"Speechless" is a song written and performed by American singer Lady Gaga, from her third EP, The Fame Monster. The song was written by Gaga to convince her father, Joseph Germanotta, to undergo open-heart surgery, in order to repair his malfunctioning aortic valve, and as a reminder for her younger fans to appreciate their parents. "Speechless" is described as Gaga's "Fear of Death Monster". The 1970s rock music-inspired power ballad received mixed reviews from critics, who praised it for drawing influences from Queen, as well as its sincerity while others criticized it for "com[ing] off as a fraud. " "Speechless" debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 at ninety-four for the week of December 12, 2009. Gaga performed the song in a number of live appearances including the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards, the 2009 American Music Awards, the 2009 Royal Variety Performance, and The Monster Ball Tour (2009–2011).more »
