Lady Gaga has revealed the lyrics for her upcoming single 'Applause' - and confirmed that her much talked about ARTPOP app will be free to download.
The singer took to Twitter to build further hype for her upcoming third studio album, first sharing lyrics from 'Applause', which is released on 19 August, 2013.
"Give me that thing that I love / put your hands up make 'em touch / A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E," she tweeted, before discussing the ARTPOP app, which is due for release on 11 November 2012.
"The ARTPOP app is Free, available in App Stores on your device. You can purchase the music through the ARTPOP app once it's downloaded," she tweeted. "Or you can purchase the album at the music store+download the free app separately at the app store."
The app will not come with the ARTPOP album included, and fans will need to 'fill' the app with music. The singer added: "The APP is in essence, an interactive jewel case."

Earlier this week, Gaga revealed the artwork for her new single 'Applause', which sees Gaga with her face painted like a clown.
'Applause' has been co written and produced by long time collaborator DJ White Shadow, and is the first single to be taken from the forthcoming album ARTPOP.
Commenting on the artwork for the single, she states: '"His is one jacket [designed by Gareth Pugh] This is one image. This is one moment. This is one statement.'
She continues, rather more cryptically that the statement is that she is 'not one icon' but 'every icon', adding: "I'm an icon that is made out of all the colors on the palette at every time. I have no restrictions. No restrictions."
