10 Things You Need To Know About Top Gun: Maverick
8. Lady Gaga Debuts A New Song
She may have only been born the year the film came out, but that hasn't stopped Lady Gaga from capturing the Top Gun feel with her new track Hold My Hand and its music video, which has since been released. The video for the song, a video directed by Joseph Kosinski, shows clips of Gaga in a white tank with a pair of aviators on. The clips are interrupted with shots of planes taking off, and the emotional lyrics are enough to make anyone cry.
Even if you aren’t a fan of Top Gun, this song is a great one for belting out in the shower or in the car. The song has been dubbed by fans as the heartbeat of the film. Cruise praised Gaga’s work on The Late Late Show, explaining how her work opens up the film emotionally and exposes the emotional side of things.
Gaga has since explained that the song is much more than a theme tune for the movie but rather a song dedicated to the people of the world as a love letter to help them through whatever they are currently going through. That’s some heavy stuff right there, and her voice does not fail to deliver!
