Οι στίχοι

I always dreamed that I’d find somebody like you
We’re drowning
In orchid arrangements
Dresses and pastries
What if it’s raining, yeah?
Is this what we’ve been dreaming of?
It’s crowded with families and agents
Room reservations
Which destination
Paps helicopters
Event of the ages
Caught in the matrix
Then you whispered in my ear
Said let’s get out of here
We can disappear tonight
What about a
Midnight trip to Vegas
Just me and you baby
Throw the kids in the back
Of the pink Cadillac
And us in the bathroom changing
Midnight trip to Vegas
Both our hearts are racin’
I’ll pick you up late
We don’t have to wait
Yeah let’s do something crazy
Woohoo woohoo woohoo ooo
Woohoo woohoo woohoo ooo
We could be driving right now
20 miles into the desert by now
Your hand on my thigh
Laughin’ ’til we cry
Didn’t tell a soul ’bout how it’s goin’ down tonight
Top down singing Freddie Mercury
Waiting in the line at the DMV
“Just married” on the window
So glad that we could keep it simple
Then I whispered in your ear
I’m so glad we’re here
Dancing with our fears tonight
On a Midnight trip to Vegas
Just me and you baby
Throw the kids in the back
Of the pink Cadillac
And us in the bathroom changin’
Midnight trip to Vegas
Both our hearts are racin’
I’ll pick you up late
We don’t have to wait
Yeah let’s do something crazy
Woohoo woohoo woohoo ooo
Woohoo woohoo woohoo ooo
I always dreamed that I’d find somebody like you
What about a
Midnight trip to Vegas
Just me and you baby
Throw the kids in the back
Of the pink Cadillac
And us in the bathroom changing
Midnight trip to Vegas
Both our hearts are racin’
I’ll pick you up late
We don’t have to wait
Yeah let’s do something crazy
Woohoo woohoo woohoo ooo
Woohoo woohoo woohoo ooo

H Taylor Swift για τον Harry Styles

Η Taylor Swift έχει γράψει πολλά τραγούδια για πολλούς διάσημους ανθρώπους στη ζωή της, αλλά σπάνια παραδέχεται ανοιχτά ποιος ενέπνευσε ποιο hit της. Στην περίπτωση του I Knew You Were Trouble φαίνεται ότι της ξέφυγε στους Sunday Times ότι το έγραψε για τον Harry Styles, μετά τα Brit Awards 2013 όπου εκείνη τραγούδησε παρουσία του.

«Λοιπόν, δεν είναι δύσκολο να μπεις σε αυτό το συναίσθημα όταν ο άνθρωπος για τον οποίο γράφτηκε το τραγούδι είναι στο πλάι της σκηνής και σε παρακολουθεί», είχε πει. Μάντεψε ποιος ήταν στο πλάι της σκηνής; Ο Harry Styles.

Οι δυο τους ήταν ζευγάρι για λίγους μήνες το 2012 και χώρισαν το 2013.

Οι στίχοι

Once upon a time
A few mistakes ago
I was in your sights
You got me alone
You found me
You found me
You found me
I guess you didn’t care
And I guess I liked that
And when I fell hard
You took a step back
Without me
Without me
Without me
And he’s long gone
When he’s next to me
And I realize
The blame is on me
Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I’d never been
‘Til you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So, shame on me now
Flew me to places I’d never been
Now I’m lyin’ on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
No apologies
He’ll never see you cry
Pretends he doesn’t know
That he’s the reason why
You’re drowning
You’re drowning
You’re drowning
And I heard you moved on
From whispers on the street
A new notch in your belt
Is all I’ll ever be
And now I see
Now I see
Now I see
He was long gone
When he met me
And I realize
The joke is on me, hey
I knew you were trouble when you walked in (oh)
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I’d never been
Til you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I’d never been, yeah
Now I’m lyin’ on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh (yeah)
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
And the saddest fear
Comes creepin’ in
That you never loved me
Or her
Or anyone
Or anything
Yeah
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I’d never been (never been)
Til you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in (knew it right there)
So shame on me now (knew it right there)
Flew me to places I’d never been
(Ooh) now I’m lyin’ on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble (oh)
Oh, oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble

Ο Justin Timberlake για τη Britney Spears και τούμπαλιν

Το 2002 ο Justin Timberlake κυκλοφόρησε το τραγούδι Cry me a river, μετά τον χωρισμό του από την Britney Spears. Παρόλο που ο μουσικός δεν έχει επιβεβαίωσει ότι το τραγούδι γράφτηκε για το τέλος της σχέσης τους, δεν το έχει διαψεύσει κιόλας. Η Britney Spears του απάντησε το 2004 με το τραγούδι Everytime. Και σε αυτή την περίπτωση, επιβεβαίωση ή διάψευση δεν έχουμε, αλλά το τραγούδι απάντηση της Britney Spears γράφτηκε την ίδια χρονιά με το Cry me a river ακόμα κι αν κυκλοφόρησε αργότερα και υπάρχουν στίχοι του που απαντούν στους στίχους του τραγουδιού του Justin Timberlake.

Οι στίχοι του Cry me a river

You were my sun
You were my earth
But you didn’t know all the ways I loved you, no
So you took a chance
And made other plans
But I bet you didn’t think that they would come crashing down, no
You don’t have to say, what you did
I already know, I found out from him
Now there’s just no chance
For you and me
There’ll never be
And don’t it make you sad about it?
You told me you love me
Why did you leave me all alone?
Now you tell me you need me
When you call me on the phone
Girl, I refuse
You must have me confused with some other guy
The bridges were burned
Now it’s your turn, to cry
Cry me a river
Cry me a river
Cry me a river
Cry me a river (yeah, yeah)
You know that they say that some things are better left unsaid
And it wasn’t like you only talked to him and you know it
Don’t act like you don’t know it
And all of these things people told me
Keep messin’ with my head (messin’ with my head)
Should’ve picked honesty
Then you may not have blown it (yeah)
You don’t have to say (don’t have to say)
What you did (what you did)
I already know (I already know)
I found out from him (uh)
Now there’s just no chance (no chance)
For you and me (you and me)
There’ll never be
Don’t it make you sad about it?
You told me you love me
Why did you leave me all alone (all alone)
Now you tell me you need me
When you call me on the phone (when you call me on the phone)
Girl, I refuse
You must have me confused with some other guy (I’m not like them baby)
The bridges were burned
Now it’s your turn (it’s your turn) to cry
So cry me a river (go on and just)
Cry me a river (go on and just)
Cry me a river (baby, go on and just)
Cry me a river (yeah, yeah)

Oh (oh!)
The damage is done, so I guess I be, leaving
You don’t have to say (you don’t have to say)
What you did (what you did)
I already know (I already know)
I found out from him (uh)
Now there’s just no chance (no chance)
For you and me (you and me)
There’ll never be
Don’t it make you sad about it?

Οι στίχοι του Everytime

Notice me
Take my hand
Why are we
Strangers when
Our love is strong?
Why carry on without me?
And every time I try to fly I fall
Without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And every time I see
You in my dreams
I see your face
It’s haunting me
I guess I need you baby
I make-believe
That you are here
It’s the only way
That I see clear
What have I done?
You seem to move on easy
And every time I try to fly I fall
Without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And every time I see
You in my dreams
I see your face
You’re haunting me
I guess I need you baby
I may have made it rain
Please forgive me
My weakness caused you pain
And this song’s my sorry
At night I pray
That soon your face will fade away
And every time I try to fly I fall
Without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And every time I see
You in my dreams
I see your face
You’re haunting me
I guess I need you baby

O John Legend για την Chrissy Teigen

O John Legend έχει επιβεβαιώσει ότι η σύζυγός του, Chrissy Teigen είναι το “me” του τραγουδιού All of me. Η ίδια έχει αποκαλύψει στην εκπομπή του Jimmy Fallon ότι έχει ακούσει τόσο πολλές φορές το τραγούδι που δεν συγκινείται πια αν παίξει και το ακούσει, ακόμα κι αν όλοι γύρω της περιμένουν να το κάνει. Δύσκολη η ζωή της μούσας.

Οι στίχοι

What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You’ve got my head spinning, no kidding, I can’t pin you down
What’s going on in that beautiful mind?
I’m on your magical mystery ride
And I’m so dizzy, don’t know what hit me, but I’ll be alright
My head’s under water
But I’m breathing fine
You’re crazy and I’m out of my mind
Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I’ll give my all to you
You’re my end and my beginning
Even when I lose, I’m winning
Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh-oh
How many times do I have to tell you?
Even when you’re crying, you’re beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I’m around through every mood
You’re my downfall, you’re my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can’t stop singing, it’s ringing in my head for you
My head’s under water
But I’m breathing fine
You’re crazy and I’m out of my mind
Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I’ll give my all to you
You’re my end and my beginning
Even when I lose, I’m winning
Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh-oh
Give me all of you, oh
Cards on the table, we’re both showing hearts
Risking it all, though it’s hard
‘Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I’ll give my all to you
You’re my end and my beginning
Even when I lose, I’m winning
Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you
I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh-oh

Η Mariah Carey για τον Eminem και vice versa

H Mariah Carey δεν έκρυψε ποτέ ότι το τραγούδι της Obsessed του 2009 είναι για τον ράπερ Eminem. Μάλιστα έβαλε κάποιον ντυμένο σαν αυτόν στο video clip του τραγουδιού. Ο Eminem επίσης δεν μίλησε με τα πιο κολακευτικά λόγια για τη Mariah Carey στο τραγούδι του Bagpipes From Baghdad.

Η κόντρα μεταξύ τους λέγεται ότι ξεκίνησε όταν δημοσιεύματα του 2001 τους ήθελαν να είναι ζευγάρι, μία φήμη που η Mariah Carey αρνήθηκε σθεναρά.

Οι στίχοι του Obsessed

And I was like, “Why you so obsessed with me?”
So oh oh, so oh oh
So oh oh, so oh oh
So oh oh, so oh oh…
Will the real MC please step to the mic?
MC, you need an MC, place to be
MC the MC
All up in the blogs
Say we met at the bar
When I don’t even know who you are
Say we up in your house
Sayin’ I’m up in your car
But you in LA and I’m out at Jermaine’s
I’m up in the A- you’re so so lame
And no one here even mentions your name
It must be the weed, it must be the E
‘Cause you be poppin’, hood, you get it pop, pin’
Ooh why you so obsessed with me?
Boy, I want to know! Lyin’ that you’re sexin’ me
When everybody knows it’s clear that you’re upset with me
Ohh finally found a girl that you couldn’t impress
Last man on the Earth still couldn’t hit this
You’re delusional, you’re delusional
Boy, you’re losing your mind
It’s confusin’ yo, you’re confused, you know
Why you wasting your time?
Got you all fired up with your Napoleon complex
See right through you like you’re bathin’ in Windex
Ooh ohh ohh boy, why you so obsessed with me?
And all the ladies sing, all the girls sing
Soo ohhhh, soo ohh obsessed
You on your job, you hatin’ hard
Ain’t gon’ feed you, I’mma let you starve
Gaspin’ for air, I’m ventilation
You out of breath, hope you ain’t waitin’
Tellin’ the world how much you miss me
But we never were so why you trippin’
You a mom and pop, I’m a corporation
I’m the press conference, you a conversation
Ooh why you so obsessed with me?
Boy I want to know… lyin’ that you’re sexin me
When everybody knows it’s clear that you’re upset with me
Ohh finally found a girl that you couldn’t impress
Last man on the Earth still couldn’t hit this
You’re delusional, you’re delusional
Boy, you’re losing your mind
It’s confusin yo, you’re confused you know
Why you wasting your time?
Got you all fired up with your Napoleon complex
See right through you like you’re bathin’ in Windex
Ooh ohh ohh boy, why you so obsessed with me?
And all the ladies sing, all the girls sing
Soo ohhhh, soo ohh obsessed.

Οι στίχοι του Bagpipes from Baghdad

Oh, it’s music to my ears, oh man
How can I describe the way I feel?
Fuckin’ great, man
Okay, let me see
How could I begin?
Locked in Mariah’s wine cellar all I had for lunch
Was bread, wine, more bread, wine, and Captain Crunch
Red wine for breakfast and for brunch
And to soak it up an in between snack, crackers to munch
Mariah, what’s ever happened to us, why did we have to break up?
All I asked for was a glass of punch
You see, I never really asked for much
I can’t imagine what’s going through your mind after such
A nasty breakup with that Latin hunk
Luis Miguel, Nick Cannon better back the fuck up
I’m not playin’, I want her back, you punk
This is Hello Kitty bedspread, Satin Funk
Mixed with Egyptian, with a little rap and punk
Zapp and Eric Clapton, Shaft, Frank Zappa crunk
And yeah, baby, I want another crack at ya
You can beat me with any spatula that you want
I mean, I really want you bad, you cunt
Nick you had your fun
I’ve come to kick you in your sack of junk
Man, I could use a fresh batch of blood
So prepare your vernacular for Dracula acupuncture
Bagpipes from Baghdad
When will it ever cease?
For Pete’s sake, he’s crazy to say the least
Bagpipes from Baghdad
What’s going through my mind?
Half the time, when I rhyme, or blowing up like
Bagpipes from Baghdad
Somebody turn the vacancy sign on
‘Cause I’m gone, blowing on my
Bagpipes from Baghdad
I run the streets and act like a madman holding a Glad
You can be a permanent fixture in my lyrical mixture
I’m the Miracle Whip trickster
My signature sound, when a tube of lipstick’s around
I’m bound to put it on in an instant, wow
Man, what an ensemble, what an assortment of pharma
Ceuticals, this beautiful pill dust in my palm, my
Cuticles get residue just from touching the bottle
Never knew I could remind me so much of my mama
I’ll cut ya like Dahmer, pull a butcher knife on ya
The size of a sword, boy, I’m like the fuckin’ Red Sonja
Get it stuck in your cornea, nice knowin’ ya, Norman
You’re so fuckin’ annoyin’, drop the shovel, boy
You don’t know what the fuck you’re doing
I ain’t playin’ no fuckin’ more
Nick Cannon. you prick, I wish you luck with the fuckin’ whore
Every minute there’s a sucker born
Snuck up on Malachai and made the motherfucker suck on a shuck of corn
Shuck o’, shuck o’ corn, Chaka Khan
Hit Jason in the face with a hockey puck and told him it’s fuckin’ on
Man, what the fuck are you doing?
You’re runnin’ over the snow blower with the lawnmower
Blowin’ on your bagpipes from Baghdad
Bagpipes from Baghdad
When will it ever cease?
For Pete’s sake, he’s crazy to say the least
Bagpipes from Baghdad
What’s going through my mind?
Half the time, when I rhyme, or blowing up like
Bagpipes from Baghdad
Somebody turn the vacancy sign on
‘Cause I’m gone, blowing on my
Bagpipes from Baghdad
I run the streets and act like a madman holding a Glad bag
In the bed with two brain dead lesbian vegetables
I bet you they become heterosexual
Nothing will stop me from molesting you
Titty-fuckin’ you ’til your breast nipple flesh tickles my testicles
Is what they said to the two conjoined twins
How’s it going girlfriends? You needs a boyfriend?
You need some ointment? Just set up an appointment
Who’s gonna see the doctor first? We’ll do a coin flip
I just got my one year sobriety coin chip
When the bad get going, how bad does the going get?
Baby, you shouldn’t have any trouble rubbing groins wit?
Each other, especially when you’re joined at the hip
I’m going to get the needle and thread from the sewing kit
And attempt to separate ’em and stitch ’em back at the loin, shit
Lured the little boy with the chocolate Chips Ahoy! chip
Cookie, lookie, even took me a Polaroid pic
Bagpipes from Baghdad
When will it ever cease?
For Pete’s sake, he’s crazy to say the least
Bagpipes from Baghdad
What’s going through my mind?
Half the time, when I rhyme, or blowing up like
Bagpipes from Baghdad
Somebody turn the vacancy sign on
‘Cause I’m gone, blowing on my
Bagpipes from Baghdad
I run the streets and act like a madman holding a Glad bag
Oh, bagpipes from Baghdad

Η Carly Simon με ένα τραγούδι για 4 διάσημους άντρες

Το τραγούδι της Carly Simon You ‘re so vain είναι γνωστό ότι είναι για έναν από τους διάσημους εραστές της αλλά για ποιον ακριβώς είχε παραμείνει μυστήριο από το 1972 που κυκλοφόρησε.

Η Simon αποκάλυψε στο People ότι το δεύτερο κουπλέ του τραγουδιού της είναι για τον Warren Beatty και τα υπόλοιπα αναφέρονται σε έναν διαφορετικό άντρα από το ερωτικό της παρελθόν. Οι πιθανότητες λοιπόν είναι ότι τα υπόλοιπα κουπλέ απευθύνονται στους διάσημους πρώην της, James Taylor, Mick Jagger και Dan Armstrong.

Οι στίχοι

Son of a gun
You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was apricot
You had one eye in the mirror, as you watched yourself gavotte
And all the girls dreamed that they’d be your partner
They’d be your partner and
You’re so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You’re so vain (you’re so vain)
I bet you think this song is about you
Don’t you don’t you?
You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive
Well you said that we made such a pretty pair and that you would never leave
But you gave away the things you loved
And one of them was me
I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee clouds in my coffee and
You’re so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You’re so vain (you’re so vain)
I bet you think this song is about you
Don’t you don’t you don’t you?
I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee clouds in my coffee and
You’re so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You’re so vain (you’re so vain)
I bet you think this song is about you
Don’t you don’t you?
Well I hear you went up to Saratoga
And your horse naturally won
Then you flew your lear jet up to Nova Scotia
To see the total eclipse of the sun
Well you’re where you should be all the time
And when you’re not, you’re with some underworld spy
Or the wife of a close friend wife of a close friend and
You’re so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You’re so vain (so vain)
I bet you think this song is about you
Don’t you don’t you don’t you?
You’re so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You’re so vain
Probably think this song about you
You’re so vain
