After filming on "Joker: Folie à Deux" was complete, Lady Gaga realized that she wasn't quite ready to let go of the character she'd meticulously researched, sculpted, and inhabited for so long. She began to imagine what a record would sound like from the perspective of "Harley Quinn," also known as "Lee." "Harlequin" is an album Lady Gaga had to make. A farewell to the character, conclusion for »Lee«. In this sense, "Harlequin" can be seen as a counterpart to "Joker 2", but it is even more – it is Lady Gaga who fully realises an artistic vision. There are 13 songs that merge jazz, surf punk, blues and classics into an album that feels familiar and completely new at the same time. And while fans are eagerly awaiting her return to pop, she's still having fun indulging her creative curiosity and giving us »LG6,5« while the world waits for the next project, »LG7«. Reviews
