September 7, 20231 yr Author We are not ready :drama: Maybe this was the time when the song was recorded? @1487657210922553345 The first single "Angry" is currently doing quite ok on AM, for instance #10 in the Netherlands, so bodes well for the album.
September 7, 20231 yr Author Lady Gaga will be featured on the song 'Sweet Sounds of Heaven' - which is said to have a Gospel vibe - after the band invited her to record with them while they were both working in the studio separately. “We’ve done shows with her before and we were doing this song that I wrote on the piano, this kind of gospel-y song and she was in the next door studio and she said, ‘Can I come down?' and she came down and she joined in and we sung together and we went in the next day and tidied up a few things up.” https://www.unilad.com/music/news/lady-gaga...653757-20230731 :o
