karaoke
How do I get closer to you
When you keep it all on mute?
How will I know the right way to love you?
Usually the queen of figuring out
Breaking down a man is no work out
But I have no clue
How to get through to you
Oh, I wanna hit you just to see if you cry
I keep knocking on wood
Hoping there's a real boy inside
'Cause you're not a man
You're just a mannequin
I wish you could feel that my love is real
But you're not a man
I wish I could just turn you on
Put a battery in and make you talk
Even pull a string for you to say anything
But with you there is no guarantee
Only expired warranty
A bunch of broken parts
And I can't seem to find your heart
Oh, I'm such a fool, I'm such a fool, I'm such a fool
This one's outta my hands
I can't put you back together again
'Cause you're not a man
You're just a mannequin
I wish you could feel that my love is real
But you're not a man
You're just a toy
Could you ever be a real, real boy
And understand?
But you're not a man
If the past is the problem
Our future could solve them, baby
I could bring you to life if you let me inside, baby
It will hurt but in the end you'll be a man
You're not a man
You're just a mannequin
I wish you could feel that my love is real
You're a toy
Could you ever be a real, real boy
And understand?
But you're not a man
You're not a man
You're just a mannequin
I wish you could feel that my love is real
I’m out on my own again
Face down in the porcelain
Feeling so high but looking so low
Party favors on the floor
Group of girls banging on the door
So many new fair-weather friends ooo…
Have you ever been so lost
Known the way and still so lost
Caught in the eye of a hurricane
Slowly waving goodbye like a pageant parade
So sick of this town pulling me down
My mother says I should come back home but
Can’t find the way cause the way is gone
So if I pray am I just sending words into outer space
Have you ever been so lost
Known the way and still so lost
Another night waiting for someone to take me home
Have you ever been so lost
Is there a light
Is there a light
At the end of the road
I’m pushing everyone away
‘Cause I can’t feel this anymore
Can’t feel this anymore
Have you ever been so lost
Known the way and still so lost
Another night waiting for someone to take me home
Have you ever been so lost
I felt it
The wire touched my neck and
Then someone pulled it tighter
I never saw it coming
I started to black out and
Then someone said good morning
I took it as a warning
I should have seen it coming
So now I'll take a chance on
This thing we may have started
Intentional or not I
Don't think we saw it coming
It's all adding up to something
That as of some involvement
That as for our commitment
I think I see it coming
If we step out on that limb
My heart beat, beats me senselessly
Why's everything got to be so intense with me?
I'm trying to handle all this unpredictability
In all probability
It's a long shot and I say why not
If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat the odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it
There's no chance
'Cause you're the best I've got
So take the long shot
I realize that there is all this starting
That we're both scared about but
We'll never see them coming
Throw caution to the wind and
We'll see which way it's blowing
And to this pulling on
We'll never see it coming
'Til it's much to close to stop
My heart beat, beats me senselessly
Why's everything got to be so intense with me?
I'm trying to handle all this unpredictability
And all probability
It's a long shot but I say why not
If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat the odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it
There's no chance
'Cause I'm the best you got
So take the long shot
What a pleasant surprise
What a breath of fresh air
You knock the wind out of me
Blindsided and so unaware
Aha, aha, aha
Oh, I waited for fact to come of fiction
And you fit my description
I never saw you coming
But we'll make it even though
It's a long shot but I say why not
If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat the odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it
There's no chance
'Cause you're the best I got
So take the long shot
You didn't expect this
Oh, you never saw me coming
You didn't expect this
Oh, you never saw this coming
I take the long shot
I take the long shot
Shot, shot, shot, shot
'Cause you're the best I got
Oh, I'm take this chance on you, baby
I'm take this chance on you, baby
Life is just a party so come as you are.
Dress it up or dress it down, never forget your guitar.
Just be courageous, this styles contagious
Everyone can rock out like a superstar.

There's a stranger in my bed,
There's a pounding in my head
Glitter all over the room
Pink flamingos in the pool
I smell like a minibar
DJ's passed out in the yard
Barbie's on the barbeque
Is this a hickie or a bruise
( pre chorus )
Pictures of last night
Ended up online
I'm screwed
Oh well
It's a blacked-out blur
But I'm pretty sure
It ruled
Damn
( Chorus )
Last Friday night
Yeah we danced on tabletops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed but I forgot
Last Friday night
Yeah we maxed our credit cards
and got kicked out of the bar
So we hit the boulevard
Last Friday night
We went streaking in the park
Skinny dipping in the dark
Then had a ménage à trois
Last Friday night
Yeah I think we broke the law
Always say we're gonna stop
Whoa
But this Friday night
Do it all again
This Friday night
Do it all again
Trying to connect the dots
Don't know what to tell my boss
Think the city towed my car
Chandelier is on the floor
Ripped my favorite party dress
Warrants out for my arrest
Think I need a ginger ale
That was such an epic fail
( Pre chorus )
Pictures of last night
Ended up online
I'm screwed

But this Friday night
This was big for us
Forever changing you and me
Allow me to be ambiguous
Though I can't stand ambiguity
I'll beat around this burning bush
Trying to put the fire out
When all the shoving came to push
The words just stayed stuck in my mouth
Cause it's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your live for someone
Ba da da dum
It's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your live for someone yeah
Ba da da dum
So we might lose
But I'm glad I didn't leave
I wear my soul on my shoes
If not my heart upon my sleeve
If I'm not allowed to speak aloud
Of what you really mean to me
Then 'll type it bold when I spell it out
I.T.S. L.O.V.E.
Cause it's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your live for someone yeah
Ba da da dum
Oh Oh Oh
It's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your life for someone yeah
Ba da da dum
So why do I hesitate for my cocoon to break
Second guess every move that I make
(Second guess every move that you make)
This was big for us
Changing you and me
Cause it's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your live for someone yeah
Oh Oh Yeah
Oh it's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your live for someone yeah
Ba da da dum
Oh somebody tell me
It's okay to believe in something
It's alright to live your life for someone yeah
Ba da da dum
Stand up for what you believe in
Take pride for who you are
Yeah Yeah
Oh Yeah
Stand up for what you believe in
Take pride for who you are
Yeah Yeah
Stand up for what you believe in
Take pride for who you are
you come over, don't talk,
turn the tv on off,
disconnected, i'm affected,
better take the call
showed you pictures of my hometown,
a pin could drop from miles down,
what's the use in tryin' to be a girlfriend, when i know just what we are
there's nothing, in common, except the bed we lay on
i won't be caught between something and nothing,
when you know that nothing is for free,
cuz in the end it's me who pulls the covers,
and it's empty in between
your a hot-lipped, i can't break,
disaster to eliminate,
what part of no do i not understand, when your not good for me
cuz i know we will never, be some kind of forever
i won't be caught between something and nothing,
when you know that nothing is for free,
cuz in the end it's me who pulls the covers,
and it's empty in between,
cuz i'm the girl who needs it all or nothing,
how did we become a one night stand,
hanging on a thread just isn't something,
that i wan't in the end
it's empty in between
you come over, now it's over,
yeah i know just what we are
i won't be caught between something and nothing,
when you know that nothing is for free,
cuz in the end it's me who pulls the covers,
and it's empty in between,
cuz i'm the girl who needs it all or nothing,
how did we become a one night stand,
hanging on a thread just isn't something,
that i wan't in the end
I leave the gas on, walk the alleys in the dark
Sleep with candles burning, I leave the door unlocked
I'm weaving a rope and running all the red lights
Did I get your attention? 'Cause I'm sending all the signs
That the clock is ticking and I'll be giving my two weeks
Pick your favorite shade of black you'd best prepare a speech
Say something funny, say something sweet
But don't say that you loved me
I'm still breathing
But we've been dead for a while
This sickness has no cure, we're going down for sure
Already lost our grip, best abandon ship, oh
Maybe I was too pale, maybe I was too fat
Maybe you had better, better luck in the sack
No formal education, I swore way too much
I swear you didn't care 'cause we were in love
So as I write this letter and shed my last tear
Know it's all for the better that we end this here
Let's close this chapter, say one last prayer
But don't say that you loved me
I'm still breathing
But we've been dead for awhile
This sickness has no cure, we're going down for sure
Oh we've been diagnosed, so let's give up the ghost
'Cause I'm still breathing
But we've been dead for a while
This sickness has no cure, we're going down for sure
Already lost our grip, best abandon ship, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing

Just wanna try you on I'm curious for you Caught my attention.
Chorus
I kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it
Katty Perry2
No, I don't even know your name
It doesn't matter
You're my experimental game
Just human nature
It's not what, good girls do
Not how they should behave
My head gets so confused
Hard to obey
Katty Perry{Chorus 2}
I kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it
Us girls we are so magical/ Soft skin, red lips, so kissable/ Hard to resist so touchable/ Too good to deny it/ Ain't no big deal, it's innocent.
Mims{Verse 2}

I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
You change your mind like a girl changes clothes
Yeah, you change your mind like a girl I would know
And you always think, always speak cryptically
I should know that you're no good for me
'Cause you're hot and you're cold
You're yes and you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
You're black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We hug, we make up
You, you don't really wanna stay, no
But you, you don't really wanna go, oh
'Cause you're hot and you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
We used to be just like twins, so in sync
The same energy now's a dead battery
Used to laugh 'bout nothing, now you're plain boring
I should know that you're not gonna change
'Cause you're hot and you're cold
You're yes and you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
You're black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We hug, we make up
You, you don't really wanna stay, no
But you, you don't really wanna go, oh
You're hot and you're cold
You're yes and you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
Someone call the doctor
Got a case of a love disorder
Stuck on a roller coaster
Can't get off this ride
You change your mind like a girl changes clothes
'Cause you're hot and you're cold
You're yes and you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
You're black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We hug, we make up
You, you don't really wanna stay, no
But you, you don't really wanna go, oh
You're hot and you're cold
You're yes and you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
Oh, sweetheart
Put the bottle down
You've got
Too much talent
I see you
Through those
Bloodshot eyes
There's a cure
You've found it
Slow motion
sparks you caught that chill
Now don't deny it
But boys will be boys
Oh, yes they will
They don't want
To define it
Just give up the game
And get into me
If you're looking
For thrills
Then get cold feet
Oh, no
I do not
Hook up, up
I go slow
So if you want me
I don't come cheap
Keep your thing
In your pants
And your heart
On your sleeve
Oh, no
I do not
Hook up, up
I fall deep
Cause the more that you try
The harder i'll fight
To say goodnight
I can't cook, no
But i can clean
Up the mess you left
Lay your head down
And feel the beat
As i kiss
Your forehead
This may not
Last but this is now
So love the one
You're with
You wanna chase
But you're chasing
Your tail
Quick fix
Won't ever
Get you well
Oh, no
I do not
Hook up, up
I go slow
So if you want me
I don't come cheap
Keep your thing
In your pants
And your heart
On your sleeve
Oh, no
I do not
Hook up, up
I fall deep
Cause the more
that you try
The harder
I'll fight
To say goodnight
Cause i feel
The distance
Between us
Could be over
With a snap
Of your fingers
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
Oh, no
I do not
Hook up, up
I go slow
So if you want me
I don't come cheap
Keep your thing
In your pants
And your heart
On your sleeve
Oh, no
I do not
Hook up, up
I fall deep
Cause the more
that you try
The harder
I'll fight
To say goodnight
Oh, sweetheart
Put the bottle down
Cause you dont wanna
You're so hypnotizing
Could you be the devil?
Could you be an angel?
Your touch magnetizing
Feels like I am floating
Leaves my body glowing
They say be afraid
You're not like the others
Futuristic lover
Different DNA
They don't understand you
You're from a whole other world
A different dimension
You open my eyes
And I'm ready to go
Lead me into the light
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison
Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch are foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial
You're so supersonic
Wanna feel your powers
Stun me with your lasers
Your kiss is cosmic
Every move is magic
You're from a whole other world
A different dimension
You open my eyes
And I'm ready to go
Lead me into the light
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison
Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch are foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial
There is this transcendental
On another level
Boy, you're my lucky star
I wanna walk on your wave length
And be there when you vibrate
For you I'll risk it all, all
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison
Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch are foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial
Extraterrestrial
Extraterrestrial
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch are foreign
It's supernatural
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep?
Six feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you?
You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July
'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down
You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow
Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know
You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom

Saucer of milk
Table for two
You wanna pet my kitty
Your such a dirty doggy.
Its your lucky night
Cause Im in the mood
Oh, I'm feeling spicy
I'm feeling real naughty.
Pick a part, you dream it up.
A dark vixen, a Lolita.
Oh boy, tell me your fantasy,
Tonight's the night, I'm dressin' up for you.
I can tell you're obsessed
By your shortness of breath.
Ooh, my cookie monster
Wants a taste test.
Be a good boy
And I'll show you the rest
Ooh, my little voyeur
Wants to play explorer.
Pick a part, you dream it up.
Librarian, dominatrix.
Oh boy, tell me your fantasy,
Tonight's the night (Tonight's the night)
(Chorus)
Tonight I'm gonna come alive
Make you forget about your
nine-to-five
Are you ready for your blood to rise
Tonight's the night I'm dressin' up for you (dressin' up)
You're getting hot
So let's call the nurse
Ooh, I feel a fever
Let's take your temperature
Better Behave
or a police officer
Will have to hold you down
Give you what you deserve
Pick a part, you dream it up.
Use your imagination
Oh boy, I'll be your fantasy,
Tonight's the night (Tonight's the night)

Tide
Tight
Teasing
Push
Pull
Pressure
Pleasing
Beads of sweat drip down your neck
Breathing deep, gaining speed, about to peak
Trembling
Trembling
Trembling

Dressin' up
I'm dressin' up for you
I'm dressin' up x5
For you
I'm dressin' up
we woke up late, said goodbye
now im standing outside on the street
i walk through the city, im laughing
boucayes starting down at my feet
if i look up, the sky might fall
open up and pull me in
i feel like an angel who's fallen
but i just got to have the taste of original sin
damn, can you feel it?
damn i cant believe it
damn you got me feeling good
damn, do you dig it
that's the way you do it
damn you know you give it good
two minutes later, im counting
the seconds and hours to go
working a sweat out of bed
just the thought of you is making me glow
i got the fact that you get it good
now back up and just leave it alone
im walking on air cuz your crunk
now im going home to do it all again on my own
damn, can you feel it?
damn i cant believe it
damn you got me feeling good
damn, do you dig it
that's the way you do it
damn you know you give it good
you got my tongue, its so tied
my eyes are open wide
and my hair is standing up on my skin
and i keep saying:
damn, do you dig it
that's the way you do it
damn you know you give it good
walk through the door, and enter your room
cuz this whole world lies but you tell the truth
do you think im gonna give you up?
your never gonna let me down
your love is like an ocean and im starting to drown
damn, can you feel it?
damn i cant believe it
damn you got me feeling good
damn, do you dig it
that's the way you do it
damn you know you give it good
you got my tongue, its so tied
my eyes are open wide
and my hair is standing up on my skin
and i keep saying:
damn, do you dig it
that's the way you do it

But you don't really wanna go, oh
Cos' you're hot n your cold
You're Connor and Joe
Been out with Miles and James
Your love always changed
You and Joe used to be just like twins
So in sync
Our old energy's
Now a dead battery
Used to sob over it

This is the last time, you say
After the last you line you break
It's not even a holiday
Nothing to celebrate
You give a hundred reasons why
And say you're really gonna try
If I had a nickel for every time
I'd own the bank
Thought that I was the exception
I could rewrite your addiction
You could've been the greatest
But you'd rather get wasted
You fall asleep during foreplay
'Cause the pills you take are more your forte
I'm not sticking around
To watch you go down
Wanna be your lover, not your fucking mother
Can't be your savior, I don't have the power
I'm not gonna stay and watch you circle the drain
Watch you circle the drain, watch you circle the drain
You say you have to write your rhymes
Whatever helps you sleep at night
You've become what you despise
A stereotype
You think you're so rock and roll
But you're really just a joke
Had the world in the palm of your hands
But you fucking choked
Should've been my teammate
Could've changed your fate
You say that you love me
You won't remember in the morning
You fall asleep during foreplay
'Cause the pills you take are more your forte
I'm not sticking around
To watch you go down
Wanna be your lover, not your fucking mother
Can't be your savior, I don't have the power
I'm not gonna stay and watch you circle the drain
Watch you circle the drain, watch you circle the drain
You fall asleep during foreplay
'Cause the pills you take are more your forte
I'm not sticking around
(I'm not sticking around)
To watch you go down
(I'm not sticking around)
Wanna be your lover, not your fucking mother
Can't be your savior, I don't have the power
I'm not gonna stay and watch you circle the drain
Watch you circle the drain, watch you circle the drain
Watch you circle the drain, watch you circle the drain
You're going down, you're going down
You're going down, you're going down
You fall asleep during foreplay
'Cause the pills you take are more your forte

No one wants to be alone

When everything is broken?
What do you say? What do you say
When no words fit the moment?
'Cause you're not here
And even if you were, all I could say is
What do I do? What do I do?
We're broken but I can't throw us away
The video of our vacation's
Chewed up in the drawer beside me
She thinks I never got to watch it
I'm so glad I made a copy
The sky got bitter twisted
Just like you and me, I miss it
You snap it, bend it, burn it
Then you find that you can't fix it
Fall back on whatever still remains
What do you do? What do you do
When everything is broken?
What do you say? What do you say
When no words fit the moment?
'Cause you're not here
And even if you were, all I could say is
What do I do? What do I do?
We're broken but I can't throw us away
Breaking you in, breaking your heart
I was taking it all and I tore you apart
Breaking me in, breaking my heart
And the damage was done but I took what you got
We were breakin' it, smashin' it
Takin' it, lovin' it, hatin' it, drivin' it home
And now I'm all and now I'm all alone
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ohh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ohh what do you do? Ohh, what do you do?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
What do you do? What do you do
When everything is broken?
What do you say? What do you say
When no words fit the moment?
'Cause you're not here
And even if you were, all I could say is
What do I do? What do I do?
Every week's

If the fish swam out of the ocean
And grew legs and they started walking
And the apes climbed down from the trees
And grew tall and they started talking
And the stars fell out of the sky
And my tears rolled into the ocean
Now I'm looking for a reason why
You even set my world into motion
'Cause if you're not really here
Then the stars don't even matter
Now I'm filled to the top with fear
That it's all just a bunch of matter
'Cause if you're not really here
Then I don't wanna be either
I wanna be next to you
Black and gold, black and gold, black and gold
I looked up into the gray sky
And see a thousand eyes staring back
And all around these golden beacons
I see nothing but black
I feel the weight of something beyond them
I don't see what I can feel
If vision is the only validation
Then most of my life isn't real
'Cause if you're not really here
Then the stars don't even matter
Now I'm filled to the top with fear
That it's all just a bunch of matter
'Cause if you're not really here
Then I don't wanna be either
I wanna be next to you
Black and gold, black and gold, black and gold
'Cause if you're not really here
Then the stars don't even matter
Now I'm filled to the top with fear
That it's all just a bunch of matter
'Cause if you're not really here
Then I don't wanna be either
I wanna be next to you
Black and gold, black and gold, black and gold
Black and gold, black and gold
I will never be, I will never be tall, no
And I will never be, never ever be sure of it all
Oh, why's the world so cruel to me?
When all, all I ever wanna be is anything I'm not
Gimme a break, a little escape
I am so tired of being me
I wanna be free, I wanna be new and different
Anything I'm not, I'm not
I will never be, I will never be you, no
I will always be, I will always be me, that I know
But oh, even though I'm happy being me
I want to get away from all this harsh reality, oh
Gimme a break, a little escape
I am so tired of being me
I wanna be free, I wanna be new and different
Anything I'm not
Yeah, gimme a break, a little escape
I am so tired of being me
I wanna be free, I wanna be new and different
Anything I'm not, anything I'm not
Oh, anything I'm not
Gimme a break, a little escape
I am so tired of being me
I wanna be free, I wanna be new and different
Anything I'm not
Yeah, gimme a break, a little escape
I am so tired of being me
I wanna be free, I want to be new and different
Anything I'm not, anything I'm not
Anything I'm not, anything I'm not
I take these turns
A bit too fast
Trying to leave you
In my past
The CD skips
Our favorite songs
Our greatest hits
Just don't belong
I really love
To hate this
Love hate
Hate love relationships
Are over, rated
Over my dead body
Is how this will end
He said it's over
And I could go for
Another chance to do
This over again
So this is it?
After all
We've been thru
We call it quits
And-a I'm about to
Wash my prints
The little I had left
He said it's over
And I could really go
For a cup of coffee
And an overdose
Leave it all behind me
You'll see it
When you finally find me
Comatose or pretty close
Cup of coffee
And an overdose
I pop these pills
Like cracker jacks
And the price
That plays dice
Just watching you react
When your depressed you
Sleep too much
I'm not sure
If I'm waking up
It's over, rated
Over my dead body
Is how this will end
You said it'd over
And I could go
For another chance to do
This over again
So this is it?
After all
We've been thru
We call it quits
And-a i'm about
To wash my prints
The little I had left
He said it's over
And I could really go
For a cup of coffee
And an overdose
Leave it all behind me
You'll see it
When you finally find me
Comatose or pretty close
Cup of coffee
And an overdose
He said it's over
And I could really go
For a cup of coffee
And an overdose
Leave it all behind me
You'll see it
When you finally find me
Comatose or pretty close
I stood in line
Without you
I stood in line
Without you
And I don't tell you
What it is
I thought about you
Well without you
Everything comes around again
The circus returns to town again
Oh, no… oh, yeah
Now you are at my door again
Crawling around my floor again, oh yeah
‘Cause your love is gone and
Your all alone and you miss me
But you didn’t miss me when
I was all alone your back ’cause you know
I can’t help but love you
I can’t help but kiss you
I can’t help but let you in
I’m off to the slaughter and off to the lifehole
Right back to where we begin
Everything comes around again
What goes up will come down again
Oh, no… oh, yes
Wearing your old white dress again
Making my head a mess again
‘Cause your love is gone and
Your all alone and you miss me
But you didn’t miss me when
I was all alone your back ’cause you know
I can’t help but love you
I can’t help but kiss you
I can’t help but let you in
I’m off to the slaughter and off to the lifehole
Right back to where we begin
‘Cause the love has gone
And your on your own
‘Cause you missed me la la la la
You just press rewind we go back in time
‘Cause your love is gone and
Your all alone and you miss me
But you didn’t miss me when
I was all alone your back caz you know
I can’t help but love you
I can’t help but kiss you
I can’t help but let you in
I’m off to the slaughter and off to the lifehole
Right back to where we begin
Can’t help but love you
I can’t help but kiss you
I can’t help but let you in
You miss me you miss me
Your love has gone and your all alone
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Yeah, I was in the dark
I was falling hard
With an open heart
I'm wide awake
How did I read the stars so wrong
I'm wide awake
And now it's clear to me
That everything you see
Ain't always what it seems
I'm wide awake
Yeah, I was dreaming for so long[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I knew then
What I know now
Wouldn't dive in
Wouldn't bow down
Gravity hurts
You made it so sweet
Till I woke up on
On the concrete[Chorus]
Falling from cloud 9
Crashing from the high
I'm letting go tonight
(Yeah I'm) Falling from cloud 9
I'm wide awake
Not losing any sleep
I picked up every piece
And landed on my feet
I'm wide awake
Need nothing to complete myself - nooohooo
I'm wide awake
Yeah, I am born again
Outta the lion's den
I don't have to pretend
And it's too late
The story's over now, the end[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I knew then
What I know now
Wouldn't dive in
Wouldn't bow down
Gravity hurts
You made it so sweet
Till I woke up on
On the concrete[Chorus]
Falling from cloud 9
Crashing from the high
I'm letting go tonight (yeah, I'm letting go)
I'm Falling from cloud 9
Thunder rumbling
Castles crumbling
I am trying to hold on
God knows that I tried
Seeing the bright side
But I'm not blind anymore...
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm Falling from cloud 9
Crashing from the high
You know I'm letting go tonight
I'm Falling from cloud 9
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
We're looking in the same direction
But you don't see what I see
Just a half moon in your perception
It looks full to me
Oh my head is caught, caught in clouds
But your buried so, so far down
You drag me down to earth
You stomp my heart it hurts
You weigh me down
The way your pulling me
You're worse than gravity
You weigh me down
You weigh me down
Your words can pollute the future
So you should choose carefully
Cynical is a natural born killer
If it were up to me I would say
Lets get you all medicated
So we can get dedicated
You drag me down to earth
You stomp my heart it hurts
You weigh me down
The way you're pulling me
You're worse than gravity
You weigh me down
You weigh me down
This is not a race
This is the relationship
But you take the cake at being the worst in it
Try and keep me grounded
You took my faith and nearly drowned it
This is not a test
This is the relationship
You are the best in being Mr. Negative
You weigh me down
You drag me down to earth
You stomp my heart it hurts
You weigh me down
The way you're pulling me
You're worse than gravity
You weigh me down
You weigh me down
You drag me down to earth
You stomp my heart it hurts
You weigh me down
The way you're pulling me
You're worse than gravity
You weigh me down
You weigh me down
You gotta help me out
It's all a blur last night
We need a taxi
'Cause you're hung over and I'm broke
I lost my fake ID
But you lost the motel key
Spare me your freaking dirty looks
Now don't blame me
You wanna cash out
And get the hell outta town
Don't be a baby
Remember what you told me
Shut up and put your money where your mouth is
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
Get up and shake the glitter off your clothes now
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
Why are these lights so bright?
Did we get hitched last night?
Dressed up like Elvis
Why am I wearing your class ring?
Don't call your mother
'Cause now we're partners in crime
Don't be a baby
Remember what you told me
Shut up and put your money where your mouth is
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
Get up and shake the glitter off your clothes now
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
You got me into this
Information overload, situation lost control
Send out an S.O.S.
Ha, and get some cash out
We're gonna tear up the town
No, don't be a baby
Remember what you told me
Remember what you told me
Remember what you told me
Told me, told me, oh yeah
Shut up and put your money where your mouth is
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
Get up and shake the glitter off your clothes now
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
That's what you get, baby
Shake the glitter
Shake, shake, shake the glitter
Gimme some cash out, baby
Gimme some cash out, baby

Trying to stop my head from spinning
Too much to drink not makin' sense
Been a while since I've been with someone new
But i can't stop the way I'm feeling
As you leave please would you just please close the door

go find a shoulder to cry upon
I just wanna use your love tonight-tonight-tonight-tonight-toniiiiight
I don't wanna lose your love toniiiiight
you don't mean nothing at all to me
I think I'm done fine at singing this song song x3
I hope you hang yourself with your H&M; scarf
While jacking off listening to Mozart
You bitch and moan about LA
Wishing you were in the rain reading Hemingway
You don't eat meat
And drive electrical cars
You're so indie rock it's almost an art
You need SPF 45 just to stay alive
You're so gay and you don't even like boys
No, you don't even like
No, you don't even like
No, you don't even like boys
You're so gay and you don't even like boys
No, you don't even like
No, you don't even like
No, you don't even like
You're so sad maybe you should buy a Happy Meal
You're so skinny you should really Supersize the deal
Secretly you're so amused
That nobody understands you
I'm so mean 'cause I cannot get you outta your head
I'm so angry 'cause you'd rather MySpace instead
I can't believe I fell in love
With someone that wears more makeup than
You're so gay and you don't even like boys
No, you don't even like

You're so gay and you don't even like boys
No, you don't even like
No, you don't even like

I wish you would just be real with me
You're so gay and you don't even like boys
No, you don't even like
No, you don't even like

I've played the song,
Now it drives me crazy
I've run the race
Now I'm too damn lazy
This love of ours
Is a fading photograph yeah yeah
Now I must approach to life today,
Seems a little different,
Hard to say,
But it looks like the end.
Time's up
Promise this time I'll get it off
Better we slam the door shut
Didn't you know if nothing
Changes nothing changes.
Time's up
Promise this time I'll get it off
Better we turn the lights off
Love is a train we wait for it
Even when it's gone.
We've surfed the wave
Now we've hit the short end
We've squeezed the fruit
Till there's no more juice left.
We're both so good
Good at keeping up the lie yeah yeah
Hey but no one's got to die
We can get it in prospective,
Kiss my lips
Life is what we make it.
Time's up
Promise this time I'll get it off
Better we slam the door shut
Didn't you know if nothing
Changes nothing changes.
Time's up,
Promise this time I'll get it off
Better we turn the lights off
Love is a train we wait for it
Even when it's gone.
As I'm waving you goodbye
I want you to smile
Save a picture in your frame
File it right next to my name
I'm willing to die
For love willing to try
But not willing to lie for love
I know that this cakes already baked
Now it's burning burning.
We can get it in prospective,
Kiss my lips
Life is what we make it
Time's up
Promise this time I'll get it off
Better we slam the door shut,
Didn't you know if nothing
Changes nothing changes.
Times up,
Promise this time I'll get it off
Better we turn the lights off
Love is a train we wait for it yeah yeah
Even when it's gone.
Time's up,
Promise this time I get enough,
Promise this time I'll get it off
Love is a train we wait for it
Summer after high school when we first met
We make out in your Mustang to Radio head
And on my 18th birthday we got that chain tattoos
Used to steal your parents' liquor and climb to the roof
Talk about our future like we had a clue
Never plan that one day I'd be losing you
And in another life I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
And in other life I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away
I was dreaming you were my Johnny Cash
Never one, we got the other, we made a pact
Sometimes when I miss you, I put those records on, whoa
Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Saw you downtown singing the blues
It's time to face the music, I'm longer your muse
And in another life I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
And in another life, I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away
The one, the one, the one
The one that got away
All these money can't buy me a time machine, no
Can't replace you with a million rings, no
I should've told you what you meant to me, whoa
'Cause now I pay the price
In another life I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
And in another life, I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away
The one, the one, the one, the one
And in another life I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
Got a call from my friend
She saw my picture again
In a magazine
We laughed out loud
'Cuz she said "remeber when...
This was all a silly dream?
Now I wake up every day
In a different city
A smile on my face
Somebody pinch me
She said "all the world's a satge"
But girl you know
Those cameras and lights
Won't ever change me
I don't drink champagne
When I'm back home with my friends
We sip on tea on the porch
'Cuz I'm still the girl next door
No fancy things when I come off tour
I slip back into my jeans
'Cuz I'm still the girl next door
It's amazin' to hear people singin' along
Hear the radio playin' my song
I still get butterflies
Still get nervous inside
In the spotlight
Now every now n then
On a friday night
Cruisin' down to the dive bar
We waste the night away
Spend saturday sleepin' in late
Those were the good days
I don't drink champagne
When I'm back home with my friends
We sip on tea on the porch
'Cuz I'm still the girl next door
No fancy things when I come off tour
I slip back into my jeans
'Cuz I'm still the girl next door
And even when I'm miles away
I'll always have the roots from where I came
Cuz when it all fades away
My home will still be the same
Yeah eh
Yeah...
I don't drink champagne
When I'm back home with my friends
We sip on tea on the porch
'Cuz I'm still the girl next door
No fancy things when I come off tour
I slip back into my jeans
Remember last summer,
Under the shooting stars?
We made a wish were together forever,
And let nobody tear us apart.
And how fun was that ride down to Mexico?
We took a chance on those road side tacos,
And we got sick by the side of the road.
And the fall came,
And we had that big pot lot party;
And your little sixteen year old brother,
Spilt wine all over my carpet.
And I got mad, you thought it was funny,
I stayed mad all winter;
It's so sad,
A thing like that,
Becomes such a splinter.
I tried it your way,
But I got nothing to show.
It's been the same, same,
And the story's getting old.
So, I guess the driveway,
Is the end of the road.
For us it's too, late.
Let the credits start to roll.
I'm almost twenty-three,
And I'm barely hanging on.
I can't keep crashing couches
And going to sleep at dawn.
And when were you going to take me somewhere that I can dress up?
Where we can act grown up.
Do you ever wanna clean up?
We share a car, you thought it was okay;
You couldn't have cut it closer.
I'm sick of it, this is it;
And now the party's over.
I tried it your way,
But I got nothing to show.
It's been the same, same, and
The story's getting old.
So, I guess the driveway,
Is the end of the road.
For us it's too, late.
Let the credits start to roll.
Someday, you'll make, some girl, happy;
I know, you'll get though.
You'll know, just what, to say, to do;
Because I showed you.
I tried it your way,
But I got nothing to show.
It's been the same, same,
And the story's getting old.
So, I guess the driveway,
Is the end of the road.
For us it's too, late.
Let the credits start to roll.
Let the credits start to roll.
Oh, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yeah.
Oh, it's too late, it's too late, it's too late
I was living in a small mind with no lifeline
And no messages can reach me from the outside
When I looked out over the horizon
Didn't notice the sun was setting or just rising
Then it hit me, maybe bit me
Then I knew, quite a few would not go with me
I didn't know exactly where I would be going
But I had to let this river in me flowing
What a ride
When you open your eyes
For the very first time
A real surprise
I started living outside of the box
Crossing over lines where I always used to stop
Living outside of the box
'Cause I'm not gonna be anybody that I'm not
I always knew this day would come
When I got off my back, found some motivation
I've been living on the other side
Come hell or high water every moment I'm alive
I was living on a fault line, the fault was all mine
And this unstable ground found me down half the time
But I had enough, I had to get up
I had to shrug it all off 'cause it's the same old stuff
Then it hit me, you won't permit me
To be an individual just doesn't fit me
But I decided that it's going to be living
Yeah, I decided I'm escaping from your prison
What a high
When you open your mind
For the very first time
A real surprise
I started living outside of the box
Crossing over lines where I always used to stop
Living outside of the box
'Cause I'm not gonna be anybody that I'm not
I always knew this day would come
When I got off my back, found some motivation
I've been living on the other side
Come hell or high water every moment I'm alive
So long conformity
And ambiguality is a new priority
All it takes, for heaven sakes
Is to figure out the face and learn to separate
I started living outside for the box
Taking my time when I always used to rush
Living outside of the box
'Cause I'm not gonna be anybody that I'm not
I always knew this day would come
When I broke down the walls for my liberation
I've been living on the other side
Come hell or high water every moment I'm alive
Oh, living outside of the box
Oh, living outside of the box
Oh, living outside
Ha ha ha
I always knew this day would come
When I got off my back, found some motivation
Oh, living outside of the box, of the box, of your life
I took advantage of you a stepping stone to my pedestal
When you had enough of it
I said fine good luck replacing this
Cause I seem strong and independent self sufficient, confident
And I'm like mercury rising to the top so selfishly
The better half of me was you
I'm like a hive without a bee without you
I gotta find ya gotta, remind ya
That two is better than one
So please accept my apology cause I'm feeling
Like a branch without it's tree
It took me a fall to really see
That your the catch I wanna keep
'Cause I get weak thinking about you
Living without you life has no value
Baby come back to me
'Cause you're the only missing piece
'Cause the better half of me was you
I'm like the hive without it's bee without you
I gotta find ya, gotta remind ya
That two is better than one
Ooh it took a little earthquake
To appreciate the stability you've given me
So consistently
The better half of me was you
I'm like a bird without it's wings without you
I gotta find ya, gotta remind ya
That two is stronger than one
The better half of me, oh it's you
I'm like a heart without it's beat without you
I gotta find ya, gotta remind ya
I promise you that I'm gotta try to
That's more like it
That's more like it
That's more like it
When I wanted you, you did not reciprocate
When I needed you, you would always show up late
But things have changed, and I've got the upper hand
You can run and I've got you eating now of my hand
Chorus:
That's more like it, yeah
That's more like it
Make my dinner, bring it to me
That's more like it,
That's more like it
Yeah, that's more like it
Yeah, that's more like it
Yeah, it's about time
Get to work and give me money
That's more like it!
That's more like it!
When my birthday came, you would not remember it
When I got my period you were inconsiderate
But tables turn, and it's great to be on top
I've got you trained to appreciate the good that you've got
Chorus:
That's more like it, yeah
That's more like it
I say when and where it happens
That's more like it,
That's more like it
Yeah, that's more like it
Yeah, that's more like it
It's great to be the last one loving
That's more like it!
That's more like it!
That's more like it!
That's more like it!
I like chocolate, and I like Daisies
Maybe you're better right there, sit down!
I love cashmere, and I love diamonds
I'm ready for my massage right now!
Oh, right now!
Chorus:
That's more like it, yeah
That's more like it
Make my dinner, bring it to me
That's more like it,
That's more like it
Yeah, that's more like it
Yeah, that's more like it
Yeah, it's about time
Get to work and give me money
That's more like it!
You're such a poet
I wish I could be Wesley Willis
My words would flow like honey
Sweet and laid on thick
You're so edgy
You don't even need a rhyming dictionary
I wipe my hands on your jeans
Cause they are more distressed
So they say you've got OCD
And they claim you can barely read
But you say don't bother me with all of your reality
But it could be so simple
(you were thinking)
Life should be that simple
(Who would have thought it)
I wish it were just so simple
(don't know what you were thinking)
But the point's been missed
You've made a mess
Who would have guessed
That it's as simple as it seems
So what, you're a genius
But you've got a lot to learn
Like the time you lost your apartment
Cause you bought too much Vuitton
You park in a loading zone
You sleep with the lights all on
You cross your i's and dot your t's
All it goes to show
That it could be so simple
(you were thinking)
Life should be that simple
(Who would have thought it)
I wish it were just that simple
(don't know what you were thinking)
The point's been missed
We've made a mess
Who would have guessed
That it's as simple as it seems
I'm not saying that it's a piece of cake
Just take a moment to reevaluate
The possibilities
The situations
The opportunities
That are waiting
Oh, the possibilities
Oh, I
It could, it could be that simple
(you were thinking)
Life should be that simple
(Who would have thought it)
I wish it were just so simple
(don't know what you were thinking)
You're in a haze
It's just a phase
You know this maze
Is as simple as it seems
We could talk all day
About your eccentricities
What I mean to say
Oh, is that I need you listen please
And focus on life's simplicities
So don't be afraid to strip it away
Cause at the end of the day
It's still as simple as it seems
It is all so simple
Remember when I dove into the crowd
And I got a bloody knee under my skin
A mark from wiping out
It brings back the memories
Every bone's been broken
But my heart is still wide open
I can't stop, don't care if I lose
Baby, you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
I'm going down in flames for you
Baby, you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
One more thing I'm addicted to
With each scar there's a map
That tells a story, what a souvenir of
Young love's like jumping out an airplane
Riding a tidal wave on an ocean of emotion
My heart rips me wide open
I can't stop, don't care if I lose
Baby, you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
I'm going down in flames for you
Baby, you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
One more thing I'm addicted to
And I cover up these scars
We'll make it, we'll make it but we break it
And I can't stop seeing stars
Let's hope not die whenever you're around
Around
I can't stop, don't care if I lose
Baby, you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
I'm going down in flames for you
Oh, you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
One more thing I'm addicted to, oh
No, I can't stop
Oh, I can't stop
No, I can't stop
And I'm going out in flames
Oh, I'm going down in flames
Baby, you are the weapon I choose
Baby, you are the weapon I choose

Days like this I want to drive away
Pack my bags and watch your shadow fade
You chewed me up and spit me out
Like I was poison in your mouth
You took my light, you drained me down
That was then and this is now
Now look at me
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
Throw your sticks and stones
Throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
I just wanna throw my phone away
Find out who is really there for me
You ripped me off, your love was cheap
Was always tearing at the seams
I fell deep and you let me drown
But that was then and this is now
Now look at me
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
Throw your sticks and stones
Throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
Now look at me, I'm sparkling
A firework, a dancing flame
You won't ever put me out again
I'm glowing, oh woah oh
So you can keep the diamond ring
I never liked them anyway
In fact you can keep everything
Yeah, yeah
Except for me
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no (away from me)
Throw your sticks and stones
Throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me, no, (away from me)
This is the part of me, me, me, me, me, me, no
Throw your sticks and stones
Throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
[KeKe talking]
So you think you can just call me like this?
Naw. Not me.
Verse 1:
Oh really?
So you sitting at home, got bored and you called me up
You so silly, did you think that I'd be hangin round just waitin on you?
Pre-chorus 1:
But who are you kiddin?
Your girlfriend probably just dumped you.
So you went through your phone just to see who'd pick up
But it won't be me, no. (not gonna be the one you call)
Chorus:
Cause you missed out on a good one
Now you're feelin lonely (not gonna be the one you call)
I forgot all bout you, why you all on me? (Not gonna be the one you call)
You should really go back to her, cause right now you working my nerve
Cause I'm not gonna be, not, not gonna be the one you call
Verse 2:
So you don't listen?
Did you not get the hint, when I said I'm not interested
With me your times ran out
Don't you think you should give up now
Pre-chorus 2:
But who are you kiddin?
I know for a fact your girl dumped you
Heard you took it real hard
Kinda feel sorry for you
But it won't be me, sorry it won't be me (not gonna be the one you call)
Chorus:
Cause you missed out on a good one
Now you're feelin lonely (not gonna be the one you call)
I forgot all bout you, why you all on me? (Not gonna be the one you call)
You should really go back to her, cause right now you working my nerve
Cause I'm not gonna be, not, not gonna be the one you call
Bridge:
Now I know it's hard to get over a break up
But what gives you the right to think that I'm gonna wait up
Don't you see that you're playin yourself
Tryin to break a promise to somebody else
So when you're feelin lonely next time
Don't call me (not gonna be the one you call)
Chorus:
Cause you missed out on a good one
And now you're feelin lonely (not gonna be the one you call)
I forgot all bout you, why you all on me? (Not gonna be the one you call)
You should really go back to her, cause right now you working my nerve
Cause I'm not gonna be, not, not gonna be the one you call
I saw a spider, I didn't scream
'Cause I can belch the alphabet
Just double dog, dare me
And I chose guitar over ballet
And I'd take these suckers down
'Cause they just get in my way
The way you look at me
Is kind of like a little sister
Not like a good vice
And it leaves me nothing but blisters
So I don't wanna be one of the boys, one of your guys
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be one of the girls
Pretty in pearls, not one of the boys
So over the summer something changed
I started reading Seventeen and shaving my legs
And I studied Aveda religiously
And I walked right into school
And caught you staring at me
'Cause I know what you know
But now you're gonna have to take a number
It's okay, maybe one day
But not until you give me my diamond ring
'Cause I don't wanna be one of the boys, one of your guys
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be your homecoming queen
Pin-up poster dream, not one of the boys
I wanna be a flower, not a dirty ring
I wanna smell like roses, not a baseball team
And I swear maybe one day, you're gonna wanna
Make out, make out, make out with me
Don't wanna be, don't wanna be, don't wanna be
'Cause I don't wanna be one of the boys, one of your guys
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight
That I just wanna be one of the girls
Pretty in pearls, not one of the boys
The leaves were falling
I was seventeen
We'd been locking lips
Grabbing hips
Smoking cigarettes
We took a drive in your 1990
Had me down from out of town
I was California
Oh my legs were not shaved
And you had dirt between your fingers
They told us to behave
But hey
It's not like riding a bike
It's not like flying a kite
It's not as easy as pie
There's nothing like the first time
It's not like taking a bath
It's not like having a laugh
It's not like reading a map
There's nothing like the first time
I had seen it in the
Magazines
We would
Change the chanel
On the tv screen
Cuz it's such a sin
What ya did to me
Straight to hell it's what they sell
If you've done the deed
Oh but what could be so bad
Oh if everyone is guilty
I guess we want what we can't have
'Cause I've heard
It's not like riding a bike
It's not like flying a kite it's not as easy as pie
There's nothing like the first time
It's not like taking a bath
It's not like having a laugh
It's not like reading a map
There's nothing like the first time
Do you remember
Do you remember
Do you remember
Do you remember
La la la la la la
There's nothing like the first time
La la la la la la
There's nothing like the first time
It's not a walk in the park
It's not a shot in the dark
It's not a juvenile crime
There's nothing like the first time
It's not like tying the knot
There's no connecting the dots
And in case you forgot
There's nothing like the first time
Hey yeah yeah yeah
There's nothing like the first time
Oh oh ohhh
There's nothing like the first time
Hey ey ey
There's nothing like the first time
It's not like reading a map
Oh I can give you that
[Verse 1:]
So I ball so hard mothafuckas wanna fine me, first niggas gotta find me
What's 50 grand to a mothafucka like me, can you please remind me

(Ball so hard) Since we here, it's only right that we'd be fair
Psycho: I'm liable to go Michael, take your pick
Jackson, Tyson, Jordan, Game 6
(Ball so hard) Got a broken clock, Rolleys that don't tick tock
Audemars that's losing time, hidden behind all these big rocks
(Ball so hard) I'm shocked too, I'm supposed to be locked up too
If you escaped what I've escaped, you'd be in Paris getting fucked up too
(Ball so hard) Let's get faded, Le Meurice for like 6 days
Gold bottles, scold models, spillin' Ace on my sick J's
(Ball so hard) Bitch, behave, just might let you meet 'Ye
Chi town's D. Rose, I'm moving the Nets to BK
[Hook]
Ball so hard mothafuckas want to fine me
(That shit cray, that shit cray, that shit cray)
[Verse 2:]
She said, "'Ye can we get married at the mall?"
I said, "Look, you need to crawl 'fore you ball
Come and meet me in the bathroom stall
And show me why you deserve to have it all."
That shit cray, ain't it Jay? What she order, fish filet?
Your whip so cold--this old thing?
Act like you'll ever be around mothafuckas like this again
Bourgie girl, grab her hand, fuck that bitch she don't wanna dance
Excuse my French but I'm in France, I'm just sayin'
Prince Williams ain't do it right if you ask me
Cause I was him, I would have married Kate and Ashley
What's Gucci, my nigga? What's Louis, my killa?
What's drugs, my dealer? What's that jacket, Margiela?
Doctors say I'm the illest, cause I'm suffering from realness
Got my niggas in Paris and they going gorillas, huh
[Interlude]
I don't even know what that means
(No one knows what it means, but it's provocative)
No it's not, it's gross (Gets the people going)
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
You are now watching the throne, don't let me get in my zone
Don't let me get in my zone, don't let me get in my zone

(I got that hot bitch in my home) You know how many hot bitches I own
Don't let me get in my zone, don't let me get in my zone
Don't let me get in my zone, don't let me get in my zone
The stars is in the building, they hands is to the ceiling
I know I'm 'bout to kill it, how you know? I got that feeling
You are now watching the throne, don't let me into my zone
We can be mr. and mrs. smith tonight
You push me and I'll push you back, we'll start a fight.
We're speeding down the highway, without the lights.

We're reckless like a hurricane we're-we're taking over
Numb you like some novocain ''cause we taking over
Set it down with everything, like a super nova.

Wishing you were in the rain reading Hemingway

Secretly you you’re so amused
And nobody understands you

I’m so angry cuz you’d rather my space instead
I can’t believe I fell in love
With someone that wears more make up and

Just one touch, now baby I believe this is real
So take a chance and
Don't ever look back, don't ever look back
Imma get your heart racing in my skin tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Let you put your hands on me in my skin tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Yeah!
(Verse 2):
I know a place
Where the grass is really greener
Warm, wet and wild
There must be something in the water
You could travel the world
But nothing comes close to the golden coast
Once you party with us
You'll be falling in love
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
California girls, we're unforgettable
Daisy dukes, bikinis on top
Sun kissed skin, so hot, we'll melt your popsicle
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
California girls, we're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce, we got it on lock
West coast represent, now put your hands up
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
(Verse 3):
In another life
I would be your girl
We'd keep all our promises
Be us against the world
In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were
The one that got away, the one that got away
The o-o-o-o-o-o-o-one, the one (x3)
In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were
The one that got away
(Verse 4):
There's a stranger in my bed
There's a pounding in my head
Glitter all over the room
Pink flamingos in the pool
I smell like a mini bar
DJ's passed out in the yard
Barbies on the barbecue
This a hickie or a bruise?
Pictures of last night ended up online
I'm screwed, oh well
It's a blacktop blur
But I'm pretty sure it ruled
Last Friday night
Yeah we danced on table tops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed but I forgot
Last Friday night
Yeah we maxed our credit cards
And got kicked out of the bar
So we hit the boulevard
Last Friday night
We went streaking in the park
Skinny dipping in the dark
Then had a menage a trois
Last Friday night
Yeah I think we broke the law
Always say we're gonna stop, oh whoa oh
This Friday night, do it all again
T.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F.
T.G.I.F
T.G.I.F.
(Verse 5):
You're so hypnotizing
Could you be the devil
Could you be an angel
Your touch magnetizing
Feels like I am floating
Leaves my body glowing
They say be afraid
You're not like the others
Futuristic lover
Different DNA
They don't understand you
You're from a whole nother world
A different dimension
You've opened my eyes
Now I'm ready to go
Lead me into the light
Kiss me, k-k-kiss me
Infect me with your lovin
Fill me with your poison
Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be your victim
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural, extraterrestrial
(Verse 6):
Do you ever feel
Like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind
Wanting to start again
Do you ever feel
Feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards
One blow from caving in
Do you ever feel
Already buried deep
Six feet under screams
But no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
Cause there's a spark in you
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the 4th of July
Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show em what you're worth
Make em go oh oh oh
When you shoot across the sky-y-y
Boom boom boom even brighter than the moon moon moon
The owl and the pussy cat went to sea in a beautiful
Pea green boat they took some honey and plenty of money
Wrapped up in a five pound note.
The owl looked up to the stars above,
And sang from a small guitar,
Oh lovely pussy oh pussy my love,
What a beautiful pussy you are you are what a beautiful
Pussy you are. so they sailed away for a year and a
Day to the land where the palm trees grow,
And there in a wood a piggy wig stood with a ring on
The end of his nose his nose a ring on the end of his
Nose. dear pig are you willing to sell for one shilling
Your ring? said the piggy I will.
So they took it away and were married nest day by the
Turkey who lived on the hill.
The dined on mince and slices of quince which they
Ate with an runcible spoon and hand in hand by the
Edge of the sand they dance in the light of the moon
Through this skin you see my heart
Through this laughter You feel my pain
Even through this mask You see my face
For you are the only one who really knows just who I am
And You search me
And You know all the secrets of my heart
Revealing the mysteries of who You are
You search me
Growing up never comes easily
In Your hands, You're the potter molding me
Then why do I wear this mask and play this game of hide and seek
When You are the only one who really knows just who I am
My Father, my Father
You are my Father, oh, and
I am Your child
And You hear my cry
Twelve noon
Watch her sleeping in your room
Why can't that still be me
Two o'clock and I'm still driving round your block
Feeling a little
Crazy
You'd change your number and move to the suburbs
You run but you can't hide
You thought I'd forget all of your passwords
But I like showing up at your place
So surprising is that look on your face
I am underneath your street light
Blowing kissing every night
Psycho love forever
I'm right outside your window
Throwing rocks and starting fights
Psycho love forever
So weeks pass and I found myself another guy
Someone who loves me equally, yeah
The tables turn and you're not happy
When you learn he's moving in with me
He bought me a big ring we moved to the city
Now you won't stop calling
'Cause you always thought that you'd have your plan B
Now your showing
Up at my place
Not surprising
We both play this game
You're underneath my street light
Blowing kisses every night
Psycho love forever
You're right outside my window
Throwing rocks and starting fights
Psycho love forever
La la la la
La la la la
Forever
La la la la
La la la la
You'd change your number and move to the suburbs
You run but you can't hide
You thought I'd forget all of your passwords
But I like showing up at your place
So surprising that look on your face
I am underneath your street light
Blowing kissing every night
Psycho love forever
I'm right outside your window
Throwing rocks and starting fights
Psycho love forever
I am underneath your street light
Blowing kissing every night
Psycho love forever
I'm right outside your window
Throwing rocks and starting fights
He put it on me, I put it on
Like there was nothin' wrong
It didn't fit, it wasn't right
Wasn't just the size
They say you know when you know
I don't know
I didn't feel
The fairy tale feeling, no
Am I a stupid girl
For even dreaming that I could?
If it's not like the movies
That's how it should be
When he's the one, I'll come undone
And my world will stop spinning
And that's just the beginning
Snow White said when I was young
One day, my prince will come so I'll wait for that date
They say it's hard to meet your match
Gotta find my better half so we make perfect shapes
If stars don't align, if it doesn't stop time
If you can't see the sign, wait for it
One-hundred percent, worth every penny you spend
He'll be the one that finishes your sentences
If it's not like the movies
That's how it should be, yeah
When he's the one, I'll come undone
And my world will stop spinning
And that's just the beginning
'Cause I know you're out there
And you're, you're lookin' for me
It's a crazy idea that
You were made perfectly for me, you see
Just like the movies
That's how it will be
Cinematic and dramatic
With the perfect ending
It's not like the movies
But that's how it should be
When he's the one, you'll come undone
And your world will stop spinning

Last Friday night I was shocked
I thought the world revolved around me
Every time we are together
But I'm still looking forward
To a guy with more potential
Just admit we're together
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
I feel like you're crazy
But I'm still looking for love
You think that I'm crazy
But I'm still looking for love
Hey, we went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
I remember what happened on our date
Come on, come on, baby, you know what to say
Come on, girl, give me one more chance
One more chance at true romance
Come on, tell me how you feel
Come on, baby, come on, baby, let me heal
Just don't know what we should do
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, you
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
We went out last Friday night
If you want me, a cherry on top
The pick of the pack, the crème de la crop
If you want me you better
Do better than that tonight, oh, oh
If you want me, it takes more than a wink
And more than a drink, more than you think
If you want me you're gonna
Have to break the bank tonight
'Cause some don't have the patience
Some call me high-maintenance
But you pay the bill, 'cause that's the deal
If you wanna ride, just name your price
And don't play cheap with your heart
Don't make a bet if you can't write the check for me, for me
'Cause I can be bought but you'll pay the cost
If you can afford me
If you want me, I'm not a piece of ass
A one night stand, a storage shed
I think you better walk by tonight
Oh no
If you want me, then stop begging
I don't put out for charity
If you want me there's no
Discount price tonight
Cause bunnys eyes glow red
But I don't need your dollar bills
I just want something real
'Cause nothing's free, except a loving me
If you wanna ride, just name your price
And don't play cheap with your heart
Don't make a bet if you can't write the check for me, for me
'Cause I can be bought but you'll pay the cost
If you can afford me
If you want me, a cherry on top
The pick of the pack, the crème de la crop
If you wanna ride, just name your price
And don't play cheap with your heart
Don't make a bet if you can't write the check for me, for me
'Cause I can be bought but you'll pay the cost
If you can afford me
If you wanna ride, just name your price
And don't play cheap with your heart
Don't make a bet if you can't write the check for me, for me
'Cause I can be bought but you'll pay the cost
This was never the way I planned, not my intention
I got so brave, drink in hand, lost my discretion
It's not what I'm used to, just wanna try you on
I'm curious for you caught my attention
I kissed a girl and I liked it, the taste of her cherry chapstick
I kissed a girl just to try it, I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong, it felt so right, don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it, I liked it
No, I don't even know your name, it doesn't matter
You're my experimental game, just human nature
It's not what good girls do, not how they should behave
My head gets so confused, hard to obey
I kissed a girl and I liked it, the taste of her cherry chapstick
I kissed a girl just to try it, I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong, it felt so right, don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it, I liked it
Us girls we are so magical, soft skin, red lips, so kissable
Hard to resist, so touchable, too good to deny it
It ain't no big deal, it's innocent
I kissed a girl and I liked it, the taste of her cherry chapstick
I kissed a girl just to try it, I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong, it felt so right, don't mean I'm in love tonight
I used to know you when we were young
You were in all my dreams
We sat together in period one
Fridays at 8:15
Now I see face in the strangest places
Movies and magazines
I saw you talkin' to Christopher Walken
On my TV screen
I will wait for you
As long as I need to
And if you ever get back to Hackensack
I'll be here for you
I used to work in a record store
Now I work for my dad
Scraping the paint off of hard wood floors
The hours are pretty bad
Sometimes I wonder where you are
Probably in L.A.
That seems to be where everybody else ends up these days
I will wait for you
As long as I need to
And if you ever get back to Hackensack
I'll be here for you
I will wait for you
As long as I need to
And if you ever get back to Hackensack
I'll be here for you
If you ever get back to Hackensack
I Know About Greenselves, And Know It Right Here. (Right Here)
And I Know That Is A Gatorader.
And See AN DAY!
They had contest (alternate)
(Jay Sean) I Know This And...
(Jay-Z) No Fees...

Love leads to laughter
Love leads to pain
With you by my side
I feel good times again
Never have I felt these feelings before
You showed me the world
How could I ask for more
And although there's confusion
We'll find a solution to keep my heart close to you
And I know, yes I know
If you hold me, believe me
I'll never, never ever leave
And I know
There is nothing that I would not do for you
Forever be true
And I know
Although times can be hard
We will see it through
I'm forever in love with you
Show me affection
In all different ways
Give you my heart
For the rest of my days
With you all my troubles are left far behind
Like heaven on earth
When I look in your eyes
And although there's confusion
We'll find a solution
To keep my heart close to you
And I know, yes I know
If you hold me, believe me
I'll never, never ever leave
And I know
There is nothing that I would not do for you
Forever be true
And I know
Although times can be hard
We will see it through
I'm forever in love with you
No need to cry
I'll be right by your side
(Right by your side)
Let's take our time
Love won't run dry
If you hold me, believe me
I'll never, never ever leave
And I know
There is nothing that I would not do for you
Forever be true
And I know
Although times can be hard
We will see it through
I'm forever in love
And I know
There is nothing that I would not do for you
Forever be true
And I know
Oh I know
Although times can be hard
We will see it through
All along the western front
People line up to receive
She got the current in her hand
To shock you like you won't believe
Saw her in the Amazon
With the voltage running throughout her skin
Standing there with nothing on
She's gonna teach me how to swim
Oh, ooh, ooh
Said, "Ooh, ooh girl shock me like an electric eel
Baby girl turn me on with your electric feel"
Said, "Ooh, girl ooh, shock me like an electric eel
Baby girl turn me on with your electric feel"
All along the eastern shore
Put your circuits in the sea
This is what the world is for
Making electricity
Cause you can feel it in your mind
Oh you can do it all the time
Plug it in and change the world
Yes, you are my electric girl
I said, "Ooh, ooh girl shock me like an electric eel
Baby girl turn me on with your electric feel"
Said, "Ooh, girl ooh, shock me like an electric eel
Baby girl turn me on with your electric feel"
Oh, oh yea
Hey, hey
Do what ya feel now
Electric feel now
Do what ya feel now
There is a girl in high school
She thinks she's more better than me
I'll show her what she's made of
She'll be so under my knee
I'll show her how I'm like
She's just a cheerleader
She's a girl I never trust
A mean cheerleader
I never thought I'd be a bust
Just a cheerleader
I never wanna be this way
A mean cheerleader
I never thought I'd see this day
Cheerleader
I'm just a regular teenage girl
Not to be crazy or anything
I'm hurrying to her
Who am I to ring
I'll show her how I'm like
She's just a cheerleader
She's a girl I never trust
A mean cheerleader
I never thought I'd be a bust
Just a cheerleader
I never wanna be this way
A mean cheerleader
I never thought I'd see this day
Cheerleader
I'll show her how I'm like
She's just a cheerleader
She's a girl I never trust
A mean cheerleader
I never thought I'd be a bust
Just a cheerleader
I never wanna be this way
A mean cheerleader
I never thought I'd see this day
Cheerleader
Cheerleader
The weight of my words
Are like feathers from a bird
My mouth, it moves but you wont hear a thing
Cause Ive dug myself deep
I managed to fit both my hands and feet
All my little white lies
Smell like a big old bucket of bleach
In one ear
And out your other
So lock and key
You wont open up for me
So brick by brick
I am breaking through these walls
Oh between you and me
I'm not giving up
I'm not giving giving up
On us
And it feels like you're in China
And I am in Peru
When ever I am sleeping next to you
We can hear the crickets singing
Oh all throughout the night
OH boy can we just get used
To something so right?
And sure I confess
I'm a mess
I'm a mess of mistakes
But please count to ten
Before you go and throw it all away
So brick by brick
I am breaking through these walls
Oh between you and me
I'm not giving up
I'm not giving giving up
On on on us
Cause if you give up
Then what am I supposed to do
All these dreams
Never will come true
Without you
Vocal ad lib
Brick by brick
I am breaking through these walls
Oh between you and me
I'm not giving up
I'm not giving giving up
Oh baby don't give up
On this love
Don't give up
I feel like
I've been watching
The stars as
They collide
The past
It haunts me
Yeah
it kills me
Every single time
And now
My mind
Is racing
My heart
Pounds in my chest
i know
i have to let you go
But I just can't forget
i'm so in love
But I found your lies
Tell me
i'm having
Just a
bad dream
tonight
Come wake me up
Tell me love
That it's all alright
Tell me
I'm having
Just a
Bad dream
Tonight
(Bad dream tonight)
Come wake me up
Come wake me up
Come wake me up
Come wake me up
Come wake me up
I wish
I never knew
What
I somehow
Figured out
Lie and tell me
You don't know
What I'm talking about
How do I recover
From these pictures
In my head?
You were the love
Of my life
I sure hope
Comparisons are easily done
Once you've had a taste of perfection
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one, I still got the seed
You said move on, where do I go?
I guess second best is all I will know
'Cause when I'm with him I am thinking of you
(Thinking of you, thinking of you)
Thinking of you, what you would do
If you were the one who was spending the night
(Spending the night, spending the night)
Oh, I wish that I was looking into your eyes
You're like an Indian Summer in the middle of winter
Like a hard candy with a surprise center
How do I get better once I've had the best?
You said there's tons of fish in the water, so the waters I will test
He kissed my lips, I taste your mouth, oh!
(Taste your mouth)
He pulled me in, I was disgusted with myself
'Cause when I'm with him I am thinking of you
(Thinking of you, thinking of you)
Thinking of you, what you would do
If you were the one who was spending the night
(Spending the night, spending the night)
Oh, I wish that I was looking into
You're the best, and yes, I do regret
How I could let myself let you go
Now, now the lesson's learned
I touched it, I was burned
Oh, I think you should know!
'Cause when I'm with him I am thinking of you
(Thinking of you, thinking of you)
Thinking of you, what you would do
If you were the one who was spending the night
(Spending the night, spending the night)
Oh, I wish that I was looking into your, your eyes
Looking into your eyes, looking into your eyes
Oh, won't you walk through?
And bust in the door and take me away?
Oh, no more mistakes
I'm used to opening my own doors and splitting the checks
He introduced me, was always just a friend
I bought a new dress, he never noticed
Always falling for these bad boys, such a challenge
I'm getting tired of cleaning up after them
I think I'm ready to be a woman
Oh love, I think I'm ready, ready for it
You were such a surprise, an unexpected gift
Said I was pretty and I believed it
Not really used to all this attention
Told myself I don't deserve you and this is just a phase
Could I get used to being loved the right way?
I wanna argue but there is nothing to say
Oh love, I think I'm ready, ready for it
Ready for it
Oh love, I think I'm ready
?Cause you send me flowers when there's no occasion
Yeah, we talk for hours, you still wanna listen
Won't hold it against me if I just need you to hold me tonight
My mother always told me that you'd show up one day
So scared to feel this way
But love, I think I'm ready, ready for it
Ready for it
Oh love, I think I'm ready, ready for it
Ready for it
There's a stranger in my bed
There's a pounding in my head
Glitter all over the room
Pink flamingos in the pool
I smell like a minibar
DJ's passed out in the yard
Barbies on the barbecue
Is this a hickey or a bruise?
Pictures of last night
Ended up online
I'm screwed
Oh well
It's a blacked out blur
But I'm pretty sure
It ruled
Damn
Last Friday night
Yeah we danced on tabletops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed but I forgot
Last Friday night
Yeah we maxed our credit cards
And got kicked out of the bar
So we hit the boulevard
Last Friday night
We went streaking in the park
Skinny dipping in the dark
Then had a ménage à trois
Last Friday night
Yeah I think we broke the law
Always say we're gonna sto-op whoa
This Friday night
Do it all again
This Friday night
Do it all again
Trying to connect the dots
Don't know what to tell my boss
Think the city towed my car
Chandelier is on the floor
Ripped my favorite party dress
Warrant's out for my arrest
Think I need a ginger ale
That was such an epic fail
Pictures of last night
Ended up online
I'm screwed
Oh well
It's a blacked out blur
But I'm pretty sure
It ruled

Last Friday night

Always say we're gonna sto-op whoa
This Friday night
Do it all again
Yeah eh yeah yeah
I can feel a phoenix inside of me
As I march alone to a different beat
Slowly swallowing down my fear, yeah yeah
I am ready for the road less traveled
Suiting up for my crowning battle
This test is my own cross to bare
But I will get there
It's never easy to be chosen, never easy to be called
Standing on the frontline when the box starts to fall
I can see the heavens but I still hear the flames
Calling out my name
I can see the writing on the wall
I can't ignore this war
At the eh-end of it all
Who am I living for?
I can feel this lightness inside of me
Growing fast into a bolt of lightning
I know one spark will shock the world, yeah yeah
So I pray for a favour like Esther
I need your strength to handle the pressure
I know there will be sacrifice
But that's the price
It's never easy to be chosen, never easy to be called
Standing on the frontline when the bomb starts to fall
I can see the heavens but I still hear the flames
Calling out my name
I can see the writing on the wall
I can't ignore this war
At the eh-end of it all
Who am I living for?
I can see the writing on the wall
I can't ignore this war
At the eh-end of it all
Who am I living for?
At the end, at the end
Who am I living for?
At the end, at the end
Who am I living for?
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
Don't let the greatness get you down
Heavy is the head that wears the crown
Don't let the greatness get you down, oh, oh yeah
I can see the writing on the wall
I can't ignore this war
At the eh-end of it all
Who am I living for?
I can see the writing on the wall
I can't ignore this war
At the eh-end of it all
Who am I living for?
At the end, at the end
Who am I living for?
At the end, at the end
Who am I living for?
You think I'm pretty without any make-up on
You think I'm funny when I tell the punch line wrong
I know you get me, so I let my walls come down, down
Before you met me, I was a wreck
But things were kinda heavy, you brought me to life
Now every February you'll be my valentine, valentine
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I, we'll be young forever
You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on, I can't sleep
Let's runaway and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My heart stops when you look at me
Just one touch, now baby I believe
This is real, so take a chance
And don't ever look back, don't ever look back
We drove to Cali and got drunk on the beach
Got a motel and built a floor out of sheets
I finally found you, my missing puzzle piece
I'm complete
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets, just love
We can dance until we die
You and I, we'll be young forever
You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on, I can't sleep
Let's runaway and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My heart stops when you look at me
Just one touch, now baby I believe
This is real, so take a chance
And don't ever look back, don't ever look back
I'ma get your heart racing in my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Let you put your hands on me in my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on, I can't sleep
Let's runaway and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My heart stops when you look at me
Just one touch, now baby I believe
This is real, so take a chance
And don't ever look back, don't ever look back
I'ma get your heart racing in my skin-tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Let you put your hands on me in my skin-tight jeans
She is a pyramid
But with him she's just a grain of sand
This love's too strong like my cement
Squeezing out the life that should be let in
She was a hurricane
But now she's just a gust of wind
She used to set the sails of a thousand ships
Was a force to be reckoned with
She could be a Statue of Liberty
She could be a Joan of Arc
But he's scared of the light that's inside of her
So he keeps her in the dark
Oh, she used to be a pearl, oh
Yeah, she used to rule the world, oh
Can't believe, she's become a shell of herself
'Cause she used to be a pearl
She was unstoppable
Move fast just like an avalanche
But now she's stuck deep in cement
Wishing that they never ever met
She could be a Statue of Liberty
She could be a Joan of Arc
But he's scared of the light that's inside of her
So he keeps her in the dark
Oh, she used to be a pearl, oh
Yeah, she used to rule the world, oh
Can't believe, she's become, a shell of herself
'Cause she used to be a
Do you know that there's a way out
There's a way out, there's a way out, there's a way out
You don't have to be held down
Be held down, be held down, be held down
'Cause I used to be a shell
Yeah, I let him rule my world, my world, oh yeah
But I will come and grow strong
And I can still go on, and no one can take my pearl
You don't have to be a shell, no
You're the one that rules your world, oh
You are strong and you'll learn that you can still go on
And you'll always be a, a pearl

You make me feel like I'm losing my virginity
The first time, every time when you touch me
I make you bloom like a flower that you never seen
Under the sun we are one buzzing energy
Let's pollinate to create a family tree
This evolution with you comes naturally
Some call it science, we call it chemistry
This is the story of the birds and the bees
Even the seasons change
Our love still stays the same
You give me the hummingbird heartbeat
Spread my wings and make me fly
The taste of your honey is so sweet
When you give me the hummingbird heartbeat
Hummingbird heartbeat
Oh, oh, hummingbird heartbeat
Oh, oh, hummingbird heartbeat
I've flown a million miles just to find a magic seed
A white flower with the power to bring life to me
You're so exotic, my whole body fluttering
Constantly craving for a taste of your sticky sweet
I was on the brink of a heart attack
You gave me life and keep me coming back
I see the sun rise in your eyes, your eyes
We've got a future full of blue skies, blue skies
Even the seasons change
Our love still stays the same
You give me the hummingbird heartbeat
Spread my wings and make me fly
The taste of your honey is so sweet
When you give me the hummingbird heartbeat
Hummingbird heartbeat
Oh, oh, hummingbird heartbeat
Oh, oh, hummingbird heartbeat
You love me, you love me
Never love me not, not, oh no
When we hear a perfect harmony
You make me sound like, like a symphony, oh
Spread my wings and make me fly
The taste of your honey is so sweet
When you give me the hummingbird heartbeat
Hummingbird heartbeat
You give me the hummingbird heartbeat
Spread my wings and make me fly
The taste of your honey is so sweet
When you give me the hummingbird heartbeat
Hummingbird heartbeat
Oh, oh, hummingbird heartbeat, hey, yeah
Oh, oh, hummingbird heartbeat, hey, yeah
Oh, oh, hummingbird heartbeat
Voted most likely to end up
On the back of a milk box drink
Looks like I'm letting 'em down
'Cause seven, seventy-five isn't worth
An hour of my hard work and time
When you can't afford half the shit they advertise
Oh, I'm worth more then they ask
More than the toe-tag generation full of regret
Oh, I won't settle no, oh, I can't settle
I wanna break the mold
I wanna break the stereotype
Fist in the air
I'm not going down without a fight
It's my life and I'm not sitting
On the sidelines watching
It pass me by, I'm leaving you my legacy
I gotta make my mark, I gotta run it hard
I want you to remember me
I'm leaving my fingerprints
I'm leaving my fingerprints
I'm leaving my fingerprints on you
Representing you and me
Don't you wanna go down in history?
Rather then end up begging on the streets
Trading under table favors for a place to sleep
'Cause I'm worth more than this
So stop writing prescriptions for my Ritalin
I can't focus my attention
I wanna break the mold
I wanna break the stereotype
Fist in the air
I'm not going down without a fight
It's my life and I'm sitting
On the sidelines watching
It pass me by, I'm leaving you my legacy
I gotta make my mark, I gotta run it hard
I want you to remember me
I'm leaving my fingerprints
I'm leaving my fingerprints
Don't give up, don't give in
Build your house on the rock
Oh, not in the sand, in the sand
In the sand, in the sand
It's my life and I'm not sitting
On the sidelines watching
It pass me by, I'm leaving you my legacy
I, I gotta make my mark, I gotta run it hard
I want you to remember me
It's my life and I'm not sitting
On the sidelines watching
It pass me by, I'm leaving you my legacy
I, I gotta make my mark, I gotta run it hard
I want you to remember me
'Cause I'm leaving my fingerprints
I'm leaving my fingerprints
I'm leaving my fingerprints in the end
You're so hypnotizing
Could you be the devil? Could you be an angel?
Your touch magnetizing
Feels like I am floating, leaves my body glowing
They say be afraid
You're not like the others, futuristic lover
Different DNA
They don't understand you
You're from a whole other world
A different dimension
You open my eyes
And I'm ready to go, lead me into the light
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison
Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial
You're so supersonic
Wanna feel your powers, stun me with your lasers
Your kiss is cosmic
Every move is magic
You're from a whole other world
A different dimension
You open my eyes
And I'm ready to go, lead me into the light
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison
Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial
This is transcendental
On another level
Boy, you're my lucky star
I wanna walk on your wavelength
And be there when you vibrate
For you I'll risk it all
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison
Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial, extraterrestrial, extraterrestrial
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
I've got people to see, places to go
Deadlines to meet, a reputation to uphold
It's like a ton of bricks breaking on my back
It's like the force of gravity in full effect
I got money to burn and I'm on the sake
They bet their bomb on me 'cause I'm their ace of spades
I feel the walls getting closer
I'm like a bomb with all red wires
All this pressure, all this pressure
Maybe it means I'm gonna be
All this pressure, all this pressure
Maybe this means I'm gonna be
A diamond, it won't ever bend
A diamond, 'cause they're ladies, best friends
A diamond, but there, there has to be more
Than what these pirates are gambling for
If not for the push I'd probably be a pebble
If not for the pressure I'd be forgotten forever
Just another stone skipped upon the water
Drowning fast before the other failures
I don't wanna be a distant memory on your wall
Just another CD that you burned and never bought
Am I not worth it to you after all that drama
That we've been though?
All this pressure, all this pressure
Maybe it means I'm gonna be
All this pressure, all this pressure
Maybe this means I'm gonna be
A diamond, it won't ever bend
A diamond, 'cause they're ladies, best friends
A diamond, but there, there has to be more
Than what these pirates are gambling for
Ooh ooh, diamond
I've gotta be a diamond
(I'm a diamond in the sky)
(With you standing by)
(Now catch me if I fall)
Oh, oh, oh, yeah yeah yeah
All this pressure, all this pressure
Oh, I've gotta be, oh, I've gotta be
All this pressure, all this pressure
Oh, I've gotta be, oh, I've gotta be
I'm a diamond in the sky
With you standing by
Now catch me if I fall
Into the arms of a coma
All this pressure, I've got pressure
I'm gonna be a diamond, baby, I've gotta be a diamond
I was living in a small mind
With no lifeline
And no messages can reach me from the outside
When I looked out over the horizon
Didn't notice the sun was setting or just rising
Then it hit me
Maybe bit me
Then I knew, quite a few would not go with me
I didn't know exactly where I would be going
But I had to let this river in me flowing
What a ride
When you open your eyes
For the very first time
A real surprise
I started living outside of the box
Crossing over lines where I always used to stop
Living outside of the box
'Cause I'm not gonna be anybody that I'm not
I always knew this day would come
When I got off my back, found some motivation
I've been living on the other side
Come hell or high water every moment I'm alive
I was living on a fault line
The fault was all mine
And this unstable ground found me down half the time
But I had enough
I had to get up
I had to shrug it all off 'cause it's the same old stuff
Then it hit me
You won't permit me
To be an individual
Just doesn't fit me
But I decided that it's going to be living
Yeah, I decided I'm escaping from your prison
What a high
When you open your mind for the very first time
A real surprise
I started living outside of the box
Crossing over lines where I always used to stop
Living outside of the box
'Cause I'm not gonna be anybody that I'm not
I always knew this day would come
When I got off my back, found some motivation
I've been living on the other side
Come hell or high water every moment I'm alive
So long conformity
And ambiguality is a new priority
All it takes, for heaven sakes
Is to figure out the face and learn to seperate
I started living outside for the box
Taking my time when I always used to rush
Living outside of the box
'Cause I'm not gonna be anybody that I'm not
I always knew this day would come
When I broke down the walls for my liberation
I've been living on the other side
Come hell or high water every moment I'm alive
Oh, living outside of the box
Oh, living outside of the box
Oh, living outside
Ha ha ha
I always knew this day would come
When I got off my back, found some motivation
Oh, living outside of the box
Of the box, of your life
Of everything that seems that nice
Featuring: Snoop Dogg
Greetings loved ones
Let's take a journey
I know a place
Where the grass is really greener
Warm, wet, and wild
There must be somethin' in the water
Sippin' gin and juice
Layin' underneath the palm trees
(Undone)
The boys break their necks
Tryin' to creep a little sneak peek
(At us)
You could travel the world
But nothing comes close to the golden coast
Once you party with us
You'll be fallin' in love
California girls, we're unforgettable
Daisy dukes, bikinis on top
Sun-kissed skin, so hot
We'll melt your popsicle
California girls, we're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce, we got it one lock
West-coast represent
Now put your hands up
Sex on the beach
We've got white sand in our stilettos
We freak in my jeep
Snoop Doggy Dogg on the stereo
You could travel the world
But nothing comes close to the golden coast
Once you party with us
You'll be fallin' in love
California girls, we're unforgettable
Daisy dukes, bikinis on top
Sun-kissed skin, so hot
We'll melt your popsicle
California girls, we're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce, we got it one lock
West-coast represent
Now put your hands up
Toned, tanned, fit, and ready
Turn it up 'cause it's gettin' heavy
Wild, wild west-coast
These are the girls I love the most
I mean the ones, I mean like she's the one
Kiss her, touch her, squeeze her buns
The girl's a freak, she drive a Jeep
And live on the Beach
I'm okay, I won't play, I love the bay
Just like I love L.A.
Venice Beach and Palm Springs
Summertime is everyday
Homeboys bangin' out
All that ass hangin' out
Bikinis, zuchinis, martinis, no weenies
Just a king and a queenie
Katy, my lady?
(Yeah?)
Looky here, baby
(Uh-huh)
I'm all up on ya
'Cause your represtin' California
California girls, we're unforgettable
Daisy dukes, bikinis on top
Sun-kissed skin, so hot
We'll melt your popsicle
California girls, we're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce, we got it one lock
West-coast represent
Now put your hands up
California, California girls
(California girls, man)
California, California girls

Katy Perry interview on The Project (2012) - Katy Perry: Part of Me
- Order: Reorder
- Duration: 13:06
- Updated: 13 Jan 2013
Katy Perry interview on The Project (Australia) - theprojecttv.com.au Broadcast date 29 June 2012. Produced by Roving Enterprises. Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson (born October 25, 1984), known by her stage name Katy Perry, is an American singer, songwriter and actress. Perry grew up with gospel music, and during her first year of high school she pursued a music career as Katy Hudson, releasing her first studio album called Katy Hudson which failed to chart. She recorded a solo album later, which was never released. After signing with Capitol Music Group in 2007, her fourth record label in seven years, she adopted the stage name Katy Perry. She first gained recognition with the release of her first mainstream album, One of the Boys in 2008, which spawned three Billboard Hot 100 top-ten songs—"I Kissed A Girl", "Hot n Cold" and "Waking Up In Vegas". Perry supported the album with her Hello Katy Tour. In 2010, her third studio album, Teenage Dream (2010), which topped the Billboard 200 chart, and spawned five number one singles—"California Gurls", "Teenage Dream", "Firework", "ET" and "Last Friday Night (TGIF)"—Teenage Dream was the only album (after Michael Jackson's Bad)—to do so, and the first female in history to achieve this milestone.

By donating at cc.com you could help create many more quality schools, programs and services that are so desperately needed by the growing autism population. Jodi was lucky enough to get into one of the few schools available to help her reach her potential. Please help us give many more kids and adults with autism the same chance Jodi got. Katy Perry and Jodi DiPiazza sang "Firework" at the Beacon Theater in New York on Oct 13. "Night of Too Many Stars: America Comes Together for Autism Programs" is hosted by Jon Stewart and raises money with NYCA (New York Collaborates for Autism) to support and create autism programs, schools, and services all over the country. Programs covering everything from the intensive education kids with autism need at a young age to social training for adults who want to contribute in the workplace. We've even created a "Teach the Teachers" program that helps train more teachers to work in the public school systems, for the many kids with autism who can't get into the few quality schools that can help them. 1 in 88 kids are now diagnosed on the Autistic spectrum. Many great organizations support research to unravel the mystery behind this condition. Night of Too Many Stars is working to help people who live with autism now. Our deepest thanks to Comedy Central and to the incredible performers who supported this cause at "Night of Too Many Stars," including Bill Burr, Hannibal Burress, Louis CK, Stephen Colbert, Tina Fey, Carly Rae Jepsen, Harvey ...

Rosie O'Donnell (Beautiful Girls, Harriet The Spy) stars with Denis Leary (Wag The Dog, Small Soldiers) and Dana Delany (Fly Away Home, Tombstone) in this feel-good comedy about the laughter, excitement and fun that come with being a kid! Joshua is a thoughtful 10 year-old looking for some simple answers to life's eternal questions. The problem is that no one including his concerned parents (Leary, Delany) and his colorful 5th-grade teacher (O'Donnell) seems to be making any sense! Therefore, Joshua makes it his personal mission to unravel the mysteries himself...and in the process reminds everyone what it's like to wake up to the world for the very first time! With great performances from an incredible cast you'll love all the comedy and adventure in this altogether unforgettable motion picture! Miramax 2012

Katy Perry, pseudonimo di Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson (Santa Barbara, 25 ottobre 1984), è una cantautrice e attrice statunitense. Cresciuta in una famiglia cristiana, inizia a cantare da ragazza nel coro della chiesa locale; dopo essersi diplomata al liceo, inizia la propria carriera discografica nel 2001 con un'etichetta di musica cristiana, incidendo col nome di Katy Hudson un album eponimo, di scarso successo. Fra il 2004 e il 2005 lavorò a un secondo album (con il team di produttori The Matrix), che però non venne mai pubblicato.
Nel 2007, dopo aver firmato un contratto discografico con l'etichetta discografica Capitol Records (la quarta in sette anni), pubblica il suo primo disco con lo pseudonimo di Katy Perry, l'EP Ur So Gay, che attira l'attenzione dei media ma senza posizionarsi nelle classifiche di vendita. Raggiunge il successo mondiale con il suo singolo di debutto, I Kissed a Girl, nel 2008. L'album di debutto di Perry, intitolato One of the Boys, viene pubblicato nel giugno dello stesso anno e diventa il trentatreesimo album più venduto a livello mondiale nel 2008. È stato certificato disco di platino negli Stati Uniti per aver venduto oltre un milione di copie. I Kissed a Girl è stata seguita dai singoli Hot n Cold, Thinking of You e Waking Up in Vegas.
Il suo secondo album, Teenage Dream, esce nell'agosto 2010 e raggiunge la vetta della classifica statunitense. Dall'album vengono estratti sei singoli: California Gurls, Teenage Dream, Firework, E.T., Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) e The One That Got Away. I primi cinque riescono a raggiungere la vetta della classifica dei singoli statunitense, facendo guadagnare alla cantante il record per il più grande numero di singoli al numero uno negli Stati Uniti estratti da uno stesso album, che condivide con Michael Jackson. L'album viene ristampato nella primavera del 2012 con tre canzoni inedite, fra cui la numero uno Part of Me e Wide Awake. Katy Perry è inoltre l'artista ad avere il maggior numero di settimane consecutive nella top ten della classifica dei singoli statunitensi: tra maggio 2010 e settembre 2011 vi rimane per ben 69 settimane con cinque singoli diversi. Oltre alla propria attività di cantante, è stata giudice ospite della settima edizione del programma britannico The X Factor, ha creato due profumi (Purr e Meow) ed è stata doppiatrice di Puffetta nel film I Puffi. Il suo vero e proprio debutto cinematografico avviene nell'estate del 2012 con il film Katy Perry: Part of Me. Katy Perry ha avuto una lunga relazione con il cantante Travie McCoy; è stata poi sposata con l'attore inglese Russell Brand dal 23 ottobre 2010 al 30 dicembre 2011.

[modifica] Biografia
Katy Perry nasce con il nome di Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson a Santa Barbara, in California,[2] da Keith e Mary Hudson (nata Perry), due predicatori californiani. Ha origini tedesche, portoghesi, irlandesi e inglesi.[3][4] ed è la secondogenita di tre fratelli; gli zii materni sono la sceneggiatrice Eleanor Perry e il regista Frank Perry.[5]
Perry viene sin da bambina coinvolta nell'attività religiosa dei genitori[5] cantando nella chiesa locale dall'età di nove anni fino a diciassette.[6] Cresce ascoltando musica gospel,[7] dato che sua madre non le permetteva di ascoltare quella che lei chiamava "musica profana",[6][8] e frequentando scuole e campeggi cristiani.[5] Da piccola, impara a ballare in una sala di ricreazione a Santa Barbara. Ha come maestri ballerini esperti, che le insegnano lo swing, il Lindy Hop e il jitterbug.[9] Katy si diploma alla Dos Pueblos High School e lascia il liceo dopo il primo anno per iniziare la carriera musicale.[10] Inizia a cantare "perché era in quel punto della sua infanzia in cui copiava esattamente tutto ciò che la sua sorella maggiore faceva."[10] Sua sorella si allenava per mezzo di cassette, e Katy gliele sottraeva quando era via. Provava le canzoni e le cantava davanti ai suoi genitori, che hanno deciso di suggerirle di frequentare una scuola di canto. Colta al volo l'opportunità, Perry inizia a prendere lezioni dai nove ai sedici anni. Frequenta poi la Music Academy of the West a Santa Barbara, dove studia opera italiana per un breve periodo.[10]
[modifica] Carriera
[modifica] 2000–2006: Gli esordi
All'età di 15 anni, quando ancora cantava in chiesa, Perry ha attratto l'attenzione di alcuni musicisti rock di Nashville che l'hanno condotta là per affinare le sue doti di cantautrice.[11] Qui ha cominciato a registrare demo con l'aiuto di veterani del country, che le hanno insegnato anche a suonare la chitarra.[6][8] La cantante ha firmato un contratto con l'etichetta discografica di musica cristiana Red Hill Records, sotto la quale ha registrato il suo album di debutto quando aveva 15 anni.[12] Come Katy Hudson, ha pubblicato l'eponimo album di debutto gospel-rock nel 2001.[11] L'album non fu un successo, e l'etichetta fallì dopo poco tempo.[12] La cantante ha poi deciso di cambiare il suo cognome in Perry, il nome da nubile di sua madre, perché Katy Hudson richiamava troppo l'attrice Kate Hudson.[11][13]
A 17 anni Katy ha lasciato casa per trasferirsi a Los Angeles, dove ha lavorato con il produttore Glen Ballard per l'etichetta discografica Island Records.[14] Essendo cresciuta ascoltando solo musica gospel, la cantante aveva pochi modelli a cui riferirsi all'inizio della sua carriera.[6] Quando le fu chiesto con chi volesse collaborare, ella non seppe rispondere. La stessa notte, andata in un hotel con sua madre, accese la televisione sul canale VH1, dove vide Glen Ballard che parlava con Alanis Morissette;[6] Ballard ha prodotto l'album di maggior successo della Morissette, Jagged Little Pill, artista di grande influenza su Perry,[11] la quale ha subito espresso interesse nel lavorare con Ballard, che ha organizzato un incontro con lei a Los Angeles. Katy gli ha presentato una sua canzone e ha ricevuto una chiamata il giorno dopo. Il produttore l'ha aiutata a migliorare la sua tecnica di cantautrice negli anni successivi.[6] Il secondo album di Katy doveva venire pubblicato nel 2005,[11][12] ma, secondo quanto riportato dalla rivista Billboard, tutti i progetti sono andati in fumo. La Island ha quindi licenziato la cantante.[12] Alcune canzoni registrate per l'album, intitolate Box, Diamonds e Long Shot, furono caricate sul profilo MySpace della cantante in quel periodo. Simple, un altro pezzo che aveva registrato con Glen Ballard, è stato inserito nella soundtrack del film del 2005 4 amiche e un paio di jeans.[15]
Katy Perry ha firmato un contratto con la Columbia Records nel 2004. Tuttavia, l'etichetta non si mostrava aperta alla visione musicale della cantante, in quanto le impediva di prendere decisioni sulla sua carriera.[12] Una delle idee della Columbia era quella di accoppiarla con la squadra discografica The Matrix, che stava lavorando su un album, e che aveva bisogno di una vocalista. Anche se l'album in questione alla fine non è mai stato pubblicato,[16] ha comunque ottenuto attenzione dai media: la sua musica è infatti stata definita di prossimo successo nell'ottobre 2004 dalla rivista Blender.[12] Rimasta senza alcun progetto, Perry iniziò a registrare da sé un nuovo album. L'ottanta percento di esso fu completato prima del tempo di scadenza, e la Columbia Records decise di interrompere i lavori e di non pubblicarlo, e infine di licenziarla.[12] Mentre cercava un'altra etichetta discografica, Katy Perry ha lavorato con una compagna indipendente di A&R chiamata Taxi Music. Nel 2006, Katy ha fatto una comparsata nel video accompagnatorio del singolo Goodbye for Now dei P.O.D.; è inoltre comparsa nei video Learn to Fly dei Carbon Leaf e in If We Ever Meet Again di Timbaland.[17]
[modifica] 2007–2009: One of the Boys
 |
Per approfondire, vedi la voce One of the Boys (album Katy Perry). |
Dopo il licenziamento di Perry dalla Columbia Records nel 2006, l'addetta alla pubblicità dell'etichetta Angelica Cob-Baehler consigliò a Jason Flom, il presidente della Virgin Records, di sentire Perry.[18] In quel periodo, Flom stava cercando una pop star a cui dare successo mondiale per la sua etichetta.[18] Nonostante le differenti reazioni dei vari rappresentanti della Virgin, Flom pensò che Katy Perry sarebbe potuta diventare la celebrità che desiderava, e, nei primi mesi del 2007, dopo trattative con la Columbia, le fece firmare un contratto con la Capitol Music Group, una nuova etichetta discografica che riuniva la Virgin e la Capitol. Il contratto prevedeva che le canzoni registrate per l'album mai pubblicato con la Columbia Records venissero conservate, fatto che ebbe una grande importanza per l'album di debutto della cantante, One of the Boys.[18]
Le canzoni registrate per la Columbia furono ascoltate da Flom, che trovò il materiale "molto forte" ma sentì che mancavano "uno o due pezzi di sicuro successo per il mercato delle radio pop statunitensi e per quello internazionale". La prima cosa che egli fece fu quindi creare una collaborazione tra Perry e l'autore e produttore musicale Dr. Luke.[18] Dal loro lavoro ne risultarono le canzoni I Kissed a Girl e Hot n Cold. Creare alla cantante un'immagine fu una delle prime preoccupazioni dell'etichetta. A novembre 2007 fu pubblicato un singolo promozionale, Ur So Gay, con lo scopo di aprirle le porte del mercato musicale. Un EP digitale fu poi pubblicato con l'intento di attirare la stampa e i blog.[5][19] Questa fu una mossa efficace, visto che Perry riuscì ad attirare l'attenzione di Madonna, che ne parlò nel programma radiofonico mattutino dell'Arizona JohnJay & Rich delle radio KISS FM e KRQ. Il 10 marzo 2008 apparve nel ruolo di se stessa in un episodio della serie di ABC Family Wildfire intitolato La vita è troppo breve.[20]
Katy è poi passata alla seconda fase della promozione del suo album, che consisteva nell'intraprendere un tour radiofonico della durata di due mesi. Il primo singolo estratto dal suo album di debutto, I Kissed a Girl, è stato pubblicato il 6 maggio 2008. L'A&R di Perry, Chris Anokute, durante un'intervista con il sito HitQuarters, ha affermato che la canzone e il suo tema controverso sono stati poco apprezzati dagli esecutivi dell'etichetta, affermando: "Dicevano, 'Le radio non trasmetteranno mai questa canzone. Come faremo a venderla? In quale modo questa canzone sarà ascoltata nella Bible Belt?'"[19] Anokute ha detto che hanno avuto bisogno degli addetti alla promozione radiofonica dell'etichetta per convincere la gente a credere nel successo del singolo, altrimenti sarebbe stata licenziata un'altra volta. L'addetto alla promozione della Capitol Dennis Reese aiutò dunque la canzone a diventare un successo radiofonico. La prima stazione che decise di trasmetterla fu la radio The River a Nashville. Dopo averla trasmessa per tre giorni, la radio fu sommersa di chiamate telefoniche entusiaste.[19] Mentre il singolo iniziava a scalare le classifiche, Perry intraprese il festival musicale annuale Warped Tour 2008, visto che il suo management stava cercando di "renderla famosa come una vera cantante ed essere sicuri che non fosse vista solo come una ragazza che fa una canzone di successo e poi sparisce". Il singolo fu un successo commerciale, arrivando alla prima posizione della Billboard Hot 100[21] e alla vetta delle classifiche di altri diciassette Paesi, tra cui l'Australia, il Canada, l'Italia e il Regno Unito.[16] Il 12 giugno 2008 Perry apparse come se stessa nella soap opera Febbre d'amore[20] e posò per la copertina dell'edizione di giugno 2008 della rivista Restless Style.[22] Katy Perry ha inoltre fatto parte del coro della canzone Another Night in the Hills, inclusa nell'album di debutto di Gavin Rossdale Wanderlust, uscito nel 2008.[23]

One of the Boys è stato pubblicato il 17 giugno 2008 e ha ricevuto critiche contrastanti.[24] L'album è entrato alla nona posizione della Billboard 200 vendendo 47.000 copie nella sua prima settimana[25] ed è stato certificato disco di platino negli Stati Uniti per aver venduto oltre un milione di copie.[26] L'album è il trentatreesimo più venduto a livello mondiale nel 2008.[27] Per la sua promozione, è uscito nell'autunno del 2008 un secondo singolo, Hot n Cold, che è riuscito ad eguagliare il successo del precedente, raggiungendo la terza posizione della classifica statunitense, e la prima in Germania, Canada e Danimarca.[21] Concluso il Warped Tour, Katy Perry ha fatto delle esibizioni canore in Europa. Ha poi annunciato il suo primo tour da solista, chiamato Hello Katy Tour, a gennaio 2009.[12] I Kissed a Girl ha procurato a Perry un Grammy Award come miglior performance pop femminile.[28] Perry è stata nominata in cinque categorie agli MTV Video Music Award del 2008, tra cui miglior artista emergente e miglior video di cantante femmina; quest'ultimo premio è tuttavia andato a Britney Spears.[29] Ha vinto il premio come miglior artista agli MTV Europe Music Award nel 2008, che ha anche presentato,[30] e quello come miglior artisita femminile nel 2009 ai BRIT Award.[31] Il 9 febbraio 2009 sia I Kissed a Girl che Hot n Cold sono state certificate triplo disco di platino per aver venduto oltre tre milioni di copie negli Stati Uniti;[32] al 2012, il primo singolo aveva superato i quattro milioni di copie vendute, e il secondo i cinque.[33] Il libro del Guinness dei primati ha inserito Katy Perry nella sua edizione del 2010 come "miglior inizio per una cantante donna nella classifica digitale statunitense", viste le vendite dei suoi due primi singoli.[34] Katy è inoltre cinquantunesima nella lista del cantanti che hanno venduto di più nel decennio 2000-2009.[35]
L'album di debutto dei The Matrix, che hanno collaborato con Perry, fu pubblicato attraverso l'etichetta discografica del team, la Let's Hear It Records, durante il tour di Perry. Quando la data di pubblicazione fu stabilita, I Kissed a Girl aveva già raggiunto un notevole successo internazionale. Lauren Christy, membro dei Matrix, ha discusso con Perry, e ha deciso di aspettare a pubblicare l'album fino all'uscita del quarto singolo estratto da One of the Boys. Nonostante ciò, l'album fu immesso su iTunes il 27 gennaio 2009, poco dopo la pubblicazione di Thinking of You.[36]
Il 16 maggio 2009 Katy si è esibita all'evento annuale di beneficenza Life Ball a Vienna, in Austria.[37] Il mese dopo gli avvocati della cantante hanno fatto causa alla stilista emergente australiana Katie Perry per l'utilizzo di un nome troppo simile a quello di Perry.[38] Katie Perry ha poi scritto sul suo sito che il 10 luglio 2009 gli avvocati di Katy hanno ritirato l'accusa.[39] Durante l'estate 2009 Perry ha partecipato alle riprese del film In viaggio con una rock star; la sua scena, nella quale bacia il suo futuro findanzato Russell Brand, fu tuttavia tagliata.[40] Sempre nel 2009, Perry ha fatto parte di due collaborazioni musicali: un remix di Starstruck dei 3OH!3 ad agosto, e If We Ever Meet Again con Timbaland a dicembre.[41] A ottobre 2009 MTV Unplugged ha confermato che Perry si sarebbe esibita per loro e che avrebbe pubblicato un album live dopo la sua performance con due inediti: Brick by Brick e Hackensack (quest'ultima è una cover dei Fountains of Wayne).[42] L'album è stato pubblicato il 17 novembre 2009 e include un CD di sette tracce e un DVD.[43] L'album è entrato in classifica solo negli Stati Uniti, in Francia e in Svizzera con scarsi risultati, raggiungendo rispettivamente le posizioni numero 168,[44] 192[45] e 82.[46]
[modifica] 2010–2012: Il grande successo di Teenage Dream
|
Per approfondire, vedi la voce Teenage Dream. |
Katy Perry è stata un giudice alle audizioni della settima serie di The X Factor in Gran Bretagna insieme a Simon Cowell, Cheryl Cole e Louis Walsh il 28 giugno 2010 (puntata poi mandata in onda il 28 agosto).[47] È stata una delle celebrità che hanno sostituito Dannii Minogue, che in quel periodo era in maternità. Sarebbe poi tornata a The X Factor il 17 ottobre dello stesso anno per esibirsi con Firework.[48] Il secondo album di Perry, Teenage Dream, è stato pubblicato il 24 agosto 2010 in Nordamerica[49] e il 30 agosto nel resto del mondo.[50] L'album è entrato direttamente alla prima posizione della classifica degli album statunitense vendendo 192.000 copie nella sua prima settimana, molte meno di quanto previsto.[51] Ha finora venduto più di due milioni di copie negli Stati Uniti ed è stato certificato doppio disco di platino.[52] Ha anche fatto il suo debutto alla vetta della classifica canadese con 26.000 copie vendute e,[53] per averne totalizzate oltre 160.000 fino ad oggi, è anche qui stato premiato con il doppio disco di platino.[54] In Italia ha raggiunto la terza posizione[55] ed è stato certificato disco d'oro con 30.000 copie vendute.[56]
Il primo singolo estratto da Teenage Dream, intitolato California Gurls, fu pubblicato il 7 maggio 2010[57] ed entrò alla seconda posizione della classifica statunitense con 294.000 copie vendute nella sua prima settimana.[58] Il singolo ha poi raggiunto la prima posizione della Billboard Hot 100, posizione che mantenne per sei settimane consecutive.[59] Le vendite totali del singolo ammontano a più di cinque milioni di copie nei soli Stati Uniti,[60] rendendo California Gurls la quarta canzone più venduta nel Paese nel 2010[61] e la più venduta in Canada nello stesso anno.[62] A settembre 2011, California Gurls aveva venduto 5.002.000 copie nei soli Stati Uniti.[63] In seguito a California Gurls è uscito il singolo Teenage Dream, che venne messo in commercio il 23 luglio 2010.[64] Il singolo è entrato alla ventesima posizione della Billboard Hot 100 con 84.000 copie vendute nella sua prima settimana e un'audience radiofonica di quasi 15 milioni di persone.[65] Teenage Dream è rimasto in vetta alla classifica per due settimane consecutive in totale[66] ed è stato premiato con il triplo disco di platino per aver venduto almeno tre milioni di copie[52] (a settembre 2011 ne aveva infatti vendute 3.922.000).[63] Oltre che a questi due singoli, altri tre brani hanno anticipato l'uscita di Teenage Dream ad agosto 2010: Not Like the Movies,[67] Circle the Drain[68] ed E.T. (quest'ultimo verrà poi estratto come quarto singolo ufficiale l'anno successivo);[69] un ulteriore singolo promozionale, Peacock, è uscito nelle discoteche statunitense, e ha finora venduto 403.000 copie nei solo Stati Uniti, pur senza il supporto di un video e di una promozione vera e propria.[63]
Katy ha ricevuto due nomination agli MTV Video Music Award, svolti il 12 settembre 2010, come miglior video di cantante donna e miglior video pop con California Gurls; ha inoltre presentato la cerimonia di premiazione per il miglior video di cantante uomo con Eminem e Nicki Minaj.[70] Il 14 settembre è tornata alla sua vecchia scuola, la Dos Pueblos High School, dove si è esibita per gli studenti.[71][72] Perry ha cantanto Hot n Cold con il muppet Elmo per il programma educativo per bambini Sesamo apriti. L'esibizione, che sarebbe dovuta andare in onda nella prima puntata della quarantunesima stagione del programma il 27 settembre 2010, venne cancellata quattro giorni prima: "Alla luce dei pareri che abbiamo ricevuto sull'esibizione di Katy Perry, abbiamo deciso di non mandare in onda in televisione questa parte su Sesamo apriti, programma destinato ai bambini. I fan di Katy Perry potranno tuttavia vedere il video su YouTube." La ragione principale di tutto ciò è che molti genitori si sono lamentati del fatto che la scollatura del vestito di Perry rendeva eccessivamente visibili i seni della cantante.[73] Il profumo di Katy Perry, Purr, è stato reso disponibile nei negozi a partire da novembre 2010 per la linea Gigantic Parfums.[74][75] La passione per i gatti di Perry ha influenzato sia la sua decisione sul nome e sul design del profumo, sia quella sulla forma della boccetta; ulteriore ispirazione proviene da altri prodotti cosmetici venduti in tutto il mondo.[76] Purr include una vasta varietà di fragranze, perlopiù cedro, con l'aggiunta di estratti di nettare di pesco, mela e bambù verde.[77] Immesso nei negozi a partire da novembre 2010, è contenuto in una boccetta a forma di gatto.[78] Il profumo ha avuto un buon successo, divenendo il più venduto nelle prime nove settimane dopo che è stato messo in commercio.[79] A fine ottobre 2010 è stato pubblicato il terzo singolo estratto da Teenage Dream, Firework, eletto dalla stessa Perry la sua canzone preferita dell'album.[80] Il video per il singolo, girato a fine settembre a Budapest, in Ungheria, è stato diretto da Dave Meyers.[81] Ben 38.000 persone si sono presentate ai provini per farne parte.[82] Firework ha raggiunto la vetta delle classifiche di Canada,[83] Nuova Zelanda[84] e Stati Uniti,[21] dove è stato certificato rispettivamente quadruplo,[85] doppio[86] e quintuplo disco di platino.[52] Negli Stati Uniti, a dicembre 2011, Firework aveva venduto 5.102.000 copie.[87] In Italia ha raggiunto la quarta posizione[88] e ha venduto più di 30.000 copie, guadagnandosi il disco di platino.[89] Le vendite di Firework sono state rilevanti anche in Australia, dove ha raggiunto la terza posizione:[90] oltre 350.000, vincendo cinque dischi di platino.[91]
L'album Teenage Dream ha procurato a Perry due nomination ai Grammy Award svolti il 13 febbraio 2011: album dell'anno e miglior album pop; inoltre, grazie al singolo Teenage Dream è stata nominata al premio per la miglior canzone pop di cantante femminile, mentre California Gurls le ha regalato una nomination come miglior collaborazione pop.[92] Katy ha inoltre cantato Not Like the Movies e Teenage Dream ai Grammy.[93] Pochi giorni dopo la cerimonia, il 16 febbraio, è uscito il quarto singolo estratto dal suo secondo album d'inediti, E.T.; di esso è stato messo in commercio un remix con il rapper Kanye West.[94] Il singolo è stato un altro successo planetario, arrivando alla vetta delle classifiche in Canada,[95] Nuova Zelanda[96] e Stati Uniti (in quest'ultimo Paese è rimasta alla posizione numero uno per cinque settimane non consecutive).[21] E.T. risulta il singolo più venduto nella prima metà del 2011 negli Stati Uniti, con 4.120.000 copie;[97] a settembre 2011 ne aveva invece vendute 4.728.000.[87] Il singolo ha inoltre raggiunto la nona posizione in Italia[98] ed è stato certificato disco d'oro per aver venduto almeno 15.000 copie.[99] Di E.T. è stato prodotto da Floria Sigismondi un video molto particolare, interamente ambientato nello spazio, che in una prima parte mostra l'evoluzione della cantante, truccata e acconciata in modo particolare, fluttuante nello spazio in suntuosi vestiti; in seguito, ella giunge su un pianeta desolato, dove trova il suo amante, che libera da una sorta di prigionia dall'interno di un contenitore di metallo.[100]
A maggio 2011 ha partecipato ai Billboard Music Award, vincendo nelle categorie miglior artista nella classifica Hot 100 e miglior artista nella classifica Digital Songs, visti i suoi quattro numeri uno in meno di un anno in entrambe le classifiche.[101] Il 6 giugno 2011 è stato pubblicato come quinto singolo Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) che, dopo molte settimane trascorse alla seconda posizione in attesa di superare Party Rock Anthem degli LMFAO, raggiunse la vetta della Billboard Hot 100, soprattutto grazie a uno sconto a 69 centesimi che rimase attivo per un breve lasso di tempo[102] e a un remix con Missy Elliott, pubblicato l'8 agosto dello stesso anno.[103] Katy Perry diventa la prima artista femminile ad avere cinque singoli estratti dallo stesso album alla numero uno della classifica americana, seconda in generale, dopo Michael Jackson.[102] La cantante ha così accumulato in totale 19 settimane in totale alla vetta della classifica statunitense con i singoli di Teenage Dream e 25 includendo anche I Kissed a Girl, l'unico estratto da One of the Boys a raggiungere tale risultato.[21] Tra il 29 maggio 2010, quando California Gurls ha fatto il suo debutto alla seconda posizione, e il 17 settembre 2011, quando Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) si trovava alla decima posizione della Billboard Hot 100, Katy è sempre rimasta in top ten con uno dei suoi cinque singoli: è pertanto divenuta l'artista con il più lungo lasso di tempo ininterrotto passato nelle prime dieci posizioni della classifica dei singoli statunitense.[104] A dicembre 2011 il singolo aveva venduto 2.579.000 copie digitali negli Stati Uniti.[87] Nel 2011 è inoltre debuttata nel mondo cinematografico come doppiatrice del personaggio di Puffetta nel film I Puffi.[105] Sempre nel 2011 ha ricevuto ben nove nomination agli MTV Video Music Award, diventando l'artista ad averne ricevute di più in questa edizione, seguita da Adele e Kanye West, che ne hanno ricevute sei. Tra le sue nomination spiccano quella per il video dell'anno e per il miglior video di cantante femminile con Firework e quello per il miglior video pop con Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.). Di queste nove nomination ne ha vinte tre: video dell'anno (Firework) e miglior collaborazione e migliori effetti speciali (E.T.).[106] Il sesto singolo estratto da Teenage Dream è stato The One That Got Away, pubblicato il 26 settembre 2011.[107] Il singolo ha raggiunto la decima posizione della classifica statunitense nella settimana del 3 dicembre 2011, diventando il sesto a giungere nella top ten da Teenage Dream,[108] che diventa il quarto album in assoluto a raggiungere tale record; altri tre album hanno invece prodotto sette singoli top ten.[109] La settimana successiva sale alla nona posizione, entrando anche nella top ten della classifica digitale alla quinta posizione.[110] L'attuale massima posizione raggiunta nella classifica è la quarta, aiutata da una speciale promozione del singolo a 69 centesimi negli Stati Uniti per un periodo limitato a partire dal 6 dicembre 2011.[111] Il 15 dicembre 2011 è uscito in radio un remix di The One That Got Away che prevede la partecipazione del rapper B.o.B; è stato reso disponibile sulle piattaforme digitali a partire dal successivo 20 dicembre.[112]
Il 9 dicembre 2011 la Billboard ha reso disponibili le classifiche annuali del 2011. Katy Perry si è classificata terza come artista dell'anno dietro ad Adele e Rihanna,[113] ed è l'artista le cui canzoni sono state maggiormente riprodotte in radio nel corso dell'anno,[114] nonché quella che ha venduto più singoli.[115] L'album Teenage Dream è risultato essere il decimo più venduto dell'anno;[116] era stato certificato doppio disco di platino già dal 13 ottobre per aver venduto oltre due milioni di copie.[117] Inoltre, quattro canzoni sono comparse nella classifica annuale della Billboard Hot 100: Firework (numero 3), E.T. (numero 4), Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) (numero 14) e Teenage Dream (numero 75).[118][119][120] MTV l'ha eletta l'artista dell'anno il 15 dicembre 2011.[121] Katy è stata inoltre nominata in sette categorie ai People's Choice Award, svolti l'11 gennaio 2012. La cantante avrebbe dovuto presenziare all'evento, ma due giorni prima postò un messaggio su Twitter che diceva: "Purtroppo non mi sarà possibile essere ai People's Choice Award. Vorrei tuttavia ringraziare tutti coloro che hanno votato per me, incrociamo le dita!"[122] Ha vinto cinque premi sui sette per i quali era nominata, diventando l'artista più premiata nella cerimonia del People's Choice Award di quest'anno: artista femminile e miglior video (Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)), miglior canzone (E.T.), miglior tour, e, in campo cinematografico, miglior ruolo come comparsa (How I Met Your Mother).[123] Katy Perry è stata nominata ai Grammy Award del 2012 nelle categorie singolo dell'anno e migliore brano pop di solista con Firework.[124] Inoltre, la cantante durante la cerimonia si è anche esibita.[125]
Ad ottobre 2011 il produttore Tricky Stewart (che aveva partecipato alla produzione dei brani Hummingbird Heatbeat, Cricle the Drain, Pearl e Who Am I Living For?) ha dichiarato: "Katy e io siamo tornati in studio per sistemare quei brani che avevamo registrato nel passato ma che non sono presenti su Teenage Dream, e stiamo li quindi riascoltando e migliorando, preparandoci per qualcosa di speciale che Katy ha in mente."[126] A gennaio 2012 Amazon.com ha confermato la pubblicazione della ristampa di Teenage Dream per il 27 marzo 2012.[127] Il 13 febbraio 2012 è stato pubblicato il primo inedito della riedizione di Teenage Dream, Part of Me,[128] che ha debuttato direttamente al primo posto nella classifica statunitense vendendo 411.000 copie nella sua prima settimana; diventa così il singolo più venduto nella sua settimana di debutto dopo Born This Way di Lady Gaga, che ha venduto 509.000 copie nella settimana del 5 marzo 2011. Come Part of Me, anche Hold It Against Me di Britney Spears, a gennaio 2011, aveva venduto 411.000 copie in sette giorni.[129][130] Inoltre, nel 2012 Katy Perry si è posizionata all'ottavo posto della classifica delle cento celebrità più potenti del mondo stilata dalla rivista Forbes.[131] La ristampa Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection, che include le dodici tracce standard più tre inediti, tre remix e un megamix, ha permesso all'album di saltare dal trentunesimo posto al settimo, con 33.000 copie vendute.[132] A Part of Me è seguito Wide Awake, l'ottavo e ultimo singolo di Teenage Dream.[133] Il 2 luglio 2012 è uscito il film documentario Katy Perry: Part of Me, che parla della carriera della cantante dalla sua infanzia sino ad oggi. Negli Stati Uniti, il film ha guadagnato 7.140.000 dollari nel weekend fra il 6 e il 7 luglio e 11.200.000 dollari in tutta la sua prima settimana, oltre che a 2.300.000 dollari in tutto il resto del mondo.[134]
[modifica] Stile musicale e temi
La voce di Katy Perry è da contralto.[135] Il primo album della cantante, Katy Hudson, è di genere gospel.[5][12] Ha affermato che allora la sua musica era "alquanto chiusa e molto rigida", e tutti i temi trattati erano correlati alla chiesa.[5] Il suo secondo album, One of the Boys, è descritto come "profano" e "rock", e mostra il completo distacco della cantante dal mondo religioso.[5] Il suo terzo album Teenage Dream include più canzoni pop, al contrario del primo, dove prevaleva il rock.[9][136] Le maggiori influenze musicali di Katy Perry provengono da Alanis Morissette,[7][16] Cyndi Lauper, Pat Benatar, Joan Jett, Shirley Manson[137] e Freddie Mercury.[6] A quest'ultimo, durante il suo sessantacinquesimo compleanno, ha detto: "Senza di te non sarei una musicista o non starei facendo ciò che sto facendo perché i tuoi testi mi hanno ispirata sin da quand'ero una quindicenne."[138] Una canzone in particolare dei Queen, Killer Queen, è quella che ha spronato la cantante a iniziare una carriera nella musica pop dopo il suo album di debutto.[5] Ha inoltre definito l'album della Morissette Jagged Little Pill di grande influenza sulla sua musica: è per questo motivo che scelse di lavorare con un collaboratore della cantautrice canadese, Glen Ballard, sul suo primo album.[11]
Perry non è solo cantante, ma è anche autrice di testi e chitarrista. Nei primi anni della sua carriera ha scritto diverse canzoni per sottoporle a produttori musicali. Katy fa spesso riferimento a specifici momenti della sua vita per le sue canzoni. Ha affermato che per lei risulta facile scrivere canzoni su rotture di relazioni sentimentali.[6] La maggior parte delle tracce presenti su One of the Boys parla di storie d'amore finite, avventure adolescenziali e "vomitate in gabinetti".[11] Secondo quanto riportato dal tabloid britannico Daily Mail, la madre di Perry detesta la musica della figlia, definendola "turpe e disgustosa".[5][139] La cantante ha poi affermato in un'intervista con MTV che tale informazione è falsa.[139] Le sue canzoni Ur So Gay e I Kissed a Girl hanno visto reazioni negative da parte sia di associazioni religiose, sia pro-LGBT.[139] La prima canzone è stata definita omofobica, mentre la seconda a favore dell'omosessualità, nonché "da film d'exploitation lesbo".[5] MTV ha affermato che questa bi-curiosità che Perry ha adottato come tema nelle sue canzoni è un ottimo modo per vendere.[139] Katy ha così risposto alle critiche inflitte a Ur So Gay: "Non è una connotazione negativa. Non è come dire 'sei così gay' nel senso di 'sei così penoso', ma si riferisce al fatto che quel determinato ragazzo avrebbe potuto essere effettivamente gay. Capisco che ciò potrebbe essere malinteso o qualunque altra cosa... Non stavo stereotipando nessuno, stavo semplicemente parlando di ex fidanzati."[140]
[modifica] Immagine pubblica
Katy Perry è conosciuta per il suo bizzarro stile nel vestirsi.[9] Veste spesso estrosamente, con colori chiari, outfit retrò, spesso contenenti accessori a forma di frutta (in gran parte angurie) e dolciumi.[137] Avendo imparato a ballare da piccola, ha sempre voluto avere un suo stile personale. La trasformazione di Perry in un'artista vera e propria è iniziata con una revisione dello stile: per fare ciò si è ispirata all'attrice statunitense Dominique Swain nel film del 1997 Lolita.[11] Definisce il suo stile nel vestirsi "un intruglio di cose differenti tra loro".[9] Johnny Wujek, lo stilista di Perry, ha descritto il suo stile, quando l'ha vista per la prima volta, come "molto colorato e vintage".[141] Il suo stile ha in seguito catturato l'attenzione di vari stilisti.[5][137] A giugno 2008 una fotografia di Katy che la mostrava posare con un coltello a scatto ha ricevuto molte critiche.[142] La foto è stata difesa in quanto il suo scopo era quello di dare alla cantante "un'immagine più sexy e più forte".[142] Come ironica risposta alle critiche, Perry ha poi fatto un servizio fotografico dove posava con un cucchiaio.[143]
Secondo la lista delle cento donne più sexy stipulata dalla rivista FHM, Perry è la ventitreesima più avvenente del 2009 e la trentasettesima nel 2010.[144] È stata eletta dalla rivista Rolling Stone la settima più grande regina del pop a luglio 2011.[145] La cantante fa inoltre parte del movimento di liberazione omosessuale. A tal proposito ha affermato in un'intervista con il sito Dosomething.org: "Faccio parte del movimento gay e ne sono fiera. Ho votato no all'ottava proposta della legge californiana," - un emendamento dello Stato che dichiarava che gli unici matrimoni legali erano quelli eterosessuali - "ovviamente."[146]
[modifica] Vita privata
Katy Perry, durante la sua carriera, ha avuto tre importanti relazioni con Matt Thiessen, Travie McCoy e Russell Brand. È stata fidanzata con il frontman dei Relient K Matt Thiessen per alcuni anni; in questo periodo Thiessen ha anche collaborato all'album Teenage Dream.[147] La cantante ha poi avuto una relazione con il frontman dei Gym Class Heroes Travie McCoy, che aveva conosciuto in uno studio di registrazione a New York;[13] i due si sono lasciati nel dicembre del 2008.[148] La canzone Circle the Drain, inclusa nell'album Teenage Dream, parla della relazione che la cantante ha avuto con McCoy.[149][150][151] Quando gli è stata chiesta la sua opinione sulla canzone, Travie McCoy ha ammesso di averne sentito parlare, ma di non averla mai ascoltata, commentando: "Ho sentito che è uscita una sua canzone che parla di me o di qualche vecchia abitudine o che altro. La vedo in questo modo: sono solo contento che finalmente abbia una canzone con un po' di sostanza in un suo disco. Ben fatto."[150]
Perry incontrò per la prima volta l'attore inglese Russell Brand nell'estate del 2009, quando recitò nel film In viaggio con una rock star, di cui Brand era uno degli interpreti principali.[152] Perry e Brand iniziarono a uscire insieme dopo essersi incontrati nuovamente ai MTV Video Music Award nel settembre dello stesso anno, dove Brand, che presentava la cerimonia, affermò: "Katy Perry non ha vinto alcun premio e sta al mio stesso hotel, pertanto ha bisogno di una spalla su cui piangere. In un certo modo, sono quindi una sorta di vincitore stasera."[153] La coppia si è fidanzata ufficialmente a dicembre 2009 durante un viaggio in India.[154][155][156] Katy ha affermato di volere acquisire la cittadinanza britannica: "Una delle prime cose che farò è ottenere la doppia cittadinanza. Non sono molto sicura se dovrò fare un esame, visto che non ho ancora avuto tempo d'informarmi. Ma l'Inghilterra è come la mia seconda casa."[157] Perry e Brand si sono sposati il 23 ottobre 2010 in una tradizionale cerimonia hindu nei pressi del tempio della tigre di Ranthambhore nel Rajasthan in India, dove Russell le aveva chiesto la mano.[158][159] Il 30 dicembre 2011, circa quattordici mesi dopo il suo matrimonio, Katy Perry e Russell Brand si sono separati per "inconciliabili differenze".[160]

Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr., meglio noto come Snoop Dogg o anche The Bigg Boss Dogg, Bigg Snoop Dogg, Snoop D-O Double G , Snoop Doggy Dogg e Snoop Lion (Long Beach, 20 ottobre 1971), è un rapper, attore e produttore discografico statunitense.
È il presentatore ufficiale anche dello show televisivo "Dogg After Dark", in cui ad ogni serata sono stati presenti grandi celebrità del mondo dello spettacolo e dell'intrattenimento. È cugino di un altro artista hip hop, Nate Dogg, seppur di minor successo. A detta di alcuni rapper, tra i quali Busta Rhymes, è stato uno dei migliori nel panorama, grazie alle liriche originali e alla grande capacità da mc fin da giovane età. Si fa notare per il flow melodico, reso tale anche dal timbro vocale, e per i testi tendenti a dargli un'immagine di "Gangster-Pappone". La sua musicalità lo ha reso perfetto per la diffusione del G-Funk, in particolare in collaborazione con il collega Dr. Dre.

[modifica] Biografia
Calvin Broadus nasce al Los Altos Hospital di Long Beach, California, secondo dei tre figli di Beverly Broadus. Suo padre, Vernall Varnado, è un veterano del Vietnam, cantante e postino che Calvin riesce a vedere solamente una volta ogni tanto, poiché è frequentemente assente dalla sua vita. I genitori di Calvin gli affibbiano il nomignolo "Snoopy" per il suo aspetto e iniziano a chiamarlo così a casa. Il giovane Calvin inizia a cantare come membro del coro del Golgotha Trinity Baptist Church e a suonare il pianoforte; inizia a rappare poco prima di andare alle scuole superiori. Frequenta la Long Beach Polytechnic High School, e poi si trasferisce alla Jordan High School, ma viene condannato per spaccio di cocaina e costretto a servire alla prigione di Wayside County.
L'infanzia a Long Beach non è facile per Snoop: le continue difficoltà con la legge lo costringono ad alterni periodi di prigione, dovuti anche al suo ingresso in un sottogruppo della banda dei Crips: la "rollin' 20 crips" (gruppo cui tutt'oggi Snoop si sente molto attaccato, come dimostrano i versi di diverse canzoni come quelli di "Drop It Like It's Hot" con Pharrell: "I keep a blue flag hanging out my backside, But only on the left side, yeah that's the Crip side"). o più precisamente quelli della canzone "I wanna rock" dove viene nominata la banda dei rollin' 20 crips: "the homeys growin big I'm all in the club rollin twenty crips" e in molte sue altre canzoni. Assurge a notorietà nel 1993, dopo la conoscenza con Dr. Dre, fratellastro di Warren G con cui aveva avviato le prime esperienze rap, formando la crew 213 (assieme anche al cugino Nate Dogg), con il quale 2004 riuscirà a pubblicare un intero album.
[modifica] Carriera musicale
[modifica] 1992-1997: Gli anni alla Death Row
Agli esordi si faceva chiamare Snoop Doggy Dogg. Ha tolto "Doggy" dal nome nel 1996, dopo aver lasciato l'etichetta discografica Death Row Records per passare alla No Limit Records.
Le prime registrazioni ufficiali quindi si possono trovare in The Chronic, disco di Dr. Dre, in cui comunque Snoop Doggy Dogg canta almeno quanto Dre. In questo periodo Snoop aiuta Dr. Dre a portare avanti il diss che egli aveva con il suo ex amico ed ex Leader degli NWA (crew di cui Dre faceva parte) Eazy-E, come si nota nella canzone "Fuck with Dre Day". In seguito a ciò Eazy-E se la prese anche con lui e l'intera Death Row Records oltre che con Dre, e in molte canzoni di Eazy Snoop viene preso in giro per gli insulti che gli aveva rivolto. Da ricordare Nuthin' but a G Thang tra le canzoni più famose che Dre e Doggy Dogg fecero insieme, a brevissimo segue Doggystyle, suo primo album solista, che va subito in vetta alle principali classifiche. What's My Name e Gin & Juice i pezzi più famosi di un disco considerato una pietra miliare nell'universo del rap, mentre il video del pezzo Doggy Dogg World ha vinto nel 1994 il Best Rap Video agli MTV Video Music Awards.
Dopo l'enorme successo di Doggystyle (5 volte disco di platino), l'immagine di Snoop è ormai definitivamente quella del "gangsta rapper"; questo gli porterà una grande fama e gli permetterà di essere conosciuto, ma gli creerà anche difficoltà legali. Snoop passa un anno di inattività dal punto di vista artistico: si deve infatti difendere da un processo che alla fine lo vedrà prosciolto dalle accuse. Nel novembre 1996 esce "Tha Doggfather", secondo album del rapper angelino, creato senza la collaborazione di Dr. Dre, che nel frattempo è uscito dalla Death Row Records. La casa discografica affronta un brutto periodo: l'uscita dell'ex N.W.A. lascia tutto nelle mani di Suge Knight, non proprio famoso per la sua immagine pulita (processato per estorsione, racket ecc.), e l'omicidio di Tupac (secondo alcuni proprio ad opera di Suge)[senza fonte] non contribuisce ad aumentare il prestigio della Death Row. I 2 dischi di platino Snoop li dedicherà all'amico Tupac Shakur.
[modifica] 1998-2003: No Limit e Capitol Records
Nuovo album nuova etichetta: Snoop decide di passare alla No Limit Records, la casa discografica di Master P. Nel 1998 uscirà "Da Game Is To Be Sold, Not To Be Told", seguito l'anno dopo da "No Limit Top Dogg". Questi album non soddisfano la critica, che si accorge che, nonostante qualche pezzo di successo, il livello artistico è nettamente inferiori ai primi lp. Snoop dà l'impressione di rispettare un contratto che lo costringe a sfornare canzoni senza pausa, e la sua reputazione ne risente. Ciò non gli impedisce tuttavia di mantenere altissimi i livelli delle vendite ( i due album raggiungono entrambi il disco di platino).Nel 1999 duettò con il lead singer dei Red Hot Chili Peppers, Anthony Kiedis, in conclusione alla canzone Scar Tissue dell'album Californication (1999).
Spinto dalla voglia di rifarsi, Snoop crea nel 2000 la sua etichetta personale, la Dogg House Records. Nello stesso anno uscirà The Last Meal, album che vede molte collaborazioni di alto livello (Nate Dogg, Ice Cube - altro ex N.W.A.-, ecc.). Per la serie "a volte ritornano": Suge Knight, che ha perso i clienti celebri di un tempo ma non i chili di troppo e la sua attitudine, pensa bene di mettere a disposizione sul sito della Death Row i brani del nuovo album di Snoop, scaricabili gratuitamente.
Nel 2001 realizza un video che mescola pornografia e musica hip-hop, edito da Hustler, che divenne il primo video hardcore ad entrare nelle classifiche di vendita del Billboard.
Nel 2002 esce "Paid Tha Cost To Be Da Boss". Il lavoro con la Piority Records è ricco di pezzi importanti e di successo: fra i tanti, Beautiful, cantata insieme a Pharrell Williams, esprime le nuove tendenze di Snoop, che più si risentiranno nell'album successivo.
[modifica] 2004: Geffen Records
Nel 2003 ha collaborato con i Limp Bizkit nel brano "Red Light Green Light" (da Results May Vary).
Nel 2005 ha pubblicato il nuovo disco, R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece, e si conferma tra i migliori, per stile e per vendite. Il successo è immediato: grazie ai singoli "Drop It Like It's Hot" e "Signs" (rispettivamente con Pharrell e Justin Timberlake) Snoop torna sulle scene internazionali da assoluto protagonista, riempiendo radio e televisioni col suo suono sempre più originale. Nello stesso anno vince agli MTV Europe Music Awards come Miglior Artista Hip-Hop. Nel 2004 ha inoltre recitato sul grande schermo nei panni di Huggy Bear in Starsky & Hutch (rifacimento dell'omonimo e famosissimo telefilm), accanto a Ben Stiller e Owen Wilson.
Ammiratore del grande Frank Sinatra, ne ha reinterpretato la canzone New York, New York.
Nel 2006 pubblica il disco "Tha Blue Carpet Treatment" in cui si riconosce tutto il suo flow gangsta (con canzoni quali "Vato" che vede la collaborazione di B Real dei Cypress Hill) ma al tempo stesso anche note più ovattate e melodiche(Boss' Life,Crazy).Nello stesso anno riesce a pubblicare anche un disco insieme al suo gruppo: "Tha Dogg Pound" fondato insieme a Kurupt e Daz nel 1995 (il loro album d'esordio si chiama Dogg Food). Sempre nel 2006 Snoop vince agli MTV Australia Video Music Awards con il video del pezzo Drop It Like It's Hot come Best Hip-Hop Video. Nello stesso anno gira a Los Angeles il video singolo di successo Gangsta Walk, assieme al rapper Coolio, prodotto dagli italiani Vanni Giorgilli e Joshua Fenu, con il design dello stesso Fenu e straordinari effetti speciali di post produzione.
Nel 2007 Snoop è produttore di un album:"Snoop Dogg Present The Big Squeeze" con l'intento di portare alla ribalta molti dei rapper della costa occidentale (o Best of the West come vengono definiti dallo stesso Snoop) quali Western Union, Warzone, Terrace Martin, Jt Bigga Figga, Kurupt, Azurè.
Il 29 aprile 2007 ha vinto agli MTV Australia Video Music Awards come Best Hip-Hop Video con il video That's That in collaborazione con R. Kelly.
Il 7 luglio 2007 ha cantato al Live Earth dopo Shakira, nel concerto di Amburgo.
Il 1 novembre 2007 ha presentato da Monaco gli MTV Europe Music Awards,entrando a bordo di una Mercedes e accompagnato da ragazze pon-pon.
Il 30 marzo del 2008 ha partecipato al PPV della WWE, Wrestelmania 24, come MC della serata e del Play Boy Pillow Fight Match.
Nel 2010 ha collaborato con Katy Perry alla realizzazione del singolo di successo "California Gurls", dove duetta con la giovane cantante californiana. Snoop Dogg compare anche nel videoclip del singolo.
In diverse interviste il rapper ha annunciato di essersi convertito al rastafaresimo e ha deciso di usare il nuovo pseudonimo Snoop Lion. Entro la fine del 2012 pubblicherà un album totalmente reggae di cui è già stato estratto il singolo La La La. Sempre in un'intervista Snoop afferma di essere la reincarnazione di Bob Marley e asserisce di averlo compreso dopo che un sacerdote gli ha detto: "Tu sei la luce, tu sei il leone!".[senza fonte]

Kanye Omari West (Atlanta, 8 giugno 1977) è un rapper, beatmaker, stilista e produttore discografico statunitense. West è diventato famoso come produttore per la Roc-A-Fella Records, dove ha poi ottenuto numerosi riconoscimenti grazie al suo lavoro sull'album di Jay-Z The Blueprint, ed a canzoni di successo per molti artisti musicali tra cui Alicia Keys, Ludacris, e Janet Jackson. Il suo stile di produzione inizialmente usato prevedeva campionamenti vocali di acuti provenienti da canzoni soul incorporati con i suoi strumenti. Tuttavia, le produzioni successive lo videro ampliare la sua tavolozza musicale esprimendo influenze R&B degli anni '70, baroque pop, trip hop, arena rock, folk, alternativa, elettronica, synthpop, e musica classica.[1]
Ha collaborato in canzoni di successo come Stand Up di Ludacris, You Don't Know My Name di Alicia Keys, In Cold Blood di Scarface e Get By di Talib Kweli. Ha inoltre ottenuto significativi successi nella sua carriera, arrivando ad ottenere 18 Grammy Awards nel corso di essa.
È noto anche come Yeezy, spesso abbreviato in Ye.

[modifica] Biografia
Kanye è nato ad Atlanta, in Georgia,[2] insieme ai suoi genitori. Quando ebbe tre anni, i suoi genitori divorziarono, e lui e sua madre si trasferirono a Chicago, in Illinois.[3] Suo padre, Ray West, è un ex Black Panther che fu uno dei primi fotogiornalisti neri al The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, mentre adesso è un consulente cristiano.[3] Sua madre, Dr. Donda West, fu una professoressa di inglese alla Clark Atlanta University, e presidente del Dipartimento di Inglese alla Chicago State University prima di diventare la manager del figlio.[3] Kanye è cresciuto in un contesto borghese, frequentando la Polaris High School,[4] nella periferia di Oak Lawn, in Illinois dopo aver vissuto a Chicago.[5] Alla domanda su i propri voti presi al liceo, West rispose: "Prendevo A e B. E non mi impegnavo nemmeno".[6]
[modifica] Carriera
[modifica] 1996-2003: Esordi
Nel 1999 una sua strumentale viene utilizzata dal famoso produttore di Atlanta Jermaine Dupri per un suo brano all'interno del suo album Life In 1472. Nel 2001 Kanye, intenzionato a dare una svolta nella propria vita, parte verso l'east coast, da cui tornerà con diverse collaborazioni. Tra i tanti Jay-Z, che si dimostra intenzionato a scritturarlo per la Roc-A-Fella Records. Damon Dash, co-fondatore dell'etichetta, dopo aver ascoltato nel 2002 un demotape di Kanye sigilla il contratto e così il ragazzo si ritrova a collaborare con tutti gli artisti della Roc-A-Fella, realizzando strumentali perfino per Blueprint, fortunato album di Jay-Z (è sua la produzione musicale del celeberrimo singolo 03 Bonnie & Clyde).
[modifica] 2004-05: The College Dropout e Late Registration
L'album di debutto solista di Kanye West ha invece una storia costellata di sfortuna: un gravissimo incidente stradale coinvolge Kanye che riporta la frattura della mascella in tre parti. La data di uscita dell'LP deve essere rimandata. Solo due settimane dopo l'infortunio e con la bocca sfigurata, Kanye registra il testo del brano Through The Wire, suo primo singolo sotto Roc-A-Fella. All'inizio del 2004, dopo un lungo periodo di convalescenza, esce finalmente The College Dropout, la cui particolarità è quella di non trattare tematiche come la vita da criminale, la celebrazione del denaro o dei successi erotici, ma di soffermarsi su problemi e dubbi che ogni uomo si trova ad affrontare quotidianamente. Il progetto riceve grandi consensi a livello di critica e di pubblico. Through The Wire, accompagnata dal video, satura immediatamente le stazioni ed i canali musicali a livello internazionale.

Poco tempo dopo esce Slow Jamz, ballata in cui Kanye canta accompagnato dalle metriche velocissime del rapper di Chicago Twista, il pezzo viene inserito come brano anche nell'LP di quest'ultimo, dal titolo Kamikaze.
Il terzo singolo è Jesus Walks, accompagnato da tre diversi tipi di video. L'immagine che la canzone suggerisce è profonda ed introspettiva: Gesù cammina al fianco di ognuno di noi, lui può cambiare la nostra vita se noi abbiamo fiducia. Dopo l'album esce The College Dropout DVD, seguito dal remix del singolo The New Workout Plan, con Lil'Jon e Fonzworth Bentley.
Kanye fonda anche una propria etichetta, la Very Good Music, affiancato da Common. Le nuove leve della label sono John Legend, GLC e Consequence di cui Kanye produce Take 'Em To The Cleaners, LP di debutto.
Nel 2005, dopo appena un anno dal primo album, esce Late Registration, secondo lavoro in proprio di Kanye. Col primo singolo Gold Digger Kanye si mette subito in mostra come nuova icona dell'hip hop, e il successo riscosso è tale da fargli vincere il grammy award del 2006 come miglior album rap. Per il tour dell'album Kanye West è venuto anche in Italia, regalando ai fan italiani grandi emozioni in un concerto all'Alcatraz di Milano.
[modifica] 2007–09: Graduation e 808s & Heartbreak
Nel settembre 2007 esce il suo terzo LP: Graduation, in contemporanea a Curtis, LP di 50 Cent. Fra i due nei mesi precedenti ci sono stati vari battibecchi a causa della stessa scelta per l'uscita dei due LP; in questa sfida discografica, fin dai primi dati, ha la meglio Kanye West con un ottimo margine sul collega.
Dopo questa soddisfazione però arriva la nota dolente: il 10 novembre muore la madre Donda, a causa di una complicazione a seguito di un intervento di chirurgia estetica. Alla madre aveva dedicato la canzone Hey Mama in Late Registration, cantata ai Grammy Awards 2008.
Il 7 settembre 2008 Kanye si esibisce agli MTV VMA 2008 con il suo nuovo singolo Love Lockdown, pezzo del nuovo album 808's & Heartbreak, che uscirà il 16 dicembre sotto la sua stessa casa discografica, la GOOD Music. Il singolo verrà ufficialmente estratto il 7 ottobre 2008. Ma qualche giorno dopo i VMA, esattamente l'11 settembre, West viene arrestato all'aeroporto di Los Angeles con l'accusa di vandalismo per aver aggredito un paparazzo che lo stava fotografando. Nel frattempo un altro paparazzo stava riprendendo la scena che si è subito diffusa in Internet.
L'8 aprile 2009 esce la puntata di South Park che lo vede protagonista: di Kanye West vengono messe in luce la natura violenta, connessa con probabilità all'episodio del paparazzo e schernito l'egocentrismo che lo porta a definirsi spesse volte "un genio" e "la voce di una generazione".
È presidente della casa discografica da lui fondata, la GOOD Music. GOOD sta per Getting Out Of Our Dreams. Ne fanno parte molti rapper di Chicago, tra cui Common e Lupe Fiasco.
