Two Good songs to compare is If I were your man by Bruno Mars Same bed, but it feels just a little bit bigger now Our song on the radio, but it don't sound the same When our friends talk about you all that it does is just tear me down Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name And it all just sound like uh, uh, uh Hmmm too young, too dumb to realize That I should have bought you flowers and held your hand Should have gave you all my hours when I had the chance Take you to every party cause all you wanted to do was dance Now my baby is dancing, but she's dancing with another man. My pride, my ego, my needs and my selfish ways Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life Now I never, never get to clean up the mess I made And it haunts me every time I close my eyes It all just sounds like uh, uh, uh, uh Too young, too dumb to realize That I should have bought you flowers and held your hand Should have gave all my hours when I had the chance Take you to every party cause all you wanted to do was dance Now my baby is dancing, but she's dancing with another man. Although it hurts I'll be the first to say that I was wrong Oh, I know I'm probably much too late To try and apologize for my mistakes But I just want you to know I hope he buys you flowers, I hope he holds your hand Give you all his hours when he has the chance Take you to every party cause I remember how much you loved to dance Do all the things I should have done when I was your man! Do all the things I should have done when I was your man! And If you were mine by Byrmo Verse 1 So many times I ask myself the question why Why e be say when you smile it makes me wonder why O n se mi se mi bi ko bami lo I know its hard to walk away from what you know Huh baby If you ask me I?ll deny But the truth girl its in my eyes I just dey think about your smile I no fit shout I?m loving you, you loving him Chorus If you were mine Baby if you were mine Aso to fine lo ma wo Ile to fine lo ma gbe If you were mine Verse 2 So many times I ask myself the question why The way I dey feel it makes me touch the sky Ma toju toju e Ba mi lo From the madness and the pain I?d set you free Huh baby If you ask me I?ll deny But the truth girl its in my eyes I just dey think about your smile I no fit shout I?m loving you, you loving him Chorus If you were mine Baby if you were mine Aso to fine lo ma wo Ile to fine lo ma gbe If you were mine Verse 3 I don?t wanna live without you baby And I wanna be your man while you acting shady Girl Ill go anywhere that you want Baby tell me where you want me to Huh baby Yehhhhh, yeh yeh Chorus If you were mine Baby if you were mine Aso to fine lo ma wo Ile to fine lo ma gbe If you were mine If you were mine Baby if you were mine Aso to fine lo ma wo Ile to fine lo ma gbe If you were mine If you were mine baby If you were mine / 3ce If you were mine baby If you were mine /3ce If you were mine If you were mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mine If you were mine These songs are similar and are in the same genre of music(Kinda) Feel free to tell me what you think Personally I love both songs, cant really choose which 1 I prefer |

Comparison seems to be the most popular thread in the arts. Why not just enjoy the art and in along? You cant compare Nigerian artists with American. Those are highly organized targeting a global audience. We try fighting for the local share of the market |
Re: Lyrics of Nigerian and Foreign Songs Compared by Boll2010: 7:53am On Aug 01, 2013 |
uche16: Why do Nigerians get so defensive and angry when they are compared to individuals from other country.our music Is good when you listen to ASA,nneka.its wack when you listen to Davido,wizkid plus a lot of Nigerians love dumbed down music, few Nigerians would ever listen to Kendrick Lamar or jcole,when they want to listen to foreign based music,they still go for the same dumbed down party music. Loving good music is an acquired taste. Music isn't about geographical borders,its about individuality.its about the guy/gal belting out the tunes,so a broad comparison between countries is unfair,compare greats on both sides and do likewise to the wacksdamn lamar n jcole love dem a lot gud lyricust jcole tels me story dt ar life related,lamar maks u knw lyf aint worth it#forbidden fruits was gud combinatn frm dudes |
