A bit info about the track

 

The Rolling Stones have released the second single, "Sweet Sounds Of Heaven", from their upcoming album "Hackney Diamonds", due on October 20. The track features a bravura vocal performance by Lady Gaga, alongside Stevie Wonder on Fender Rhodes, Moog and piano.

 

A gospel-infused Stones epic in the lineage of "You Can't Always Get What You Want" and "Shine A Light", "Sweet Sounds Of Heaven" came about in a spontaneous fashion. Stones frontman Mick Jagger was at his home in London one sunny afternoon, the leaves were rustling as the wind blew through the trees around outside, and he started playing a chord pattern of C, F and B Flat on his piano.

 

The track was recorded at Henson Recording Studios, Los Angeles; Metropolis Studios, London; Sanctuary Studios, Nassau, Bahamas and written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. During sessions in Los Angeles, The Rolling Stones invited Stevie Wonder and Lady Gaga to work on "Heaven".

It's odd. I am sure I am missing something really obvious but when was her last feature released as a single? I can only think of Video Phone with Beyoncé?

Was the Chic collaboration a single?

It's not her last, but never let us forget the iconic Chillin xx

! Ofc

 

She has so few features compared to the other big pop girls. This is such a huge move for her! And with legends too :clap:

Any idea when they'll be dispatched/which chart they'll count for? :unsure:

In the UK, it will ship on October 13th

In the US, it will be shipped on October 20th.

So not counting for week 1 D: that's a shame!

The physical will be released on October 13 it seems. Would've been nice to have them out tomorrow but that's good too, only 2 weeks away.

 

Edit what you two just said.
