Love for Sale Preview

UMG has released the official music video for “I Get a Kick out of You,” the lead single from Love for Sale, the second collaborative album from Tony Bennett (his sixty-first and final one overall) and Lady Gaga (her seventh). Recorded between 2018 and 2020, the album is scheduled to drop October 1. It includes about a dozen jazz cover versions of classic Cole Porter songs. “I Get a Kick Out of You” was introduced by Ethel Merman in the 1934 Broadway musical Anything Goes. 

When Bennett and Gaga met in 2011, he asked her to sing with him on his album Duets II, for which they recorded “The Lady Is a Tramp,” from the 1937 Rodgers and Hart show Babes in Arms. Then between 2013 and 2014, the duo recorded the album Cheek to Cheek, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart and won the pair a Grammy. “The day we released Cheek to Cheek in 2014,” Gaga tweeted, “Tony Bennett called me and asked me if I wanted to record another album with him, this time celebrating the songs of Cole Porter.”
