Lady Gaga Biography – Favourites – Music Album – Personal Life In 2005, Lady Gaga was briefly signed by Def Jam Records, however was dropped simply months later. Being dropped by the label propelled the singer to carry out on her personal in golf equipment and venues on New York City’s Lower East Side. Eventually, Gaga collaborated with American singer Tony Bennett. The two released an album named Cheek to Cheek in 2014. Lady Gaga exhibited her raw talents as she recorded and released a series of musical standards and classics. These include timeless tracks such as “Anything Goes” and “Cheek to Cheek”. Find album credit information for Cheek to Cheek - Tony Bennett, Lady Gaga on AllMusic. May 29, 2020.
4 years on since Joanne Gaga is back with her sixth (or fifth if you don’t count Cheek to Cheek) studio album that sees her stepping back into the electropop sound that launched her career over 10 years ago…
It doesn’t feel like it’s been nearly 12 years since The Fame dropped and introduced the world to the now world conquering pop star Lady Gaga, but all this time later Gaga has proved she can still shake the world of music. The build up for this album has been immense as fans like myself waiting on the edge of our seats to see when Gaga would return to music and personally waits like this are always a big risk. If the album doesn’t live up to the hype it can be incredibly disappointing, for example Green Day released an album this year and despite them being my favourite band I was incredibly underwhelmed by the project. And I say that as one of the few people who didn’t hate the record. However last year Slipknot returned from an extended hiatus and delivered We Are Not Your Kind which is easily one of their best records of their entire career. So I was curious to see which direction Gaga would go, would this album justify the waiting period between albums? Or would it fall flat and be a more middling release? Or worst of all would it be an outright bad album? Seeing as I don’t think Gaga has a bad album to her name that was my worst fear.
Well thankfully once again Lady Gaga proved why she’s one of, if not the biggest name in pop and why she’s one of the few pop artists of the late 00’s/early 10’s left standing. Chromatica is a blast of techno, house, electropop, new wave and synth pop that sees her exploring similar sounds to her debut with aspects of Artpop sprinkled in for good measure. It’s always interesting hearing an artist revisiting a similar sound to their earlier work and on this album I think it helps to show just how much Gaga has grown from the crass party animal caricature she demonstrated on her earlier work to the more mature and vulnerable side that she’s been growing into, best demonstraited by her sincere and raw folk-pop record Joanne. This album manages to near flawlessly mix the upbeat synthpop production with intropsective and emotion driven lyrics.
The lead single from this album was, of course, Stupid Love which I gave a pretty postive review of and in many ways I stand by the praise I gave this song. It hits hard with a thumping techno beat and simple but direct lyrics that give a postive and unapologetic celebration of love and romance. It works both as a comeback single and an introduction to the album and within the context of the album it still works well. Having heard the rest of the album I think there are better songs on the album, and I’ll get to them, but as an upbeat party track it’s strong and works well. We also got Rain On Me with Ariana Grande which also follows Stupid Love on the album and personally I think this was even better. It brings in some house influence and has this captivating synth work with a nice skittisk beat that seeps in through some of the quieter moments. It also feels a lot more personal and has a nice uplifting feeling to it that both Gaga and Ariana help deliver through their vocal performances, especially when they trade off each other. There’s a sense of both vulerability and strength to the track I really enjoy and it’s easily a standout moment on the album for me.
As for the rest of the album it’s really interesting seeing how the more sci-fi concpet is worked into the record. Gaga has been pretty clear that the idea of the albums namesake, Chromatica, is that it’s a sort of sci-fi dystopian world that expresses a lot of her own thoughts and feelings. So while not a concpet album in the sense that it’s telling a story the record is kind of a loose concpet album about this sci-fi dystopia world that expresses a lot of emotions. I do think that after a brief instumental title track the first full song on the album, Alice, draws explicit comparisons between the story of Alice In Wonderland and this album. Also the more dramatic vibe of the song mixed with thumping techno production does set the appropriate tone for the album. Also the lyrics help express a desire to find something better in life which is a running theme on the album.
Fun Tonight is a really raw and expressive track that I think really captures the overall tone of the album while actually being a more outlying track. While many of the songs have a more thumping and loud production Fun Tonight opts for a more low key and almost cloudy production. It gives off this more oppressive vibe that I think helps capture the more caged in tone of the lyrics, even when the song gets more upbeat towards the end it feels a bit more muted. Also there’s a real sense of sadness to the track which is sold really well through the vocals, especially when the track builds and builds during the chorus before everything cuts out and Gaga delivers the lyric “I’m not having fun tonight”. It cuts right to the point of the song about feeling almost hopeless, specifically in the context of a relationship. However I feel it also feels like a song where someone has been holding a lot of baggage in for a long time and it becomes too much.
Sour Candy, which was also released as a promotional single and features the South Korean girl group BLACKPINK, is a really fun house driven track that I find to be a lot of fun and the confident and commanding delivery from all vocalists give this song a great vibe. While many of the songs on the album have this sombre undertone to them I really enjoy this song that’s unapologetically fun and flirty. Not to mention the incredibly tight production and the little sing-speak rap segments that give the song a lot of energy. Also speaking of great collaborations Gaga also gets to duet with a very clear inspiration of hers, Elton John, with the song Sine Frome Above. The song appears to be abouts trying to find some sort of inspiration and something to believe in and finding it in music and love. At least that’s how I interpret the lyrics and Gaga and Elton really have great chemistry together and they both bring the appropriate level of gravitas for a song like this.
I also enjoy the self-confidence of the song Free Woman where Gaga revisits the time she was sexually assaulted by a music producer. Her strength and confidence on the song gives the track a lot of power and vocally this is my favourite performance of hers on the album. It has a similar vibe to her track Born This Way where the song is clearly going for a self-empowerment anthem and it pulls it off spectacularly as the song explicitly talks about how she’s never going to stop fighting for the space she made for herslef in the industry.
Honestly I feel like I could break nearly every song down in the way I have been doing because clearly a lot of work went into figuring out what each song’s goal was. There are a few nitpicks I have though, for example on the track Replay the slightly stilted way the word “replay” is sung feels ever so slightly off to me and the production I feel doesnt diffenciate itself from the rest of the techno diven tracks. It feels a bit too simplistic overall and I feel it contributes to the song being of of my least favourites on the album. Also I do think a couple of songs on the album do have slightly underdeveloped choruses as many do rely on just repeating the title of the song or a particular phrase over and over again. It’s not a massive issue for me as a lot of generes Gaga draws on for this album also do that but it is something I began to notice as the album went on.
Despite my issues though I do think Chromatica is a fantastic album and one of the strongest from the year so far. It helps to firmly resetablish Gaga as one of the biggest names in pop and show a lot of creative growth. The album explores it’s themes well and even tracks I’m not as keen on I think the album would be done a disservice by removing them. Mixing upbeat music with emotionally driven lyrics is also just something I really like in general so this album was pretty much tailor made to suit what I like. Mix in some creative uses of techno, 90’s house music, synth-pop and electronic music along with fantastic production, powerful vocals, great guest features and a sci-fi vibe and you’ve got an album that I think is one of Gaga’s best. Between this and Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia pop music this year has been serving us up some absolute bangers.

Cheek To Cheek
Heaven
I’m in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we’re out together dancing cheek to cheek
Heaven
I’m in heaven
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gamblers lucky streak
When we’re out together dancing cheek to cheek
Oh, I love to climb a mountain
And to reach the highest peak (me too)
But it doesn’t thrill me half as much as dancing cheek to cheek
Oh, I love to go out fishing
In a river, or a creek
But I don’t enjoy it half as much as dancing cheek to cheek
Aw 3600 manual. Dance with me
I want my arm about you
That charm about you will carry me through to…
Heaven (heaven)
Yes I’m in heaven (I’m in heaven)
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find that happiness I seek
When we’re out together dancing cheek to cheek
Dance with me
I want my arm about you
That charm about you will carry me through to…
Heaven
I’m in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find that happiness I seek
Oh baby when we’re out together dancing
Out together dancing
Out together dancing cheek to cheek

Don’t Wait Too Long
You are the summer and I am the autumn
Don’t wait too long
Your song’s beginning while mine has been sung
Don’t wait too long
Fall is a lovely time of the year
When the leaves turn to gold and brown
But soon fall is ending and winter is near
And the leaves start tumblin’ down
Why must the moments go by in such haste?
Don’t wait too long
Winter is coming, we’ve no time to waste
Don’t wait too long
And while my heart’s gay and foolish and free and still can sing its song
Share every precious moment with me, don’t wait too long
So while my heart’s gay and foolish and free and still can sing its song
Share every precious moment with me, don’t wait too long

I Can’t Give You Anything But Love
[Lady Gaga:]
I can’t give you anything but love, baby
That’s the only thing I’ve plenty of, baby
Dream a while, scheme a while you’re sure to find
Happiness and I guess all those things you’ve always pined for
Gee, I like to see you looking swell, tony with
Diamond watches, Tiffany’s just don’t sell, baby
Till the lucky day you know darn well
Oh I can’t give you anything but love.
[Tony Bennett:]
I can’t give you anything but love, lady
That’s the only thing I’ve plenty of, lady
Dream awhile, scheme a while, you’re sure to find
Happiness and I guess all those things you’ve always pined for
How you like to see me looking swell? lady
Diamond bracelets, Woolworth doesn’t sell, Gaga
[Duet:]
Till the lucky day you know darn well, baby
Oh I can’t give you anything, I don’t want just anything
Oh I can’t give you anything but love

Nature Boy
There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing you’ll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return
And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing you’ll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return

Goody Goody
So you met someone who
set you back on your heels,
goody goody!
So you met someone and
now you know how it feels,
goody goody!
So you gave him your heart too,
just as I gave mine to you,
and he broke it in little pieces,
and now how do you do?
So you lie awake
just singing the blues all night,
goody goody!
So you think that love’s a
barrel of dynamite,
hurray and hallelujah!
You had it coming to ya,
goody goody for him,
goody goody for me,
and I hope you’re satisfied
you rascal you…
So you met someone who

of dynamite,
Oo-oo, hurray and hallelujah!
You had it coming to ya,

goody goody goody for me!
Your love has been denied,
you’ve been taken for a ride,
and I hope you’re satisfied
you rascal you!

Ev’ry Time We Say Goodbye
We love each other so deeply
that I ask you this, sweetheart,
why should we quarrel ever,
why can’t we be enough clever,
never to part.
Ev’ry time we say goodbye
I die a little,
ev’ry time we say goodbye
I wonder why a little,
why the gods above me
who must be in the know
think so little of me
they allow you to go.
When you’re near
there’s such an air
of spring about it,
I can hear a lark somewhere
begin to sing about it,
there’s no love song finer,
but how strange the change
from major to minor…
ev’ry time we say goodbye.
Ev’ry time we say goodbye.

Firefly
I call her Firefly
Cause, oh, my
She radiates moonglow
Wants none of that noon glow
She starts to glitter
When the sun goes down
Bout eight p.m., it’s mayhem
She switches the brights up
Lights up and gives me a call
Take me to the Fireflies ball
But when I get her there
Set her there
Do I get to pet her there
And grab me some glow
No, she’s a gad about, mad about
Luring every lad about
While leaving me moaning low
Destinator 7 pda greek maps free. Oh, Firefly, why can’t I
Latch onto you no how
Oh, how I love you but gee
While you set the night on
Firefly, shine a little light on me
But when I get her there
Set her there
Do I get to pet her there
And grab me some glow
No, she’s a gad about, mad about
Luring every lad about
While leaving me moaning low
Oh, Firefly, why can’t I
Latch on for you no how
Oh, how I love you but gee
While you set the night on
Firefly, shine a little light on
Shine a little light on
Shine a little light on me

I Won’t Dance
I won’t dance, don’t ask me
I won’t dance, don’t ask me
I won’t dance, Madame, with you
My heart won’t let my feet do things that they should do
You know what?, you’re lovely
And so what? I’m lovely
And, oh, what you do to me
I’m like an ocean wave that’s bumped on the shore
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor
When you dance, you’re charming and you’re gentle
Especially when we do the Continental
But this feeling isn’t purely mental
For, heaven rest us, we’re not asbestos
And that’s why I won’t dance, why should I?
I won’t dance, how could I?
I won’t dance, merci beaucoup
We know that music leads the way to romance,
So if I hold you in my arms I won’t dance
When you dance, you’re charming and you’re gentle
Especially when you do the Continental
But this feeling isn’t purely mental
For, heaven rest us, I am not asbestos
And that’s why I won’t dance, why should I?
I won’t dance, how could I?
I won’t dance, merci beaucoup
We know that music leads the way to romance,
So if I hold you in my arms I won’t dance
I won’t dance, I won’t dance, I won’t dance
I won’t dance, dance, dance
I won’t dance

They All Laughed
They all laughed at Christopher Columbus
When he said the world was round
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound
They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother
When they said that man could fly
They told Marconi
Wireless was a phony
It’s the same old cry
They laughed at me wanting you
Said I was reaching for the moon
But oh, you came through
Now they’ll have to change their tune
They all said we never could be happy
They laughed at us and how!
But ho, ho, ho!
Who’s got the last laugh now?
They all laughed at Rockefeller Center
Now they’re fighting to get in
They all laughed at Whitney and his cotton gin
They all laughed Fulton and his steamboat
Hershey and his chocolate bar
Ford and his Lizzie
Kept the laughers busy
That’s how people are
They laughed at me wanting you
Said it would be, “Hello, Goodbye.”
But oh, you came through
Now they’re eating humble pie
They all said we’d never get together
Darling, let’s take a bow
For ho, ho, ho!
Who’s got the last laugh?
Hee, hee, hee!
Let’s at the past laugh
Ha, ha, ha!
Who’s got the last laugh now?

Lush Life
I used to visit all the very gay places
Those come what may places
Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
To get the feel of life
From jazz and cocktails
The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces
With distingué traces
That used to be there you could see where
They’d been washed away
By too many through the day
Twelve o’clocktails
Then you came along with your siren’s song
To tempt me to madness
I thought for a while that your pointed smile
Was tinged with the sadness
Of a great love for me
Ah, yes, I was wrong
Again I was wrong
Life is lonely again
And only last year
Everything seemed so assured
Now life is awful again
And the thoughtful of heart
Could only be a bore
A week in Paris will ease the bite of it
All I care is to smile in spite of it
I’ll forget you I will
And yet you are still
Burning inside my brain
Romance is mush
Stifling those who strive
I’ll live a lush
Life in some small dive
And there I’ll be
While I rot with the rest
Of those whose lives are lonely too

Sophisticated Lady
They say into
Your early life
Romance came
And in this heart
Of yours
Burned a flame
A flame
That flickered
One day
And died away
Then
With disillusion
Deep in your eyes
You learned
That fools in love
Soon grow wise
The years
Have changed you
Somehow
I see you now
Smoking, drinking
Never thinking
Of tomorrow
Nonchalant
Diamonds shining
Dancing, dining
With some man
In a restaurant
Is that all
You really want?
No
Sophisticated lady
I know
You miss the love
You lost long ago
And when nobody
Is nigh you cry
Is that all
You really want?
No
Sophisticated lady
I know
You miss the heart
You lost long ago
And when nobody
Is nigh you cry

Let’s Face The Music And Dance
There may be trouble ahead
But while there’s moonlight and music and love and romance
Let’s face the music and dance
Before the fiddlers have fled
Before they ask us to pay the bill
And while we still have the chance
Let’s face the music and dance
Soon, we’ll be without the moon
Humming a different tune
And then…
There may be teardrops to shed
So while there’s moonlight and music and love and romance
Let’s face the music and dance
Soon, we’ll be without the moon
Humming a different tune
And then…
And then…
There may be teardrops to shed
So while there’s moonlight and music and love and romance
Let’s face the music and dance
Dance
Let’s face the music and dance

But Beautiful
Love is funny, or it’s sad
Or it’s quiet, or it’s mad
It’s a good thing or it’s bad
But beautiful…
Beautiful to take a chance and if you fall you fall
And I’m thinking I wouldn’t mind at all…
Love is tearful, or it’s gay
It’s a problem or it’s play
It’s a heartache either way
But beautiful…
And I’m thinking if you were mine I’d never let you go
And that would be but beautiful I know
And I’m thinking if you were mine I’d never let you go
And that would be but beautiful
That would be but beautiful
That would be but beautiful I know

Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)
(iTunes Bonus Track)
I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
Remember when we used to play
Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I used to shoot you down
Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang
Now he’s gone I don’t know why
Until this day, sometimes I cry
He didn’t even say goodbye
He didn’t take the time to lie
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down

On a clear day,
Rise and look around you,

Sea and shore,
You can hear from far and near
A world you’ve never heard before.
And on a clear day,
On that clear day,
You can see forever,
And ever more.

Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered
(Target Bonus Track)
After one whole quart of brandy
Like a daisy I’m awake
With no Bromo Seltzer handy
I don’t even shake
Men are not a new sensation
I’ve done pretty well I think
But this half pint imitation
Put me on the blink
But I’m wild again, beguiled again
Simpering, whimpering child again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I
I could not sleep and wouldn’t sleep
Till love came and told me I shouldn’t sleep
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I
Oh I lost my heart, but what of it?
He is cold I agree
They can laugh, but I love him
And so the laugh’s on me
I’ll sing to him, bring spring to him
And long for the day when I cling to him
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I
He’s a fool and don’t I know it
But a fool can have his charms
I’m in love and don’t I show it
Like a babe in arms
Oh!
I’ve sinned a lot, I mean a lot
But now I’m sweet seventeen a lot
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I
Bewitched! Bothered! And bewildered, am I

The Lady’s In Love With You
(HSN Bonus Track)
If there’s a gleam in her eye
Each time she straightens your tie
That means the lady’s in love with you
And if she can’t dress for a date
Without that waiting you hate
That means the lady’s in love with you
And when your friends ask you over to join the table
But she will find that far away booth for two
Well Jack, here’s just how it stands
You’ve got romance on your hands
Because the lady’s in love with you

The Lady Is A Tramp
(HSN Bonus Track)
[Tony Bennett:]
She gets too hungry for dinner at 8
[Lady Gaga:]
(I’m starving)
[Tony Bennett:]
She loves the theater but she never comes late
[Lady Gaga:]
I never bother with people that I hate
That’s why this chick is a tramp
[Tony Bennett:]
She doesn’t like crap games with barons and earls
[Lady Gaga:]
Won’t go to Harlem in ermine and pearls
And I definitely won’t dish our dirt with the rest of those girls
[Tony Bennett:]
That’s why the lady is a tramp
[Lady Gaga:]
I love the free fresh wind in my hair
[Tony Bennett:]
Life without care
[Lady Gaga:]
Oh, I’m so broke,
[Tony Bennett:]
It’s OK
[Lady Gaga:]
I hate California. It’s crowded and damp
[Tony Bennett:]
That’s why the lady is a tramp
[Lady Gaga:]
I’m a tramp!
Sometimes I go to Coney Island
[Tony Bennett:]
Oh, the beach is divine
[Lady Gaga:]
I love the Yankees
[Tony Bennett:]
Jeter is just fine
[Lady Gaga:]
I follow Rogers and Hart
[Tony Bennett:]
She sings every line
[BOTH:]
That’s why the lady is a tramp
[Lady Gaga:]
I love the prize fight
[Tony Bennett:]
That isn’t a fake
[Lady Gaga:]
No fakes
And I love to rowboat with you and your wife in Central Park Lake
[Tony Bennett:]
She goes to the opera and stays wide awake
[Lady Gaga:]
Yes I do
That’s why this lady is a tramp
[Tony Bennett:]
She likes the green (green) grass (grass) under her shoes
[Lady Gaga:]
What can I lose? ’cause I got no dough (Oh no?)
I’m all alone when I lower my lamp

That’s why this lady is a tramp!
[Lady Gaga:]
That’s why the lady is a tramp
