ネイティブに( )に何入れるかきいてみたら
やっぱりaだって
theは特殊なコンテクストの場合だけ
A: What are you singing? I've heard the song many times.
B: This is ( ) song by Lady Gaga.
Answer 1
"A" would be correct in that context but actually I would say "That is a Lady Gaga song."
Answer 2
Either one can be used, depending on what you are trying to say.
I'd probably use the word "the" only if I was talking about Lada Gaga's latest hit,
one that was getting a lot of airplay on the radio. That would be a shortened way of saying:
This is the song by Lady Gaga [you've been hearing every day on the radio].
If it was one of her former hits, though, like Poker Face or Bad Romance,
then I'd almost certainly use a instead of the.
Answer 3
actually, if I was singing a song and someone asked,
"What are you singing?", I'd probably say, It's a Lady Gaga song." or "That new Lady Gaga song."
