Lady Gaga about her new album: "Born This Way"


Lady GaGa has opined that her new album will “change the world”.
The singer, who recently announced the LP’s title as Born This Way, believes her music has the ability to liberate people.
“The album is my absolute greatest work I’ve ever done and I’m so excited about it,” she told RWD Magazine.
“The message, the melodies, the direction, the meaning, what it will mean to my fans and what it will mean in my own life – it’s utter liberation.
“I knew I had an ability to change the world when I started to receive letters from fans: ‘You saved my life…’ ‘I’m gay and my parents threw me out…’
“My fans have related to me as a human being and as a non-human being – as a super-human person that I truly am.”
The ‘Alejandro’ star also said that she is not arrogant, insisting that music is the only thing she feels confident about.
She continued: “Everyone tells me I’m arrogant but my music’s the only thing I’ve got, so you’ll have to let me be confident about one thing. I suppose that’s what you can expect from the album: a lot of hit records that will piss people off.
“Beyoncé said: ‘Where the f**k do you get these ideas from?’ And I was like: ‘I don’t know Bee, it was just the way I was born’.”

Lady GaGa hopes her new album will be a rock crossover record that will “reach the masses”.
The singer, who recently debuted a track on tour called ‘You and I’ from the widely anticipated LP, said the track doesn’t reflect the sound of the whole record, but hopes it will have widespread appeal.
“I wrote the song just to write a beautiful song and I intend to put it on the new album, yes,” GaGa told RWD.
“But it’s not totally indicative of the new album sound; it’s just a really big rock and roll hit. I do have these hopes that it could be a great crossover record, so I’m going to put my producer’s hat on and get it to a place where I feel like it could reach the masses.
“It’s a beautiful, beautiful lyric and melody.”
GaGa also discussed her longevity in the music industry, claiming her Monster Ball tour has become a “religion” for her fans.
“I think that I’m, in the best kind of way, as irrelevant as I am relevant and it’s the timing of when the music came and when the show came. Also, the thing is, the show has become a religion for me and my fans.
“In that way it’s about so much more than the music, the clothes or me. It’s about the togetherness of music and culture.”
GaGa’s new album, Born This Way, is slated for release next year.
