The Best Music

[Squirrel]

It's been too long since I posted one of these...

This is one of those songs that, for me, I was enjoying it's beat, and how easy it is to dance to, and it wasn't until now that I wanted to take a look at the lyrics.

I almost wish I hadn't?

It's just so obvious, if you read them, that the person saying this needs help... even before you see the song lines, "I overdosed".

In a nutshell (cough, double-entendre humour?! when do I EVER say anything fast??), a guy gets to go out with someone he obsesses over... and he never recovers.

So if this song sounds like you, let me know in a PM or something, and let's talk?

For me... I'm going to try to forget what it's about, so I can still enjoy the energy and the tune of the dance remix I found and love.

(Really, how could there even BE a dance remix of this song?! The dude kills himself!! How can you dance to that?! Well, OK, maybe it makes more sense that he tried to, survived, then wrote this song.)

In my usual way, I'm going to post a remix video that I found -- the one I like is even faster and dancier. (OK, not a word, but cut me some slack!)

House Remix:



And give you the lyrics... even though they are... a bit repetitive. (I couldn't condense them, because they're not exactly the same in any given section, but you'll get the idea.)


Lyrics: Charlie Puth - We Don't Talk Anymore

We don't talk anymore, we don't talk anymore
We don't talk anymore, like we used to do
We don't love anymore
What was all of it for?
Oh, we don't talk anymore, like we used to do

I just heard you found the one you've been looking
You've been looking for
I wish I would have known that wasn't me
'Cause even after all this time I still wonder
Why I can't move on
Just the way you did so easily

Don't wanna know
What kind of dress you're wearing tonight
If he's holding onto you so tight
The way I did before
I overdosed
Should've known your love was a game
Now I can't get you out of my brain
Oh, it's such a shame

That we don't talk anymore, we don't talk anymore
We don't talk anymore, like we used to do
We don't love anymore
What was all of it for?
Oh, we don't talk anymore, like we used to do

I just hope you're lying next to somebody
Who knows how to love you like me
There must be a good reason that you're gone
Every now and then I think you
Might want me to come show up at your door
But I'm just too afraid that I'll be wrong

Don't wanna know
If you're looking into her eyes
If she's holding onto you so tight the way I did before
I overdosed
Should've known your love was a game
Now I can't get you out of my brain
Oh, it's such a shame

That we don't talk anymore (We don't, we don't)
We don't talk anymore (We don't, we don't)
We don't talk anymore, like we used to do
We don't love anymore (We don't, we don't)
What was all of it for? (We don't, we don't)
Oh, we don't talk anymore, like we used to do

Like we used to do

Don't wanna know
What kind of dress you're wearing tonight
If he's giving it to you just right
The way I did before
I overdosed
Should've known your love was a game
Now I can't get you out of my brain
Oh, it's such a shame

That we don't talk anymore (We don't, we don't)
We don't talk anymore (We don't, we don't)
We don't talk anymore, like we used to do
We don't love anymore (We don't, we don't)
What was all of it for? (We don't, we don't)
Oh, we don't talk anymore, like we used to do

We don't talk anymore, oh, oh
(What kind of dress you're wearing tonight)
(If he's holding onto you so tight)
The way I did before
We don't talk anymore, oh, woah
(Should've known your love was a game)
(Now I can't get you out of my brain)
Ooh, it's such a shame
That we don't talk anymore
