No guys - it should be "You & Me"

To figure out whether or not to use "You & I" or "You & Me", the rule is to say the sentence twice taking out "You &"

for example,

"You & I contracted herpes" vs. "You & Me contracted herpes"
-- "I contracted herpes" vs. "Me contracted herpes"
obviously in this example, "I contracted herpes" is the correct form.

In Lady GaGa's song, it is

"There's something about You & I" vs. "There's something about You & Me"
-- "There's something about I" vs. "There's something about Me."
So clearly, the correct form is, "There's something about Me."

Put the "You &" back in, and you simple get "There's something about You & Me."

That being said, Lady GaGa is wrong and needs to take an English class.

If you don't believe me, google it.
