UPDATE: Lady Gaga said in a tweet that the song was “written in NY on the piano” she grew up on.

It wouldn’t be an authentic Lady Gaga performance if the singer didn’t do something to keep the audience on their toes.

During the recent 12th Annual White Tie & Tiara Ball, Gaga chose to introduce a song no one had ever heard before. The record, titled “You and I,” was perfectly suited for an event benefitting the Elton John AIDS Foundation. (Couldn’t you just imagine those two artists playing it together at their own pianos?)

Although Gaga said she didn’t think the “rock ‘n’ roll tune” would ever be released as a single, I actually think it could do quite well. What do you think?
