Lady Gaga creates bold' sound

23rd May 2011

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Lady Gaga's latest offering is bold and cool, says music producer Fernando Garibay.

The track Bloody Mary is a dark, electro-pop offering which mixes religion and art. The promo shows Gaga playing the title character who has roots in both urban legend and history.

Fernando has explained how Gaga and her team recorded Bloody Mary while in his Los Angeles recording studio, where she put the finishing touches on much of her latest record Born This Way.

"Another super cool record. This is another one that started on a White Shadow track. I remember [Gaga] played this to me in Australia and we sat down and opened up the track and she started singing [the melody and lyrics] to it," he explained.

According to Fernando the synth-led tune infused with lyrics in French was developed from a track that was put together by Born This Way co-producer DJ White Shadow.

"We came back and added a few more parts to it and facilitated with the production of the record. Again, it stayed pretty much intact as the original demo. It's a beautiful song. It's very personal to her. It's pretty bold," he told MTV News.

Lady Gaga was raised in the Roman Catholic faith and even attended a convent school as a teenager but has upset many religious people with her latest single Judas, so it is no surprise that the single Bloody Mary also includes elements of religion.
