Viva La Vida - Lady Gaga - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Eccentric pop songstress Lady Gaga was on the crest of the wave in 2009, reveling in the astounding success of her multi-platinum studio debut The Fame and its deluxe reissue The Fame Monster. Combining anthemic pop structures with a slight penchant for the grotesque, singles like "Just Dance" and "Poker Face" turned pop music on its head and managed to make their way to the top of the charts in the United States, Canada, Australia, and the UK, turning Lady Gaga into an international sensation almost overnight. By the end of the year, the New York native had broken the record for the most downloaded female act in the US and spent 150 weeks on the UK Singles Chart. At the peak of her popularity, she made an appearance at BCC Radio 1's Live Lounge With Jo Whiley, where she performed a cover of the 2008 Coldplay hit single "Viva la Vida." Armed with just a piano and her powerful voice, Lady Gaga offered an earnest, stripped-down rendition that perfectly captured the grandiloquence behind the original version.
