Gaga releasing Hair next week!

As promised, Lady Gaga premiered a brand new song, "The Edge of Glory," on Monday afternoon. The anthemic song features a sax solo by Clarence Clemons of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band. Gaga has said that the track was inspired by the death of her grandfather, and that it's about "your last moment on earth, the moment of truth, the moment before you leave earth."

""The Edge of Glory" isn't meant to be an official single, just a teaser for the new album, Born This Way. Another new single, "Hair," will be released at 1pm PT on Monday, May 16th. Clarence Clemons also plays sax in "Hair".

Here's the rolling stone preview:
"Hair" - "Hair" is another inspirational song in the mold of "Born This Way," but it's a bit weirder, mixing the yearning romantic melodrama of Pat Benetar's "We Belong" with the hard industrial metal edge of Broken-era Nine Inch Nails. The lyrics are essentially about embracing one's hairstyle as the ultimate expression of their identity, climaxing with Gaga triumphantly declaring "I am my hair!" in its huge sing along chorus. An anthem for hair salons everywhere.

I posted this a bajillion hours ago, but I'm still excited. Gaga is finally slaying again. This is truly her time & no one can stop her.
[info]rebeccamars 10th-May-2011 02:07 am (UTC)
How long till the album leaks.
[info]tainteddisco 10th-May-2011 02:12 am (UTC)
Either this week or next. Gaga has that shit under lock and key.
[info]homette 10th-May-2011 02:14 am (UTC)
Either this week or next.

how do you reckon that one out
[info]rebeccamars 10th-May-2011 02:16 am (UTC)
She has every right to I guess :/ Either way I'm going to buy the album the day it comes out anyway.
[info]maidenhell 10th-May-2011 02:16 am (UTC)
It's going to leak Saturday.
[info]getbacknow 10th-May-2011 02:48 am (UTC)
if you wait two weeks it seems like she's going to release every single other song on the album as a "buzz single"
[info]jinnycalderone 10th-May-2011 02:08 am (UTC)
this is one everyone made fun of when it was described. i think its supposed to appeal to a younger crowd.
[info]brownxeyedxdork 10th-May-2011 02:08 am (UTC)
I like the sax in Edge of Glory. :(
[info]tainteddisco 10th-May-2011 02:10 am (UTC)
They'll also be sax in Hair.

[info]marmar627 10th-May-2011 06:21 am (UTC)
I like its presence and Clarence is awesome, but I feel like the solo itself goes on too long.
[info]forrealyo 10th-May-2011 02:09 am (UTC)
Edge of Glory is nothing new or special but it is good
[info]homette 10th-May-2011 02:16 am (UTC)

[info]jinnycalderone 10th-May-2011 02:09 am (UTC)
Whenever I dress cool,
My parents put up a fight
And if I'm a hotshot,
Mom will cut hair at night
In the morning I'm sure of my identity
I scream Mom and Dad,
'why can't I be who I want to be
[info]greeneyedgaze 10th-May-2011 02:17 am (UTC)
please tell me these aren't the lyrics.

[info]jinnycalderone 10th-May-2011 02:09 am (UTC)
I've had enough,
this is my prayer,
that I'll die living just as free as my hair.
Don't let it go
It's my identity
And I'll die living just as free as my hair
[info]xxpreciosa 10th-May-2011 02:12 am (UTC)
Are these real?
[info]jinnycalderone 10th-May-2011 02:15 am (UTC)
yes, i believe she said them on a radio interview.
[info]greeneyedgaze 10th-May-2011 02:18 am (UTC)
Was she tripping balls when she wrote this shit?

[info]jack_rowen 10th-May-2011 02:10 am (UTC)
i like btw and judas to an extent but i have never liked her single choices

fuck i'm still bitter dance in the dark wasn't released and given a video like it should have, i fucking hate alejandro

RELEASE ELECTRIC CHAPEL DAMMIT
[info]cab 10th-May-2011 02:12 am (UTC)
i love you for this comment bcuz i wan electric chapel too
[info]jinnycalderone 10th-May-2011 02:14 am (UTC)
i loved alejandro, but i agree dance in the dark should have been a single!!
[info]posterofablonde 10th-May-2011 04:22 am (UTC)
Dance in the Dark is my favorite song by her. So bitter. XD
[info]iammykhaki 10th-May-2011 02:10 am (UTC)
Rushed because of the bad charting of BTW and Judas, unforch.
[info]cab 10th-May-2011 02:13 am (UTC)
except judas and btw aren't charting bad?
[info]iammykhaki 10th-May-2011 02:14 am (UTC)
Bad for Gaga, comparatively.
[info]tainteddisco 10th-May-2011 02:15 am (UTC)
It's only a promo single, by the way. Born This Way broke records worldwide. Alsom Judas is already back in the top ten on Itunes (it keeps shifting, but it's either at 9,10, or 11). The Judas video gave it alot of promo for some reason.
[info]surferxchris 10th-May-2011 02:18 am (UTC)
The iTunes countdown was always going to happen.
[info]gaga 10th-May-2011 02:19 am (UTC)
except that these are promo singles, and this has been planned for months (as stated in interviews given last year) so no.

bye.
[info]jinkm 10th-May-2011 02:22 am (UTC)
Born This Way is still in the top 15 on iTunes... lol. It's a huge hit.
[info]hellobitchezzz 10th-May-2011 02:28 am (UTC)
lol if you wanna say that for Judas, go ahead but BTW broke records and was #1 for 6 weeks. It did pretty fucking well, considering she normally doesn't even go #1 on the Hot 100 (just usually on Pop)

The Edge of Glory and Hair have been set as promo singles weeks ago before Judas was released though.
[info]yougotthestyle 10th-May-2011 02:37 am (UTC)
the fans will say no, but yes judas is a flop, especially if you are the most popular pop artist in the world, and you are doing promo left and right
[info]ouronlylight 10th-May-2011 02:44 am (UTC)
... I'll concede that "Judas" hasn't done very well thus far for a Gaga song, but "Born This Way" was #1 in the US for six weeks. How is that bad charting?
