Written by Gaga (under her birth name Stefani Germanotta) and three collaborators, “Always Remember Us This Way” became an international hit. Jack spontaneously proposes to Ally with a make-shift engagement ring made from an intricately twisted guitar string, and the couple weds the same day at a church ministered by a relative of their friend, Noodles. She sings, “That Arizona sky burning in your eyes / You look at me and babe, I wanna catch on fire / It’s buried in my soul like California gold / You found the light in me that I couldn’t find.” The two fall for each other and Ally professes her love in our featured song, which contains a first-verse reference to a famous 1849 gold rush. Gaga plays Ally, an aspiring singer/songwriter, whose career is set into motion by Jackson “Jack” Maine, a famous country rock star, played by Bradley Cooper. I swirled my washbowl, swung my pick, my only goal to get rich quick A frenzied fervor seized my soul, just had to have California gold Chorus Gold, gold, gotta have gold Gold, gold, get me some gold Gold, gold, gotta have gold Gold, gold, get me some gold I left my home to seek my fame, I traveled in a wagon train.
