According to sources that Lady Gaga on early Friday, released her 2016 album, Joanne, the pop icon and incoming Vegas girl dropped the visuals for the piano version of her title track "Joanne." A far cry from the psychedelic grindhouse bacchanalia of "John Wayne," the music video for "Joanne" is a stripped-down, folksy walk through the woods.
ns that "Joanne" is dedicated to her late aunt who died of lupus at the age of 19, when Gaga's father was only 15, the video opens with a series of close-ups on the singer. Since "Joanne" is a raw, emotional ballad, and the piano version of it even more so, the camera refuses to stray from the catharsis happening on Gaga's face.
She spends some time musing the train tracks, before playing some pool with a group of friends, whirling on a bridge, and taking a walk through the cities at night. The video ends with her running back into the woods, after which a title card gives Joanne's birth and death dates.
