The 38-year-old Grammy-winning artist and the Silk Sonic singer, also 38, shared their surprise collaboration on Friday, August 16 after announcing it on Thursday.
‘LADY GAGA AND BRUNO MARS JUST RELEASED A TIMELESS CLASSIC,’ @allurequinn declared on X, racking up 12,000 likes.
Listeners were not only treated to the new single, but also an accompanying music video.
Directed by Daniel Ramos and Bruno Mars, the four-minute clip features the two pop stars wearing the same threads as the cover.
Taking us back to the 1960s, Lady Gaga models a minidress with a flared skirt, bright red tights, a scarf and pointed-toe heels.
To complete the color-blocked look, a strawberry blonde wig is worn with a mound of Dolly Parton-esque beehive curls.
Mars accompanies her in a blue suit and a red buttoned shirt tucked into his pants.
His dapper appearance is accentuated by a white cowboy hat, a gold chain, and a particularly striking mustache.
The entire video takes place in a single space: a bright stage where the unexpected couple plays their respective instruments, offering a sensual and passionate performance.

The cover and music video featured the duo dressed in coordinating his-and-hers Western-inspired blue and red looks.
Gaga, born Stefani Germanotta, controls a retro-looking keyboard with a cigarette dangling from the corner of her mouth.
The Poker Face singer hinted at the collaboration earlier this week when she shared a video sitting in front of a white piano while wearing a T-shirt with Bruno’s image on the front.
Hitting the piano for just a few seconds, fans now know he was playing the instrumental version of the dreamy-sounding tune.
On Thursday, she posted a black-and-white photo of herself as her latest persona to her Instagram Stories and added the name “LADY MARS.”
