Singer-actress Lady Gaga says whenever she talks about her music, it makes her want to ‘cry’ and that she definitely is an overly raw person. Gaga specifically talked about her latest single, Abracadabra.

For Gaga, music strikes a chord that is deep in her body. “And I think for some people, my music might do that for them too. Music brings us alive in a new way. My favourite thing about music is that a room can be feeling one way. And then you turn on a record and it’s just like magic, the mood changes.”

Asked if she feels vulnerable due to not playing a character in Mayhem, like previous albums, she agreed, “So yeah, I definitely think this album is very vulnerable. I’m not trying to play a character, the way that I did with Chromatica, with Joanne, with ARTPOP, there were all these characters. With Mayhem, they’re all in there, but I’m the composer and it’s for real.”

Although she goes to a dark place at the start, the Die with a Smile hitmaker explained that the ending reflects the “hopefulness” she found with her fiancé Michael Polansky during the process.

She added, “Overall, I would say that I have a special relationship with every single song on the record. Each one has its place on the album. And it really is an arc of a story that starts with something very unsettling.”
