Kylie Minogue has unveiled a cover of Lady Gaga‘s 2011 hit ‘Marry The Night’, as part of the latter’s ‘Born This Way’ re-release.
Minogue’s disco-infused version of ‘Marry The Night’ is the third song we’ve heard from the forthcoming 10th anniversary re-release of Gaga’s 2011 album. It follows on from Big Freedia’s rendition of ‘Judas’ and Orville Peck‘s “country road” cover of ‘Born This Way’.
The cover was initially teased on Twitter, when Minogue posted a brief video of herself with the caption “hey @ladygaga…what are you doing tonight?” alongside a crescent moon emoji.
Gaga then retweeted Kylie with three more crescent moon emojis. Upon the song’s release, Gaga called Minogue a “warrior queen”.
Listen to Minogue’s cover below:

As for Minogue, 2020 saw her release her 15th studio album ‘Disco’. In a four-star review of the album, NME‘s Nick Levine wrote, “The result is a consistently uplifting set that feels like Minogue’s best album since 2010’s ‘Aphrodite’.
“Her sister Dannii is rumoured to have claimed that “Minogues don’t sweat”. In that case, let’s say that ‘Disco’ shimmers with a warm glittery glow that’s just irresistible.”
Minogue also recently delivered vocals for a remix of Years & Years‘ latest track ‘Starstruck’. She has also confirmed that her and fellow disco revivalist Jessie Ware have been working on new music together.
