This week has seen several pop songs leaked. First it was Katy Perry’s “Roar,” then Lady Gaga’s “Applause” (although knowing that stunt queen, the leak, a full week before its scheduled release, was probably intended to knock “Roar” off the top spot on iTunes). Now Cher and Lady Gaga’s much-hyped duet, “The Greatest Thing,” has found its way onto the internet — at least briefly.
The track, which Cher has been waiting to release for over a year because she claims Gaga isn’t satisfied with it, appeared online before quickly being taken down. And judging by Cher’s tweets, not a second too soon.
From @Cher: Just heard TGT ! FUCK ! IT’S NOT EVEN THE RIGHT FUCKING VERSION!!! WHY DO PPL THINK THIS KINDA LEAKING SHIT IS OK ! I’m so Fg DISSAPOINTED
The dark lady also took a shot at holdout Gaga, tweeting: Disappointed( Ive Sat on fkng song 4 over a yr )NOW SOME ASSHOLE LEAKS WRONG VERSION ! GaGa’s SINGLE IS GREAT, & THAT’S ALL THAT MATTERS
I hope Cher was being sarcastic because Gaga’s new song is far from great. Personally, “Applause” makes me want to chop off my hands.
