“Die With A Smile” marks the first collaborative single between singers Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars, which was released on the 16th August 2024 through Interscope Records.
The soft rock ballad marks the first new release from both Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars in almost 3 years. The lyrics see the duo croon over their prospective lovers and how they can’t live without them: “And our time on Earth was through / I’d wanna hold you just for a while /And die with a smile.”
Both artists released a statement revealing how the collaboration came about:
“Bruno and I have a lot of mutual respect for each other and were talking about collaborating. I was finishing up my own album in Malibu and one night after a long day he asked me to come to his studio to hear something he was working on […] We stayed up all night and finished writing and recording the song. Bruno’s talent is beyond explanation. His musicianship and vision is next level…”
– Lady Gaga
“Getting to work with Gaga has been an honor. She’s an icon and she makes this song magical. I’m so excited for everyone to hear it.”
The music video for the song was released alongside the single and was directed by Bruno Mars and Daniel Ramos.
