"Telephone"
Song

"Telephone" is a song by American recording artist Lady Gaga from her second studio album The Fame Monster, featuring American R&B singer Beyoncé Knowles. Gaga originally wrote "Telephone" for Britney Spears, however plans did not go through, and Gaga recorded the song herself, with Beyoncé as the featured vocalist. The main inspiration behind the song was Gaga's fear of suffocation. The lyrics portray the singer as preferring the dance floor, rather than answer her lover's phone calls. Gaga explained that the telephone addressed in the lyrics of the song, is in reality a person telling her to continue working harder. Musically, the song consists of an expanded bridge, verse-rap and an epilogue where the line is disconnected. Knowles appears in the middle of the song with the verses being sung in a rapid-fire way, accompanied by double beats.

"Telephone" was appreciated by contemporary critics who frequently noted it as a stand-out track from The Fame Monster, with one critic comparing it to Gaga's debut single "Just Dance". Released as the second official single from the album, the song charted in a number of countries due to digital sales, following the album's release, namely in United States, Australia, Canada, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Sweden, Hungary and the United Kingdom. She performed an acoustic rendition of "Telephone" mixed with "Dance In The Dark" at the 2010 BRIT Awards in memory of Alexander McQueen. It was also added to the setlist of the European leg of The Monster Ball Tour.

Gaga explained that the music video is a continuation of the video for "Paparazzi", and is also shot as a short film. The video features Gaga in a prison, from where she gets bailed out by Beyoncé. They go to a diner where, after a series of events, they kill the guests having breakfast. It ends with Gaga and Beyoncé escaping from the police. Paying homage to Quentin Tarantino and his films Kill Bill (2003–2004) and Pulp Fiction (1994), the video was positively received by critics.

Background

Gaga originally wrote "Telephone", with Rodney Jerkins, for Britney Spears. however, Spears' label rejected it and Gaga recorded the song as a collaboration with Beyoncé Knowles for The Fame Monster.[2] Gaga said, "I wrote it for her a long time ago and she just didn't use it for her album. It's fine because I love the song and I get to perform it now."[3] Additionally, the guest vocalist was originally going to be Spears, but for an unknown reason, Gaga made Knowles the featured vocalist instead.[4][5] The main inspiration behind the song was Gaga's fear of suffocation as she felt that she seldom found time to just letting it go loose and have fun. She further clarified,

"Fear of suffocation—something that I have or fear is never being able to enjoy myself, [...] 'Cause I love my work so much, I find it really hard to go out and have a good time. [...] "I don't go to nightclubs, [...] You don't see pictures of me falling out of a club drunk. I don't go—and that's because I usually go and then, you know, a whiskey and a half into it, I got to get back to work."[6]

Composition

"Telephone" was written by Lady Gaga, Rodney Jerkins, LaShawn Daniels, Lazonate Franklin and Beyoncé.[7] Although constructed as a duet, the song features Knowles, first appearing in the middle verse and singing her lyrics through a brief interlude, and backs the chorus during the rest of the song.[8] The song starts off unassumingly, with Gaga singing in a solemn voice over a harp melody, which changes immediately to a pounding beat.[9] Essentially, Gaga's in a club and her boyfriend keeps ringing, but she could not talk as she was drinking and dancing to her favourite song. The chorus runs as follows: "Stop calling, stop calling, I don't want to talk anymore." "Telephone" consists of an expanded bridge, verse-rap and an epilogue where a voice announces that the telephone line is not reachable at that moment.[8] According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com by Sony/ATV Music Publishing, the song is set in the time signature of common time, with a tempo of 120 beats per minute. Gaga's vocals range from the low-note of F3 to the high-note of C5. It is set in the key of F minor and has a basic sequence of Fm–A♭–B♭–Fm as its chord progression.[10]

The lyrics of "Telephone" relate to the singer preferring the dance floor rather than answer her lover's call. The verses are sung in a rapid-fire way, accompanied by double beats.[11] According to Gaga, the phone addressed in the lyrics of the song is not a physical phone, but a person in her head telling her to keep working harder and harder. Gaga explained, "That's my fear—that the phone's ringing and my head's ringing, [...] Whether it's a telephone or it's just the thoughts in your head, that's another fear."[6]

Critical reception

The song has garnered positive reviews from music critics. Michael Hubbard from MusicOMH said that the song was "probably the best thing here [on The Fame Monster]." He also complimented the "brilliant bridge" and the ending of the song where the caller gets through to her voicemail.[8] Popjustice gave the song a positive review: "It's a little bit like Gwen's 'What You Waiting For?' meets Timbaland's 'The Way I Are' meets about fifty other things....The structure's quite exciting [...] there is something tumultuously brilliant about Beyonce's contribution that makes everything seem fine and as if it was the plan all along."[4] Evan Sawdey from PopMatters said that "The much talked-about Beyoncé collaboration 'Telephone', which—with its double-time beat and rapid-fire verses—proves to be one of the most adrenaline-pumped songs that Gaga has yet crafted, the whole thing feeling like it's about to veer of [sic] the tracks at any moment simply due to the giddy excitement shared between the two divas, easily turning it into the unquestioned highlight of The Fame Monster".[12]

Bill Lamb from About.com listed it among the top tracks on the album and said: "The Beyonce assisted 'Telephone' is a club stomper that will draw in R&B and Hip Hop fans as well on the radio."[13] In a separate review, he compared it to the "Just Dance" era and commented: "An odd track for a lot of reasons. Lyrically, it is a successor to 'Just Dance'. The lyrics involve Gaga talking about not wanting to use her phone in the club. Having a track like this, when it feels like 'Just Dance' was so long ago and a different Gaga, is a little awkward. Especially when it is a planned single...It's fun and disposable but there are better tracks on The Fame Monster to offer as singles".[14]

Mikael Woods from Los Angeles Times felt that "Telephone" is " a carefully considered meditation on how annoying it is when a dude keeps calling you while you're throwing down at the club."[15] Nicki Escuerdo from Phoenix New Times listed "Telephone" as a stand-out track from the album.[16] Sarah Hajhbagheri from The Times was not impressed with the song and said "The appearance of Beyoncé’s vocal alongside ringtones on Telephone adds to the sense of utter chaos."[17] Melanie Bertoldi from Billboard magazine gave the song a positive review, stating "Much like Kesha's 'Blah Blah Blah', 'Telephone' sets out to silence bugaboos, with whom featured artist Beyoncé is all too familiar. [...] By the time "Telephone" surges through a wall of cellular bleeps to return to its simple introduction, Gaga and Beyoncé have left the listener with just one option: surrender to the dancefloor."[18]

Chart performance

In November 2009 due to strong digital sales, the song charted in Ireland, Australia, and the United Kingdom, debuting at numbers twenty-six, twenty-nine, and thirty respectively.[19] The song became the top debut on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 issue dated December 12, 2009, at number thirty, due to digital sales.[20] After a few weeks fluctuating down the charts, "Telephone" reached a peak of nine on the chart.[21] The song peaked at number one on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart on the issue dated February 27, 2010.[22] On March 15, 2010, Billboard announced that the song reached number one on the Pop Songs chart, thus becoming Gaga's sixth consecutive number-one on the chart, making her the only artist in history to do this. It also became Beyoncé's sixth number-one on Pop Songs. With this, Gaga and Beyoncé tied with Mariah Carey for most number-ones since the Nielsen BDS-based Top 40 airplay chart launched in 1992.[23] It debuted at fourteen on the Canadian Hot 100[19] and moved to a peak of five.[21]

In Australia, the song has reached a peak of eighth.[24] "Telephone" was certified gold by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) for shipment of 35,000 copies of the single.[25] In New Zealand, the song debuted at thirty-one, becoming the highest debut of that week.[26] On March 16, 2010, the song reached a peak of sixteen on the chart.[27] It also debuted at thirty-three on the Swedish charts,[19] thirty-five on the Dutch charts[19] and in the top-ten at number three on the Hungarian charts.[28] In the United Kingdom, after weeks of fluctuating on the chart, "Telephone" reached a new peak of twelve on the UK Singles Chart, on March 15, 2010.[29] Midweeks reports show that Telephone has yet again risen in the UK chart to a peak of number two. [30][31] In Ireland the song debuted at number twenty-six, due to high digital sales from the release of The Fame Monster. On the week ending 18th March 2010, the song moved to a peak of two.

Music video

Development

The music video was filmed January 28, 2010 by director Jonas Åkerlund.[32][33] New York magazine reported that the concept of the video involved Beyoncé bailing Gaga out of jail. Published photos from the set portrayed Gaga and Beyoncé shooting for scenes of the video in the car that Uma Thurman's character drove in Quentin Tarantino's 2003–04 film Kill Bill, called the "Pussy Wagon".[34] Other concepts of the video involves scenes at a diner, a cameo from singer Tyrese Gibson, and a prison shower scene. Gaga and Beyoncé wore "destroyed denim pieces" by designers Frank Fernández and Oscar Olima.[35] With E! Online, Gaga explained the deeper meaning behind the video.

"There was this really amazing quality in 'Paparazzi', where it kind of had this pure pop music quality but at the same time it was a commentary on fame culture. In its own way, even at certain points working with Jonas, really achieved this high art quality in the way that it was shot. I wanted to do the same thing with this video—take a decidedly pop song, which on the surface has a quite shallow meaning, and turn it into something deeper. [...] There certainly is a Tarantino-inspired quality in the video, [...] I mostly love the way he uses different forms to create something new. His direct involvement in the video came from him lending me the Pussy Wagon . We were having lunch one day in Los Angeles and I was telling him about my concept for the video and he loved it so much he said, 'You gotta use the Pussy Wagon.'"[36]

On February 5, 2010, Gaga had an interview on KIIS-FM with Ryan Seacrest. She commented on the video saying, "What I like about it is it’s a real true pop event, and when I was younger, I was always excited when there was a big giant event happening in pop music and that’s what I wanted this to be."[37] Semi Precious Weapons confirmed to MTV news that they have a cameo in the music video. They also revealed that in the video they die.[38]

Synopsis

File:Telephone1.JPG
This scene from the video exists as a transition between Beyoncé's poisoning of Tyrese Gibson's character and the "Let's Make a Sandwich" portion.

The music video is over nine minutes long.[39] It opens at a women's prison, where Gaga is led to her cell, by a pair of prison guards. She is stripped of her shoulder-padded dress and left standing nude, being laughed at by the other prison inmates, and one of the guard's even commented "I told you she didn't have a dick", referring to the intersexual rumors regarding Gaga.[39][40] Then, for three minutes, the video shows Gaga's life in the prison - including make-out sessions in the exercise yard, wearing sunglasses made out of half-smoked cigarettes, and occasional catfight in the commissary. Gaga's sister, Natali Germanotta, makes a cameo in this scene.[41] After that, Gaga gets a phone call, when the song actually starts. As the loud beats of the song is played, Gaga and her inmates do a dance sequence, wearing studded underwear, fishnets and stiletto heels.[39]

Gaga is then bailed out, and goes outside to find Beyoncé waiting for her, in the "Pussy Wagon". She is nicknamed Honey Bee, a reference to the character Honey Bunny in Tarantino's 1994 crime film Pulp Fiction.[42] After an exchange of dialogues, they travel through a desert and pull over at a diner.[40] Beyoncé sits opposite to Gibson, but getting tired of his stupidity, poisons him.[40] The video then shifts to an intermediate sequence called 'Let's Make a Sandwich'.[39] Gaga stands in a kitchen, wearing a folded-up telephone on her head, while dancers cavort behind her, weilding salad tongs and assorted cutlery. Ultimately, she prepares a sandwich and eats it, after a dance sequence.[39] In the meantime, she mixes poison into all of the dishes she is preparing for the unsuspecting customers causing everybody, including characters played by Semi Precious Weapons and her trademark harlequin Great Dane, to die. Gaga and Beyoncé do another dance sequence, wearing American flag dresses and shredded denims, while strutting around the dead bodies.[40] They then leave on the "Pussy Wagon" and travel on the highway, as news reports on TV talk about their mass murder. The last shots show Gaga and Beyoncé travelling through a desert and police sirens wailing in the background. The video ends with the line "To Be Continued..."[39]

Release and reception

On February 15, 2010, three film stills from the music video were posted on Gaga's website. The stills depicted Gaga in three separate scenes: a kitchen scene where she wears a plastic chef's hat and a telephone made entirely of hair on her head, a scene in a diner with her dancers, where she is seen wearing a bikini and bandanna made from an American flag, and a black and white photo of Gaga wearing a hat made from multiple triangles and corded telephones.[43] Originally, the video was slated to premiere in February 2010 but was pushed back to March 2010 instead.[44][45][46] On March 9, 2010, more stills of the video were posted online. The video premiered on E! News and Vevo.com on March 11, 2010.[47]

James Montogomery from MTV commented: "With 'Telephone', Gaga has entered the rarest of pop stratospheres, up there with the Madonnas and the Michael Jacksons."[39] Matt Donnelly from Los Angeles Times said that "Telephone" music video is a "visual feast, packed with fantastic fashion, girl fights, poisoned diner food, an army of headpieces and lots of Gaga goodness."[48] Amy Odell from New York magazine said "This is Gaga's video, but Beyoncé is the best part: she actually shows the angry, crazy side that we just knew lurked beneath her too-perfect facade."[40] Monica Herrera from Billboard wrote: "[The video] more than measures up to the hype. [...] 'Telephone' clip is chock full of intrigue, prison fights, makeout scenes, mass poisoning and plenty of skin-baring versions of what you might call 'outfits'.".[49] Tanner Stransky from Entertainment Weekly said: "Is it as good as her epic 'Bad Romance' video? Sadly, I don’t think so. But it’s better than anything else out there."[50] Bill Lamb from About.com said: "It would be nearly impossible for it to live up to the advanced hype, but the Lady Gaga video for 'Telephone' has arrived, and, to these eyes, it is worth watching."[51]

Sandy Rios, president of the Culture Campaign criticised the video on Fox News in an interview with Megyn Kelly, calling it "disgusting... poison for the minds of our kids".[52]

Live performances

Gaga performed "Telephone" at the BRIT Awards on February 16, 2010, at Earls Court Exhibition Centre. The performance was inspired by the recent death of her friend, fashion designer Alexander McQueen. Initially she had planned a different version of the performance, but changed the concept at the last minute, since she wanted to pay tribute to McQueen.[53] Hence she chose acoustic versions of her songs "Telephone" and "Dance in the Dark". Before the show, she posted a message on her Twitter account: "Tonight's performance is inspired by our friend. Mask by Phillip Treacy, Sculpture by Nick Knight, Music by Lady Gaga. We miss you."[54] She started the performance by announcing "This is for Alexander McQueen." Gaga was dressed in a complete white outfit with a huge Marie-Antoinette style wig.[55] The whole performance was low-key compared to her previous ones.[53] She added the song in the setlist of The Monster Ball Tour, for the European leg. It was performed in the second act, titled "Subway".[56] "Telephone", as well as "Brown Eyes" (from The Fame), was also performed on the British comedy chat show Friday Night with Jonathan Ross, on March 3, 2010, for an episode that aired on March 5, 2010. Gaga initially wore a black, shiny trouser with an old-style telephone piece attached on her head. She changed the costume for a studded PVC corset with plumes on her shoulders, knee-high boots and fishnet tights. Gaga emerged from a red phone booth and started singing the song. She was joined by her backup dancers who also wore similar clothing.[57]
