Lady GaGa & Beyonce duet on 'The Fame:Monster'

QUOTE
Telephone
A song about being pestered by someone on the phone when you're trying to have a dance in a nitespot. It's a little bit like Gwen's 'What You Waiting For?' meets Timbaland's 'The Way I Are' meets about fifty other things. "I cannot text you with a drink in my hand," Gaga notes at one point. The structure's quite exciting: quiet harpy intro / "kinda busy, k-kinda busy" bridge as beat kicks in / verse / chorus ("stop calling, stop calling, I don't wanna talk any more") / postchorus bit / 'The Way I Are'-style rap / Beyonce rap ("should have left my phone at home cos this is a disaster") / breakdown verse / "kinda busy" bridge / chorus / another bit / 'The Way I Are' rap bit / extra 'My Humps'-esque (but not really) "my telephone! My telephone!" outro, then "we're sorry, the number you have reached is not in service" operator message. We love Beyonce insisting that some bellend on the other end of the phone won't make her get her coat any faster. Bonus fact: The guest vocalist on this was going to be someone else, but then the guest vocalist wanted to put the song on her own greatest hits album, so Lady Gaga made alternative arrangements.


Soooooooooooo excited to hear this!!

The song just leaked (I didn't found any topic, hope it doesn't exist, I would be sorry).

You can now listen it here !

A bit disappointed, I must say.

Very disappointed...thought it would be better too!! They are both great songwriters.....she could have at least put Beyonce on Bad Romance so I feel the collaboration was worth it!!

I think this is a great track but I really don't see the point on having Beyonce on the song! Her part kinda falls flat. Should have just been left as a GaGa only track!

It's my favourite bit in the song, I love the song as a whole (love Lady Gaga) but it's Beyoncé's bit that makes it for me wub.gif

This video is now 10 years old!

I still think this is one of the most iconic music videos of the decade with 9 minutes 30 seconds of Lady Gaga and Beyonce slaying *.* For me, this song hasn't aged a bit!

This track is iconic. Beyonce and Gaga at their respective peaks. FLAWLESS from start to finish (video and song.) This was a proper event - at the risk of sounding old, they don't do it like this no more.
