A New Chapter for Gaga

You can sit in a room together and not talk. You can take long walks and talk about your family. You can obsess over a new recipe and make it.”
“I don’t think it should be transactional, but I was around a lot of that all the time. So it’s a big blessing that I met someone that was not like that. It’s a new world for me.”

“When I returned to a darker pop style of pop, all my early experiences with music came out.”
“There is no actual other good girl, the good girl is in their head, and they’re kind of comparing me the whole time.”
