Lady Gaga's brand new single "Perfect Illusion" is a dance floor anthem about a troubled relationship, iHeartRadio reports exclusively. Mother Monster gave the radio station the first listen to her upcoming single and explained the inspiration behind the track during her appearance at iHeartRadio HQ in New York City on Wednesday.
"The song is about modern ecstasy. We found our sweet, simple, ragey way of saying it," Gaga said of the anthem she co-produced with Mark Ronson and Tame Impala's Kevin Parker. "I get this sick adrenaline rush every time I hear it."

iHeart also took to their Twitter account to answer fans' questions about the new track and if their words are anything to go by, we're about to hear one of Gaga's best songs ever. "We were humming it all day," the station tweeted. "We only got to hear it once, but it was really, really good. Probably new favourite lead single, but we still love all of those too."
"I don't think there's a comparison that would make sense," a writer for iHeart Radio added when asked if "Perfect Illusion" reminded them of any other Gaga song. "It's in its own lane, but still feels right at home."
