Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1969 or 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, and actress. She rose to prominence after the release of the first single taken from her eponymous debut album in 1990, "Vision of Love". More than two decades later, Rolling Stone defined the song as an influence on "virtually every other female R&B singer since the nineties". Mariah Carey produced four chart-topping singles in the US and began what would become a string of commercially successful albums which solidified the singer as Columbia's highest selling act. Carey and Boyz II Men spent a record sixteen weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100 with "One Sweet Day", which remains the longest-running number-one song in US chart history. Following a contemptuous divorce from Sony Music head Tommy Mottola, Carey adopted a new image and traversed towards R&B with the release of Butterfly (1997). In 1998, she was honored as the world's best-selling recording artist of the 1990s at the World Music Awards and subsequently named the best-selling female artist of the millennium in 2000.
Adam Richard Wiles (born 17 January 1984), better known by his stage name Calvin Harris, is a Scottish DJ, singer, songwriter, record producer, recording artist and remixer. His debut album, I Created Disco, was released in 2007 and was the precursor to his top-10 singles "Acceptable in the 80s" and "The Girls". In 2009, Harris released his second studio album, Ready for the Weekend, which debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart and earned a gold certification from the British Phonographic Industry within two months of release. Its lead single, "I'm Not Alone", became his first number one on the UK Singles Chart.
Harris rose to international prominence in 2012 with the release of his third studio album, 18 Months. Topping the UK charts, the album became his first to chart on the Billboard 200 in the US, reaching number 19. All eight of the album's singles; "Bounce", "Let's Go", "We'll Be Coming Back", "Sweet Nothing", "Drinking from the Bottle", "I Need Your Love", "Thinking About You" and "Feel So Close", along with "We Found Love" reached the top 10 of the UK Singles Chart.
Verse1
I burned for you
broke bread with you
I even gave you all my loot
At home for you
no calls from you
I feel like you
done worked a root
I took the bull
You took your time
Made love to me
You blew my mind
I pulled from you
You got me high
It's over now
and I'll tell you why
Hook
I know what love is
I know what love is
I know what love is
Love Love Love Love
Verse 2
I cared for you
I cried for you
I let you meet
my mama too
All lies from you
Broken in two
Wanted to leave
I stayed for you
So fool for you
On pause for you
Said it was love
Now what's the truth?
Confused by you
You're attitude
These silly games
You're changing moods
Hook
I know what love is
I know what love is
I know what love is
Love Love Love Love
I know I
I know I
I know I
I know I
Love Is
Love Is
Bridge:
Yeah Yeah Yeah Oh Yeah
Well I'm Frontin and I'm Grinning
But I really can't take no more
Vamp:
You don't call me anymore
It's really such a bore
Alone I am sleeping
but if love is such a chore
Then baby please ignore
