What does one do when Lady Gaga surprises the world with a rush release of her lead ARTPOP single while you’re just trying to get your “Roar” on? You counter it with a John Mayer collaboration.

No, I want to seriously doubt this was released to give Perry more buzz but it is perfect timing. This is the Teenage Dream Queen like you haven’t heard before, immersed in dry mellow balladry with a serious twang, I kind of dig it.

Stream the collaboration below. “Who You Love” is set to appear on John Mayer’s forthcoming album Paradise Valley, out August 20th.
