Britney Jean Spears (born December 2, 1981) is an American recording artist and entertainer. Born in McComb, Mississippi, and raised in Kentwood, Louisiana, Spears began performing as a child, landing acting roles in stage productions and television shows. She signed with Jive Records in 1997 and released her debut album ...Baby One More Time in 1999, which became the best-selling album by a teenage solo artist. During her first decade in the music industry, she became a prominent figure in mainstream popular music and popular culture, followed by a much-publicized personal life. Her first two albums established her as a pop icon and broke sales records, while title tracks "...Baby One More Time" and "Oops!... I Did It Again" became international number-one hits. Spears was credited with influencing the revival of teen pop during the late 1990s, and became the 'best-selling teen aged artist of all time' before she turned 20, garnering her the honorific title of "Princess of Pop".
Dimitri from Paris (born Dimitris Yerasimos in October 1963) is a French music producer and DJ of Greek origins. His musical influences are rooted in 1970s funk and disco sounds that spawned contemporary house music, as well as original soundtracks from 50s and 60s cult movies such as Breakfast at Tiffany's, La Dolce Vita and The Party, which were sampled in his album Sacrebleu. Dimitri fused these sounds with electro and block party hip hop he discovered in the 80s.
Contrary to his musical pseudonym, Dimitri was born not in Paris but in Istanbul, Turkey. Born in Turkey to Greek parents, Dimitri grew up in France where he discovered DJing at home, using whatever he could find to "cut and paste" samples from disco hits heard on the radio, blending them together to make tapes. This early experimentation helped him launch his DJ career.
He started out by DJ'ing at the French station Radio 7, before moving on to Skyrock and finally to Radio NRJ, Europe's largest FM radio network, in 1986. There, he introduced the first ever house music show to be broadcast in France, while simultaneously producing runway soundtracks for fashion houses such as Chanel, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Hermès and Yves Saint-Laurent. He also released two solo EPs from 1993 to 1994, and contributed to the Yellow Productions compilation La Yellow 357.
Oh, well, I?ve seen you around all those dark corners
Oh, where the shattered glass shines like stars
Oh, where those boys will be girls and those girls will be for hire
I swear they?re all strung out on those boulevards

She said, just give me a chance, give me a chance
She said, just give me a chance to explain
She said, just give me a chance, give me a chance
You come on over, we?ll make it right
We?ll lay it down then we?ll kill the lights
You come on over, we?ll make it right
We?ll lay it down then we?ll kill the lights, yeah
Oh, with those curtains drawn, you know that she?s so pretty
Oh, from those years of living in her car
Oh, in her soul there?s a country but her body?s a city
Oh, where those freeways aren?t free at all
She said, just give me a chance to explain
She said, just give me a chance, give me a chance
She said, just give me a chance to explain
She said, just give me a chance, give me a chance
You come on over, we?ll make it right
We?ll lay it down then we?ll kill the lights
You come on over, we?ll make it right
We?ll lay it down then we?ll kill the lights
You come on over, we?ll make it right
We?ll lay it down then we?ll kill the lights
You come on over, we?ll make it right
We?ll lay it down then we?ll kill the lights
You come on over, we?ll make it right
We?ll lay it down then we?ll kill the lights
And you, you can tell me what to do, you can tell me what to say
And you, you can tell me what to do, you can tell me what to say
You come on over, we?ll make it right
