This Teaser for Lady Gaga’s ‘A Star Is Born’ Ballad ‘Is That Alright?’ Will Give You Chills
Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s A Star Is Born remake is set to open in theaters on October 5, with the highly anticipated soundtrack debuting that same day. In the meantime, Gaga just teased what sounds like another epic song from the film.
On Monday, September 24, ahead of the film’s Los Angeles premiere, Lady Gaga tweeted a minute-long clip featuring scenes from the film as well as a snippet of a song called “Is That Alright?” The piano ballad is a solo track from Gaga, featuring her powerful vocals front and center.

“I want you to look right in my eyes, to tell me you love me, to be by my side,” Gaga belts in the song’s sparse chorus as a montage of scenes of her on-screen relationship with Cooper, who also directed the film, flashes across the screen. “I want you at the end of my life. I want to see your face, when I fall with grace at the moment I die. Is that alright?”
The film’s soundtrack was previously revealed to have a whopping 34 tracks — 19 songs and 15 tracks of dialogue from the movie, intended to “take listeners on a journey that mirrors the experience of seeing the film.” Both Gaga and Cooper will be featured on solo tracks as well as on duets with each other.
A Star Is Born is a remake of the 1937 movie and its subsequent musicals. It follows Jackson Maine (Cooper), a washed-up star who falls for an up-and-coming singer named Ally (Gaga) as their professional and personal lives intertwine and suffer from Jackson’s demons.
A Star Is Born will be in theaters on October 5. You can listen to the preview of “Is That Alright?” above.
