@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
(Do the rudebox
Shake your rudebox
Do the rudebox
Shake your rudebox)
OK then, back to basics
Grab your shell toes and your fat laces
A little hand clap for some funk faces
And make your body move in the following places
Goes up your back and then down your spine
And when it hits your head
OK then, back to bass-heads
Dance like you just won at the Special Olympics
They got the rudebox off the back of a spaceship
So sick I just had to take it
The R-U-D-E-B-O-X
Up your jacksy, split your kecks,
Sing a song of semtex
Pocket full of Durex
Body full of Mandrax
Are we gonna have sex (yes)
Do you wear your knee socks (ohh)
Back to the rudebox
Got this double fantasy
Where we just never stop
I've got one design
And that's to funk you to the top
Know what's on my mind,
It's only one thing you will find
I got one design
And that's to bump you till you drop
Rudebox

Take both pills, f.uck the Matrix
Jack those Jills, shake your Playtex
Rock three stripes, not the Asics
A-D-I-D-A-S old school, 'cause it's the best
(Yes)
TK Maxx cost less
(Yes)
Jackson looks a mess
(Bless)
OK then, what to do
If you try to jack me I'll rudebox you
If you rudebox me I'll rudebox your whole crew
'Cause it's what I do
Ain't that right boo (true)
I'll ride with you
If you can get me to the border
'Cause the sheriff's after me
For what I did to his daughter
I did it like this
(You did it like that)
I love it when you double clap (clap)

OK then, check the tan line
Make your body shape
Like you're stood on a land mine
Call me on my mobile
Not the land line
And jack the main line
At the same time
OK, this is what we do
Got a jam so fresh
It's nice for you
OK, give me what you got
And dial 808
For the bass to drop
OK then, what's the fracas
Grab your cardy
Your lead hat and the bus pass
You don't sweat much
For a fat lass
Grab your rudebox
'Cause your box is righteous
OK bum, rush the show
I got high speed dubbing on my stereo
And all the tunes in the box are the cherrio
I know I told you before,
Did you hear me though
Got this double fantasy

Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
Well, I think it's fantastic! I don't know why people look down on music like this so much, it's catchy and fun with a fantastic bassline and wonderfully trivial/meaningless lyrics, it could only be Robbie. I'm not saying a lot of his lyrics are trivial/meaningless, I just think this can sometimes be a great quality in a song and when Robbie chooses to do this he is amazing at it. I also think with a rap like this, a lot of the charm comes from how the spoken words sound.
By the way! I love Robbie and I didn't like this song at first....But it's grown on me! it's fun! And he can do whatever he wants and it's good in it's own way. He's a legend. But I stand by my correction above! lol.
Robbie said in a magazine interview that he was more proud of rudebox than ANY other song he'd ever done. He loves it!! People are saying he's crazy, but all he's done is bring out a dance song - and a bloody good one i might add!!
Good on you Rob, don't stop the music!!
just a criticism of sellouts and the embargo on independant artists. modern r&b is kept alive not by music, but reputation, and this staple dose of the genre can be chruned out by anyone, including a pop icon. does the fact that it made it to number one in a cool 9 countries fill the criteria for irony?
apparently believing if crazy frog can get to no.1 with something god awful, he'll also get there by churning out this shit.
one of the worst songs i've ever heard
its nothing to do with it being "music like this". its to do with it being "music like this" which is also shit.
Those who hate this song: Do you hate Robbie in generally or just hate this song? Me, I like this song and I like Robbie as he is one of the most courageos and innovative singers, and now he's trying out a new style, which is great! Usually I don't like electronic music very much, but (almost) everything made by Robbie succeeds, because he's got a sense for quality, no matter in which direction!
What's A rudebox???? can anyone help?
A rudebox is a rude girl....In britain a "box" is slang for Twat, dirty girl, something to that extent....<br /> so it's basicly about a rude dirty girl...rude as in dirty..so yeah.
"Bridge: Got yourself a fantasy where we just never stop I got one design and that’s to funk you til the top Know what’s on my mind is only thing you will find I got one design and that’s to bump you til the top"
Isn't it...bump you til you drop?
Yeah, it is
This song is very catchy, is awesome. I think it says "Know what’s on my mind is only ONE thing you will find".
I think this is going to be a hit.
