Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance” has officially surpassed 2 billion streams on Spotify. The 2009 ‘The Fame Monster’ classic hit No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and won two Grammy Awards, including Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.
Bruno Mars praises Lady Gaga’s songwriting process:
“When she came to the studio, she immediately pulled a pen and paper out. She wanted to write out all the chords because it’s important that she understands it. I’d never seen that before all my time working.”
Today in 2013, Lady Gaga released “Applause” as the lead single from ARTPOP.
A fan favorite, the song spent 14 weeks in the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100, was certified 4× Platinum in the US, and is nearing 1 billion streams on Spotify.
"Die With a Smile" reached a billion streams on Spotify faster than any song in chart history, then spent 201 days at #1 worldwide. Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars set two separate all-time records with one single song. https://t.co/ytCrOgGAXi
