Would Gaga ever cover a song for an album?

Sure, but only if it’s hers. By that, I mean that she really plays with the song. See, I feel like her jazz covers, while great, follow the original melodies too strongly. If she could make an honest to god reinvention of the song than totally. For instance, Bowie covered Kingdom Come on Scary Monsters and it’s a great track

She relesead an album full of covers, so... she already did it. Am I here for a cover song on an pop album? Not really :duck: 

Lana Del Rey does it well... she covered "Blue Velvet," "The Other Woman," and "Dont Let Me Be Misunderstood" on her albums and all of these tracks came off as being authentically hers

Lorde did it too with "Swingin Party" and she made it into her own. If you werent aware of the original, all these songs sounded like 100% authentic Lana and Lorde songs

...and would you be here for it?

She always slays covers so I don't see why she hasn't ever included a cover on a studio album. I know some artists literally do covers because they can't manage to write a decent amount of songs for an album but I'd love to hear a studio cover one time from Gaga.

Not really ...

A Jazz album is by definition an album full of covers. In jazz, you have 'themes' that are classics (there's like 150 of them) and your job is to improvise on them. Making a real jazz album is using those themes. 

What Amy Winehouse did was putting out a Jazzy album with jazzy sonorities. But it wasn't a REAL jazz album like Gaga did

Off topic, but you're not gonna convince people that singing standards is different than covering any old song. Trust me I've tried lmao 

i do believe Gaga said she was going to cover a song for ARTPOP tho. I think she mentioned it on littlemonsters.com in a post

I would really like to hear a studio version of Gaga singing What's Up? 

Don't get me wrong, I understand she sang it with all of her feelings at the artRAVE, but... I just didn't liked it at all. There was another performance where she actually sounds A LOT better but I could never find the full video, sadly.

PG.

Well, I don't necessarily expect it....but if she wants to cover a song, and it fits on her album, then i'm here for it. It's not like she's going to butcher anyone's song. She would have included it because it meant something special to her. Not only that, but she's at a point where many singers would be honored to have her cover their songs (obviously not everyone. There will always be bitter haters, even when it comes to other singers. She does seem to have a lot of respect in the music industry though, so I wouldn't see this becoming a problem).
