Of the newly announced song titles, the most enticing is certainly "Highway Unicorn (Road to Love)," the likely inspiration for the album's peculiar cover, in which the singer's body is morphed into a chrome-coated motorcycle. There is also a cut called "Heavy Metal Lover," which, along with the cover art and the hard rock guitars on a few of the tracks we've heard already, indicates that this may be Gaga's rock album.

“Message in a Bottle”

The Police | 1979

"Roxanne" was the band's first bona fide hit, and Sting wondered if he could top it, which is where the genesis for the Police's second big hit came from. "Then I wrote 'Message in a Bottle,' which was better than 'Roxanne'," the Police frontman said. Sting admitted he developed the lyrics around the title. "I don't write the first line of a song. It's a mistake. Then you have to come up with a second. I had this 'Message in a Bottle.' What's 'Message in a Bottle' about? It's usually about some guy with ragged trousers and a beard on a desert island."
