Ithink she said it on Twitter or in an interview about the album. She said there was a "techo/mariachi/dance hybrid" version that she put on the album, but she also recorded a full-out mariachi version of the song that she may put out at some point. I don't know if she ever specifically promised that it would come out, but I think there were rumors about her putting it on the special edition album as a bonus track or something. It's been a while, I don't remember too clearly.

There were rumors that the explicit version would come out a month after the album release. What exactly happened? It was Gaga's biggest hype for an album yet so a few curse words wouldn't of hurt the album's sales.

GH's is for the effect for sure, but i remember reading somewhere that because of the message of self acceptance and the majority of pop fans around the time where early to mid teens the label censored the songs so the album was still marketable to younger people I believe. Plus it could be bought by parents and more people who don't like foul language.

Producers were really smart when they had to censor some big words tho, it actually added a lot to the songs, especially for GH and BK. A lot of censored versions just reverse the word, change to some other unfitting word or add an awkward silence.

Yeah I remember hearing someone say some songs were censored while other songs weren't it's weird. I remember bad romance being censored for me, I don't even remember seeing a censored sticker on it either.

BK, is to show how the adults are oppressing the teenagers and censoring them, "don't curse!" for example, so it's part of the song, this is why the 2 curses, s-hit (yeah ggd censoring us too..) and bitch, are at the beginning.. the bad kids are still scared to fully rebel so they still censoring themselves while declaring their "war" and describing themselves as bitches..

"Joanne" is a song recorded by American singer Lady Gaga from her fifth studio album of the same name. It was released as the album's third official single on December 22, 2017 in Italy, and a piano version, titled "Joanne (Where Do You Think You're Goin'?)", followed in the rest of the world on January 26, 2018.[1] The track was written and produced by Gaga and Mark Ronson, with additional production from BloodPop. Inspired by the singer's late aunt, Joanne Germanotta, the song became a focal point for the musical direction of the album. Gaga intended the song to have a healing effect for those dealing with loss and pain.

The piano version of the song was accompanied by the release of a music video, which continued the loose storyline set in the previous videos for the album. The clip shows the singer belting the song around various natural settings and was critically praised. This version of the song won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Solo Performance at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards.

Lady Gaga's deceased aunt, Joanne Germanotta, had a profound effect on the singer's life and career. Gaga included one of her aunt's unpublished poems on her first album's booklet, and tattooed the date of her death on her left arm. She had initially written a song called "Paradise", inspired by her aunt, while making her fourth studio album, Cheek to Cheek, in 2014 with Tony Bennett. However, the song was not included on the album. While developing her fifth studio album in 2016, Joanne, Gaga wrote its title track with producer Mark Ronson at Shangri-La Studios, where the rest of the album was crafted.[3] Describing the song as "the true heart and soul of the record", Gaga emphasized how much Joanne had influenced her family and herself.[4]

Joanne died due to complications arising from the autoimmune disease lupus when she was 19 years old. In an interview, Gaga revealed that Joanne's lupus got more complicated after she experienced a sexual assault, and those complications resulted in her death.[5] The incident affected the Germanotta family and according to Gaga, the grief never left them completely.[3] Writing "Joanne" helped Gaga deal with her father's pain of losing his sister. During the New York City show of her Dive Bar Tour (2016), Gaga added that despite the song's relevance to her family, she wanted the track to appeal to everyone who had suffered the loss of any loved ones.[6]

The third track on the record, "Joanne" is the first time that the overall tempo of the album slows. The composition is stripped-down, with Gaga's vocals accompanied by an acoustic guitar.[16] The singer uses a different vocal register, making the song sound like a lullaby with added percussion sounds.[17] Andrew Unterberger of Billboard noted that the lyrics, which pay homage to Joanne, are written in the first person,[18] but the context is derived from Gaga's family's perspective about her aunt's death.[3] The tempo and somberness is further enhanced in the piano version, which highlighted only Gaga's vocals with only a piano in the back.[19] Samantha Schnurr from E! noted that there was an addition to the lyrics at the end, with Gaga uttering "Call me Joanne. xo, Joanne. xoxo, Joanne."[7]

The song featured writing and producing credit from Gaga and Ronson, with additional production on the track by BloodPop. Dave Russell and Joshua Blair recorded it at Shangri-La Studios, Malibu, California, where they were assisted by David Covell and Johnnie Burik. Additional recording work was performed by Blair and Justin Smith at Pink Duck Studios, Burbank, California.[20] Tom Elmhirst did the audio mixing of "Joanne" at Electric Lady Studios in New York, with assistance from Joe Visciano and Brandon Bost. The mastering was done at Sterling Sound Studios in New York, by Tom Coyne and Randy Merrill. "Joanne" featured a number of instrumentations, including bass, guitar, keyboards, and Mellotron strings by Ronson; rhythmic tracks by BloodPop; acoustic guitars by Harper Simon; and percussion by Gaga.[20]

Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone described "Joanne" as "a touching ballad", where "any trace of disco or glam" is muted by her "ostentatiously squeaky fingers on the guitar strings".[9] NME's Emily Mackay wrote that it is "a leavetaking song of great, simple beauty, more tenderly affecting than anything Gaga's done before, showcasing the emotive power rather than the force of that great voice".[21] Sal Cinquemani of Slant Magazine gave the track a positive review in comparison to other ballads on the album, stating that the song "boasts a sublime hook and a relatively restrained vocal performance".[22] Idolator's Patrick Brown said, "'Joanne' is definitely the best example of the 'real and personal' aesthetic Gaga has been talking up ahead of the album's release, full of pretty guitar picking and arguably her best vocal."[10] Marc Snetiker of Entertainment Weekly said that it was "Gaga's most disarming and original ballad in years".[23]

On January 24, 2018, Gaga revealed on Twitter that she would be releasing a music video along with a piano version of the song. The release was accompanied by the singer asking for donation to the Lupus Research Alliance based in New York City.[29] The clip, which debuted online two days later, continues the loose narrative depicted in the previous music videos for the Joanne album.[30] It starts from where the music video of "John Wayne" had ended, with Gaga venturing into the woods carrying her guitar.[31] The "Joanne" video alternates between black and white and colored scenes, showing the singer playing instruments, wandering outdoors, playing pool with her friends, and walking alone in the forest. The opening slide talks about who Joanne was, with the closing slide showing her birthday and the day of her passing.[30][7] The video features a cameo appearance from Gaga's sister, Natali Germanotta.[32]

"Joanne"'s first public appearance was on October 21, 2016, in a 15-second Budweiser commercial showing Gaga dancing in a dive bar and singing the track.[35] The advertisement was promoting her then-upcoming Dive Bar Tour, a brief three-date promotional tour of U.S. dive bars, where the track was performed.[36] The next performance of the song took place on the television show News Zero in Japan.[37] The song was part of Gaga's Joanne World Tour, where she performed it while sitting down and playing a guitar engraved with the name "Joanne".[38] During the sequence, Gaga was wearing a fringe blazer and a wide-brimmed hat.[39] Tom Murray of the Edmonton Journal said that the track was "the naked, emotional core of the show".[40]

"Joanne" was featured in the documentary film, Gaga: Five Foot Two, which chronicled the recording of the eponymous album and the singer's life. In one of the scenes, the singer and her father visit her grandmother at the nursing home, so that she can listen to the track about Joanne. Gaga's father is "overcome with emotion, [and] steps out of the room during the visit", and her grandmother reassures the singer that she "got it right" with the song.[44] Spencer Kornhaber of The Atlantic named it "the most memorable scene of the documentary".[45] Bonnie Stiernberg of Billboard said that "the film reaches an apex during [this] key scene", calling it "an intimate single-camera shot that moves from Gaga's grandmother's face to her father to Gaga, who plays the song on her cellphone".[46] Leslie Helperin of The Hollywood Reporter described the scene as "fascinating", adding that "[Gaga's] grandmother seems resistant to all this emotional hyperbole, insisting that the loss is well in the past now."[47]
