Aside from her Oscar-nominated “Til It Happens To You”, which was for the soundtrack of the documentary The Hunting Ground, it’s Gaga’s first pop song in nearly three years. The singer debuted the track while co-hosting Radio 1’s morning show alongside Nick Grimshaw. “Perfect Illusion” was co-produced by Gaga, with Mark Ronson, Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker and Bloodpop. At the iHeartRadio Music Summit in August, she explained the inspiration behind the track. She said: “The song is about modern ecstasy... We found our sweet, simple, ragey way of saying it... I get this sick adrenaline rush every time I hear it.” “It wasn't love/ It wasn't love/ It was a perfect illusion,” she sings. “Mistaken love/ It wasn't love/ It was a perfect illusion.” The untitled fifth studio album, a follow-up to 2013’s Artpop, is due out this year.
