Song Choice

Aly & Aj - Potential Breakup Song

Explain Why You Have Chosen This Song And Why?

Both Andrea and I had similar ideas on what sort of thing we wanted to do for our music video. We both wanted to take part in being infront of the camera. Because of this we thought it would be best to find a song shared by two girls. After a lot of hard work and research we found only a few reasonable ones, but there was something about them that we didn't quite like. Luckily whilst i was doing my own home research i came across Aly & Aj, i listened to all of their songs in order to find the best ones. I put up the songs i liked out of them all onto my blog and went through them with Andrea in our next lesson. We listened to the songs a countless amount of times and agreed on the same song which is Aly & Aj's - Potential breakup song. The two main reasons to why we chose this song is because one, it has two females parts and two, it's not that well known. Another reason to why we chose this song is because as soon as we listened to it we started coming up with loads of interesting ideas about what we could include in our version of the music video.

Song Lyric's

[Verse 1]
It took too long, it took too long, it took too long, for you to call back,
And normally I would just forget that!
Except for the fact it was my birthday
My stupid birthday!

[Verse 2]
I played along, I played along, I played along,
Rolled right off my back!
But obviously my armor was cracked,
What kind of a boyfriend would forget that?
Who would forget that!

[Bridge]
The type of guy who doesn't see,
What he has until she leaves...
Don't let me go!
'Cause without me you know you're lost,
Wise up now or pay the cost,
Soon you will know!

[Chorus]
You're not livin',
'Til you're livin',
Livin' with me!

You're not winnin',
'Til you're winnin',
Winnin' me!

You're not gettin',
'Til you're gettin',
Gettin' to me!

You're not livin',
'Til you're livin',
Livin' for me!

This is the,
Potential break-up song,
Our album needs just one.
Oh baby, please, please tell me!

[Verse 3]
We got along, we got along, we got along until you did that
Now all I want is just my stuff back!
Do you get that?
Let me repeat that,
I want my stuff back!
You could send it in a box,
I don't care, just drop it off,
I won't be home!
Cause 'without me, you know you're lost,
Minus you, I'm better off,
Soon you will know!

[Chorus]
You're not livin',
'Til you're livin',
Livin' with me!

You're not winnin',
'Til you're winnin',
Winnin' me

You're not gettin',
'Til you're gettin',
Gettin' to me!

You're not livin',
'Til you're livin',
Livin' for me!

[Middle-Eight]
You can try, you can try,
You know I know it'd be a lie,
Without me, you're gonna die!
So you better think clearly, clearly,
Before you nearly, nearly,
Messed up the situation,
That you're gonna miss dearly, dearly c'mon!

[Chorus]
You're not livin',
'Til you're livin', (No)
Livin' with me!

You're not winnin',
'Til you're winnin', (No no noo! )
Winnin' me!

You're not gettin',
'Til you're gettin', (Till your gettin'! )
Gettin' to me!

You're not livin'
'Til you're livin' (No no no no no no no no)
Livin' for me

This is the
Potential break-up song.
Our album needs just one
Oh baby, please, please tell me!

This is the
Potential make-up song.
Please just admit you're wrong!
Which will it be?
Which will it be?
(Lalalalalala lalalalalala lalalalalala)
