerous places on the geographic map where Gaga’s music resonates with different cultures while at the same time holding onto an emotional core. Her songs, whether a stadium anthem or a guttural accordion one, get rejuvenated in ways unforeseen. All that just one week after the Copacabana; what next?
