I Want You Lyrics

It's crazy how your heart just has a mind of it's own, yeah, yeah
Like when it smiled and makes the choice on it's own, mhm
Well the funny thing about this heart of mine
It knows what it wants
But see the crazy thing is
My mind tries to deny it
But girl I can't fight what I know, I know
I Want You baby, you
I want you baby, you

Before I met you girl I never knew my heart could dance, hey, hey
Yeah, listen
I was just a broken record of one night stands
Until you came along, with your beautiful song
You saved me, you saved me, you saved me
And now the funny thing about it
There's no melody without it
I found music when I found you
So hear me when I say
I want you baby, you
I want you baby, you

See I've waited all my life
For someone like you, someone like you, whoa
And nobody, nobody, nobody else will do
Because I want you baby, you
I want you baby, you, you
Hey, yeah, you baby, yeah
I want you, I want you, nobody but you baby
Yeah, baby you, nobody but you girl, you
I want you baby, nobody but you
Nobody but you
I want you, baby
I want you, I want you

I Want You Song Chart

Luke James began his musical career at high school as a member of a R&B trio named Upskale with friends Quinten Spears (known as Q) and Tah. The threesome appeared in Destiny's Child's "Soldier" video but split after graduating. Q and James later formed a duo called not unreasonably Luke & Q. The pair sung background for R&B artist Tyrese but disbanded after not gaining much recognition.

James began to craft his skills as a songwriter, co-penning tunes such as Britney Spears' "Kill the Lights," Chris Brown's "Crawl" and Justin Bieber's "That Should Be Me." Beyoncé remembered the New Orleans born singer-songwriter part in Destiny's Child's visual and she personally chose him appear as a model/actor in her "Run the World (Girls)" music video.

This is the first single from James' debut EP #Luke, which was released as a free digital download. He told The Boombox about the song's inspiration. "I was a dirtbag and I had an epiphany and I realized that this girl that I had been treating bad or just not giving her what she needed," he admitted. "I realized I really wanted to give her what she needs and love her and want to be with her."

The song received universal acclaim from critics and it earned James a Best R&B Performance nomination at the 2012 Grammy Awards. (He lost to Usher's "Climax").

Complete Control Lyrics

They said release 'Remote Control'
But we didn't want it on the label
They said, "Fly to Amsterdam"
The people laughed but the press went mad

Ooh ooh ooh someone's really smart
Ooh ooh ooh Complete Control, that's a laugh

On the last tour my mates couldn't get in
I'd open up the back door but they'd get run out again
At every hotel we was met by the Law
Come for the party - come to make sure!

Ooh ooh ooh have we done something wrong?
Ooh ooh ooh complete control, even over this song

They said we'd be artistically free
When we signed that bit of paper
They meant let's make a lotsa mon-ee
An' worry about it later

Ooh ooh ooh I'll never understand
Ooh ooh ooh complete control - lemme see your other hand!

All over the news spread fast
They're dirty, they're filthy
They ain't gonna last!

This is Joe Public speaking
I'm controlled in the body, controlled in the mind

Total
See-o-n control - that means you!

Complete Control Song Chart

Mick Jones and Joe Strummer wrote this about their record company's heavy-handed management. It chronicles how The Clash signed a contract and immediately lost control of their music.

The Clash were upset that CBS made them release a song called "Remote Control" as a single, and came up with this as retaliation. So in the UK in 1977, The Clash released a single they didn't like followed by another one (this) that ridiculed the decision to release the previous one. From that point on, The Clash went to great measures to get control of how their music was distributed.

This was the band's first album, but their record company would not release it in the US. This was yet another decision The Clash disagreed with.

The anti-establishment statements The Clash made on this song gave them a lot of credibility with their fans. As punk was ending, many bands were either fading away or changing their style, which was seen as selling out. The Clash managed to stay true to their values and gained a great deal of respect by doing so.

In the US, this album sold about 100,000 copies as an import, making it the biggest-selling import album of the '70s.

Mick Jones wrote most of the song, despite the fact it's credited as a Strummer/Jones joint composition. Joe Strummer ad libbed the "You're my guitar hero" and "This is Joe Public Speaking!" bits, and was so proud of Jones' efforts that except for a reference to a disastrous promotional trip to Amsterdam, he declared them finished.

This was not included in the original UK release of The Clash in 1977. When the album was released in the US in 1979, this was one of five songs added.

The Clash recorded the song at Sarn East Studios in Whitechapel in August of 1977, and it was drummer Topper Headon's first recording with the band since he replaced Terry Chimes earlier that year. It was produced by Jamaican producer Lee "Scratch" Perry, and it's up for dispute just how much he contributed to the sound - engineer Micky Foote claimed that "he was s--t hot - he nearly blew the control room up," whereas Jones claims that "we went back and fiddled about with it. It was good what Lee did, but his echo sounded underwater to us. We brought out the guitars and made it sound tougher."

The title came from a conversation the Clash's manager Bernie Rhodes had with Sex Pistols manager Malcolm McLaren. Joe Strummer noted in a 1991 interview that "Bernie and Malcolm got together and decided they wanted to control their groups... Bernie had a meeting in the Ship in Soho, after the Anarchy Tour. He said he wanted complete control. I came out of the pub with Paul (Simonon) collapsing on the pavement in hysterics at those words."

This was first played live, along with "Clash City Rockers," at Mont de Marsan in August 1977 on their European tour, and remained a firm fan favorite until the end of their career - first as a set opener, then as the first song of the encore. A live version of the song played in New York in June 1981 is the opening track on the live compilation album From Here to Eternity.

A bizarre cover version of the song by Kowalskis appears on the 1999 tribute album Backlash.

Dear Future Husband Lyrics

Dear Future Husband
Here's a few things
You'll need to know if you wanna be
My one and only all my life

Take me on a date
I deserve a break
And don't forget the flowers every anniversary
'Cause if you'll treat me right
I'll be the perfect wife
Buying groceries
Buy-buying what you need

You got that 9 to 5
But, baby, so do I
So don't be thinking I'll be home and baking apple pies
I never learned to cook
But I can write a hook
Sing along with me
Sing-sing along with me (Hey)

You gotta know how to treat me like a lady
Even when I'm acting crazy
Tell me everything's alright

Dear future husband
Here's a few things you'll need to know if you want to be
My one and only all my life
Dear future husband
If you wanna get that special lovin'
Tell me I'm beautiful each and every night

After every fight
Just apologize
And maybe then I'll let you try and rock my body right
Even if I was wrong
You know I'm never wrong
Why disagree?
Why, why disagree?

You gotta know how to treat me like a lady
Even when I'm acting crazy
Tell me everything's alright

Dear future husband
Here's a few things
You'll need to know if you want to be
My one and only all my life (Hey, baby)
Dear future husband
Make time for me
Don't leave me lonely
And know we'll never see your family more than mine

I'll be sleeping on the left side of the bed (Hey)
Open doors for me and you might get some kisses
Don't have a dirty mind
Just be a classy guy
Buy me a ring
Buy-buy me a ring, babe

You gotta know how to treat me like a lady
Even when I'm acting crazy
Tell me everything's alright

Dear future husband
Here's a few things
You'll need to know if you want to be
My one and only all my life
Dear future husband
If you wanna get that special loving
Tell me I'm beautiful each and every night

Future husband, better love me right

Dear Future Husband Song Chart

This song finds Meghan speaking up for how she deserves to be treated by a beau. We hear her listing requirements to a future husband that include "flowers every anniversary." "Open doors for me" and, "Don't have a dirty mind." "Girls need to be treated better. I never got that growing up," she told Billboard magazine. "In high school, I didn't date awesome dudes."

Meghan told The Columbus Dispatch that the harmonies driving the '50s style of this song owe a little to Gary U.S. Bonds' "Quarter To Three."

Meghan revealed to The Miami Herald that the song's subject matter was inspired by an ongoing joke between her and her father that Meghan's future husband is out there somewhere, "chilling."

The song's music video was conceptualized by Fatima Robinson, who previously directed Trainor's clip for "All About That Bass." The video features Charlie Puth as the guy she chooses. Meghan returned the favor by duetting with the singer-songwriter on his debut single, "Marvin Gaye."

Several viewers criticised the video, accusing it of being anti-feminist. Trainor completely disagrees with that assessment. "Just surprised the random places people are asking me if I was being sexist," she told MTV News. "But no, I don't believe I was. I think I was just writing my song to my future husband out there, wherever he is. He's chilling right now, taking a minute getting ready for me; it's going to be great."

Message in a Bottle Song Chart

This song is about a guy stranded on a remote island. One day he finds a bottle, puts a message in it and throws it out to sea in hopes that someone will find it and come save him. The lyrics can be seen as a metaphor for being lonely and realizing there are lots of people just like you. (thanks, Sid - Bryson City, NC)

Sting (from 1000 UK #1 Hits by Jon Kutner and Spencer Leigh): "I think the lyrics are subtle and well crafted enough to hit people on a different level from something you just sing along to. It's quite a cleverly put together metaphor. It develops and has an artistic shape to it." Guitarist Andy Summers said it was the best track he ever played on.

Until they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, this was the last song The Police played together. After breaking up in 1986, they performed it at Sting's wedding to Trudie Styler in 1992. Sting, Stewart Copeland, and Andy Summers were all a little drunk and didn't play it very well, but the guests loved it. In 2003, The Police got together again for the induction ceremonies, where they played this along with "Roxanne" and "Every Breath You Take."

This was the first UK #1 hit for The Police. Their first two albums were much bigger in their native England than in the US.

Sting wrote in Lyrics By Sting: "I was pleased that I'd managed a narrative song with a beginning, a middle, and some kind of philosophical resolution in the final verse. If I'd been a more sophisticated songwriter, I would have probably illuminated this change of mood by modulating the third verse into a different key. But it worked anyway."

This was the first single from the second Police album, Reggatta De Blanc (which means "White Reggae"). The single was released shortly before the album came out.

The first person to hear the guitar riff for this song was not a person at all, but Sting's dog. "I used to play it over and over again to my dog in our basement flat in Bayswater," Sting wrote in Lyrics By Sting, "and he would stare at me with that look of hopeless resignation dogs can have when they're waiting for their walk in the park. Was it that hopeless look that provoked the idea of the island castaway and his bottle? I don't know, but the song sounded like a hit the first time we played it. The dog finally got his walk, and this song was our first number-one in the UK."

This was the first ever UK #1 for the A&M label, which Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss founded in 1962.

The Police boxed set is called Message In A Box as a reference to this song.

This is on the soundtrack to the 1982 movie The Secret Policeman's Other Ball.

Sting performed this with No Doubt at halftime of the 2003 Super Bowl between the Bucs and Raiders. No Doubt lead singer Gwen Stefani came out and sang with him about midway through. Stefani inducted Police into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame later that year.

Industrial metal band Machinehead covered this on their 1999 album The Burning Red (thanks, Torbjørn - Trondheim, Norway)

There is a 1999 film by the same name starring Kevin Costner, Robin Wright Penn, and Paul Newman that is not directly connected to this song. (thanks, Mike - Mountlake Terrace, WA)

It may surprise you to learn that the song was influenced by the church music that Sting used to sing as a child. He explained in Isle of Noises by Daniel Rachel: "I used to sing Gregorian chants and plainsong as an altar boy. A lot of my melodies might reflect that love and my early exposure to that stark, melodic narrative. 'Message In A Bottle' reflects that, too."

This was used on several TV shows, including Ballykissangel, in the 1996 episode "Fallen Angel"; in Doctors, in the 2011 episode "Message in a Bottle"; and in The Office (US), in the 2007 episode "Phyllis' Wedding."

Mr. MTV Song Chart

Nothing More bassist Daniel Oliver explained this song's meaning: "It points out the fact that there are people that make money, and their sole job is to change your mind and your behavior, for whatever they want," he said. "And I do think there's an evil in that alone, let alone when you combine it with something that's supremely wrapped around vanity and things like that, where you have kids whose self image is based on television and not based on the family system."

"Or you see relationships being based off sex and lust and no longer about a personal connection between two people," Oliver added. "'Cause a lot of times, it seems like people are kind of sold a personal connection in themselves and in anything for just some menial bullcrap they see on TV."

The song starts off with a sample of the "I want my MTV" line from Dire Straits "Money For Nothing."

Peaceful World Lyrics

Come on baby take a ride with me
I'm up from Indiana down to Tennessee
Everything is as cool as can be
In a Peaceful World

People know this world is a wreck
We're sick and tired of being politically correct
If I see through it now but I didn't at first
The hypocrites made it worse and worse
Lookin' down their noses at what people say
These are just words and words are okay
It's what you do and not what you say
If you're not part of the future then get out of the way

Come on baby take a ride with me
I'm up from Indiana down to Tennessee
Everything is cool as can be
In a peaceful world

Racism lives in the USA today
Better get hip to what Martin Luther King had to say
I don't want my kids being brought up this way
Hatred to each other is not okay
Well I'm not a preacher just a singer son
But I can see more work to be done
It's what you do and not what you say
If you're not part of the future then get out of the way

Come on baby take a ride with me
I'm up from Indiana down to Tennessee
Everything is cool as can be
In a peaceful world

The money's good and the work is okay
Looks like everything is rollin our way
"Til you gotta look the devil in the eye
You know that bastard's one big lie
So be careful with your heart and what you love
Make sure that it was sent from above
It's what you do and not what you say
If you're not part of the future then get out of the way

Come on baby take a ride with me
I'm up from Indiana down to Tennessee
Everything is cool as can be
In a peaceful world

Lay back the top and ride with me
I'm up from Indiana down to Tennessee
Everything is cool as can be
In a peaceful world

Hey yeah

Peaceful World Song Chart

This is a duet with the female Soul singer India.Arie, whose career was just getting started. She flew to Bloomington, Indiana to record this with Mellencamp after appearing on The Oprah Winfrey Show in Chicago to promote her first album, Acoustic Soul.

The song deals with issues of race. Mellencamp has often brought up the subject, including in lyrics about a black man in "Pink Houses," and a white girl dancing with a black man in the video for "Cherry Bomb." In "Peaceful World," the message is much more overt, as India.Arie sings: "Racism lives in the US today."

The song was first played during the 2001 Indy 500 in a commercial for the Indy Racing League (IRL). India.Arie was not on the version in the commercial.

It became the official song of the Indy Racing League. Mellencamp's wife, model Elaine Irwin-Mellencamp, was a spokeswoman for the racing league.

This was released about a month before the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in America. With members of his band singing some of the lines with him, Mellencamp performed the song at the 2001 "Concert For New York," a benefit for victims of the World Trade Center disaster. The song fit the mood of the country at the time, as it explores some of the problems America faces in the verses but resolves with a hopeful chorus: "Everything is cool as can be in a peaceful world."

Mellencamp contributed a live, acoustic version of this to the Columbia Records compilation CD God Bless America, which was released as a benefit for the Twin Towers Fund.

The song got decent airplay, but could only bubble under on the Hot 100, peaking at #104. Mellencamp attributed this poor chart showing to a lack of promotion by his label, Columbia Records, and to a bias against older artists in the industry. In the '80s, most of Mellencamp's singles became at least minor hits, but by the '00s he found himself out of favor in the industry, even though he felt he was doing some of his best work. For his 2006 single "Our Country," he allowed the song to be used in a car commercial as a way of getting it heard, since he knew radio stations would ignore it.

Rainbow Song Chart

Robert Plant interpolates on the bridge of this psychedelic tune a couplet from Love is Enough, a poem by Victorian writer-designer William Morris.

Longtime Plant inspiration William Morris (1834-96) is considered the progenitor of the fantasy fiction genre thanks to his revival of medieval texts.

Morris' passion for the medieval also fed his unique style of domestic interior decoration and in 1861 he co-founded a decorative arts company in partnership with the artist Edward Burne-Jones, and the poet and artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti. The firm provided a complete home design service to their clients dedicated to the principles of medieval craftsmanship. Morris did this in order to counter the mass-produced works of the Industrial Revolution. The firm became highly fashionable and had a profound influence on the decoration of houses into the early 20th century.

Two different versions were recorded. One version appears on Kid A, the other ("Morning Bell/Amnesiac") appears on Amnesiac. Both albums were recorded simultaneously, but Kid A was released first.

Lead singer Thom Yorke recorded this into a mini-disc player, but lost the song and forgot about it when the mini-disc got zapped in a lightning storm. Five months later Yorke woke up after a long flight and remembered the song.

At a show in Israel on July 9, 2000, Yorke said: "This is a song about forgetting who you are, em, or anything about yourself, and then waking you up, one day, and looking yourself in the mirror, and remembering... and freaking out." (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)

Dangerous Lyrics

Rainbow Song Chart

The lead single from Rumer's Into Colour album takes the singer in a disco direction. Lyrically it addresses her initial reluctance to return to music after the release of her covers album Boys Don't Cry in 2012. "I had so much resistance to going back into writing and performing publicly again that I realised I wasn't going to be able to break through it until I literally wrote a song about the resistance itself," Rumer said. "We worked it into a love song, and the emotion just felt naturally disco in theme."

Rumer told The Independent this song "is about overcoming fears of being hurt."

Rumer wrote the song with Rob Shirakbari, an Arkansas composer/arranger/musician whom she met when she relocated to Los Angeles after the release of Boys Don't Cry.

In the Anthony Byrne-directed music video, Rumer portrays a dancer-turned-studio manager of a ballet company who pines for one of its top male stars. Her fear of admitting her feelings is only matched by her fear of dancing, a career that was cut short by a debilitating injury. Will confronting her demons set her free, or is it too "Dangerous"?

Byrne is known for his work as a director of UK TV series like Upstairs Downstairs, Mr Selfridge and Ripper Street.

Lead singer Thom Yorke was drunk and improvising when he recorded the vocals. The band came to the studio after drinking a lot of wine, and Yorke lied on the floor and sang. He did only one take.

The original title was "Planet Xerox," but Xerox is a copyrighted name and would have caused problems if they used it.

The album title refers to a condition divers get when they come to the surface too fast. It is a commentary on Radiohead's sudden fame.

The drums in this song were cut up from different parts of other songs from the sessions for the album. (thanks, Charlie - Stittstown, Canada)

Yorke: "The product of a single sex education, romantic novels and art college." (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)

Nobody Praying For Me Lyrics

I'm a whisper lost upon wind
I'm the ember that'll burn you down
I'm the water that'll drown you
I'm a star that's just a black hole now
I'm a terrifying danger
I'm a fruit decaying on the ground
I'm a swallower of anger
I'm the tree that falls that makes no sound
I make no sound

'Cause if I stand up, I break my bones
Everybody loves to see it fall unfold
Ain't nobody giving up
Cause nobody gives a fuck
Stand up, and break my bones
Everybody wants what they just can't hold
There's Nobody Praying For Me

I am fungus in the forest
I'm a lizard with a poisoned tongue
I'm the child in the manger
I'm the one who sacrificed his son
Rust is showing on my armor
I am lazing like an old man done
I'm a product of my anger
I'm the bullet in a loaded gun

Stand up, I break my bones
Everybody loves to see it fall unfold
Ain't nobody giving up
'Cause nobody gives a fuck
Stand up, and break my bones
Everybody wants what they just can't hold
There's nobody praying for me

If I stand up, I break my bones
Everybody loves to see it fall unfold
Ain't nobody giving up
'Cause nobody gives a fuck
Stand up, break my bones
Everybody wants what they just can't hold
There's nobody praying for me

(There's nobody praying for me)
There's nobody praying for me

Nobody Praying For Me Song Chart

Seether frontman Shaun Morgan had this song's chorus way before he came up with the verse. "I struggled with that verse," he told Artist Direct . "I thought the chorus had a good melody, and I liked what the chorus was saying at the beginning. I had about three or four different verse ideas, and I eventually settled on the one it has now."

"I had the melody and music ideas at the same time," he added. "That usually doesn't happen very often. I think I was in the shower, and I started singing it. I went upstairs to my studio and began writing it. It came out pretty quickly, and I was happy with the result. I knew it was a good chorus so I had to write a verse that would complement it. Sometimes, it works that way. It's not always that the verse comes first and is followed by a chorus. Quite often, the chorus comes first, and I have to think, 'How can I make a verse that matches that?' That was an interesting one to write. I think it would be one of my favorites on the album."

Like Spinning Plates Lyrics

While you make pretty speeches,
I'm being cut to shreds
You feed me to the lions,
a delicate balance

And this just feels Like Spinning Plates
I'm living in cloud cuckoo land
And this just feels like spinning plates
My body is floating down the muddy river

Like Spinning Plates Song Chart

This has the melody of another, unreleased Radiohead song called "I Will" run in reverse.

Thom Yorke sang this backwards because he thought it sounded too uncomfortable the regular way. His tracks were then reversed and added on, resulting in the lyrics sung backward, then forward.

The album was recorded at the same time as Kid A, but released shortly after.

"Cloudcuckooland" is a reference to the ancient Greek comedy/satire The Birds by Aristophanes. It is a city built by birds to escape the frantic aspects of normal human civilization (in the case of the play, Athens).
