If you've had "Born This Way" stuck in your head since Lady Gaga's Super Bowl half-time show, you're probably not alone.

The nation lauded Lady Gaga for her performance—but not just via tweets and memes.

Nielsen Music reported that sales for the "Bad Romance" singer increased over 1,000 percent on Super Bowl Sunday, according to ABC News.

That translates into 150,000 digital albums and songs sold while the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots battled it out in Houston — amounting to more digital units sold for Gaga than the previous week altogether.

Currently, five Gaga songs are in the Top 10 on iTunes, with Joanne ballad "Million Reasons" in the No. 1 spot.

Overall, about 111.3 million viewers watched the tense game on television according to early Nielsen reports.

Those people saw Gaga run through her hits, including "Poker Face," "Telephone" sans Beyoncé and "Bad Romance," plus some A+ political shade with a gorgeous cover of "This Land Is Your Land."
