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.
Stupid Love
Lady Gaga Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gotta quit this cryin'
Nobody's gonna heal me if I don't open the door
Kinda hard to believe, gotta have faith in me
Freak out, I freak out, I freak out, I freak out (look at me)
I get down, I get down, I get down, I get down (look at me)
I freak out, I freak out, I freak out, I freak out
'Cause all I ever wanted was love
Hey-ya, hey-ya (ooh)
Hey-ya, hey-ya (ooh)
Hey-ya, hey-ya
All I ever wanted was love
Hey-ya, hey-ya (ooh)
Hey-ya, hey-ya (ooh)
Oh, yeah, oh yeah
I want your stupid love, love
I want your stupid love, love
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
Now it's time to free me from the shame
I gotta find that peace
Is it too late or could this love protect me from the pain?
I would battle for you, even if I break in two
Freak out, I freak out, I freak out, I freak out (look at me)
I get down, I get down, I get down, I get down (look at me)
I freak out, I freak out, I freak out, I freak out
Look at me now
'Cause all I ever wanted was love
Hey-ya, hey-ya (ooh)
Hey-ya, hey-ya (ooh)
Hey-ya, hey-ya
All I ever wanted was love
Hey-ya, hey-ya (ooh)
Hey-ya, hey-ya (ooh)
Oh, yeah, oh yeah
I want your stupid love, love
I want your stupid love, love
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
I don't need a reason (oh)
Not sorry, I want your stupid love
I don't need a reason (oh)
Not sorry, I want your stupid love
Ah, yeah, ah yeah
I want your stupid love, love (whoa, oh, oh, woo)
We got a stupid love, love
(Love, love, oh, oh-oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
I want your stupid love, love
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I want your stupid love, love
The chorus of "Stupid Love" by Lady Gaga finds the pop star lamenting her continued search for love. The lines "All I ever wanted was love" and "I want your stupid love" speak to a neediness that has not yet been met, while the repetition of "freak out" and "look at me" suggest a lack of confidence in her own allure. Still, she's determined to break free of her own limitations - she wants to stop crying, find peace and self-faith, and be open to love even if it hurts - hence the line "I would battle for you, even if I break in two." In a way, "Stupid Love" is Gaga's anthem to taking a chance on romance and the risk that comes with it. Ultimately, it's a song that emphasizes the desire to connect with others and to be understood.
Interestingly, "Stupid Love" is believed to be inspired by the Korean boy band BTS. Lady Gaga's choreographer, Richy Jackson, previously worked with the group on their "Love Yourself" world tour, and Gaga herself has expressed admiration for K-pop artists. It's fitting, then, that "Stupid Love" embodies the colorful and infectious qualities of K-pop, which puts an emphasis on visual spectacle and catchy melodies. The song also serves as the first single off Lady Gaga's 2020 album "Chromatica," which is her return to the electropop sounds that made her a superstar in the late 2000s. Overall, "Stupid Love" is a joyful celebration of love's transformative power, and one that marks another turning point in Lady Gaga's evolution as an artist.

What a VIBE! I love how they kept the original synths during Gaga's part.
@sirdabzmcgee
“She kept the original synths.” Believe Coucou Chloe is just one individual who is from France but, stays in London. She makes some really good music.
