Lady Gaga’s Next Hit, ‘The Dead Dance’, is a Love Letter to Wednesday

Lady Gaga is channeling her inner goth for her next musical project. The superstar has unveiled “The Dead Dance,” a new single crafted for and featured in the second season of the Netflix series Wednesday. The song will be available worldwide on September 3, 2025.
The announcement was made at a special gala in New York on August 28. Gaga, flanked by Wednesday stars Jenna Ortega, Emma Myers, and Joy Sunday, shared that the track’s release will coincide with the premiere of the season’s second part, making it a major event for fans.
More than a musical guest, Gaga is now officially part of the Wednesday family. She confirmed she worked on the show, calling it a “wonderful time.” The mystery of her role deepened with a new trailer, which features a menacing voiceover that sounds distinctly like her, warning of a “price to pay.”
The fusion of Lady Gaga’s avant-garde style with the macabre world of Wednesday feels like a natural fit. As anticipation builds, this collaboration promises to be one of the most talked-about pop culture moments of the year.
