"My parents got me Signed, Sealed, Delivered by Stevie Wonder and The Beatles when I was younger. Good choices, mom and dad. Don't spoon-feed me The Beatles and Stevie Wonder and Bruce Springsteen and Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin and Elton John and expect for me not to turn out this way", said she.

According to Lady GaGa, she still draws inspiration from these artists.
