Gaga's five succeeding studio albums all debuted atop the US Billboard 200. Her second full-length album, Born This Way (2011), explored electronic rock and techno-pop and sold more than one million copies in its first week. The title track became the fastest-selling song on the iTunes Store, with over one million downloads in less than a week. Following her EDM-influenced third album, Artpop (2013), and its lead single "Applause", Gaga released the jazz album Cheek to Cheek (2014) with Tony Bennett, and the soft rock album Joanne (2016). She ventured into acting, winning awards for her leading roles in the miniseries American Horror Story: Hotel (2015–2016) and the musical film A Star Is Born (2018). Her contributions to the latter's soundtrack, which spawned the chart-topping single "Shallow", made her the first woman to win an Academy Award, BAFTA Award, Golden Globe Award and Grammy Award in one year. Gaga returned to dance-pop with her sixth studio album, Chromatica (2020), which yielded the number-one single "Rain on Me". She followed this with her second collaborative album with Bennett, Love for Sale, and a starring role in the biopic House of Gucci, both in 2021.
Having sold an estimated 170 million records, Gaga is one of the world's best-selling music artists and the only female artist to achieve four singles that each sold at least 10 million copies globally. Her accolades include 13 Grammy Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, 18 MTV Video Music Awards, awards from the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Council of Fashion Designers of America, and recognition as Billboard's Artist of the Year (2010) and Woman of the Year (2015). She has also been included in several Forbes' power rankings and ranked fourth on VH1's Greatest Women in Music (2012). Time magazine named her one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2010 and 2019 and placed her on their All-Time 100 Fashion Icons list. Her philanthropy and activism focus on mental health awareness and LGBTQ+ rights; she has her own non-profit organization, the Born This Way Foundation, which supports the wellness of young people. Gaga's business ventures include Haus Labs, a vegan cosmetics brand launched in 2019.
Always Remember Us This Way
Lady Gaga Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You look at me and, babe, I wanna catch on fire
It's buried in my soul like California gold
You found the light in me that I couldn't find
So when I'm all choked up
And I can't find the words
Every time we say goodbye
When the sun goes down
And the band won't play
I'll always remember us this way
Lovers in the night
Poets tryin' to write
We don't know how to rhyme
But, damn, we try
But all I really know
You're where I wanna go
The part of me that's you will never die
So when I'm all choked up
And I can't find the words
Every time we say goodbye
Baby, it hurts
When the sun goes down
And the band won't play
I'll always remember us this way
Oh, yeah
I don't wanna be just a memory, baby, yeah
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo
So when I'm all choked up
And I can't find the words
Every time we say goodbye
Baby, it hurts
When the sun goes down
And the band won't play
I'll always remember us this way, way, yeah
When you look at me
And the whole world fades
I'll always remember us this way
The song "Always Remember Us This Way" is a beautiful ballad about the intense love shared between two people. The opening verse describes the way that the Arizona sky appears to be burning in the eyes of the person the singer is addressing. They have a powerful attraction to each other and she feels like she could catch on fire just by looking at him. The line "It's buried in my soul like California gold" emphasizes the depth of the feelings that have grown between them. She may have been searching for something valuable like gold, but he was the one who brought light to her life, showing her things she didn't know were inside of her.
The chorus talks about how intense the memories will be for her, knowing that every time they must part, it will cause her pain. Even if it's just for a moment; "every time we say goodbye, baby, it hurts." The line "When the sun goes down and the band won't play" seems to mean that the moment when the music stops, and the night is over, she will still always remember him in a way that no one else can understand. They may feel like they are alone in their love, unscripted, and unrhymed like "Lovers in the night, poets trying to write. We don't know how to rhyme, but damn, we try."
Overall, "Always Remember Us This Way" is a song about the eternal memories that come with a powerful love. Someone who knew you better than anyone else and brought light to your life, even in the darkest moments. The intensity of their time together, and of their love, is always there, every time you remember them.

That Arizona sky burnin' in your eyes
The way you look at me is intense and warm like the Arizona sky, and it takes my breath away
You look at me and, babe, I wanna catch on fire

It's buried in my soul like California gold

You brought out a brightness in me that I didn't know existed until I found you
So when I'm all choked up
At times, I can't express myself due to the intensity of what I'm feeling
But I can't find the words
I'm struggling to find the right way to articulate how much you mean to me
Every time we say goodbye
Parting ways with you is difficult because I don't want to leave your side
Baby, it hurts
Saying goodbye is painful and tugs at my heartstrings
When the sun goes down
The end of the day signifies darkness and loneliness without you
And the band won't play
Music, which usually unites people, won't be enough to make me forget you
I'll always remember us this way

Lovers in the night
We feel like young lovers, hoping to steal moments together in the dark
Poets tryin' to write
We may be at a loss for words, but our love pen an evergreen poem of its own
We don't know how to rhyme
We may not always speak in the most poetic words, but our love sings its own song
But, damn, we try
We might not always get it right, but our love never lacks effort
But all I really know
The only thing I'm sure of is how much I love you
You're where I wanna go
Being with you is where I feel most at home
The part of me that's you will never die
Our love is an inseparable part of me that will always live on
I don't wanna be just a memory, baby, yeah
I don't want to fade away like a distant memory because you mean too much to me
When you look at me
Seeing you look at me with love and longing is a moment I'll never forget
And the whole world fades
Nothing else seems to matter when you look at me so intently
I'll always remember us this way
I'll treasure our moments together forever, never forgetting what we shared
