Three unpublished Lady Gaga songs have surfaced on streaming services under her real name, Stefani Germanotta.
The three songs under that heading are purportedly different mixes or versions of two previously released songs, “Perfect Illusion” and “Fashion,” as well as an unreleased 2007 song called “Retro Physical” that Gagapedia says is a collaboration with producer Noize Trip and has been circulating online for years. That song is similar to her 2008 debut album, “The Fame.”
The other two sound like early versions of the officially released songs. “Fashion” is listed as a demo, but it plays as a slightly sped-up version of the Gaga song on 2009’s “Confessions of a Shopaholic” soundtrack. Some have speculated that the “Perfect Illusion” demo was made with AI and released as a fan prank when the track came out in 2016.
The songs are posted on Spotify, Apple Music, and Tidal for now, but they could suffer the same fate that the R. Kelly album “I Admit” faced when it was removed from streaming services after Sony claimed no involvement with the release.
