Lady Gaga has shared the first single from her forthcoming seventh solo album. Disease is a darker sound than Gaga’s previously embraced.
The song just had it’s global premiere and fans are loving the singer’s latest sound.
The song was written by Lady Gaga alongside Andrew Watt, Henry Walter and Michael Polansky. Andrew Watt, who goes by the name Wottman as a songwriter, and Watt as a producer, previously worked with Pearl Jam, Iggy Pop Ozzy Osborne and The Rolling Stones.
Walter is known by his moniker Cirkut, he’s previously created huge hits for Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Sam Smith and Kim Petras. Businessman Michael Polansky is Lady Gaga’s finance.
Clues about the singer’s new tune began appearing last week.
The singer added a playlist to Spotify, and eagle-eyed fans noticed some clues in the eight-track selection of past hits. The first letter of the first four songs spells GAGA, while the remaining tunes have several letters in lower case spelling out the word ‘disease’.
Some websites have also appeared gagadisease.com displayed the message “I could play the doctor”. While icouldplaythedoctor.com said “I can cure your disease”. Then a message appeared at icancureyourdiease.com which read “If you were a sinner.” You could keep typing in the subsequent url of each lyric to uncover the entire stanza.
After the song arrived the websites disappeared with the first one reverting to a blank page.
