This holds some serious clout, especially coming from him!
Elton John has nothing but praise for Lady GaGa‘s upcoming album, Born This Way, and even claims that its title track will knock Gloria Gaynor‘s ‘I Will Survive’ off its thrown as number one gay anthem!
He explains:
├óΓé¼┼ôShe and I come from exactly the same place. She’s kind of like the bastard daughter of Elton John. I love her, and I love her ability to write. There├óΓé¼Γäós a chance I might do one track with her, but she├óΓé¼Γäós so busy and I├óΓé¼Γäóm so busy, we can never get together! But her record ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ it├óΓé¼Γäós fucking amazing. ├óΓé¼╦£Born This Way,├óΓé¼Γäó which is the title song, will completely get rid of Gloria Gaynor├óΓé¼Γäós ‘I Will Survive.’ This is the new ‘I Will Survive.’ That was the gay anthem. This is the new gay anthem. Actually, it├óΓé¼Γäós not a gay anthem ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ it can apply to anybody.├óΓé¼┬¥
Very true! GaGa sings about issues that apply to EVERYONE!
But this is amazing news!
We can’t wait to hear the album!!!
