Rolling Stones' Mick Jagger calls Lady Gaga a 'really great singer': Never heard her sing...
Mick Jagger said that he had never heard Gaga sing in quite the same style before.
The Rolling Stones frontman, Mick Jagger, has teamed up with Lady Gaga for their latest single, "Sweet Sounds of Heaven." This track, described by Jagger as having a gospel flavour, is part of the upcoming Rolling Stones album, "Hackney Diamonds." The album also features Stevie Wonder on keys.
In a recent interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music, Jagger praised Lady Gaga's singing skills, noting her unique style on this particular song. He acknowledged her as a "really great singer" and noting that he had never heard her sing in quite the same style before, "at least not exactly."
The recording process for "Sweet Sounds of Heaven" was done live in the studio, creating a dynamic atmosphere that allowed for spontaneity and authenticity. Jagger mentioned Lady Gaga's initial moments in the studio, highlighting her gradual confidence as she felt her way through the song. After the initial recording, they fine-tuned the track in the overdub room, intensifying the performance through face-to-face collaboration and a touch of healthy competition.
