Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars have partnered up to bring what could be a chart-topping successful song with “Die with a Smile.” The collaboration between the two pop giants dropped last Thursday and currently is the second top streamed music video on YouTube. Both Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars are accomplished artists in their own right; however, they seek to take names with their latest power ballad that we didn’t know we needed.
How The Song Was Born
When asked about how the song came about, Lady Gaga told USA Today: “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.”
The singer walked into what turned out to be an all-nighter of a session. She stated that she and Mars stayed up all night to finish writing and recording the song. That late-night session seems to be well worth the effort both artists put into it; “Die with a Smile” has been steadily climbing the charts since its release last Thursday.

During a release party for “Die with a Smile,” Bruno Mars issued his own statement about the collaboration. In it, he gushed with admiration for his fellow pop star colleague, calling it an honor to work with Gaga. “She’s an icon and she makes this song magical,” Mars said. “I’m so excited for everyone to hear it.”
The combined hitmaking powers of the “Born This Way” and the “Uptown Funk” singers cannot be underestimated. Lady Gaga has 5 and Bruno Mars has 8 Number 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100. With them collaborating together on the new song, “Die with a Smile” stands a good chance of climbing the charts as well.
The Dynamic Denim Duo
The entire music video seems to be a callback to the 1960s, especially with both Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga decked out head-to-toe in denim outfits. Mars strums his guitar while wearing a white cowboy hat, while Gaga plays the piano with a cigarette in her mouth and a Dusty Springfield inspired hairdo. With the video taking place in an old timey recording studio, everything in it seemingly harkens back to the old days of Tammy Wynette and George Jones, as the two modern stars serenade each other.
Final Thoughts
Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga have both been busy with their own activities: Mars with his Silk Sonic co-star Anderson .Paak and Gaga with her latest concert film on HBO, respectively. The concert film, Gaga Chromatica Ball, showcases behind-the-scenes footage of Gaga’s 2022 Chromatica Ball tour.
Though it may be surprising to some Little Monsters that Gaga would take a different path from the dance pop she’s long been known for, Mother Monster says different. During a Q&A at the premiere of Gaga Chromatica Ball, the singer said that “Die with a Smile” is nothing like anything she’s ever made before, that she loves to break genre and explore different kinds of music, and that “there’s something really beautiful about knowing that you will be loved no matter what you do.” Gaga and Mars have both entranced fans with their genre-hopping, genre-topping hits, and “Die with a Smile” could be the next great chart-topper for both artists.
