On the one hand, I feel like I've been doing this forever, and on the other hand, I know I'm just getting started," Gaga said. She declared that innovation isn't about breaking rules, it's about writing your own and convincing the world they were there all along.

Gaga rounded out her speech by thanking her Little Monsters. "Thank you for always seeing me so clearly, from 'The Fame' to 'MAYHEM.' Because you saw me, I learned to see myself. And to the LGBTQ+ community, you taught me bravery before the world was ready to listen. You have changed the world for the better and your courage fuels mine every single day," she said. Her final words were, "The world doesn't need another copy. It desperately needs your original."

  14. Nothing was off the table in Lady Gaga's interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music, where she talked about what "MAYHEM" means to her and described some of her soon-to-be-released new songs. Watch the video interview below, and read some of the highlights beneath: On "MAYHEM": Gaga described "MAYHEM" as her favorite record in a long time. "I feel like it has some teeth," she said. She talked about how she was able to be a student on music with "MAYHEM," which allowed her to figure out her own personal mayhem. The album was inspired out of loving music and sounds that she studied for at least a decade, allowing her to embrace the mayhem of being a nonlinear, cross-genre artist who combines a lot of things at once. "'ARTPOP' was a vibe. 'Joanne' was a sound, 'Chromatica' had a sound, all different. 'The Fame Monster' was more chaotic, 'The Fame' was theatrical pop, 'Born This Way' to me had more of a metal-electro-New York vibe to it, so I actually made the effort making 'MAYHEM' to not do that and not try to give my music an outfit, but instead to allow myself to be influenced by everything," she explained. "It's completely me, and it's my gift to my fans," she said. Touching on the success of "Abracadabra," Gaga said she thinks the song is very much her sound, something that she honed in after many years. She said part of what made its music video so special was the community it fostered: "I spent real time learning that choreography, working with Parris [Goebel] and working with those dancers, and I got to. be in their community while we made it, and I felt like I belonged. That feeling made me so happy." She went into detail on some of the new songs on the album, as well. She revealed that "Perfect Celebrity" was the working title of the album before it was "MAYHEM." "Perfect Celebrity," the song, is a 90s-inspired "electro-grunge" track about how she dealt with the anger she felt toward herself as it relates to the desire for fame. While the song is "super angry," she also described it as humorous, specifically the lyrics: "I've become a notorious being . Find my clone, she's asleep on the ceiling." "It's almost comical, this idea that any time I'm in the room wit anyone, there's me, Stefani, and Lady Gaga asleep on the ceiling, and I have to figure out which body to be in," she said. "Shadow of a Man," the song teased at the end of "GAGA Chromatica Ball," is a defiant, fun and powerful song about being a woman in music. "That song is so much ha response to my career and what it always felt like to be the only girl in the room a lot of the time, and to always be standing in the shadow of a man, because there were so many around me that I learned how to dance in that shadow," she described. "The Beast," the 12th track on the album, takes the perspective of someone singing to their werewolf lover, but Gaga said it can be applied to her relationship with her fiancΓ© Michael, as well as her relationship to who she is on stage. "It's somebody that is saying to the beast, 'I know you're a monster but I can handle you, and I love you,'" she said. "Blade of Grass" calls back to her relationship with Michael. She described how she told him she'd marry him if he proposed with a blade of grass, and she detailed how they built a friendship over how to share one another's mayhem. "My home used to only be the stage. It was so lonely, and also, it is so much more fun to take somebody out there with you, someone that loves you, that knows what you're capable of in all the various aspects of life," she said. In terms of other songs, Gaga revealed "Garden of Eden" is a 2000s throwback and webstore-exclusive track "Can't Stop The High" is "a pure electro-grunge record that goes even harder than 'Perfect Celebrity' does." Lowe said "Zombieboy" is "crazy fun." At the end of the interview, Gaga said she feels like she's firing on all cylinders, and she revealed she has a desire to tour "MAYHEM" after her performance at Coachella next month.
