The artist had to leave the set following some terrible news. In fact, she had just learned that her best friend, Sonja, had died of a combined terminal cancer of the breast, brain and lungs.

After speaking to the husband of her late friend on the phone, Lady Gaga made the decision to shoot the scene I Will Never Love Again, and sing the song in tribute to Sonja. She asked people on the set to help her, to think about her departed friend, and her husband.

The first words of the song then make sense: ‘Wish I could, I could’ve said goodbye, I would’ve said what I wanted to, Maybe even cried for you, If I knew it would be the last time.’
