Though the “Abracadabra” chorus may sound like the infectious gibberish that Gaga first made a trademark in her 2009 hit “Bad Romance,” there’s actually a deeper meaning to the sounds.

"The category is dance... or die," Gaga announced sinisterly. “Abracadabra” is a fast-tempo dance track, reminiscent of Gaga’s innovative dark pop hits from the aughts and early 2010s.

There were at least a few Gaga superfans to whom the new song title did not come as a surprise — In the announcement video for ‘Mayhem,’ the word “Abracadabra” appeared in the background.
