High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles "Telephone" is a song written and performed by Lady Gaga. It was released from her third extended play (EP) and second major release The Fame Monster (2009). The song, featuring American R B singer Beyonc Knowles, was written by Gaga and Rodney Jerkins. Inspired by her "Fear of Suffocation Monster," Gaga explained that the lyrics portray herself preferring the dance floor instead of answering her lover's phone call and noted that the telephone addressed in the lyrics of the song is, in reality, a person telling her to continue working harder. Musically, "Telephone" consists of an expanded bridge, verse-rap and an epilogue where the voice of an operator announces that the phone line is unreachable. Knowles appears in the middle of the song, singing the verses in a rapid-fire way, accompanied by double beats.
