Tate McRae's TIT FOR TAT is an epic example of how a Canadian breaks up... with a politely venomous pop song about an Australian ex-boyfriend 
------
LYRICS:
------
Right now-
I'm not even about you

Thought I might love you again
See how I feel
Now that you're actin' like that
I never will

Last night
She answered my call
It sealed the deal
Right now
I'm not even about you

The day I met you, boy
I thought it was a blessin'
In the heat of it
I always took your side

It's a shame you out here 
Tryna make it messy

Wow, you're messy
Damn
We were good
I thought we made it through the endin'

I was hearin' shit
I never thought you'd say
Could have picked it up 
Exactly where we left it

Took our future off your plate...

Let's go song for song
Let's go back to back
Let's go tit for tat
Boy, you asked for that
That's the best you got
Where's the good one at? 
I was never as far 
Away as you thought

Thought I might love you again
See how I feel
Now that you're actin' like that
I never will

Last night
She answered my call
It sealed the deal
Right now, I'm not even about you

Thought I might love you again
See how I feel
Now that you're actin' like that
I never will

Last night
She answered my call
It sealed the deal
Right now, I'm not even about you

I was nothin' but respectful
And you know that
Why you changin' up the narrative to write?

No, I can't do this
You're makin' me do this
If you want to fight

Let's go song for song
Let's go back to back
Fix your fuckin' self
Kiss my ass for that 

That's the best you got
Where's the good one at?
Should've known 
You'd be the type to change

Thought I might love you again
See how I feel
Now that you're actin' like that
I never will

Last night
She answered my call
It sealed the deal
Right now, I'm not even about you

Thought I might love you again
See how I feel
Now that you're actin' like that
I never will

Last night
She answered my call
It sealed the deal
Right now, I'm not even about you

That looks like it really hurts
That bruise on your ego
I know that it makes it worse
It had to be me, though

Thought I might love you again
See how I feel
Now that you're actin' like that
I never will
Last night she answered-

My call
Sealed the deal
Right now I'm...

Thought I might love you again
See how I feel
Now that you're actin' like that
I never will
Last night
She answered my call
It sealed the deal
Right now, I'm partyin' without you

I'm partyin' without you

I'm partyin' without you

I'm partyin' without you.

TIT FOR TAT (Canadian Popstar Breakup Song)

The memory of a first love, where youth and music entwined - fleeting, forbidden, and forever cherished in the secrecy of a different time
------
LYRICS:
------
I remember when rock was young
Me and Susie had so much fun
Holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy
And a place of my own

But the biggest kick I ever got
Was doing a thing 
Called the Crocodile Rock

While the other kids 
Were rockin' round the clock
We were hopping and bopping 
To the Crocodile Rock

Well,
Crocodile Rockin' is something shocking
When your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time 
And I guess I never will

Oh, lawdy mama those Friday nights
When Suzie wore 
Her dresses tight

And the Crocodile Rockin' 
Was out of sight
Laa, la-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa

But the years went by 
And the rock just died
Suzie went and left me 
For some foreign guy
Long nights crying 
By the record machine
Dreaming of my Chevy 
And old blue jeans

But they'll never 
Kill the thrills we've got
Burning up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning fast as the weeks went past
We really thought 
The Crocodile Rock would last

Well, 
Crocodile Rockin' is something shocking
When your feet just can't keep still

I never knew me a better time 
And I guess I never will

Oh, lawdy mama those Friday nights
When Suzie wore her dresses tight

Crocodile Rockin'
Was out of sight
Laa, la-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa

Ooh, Ahhhh 

I remember when rock was young
Me and Suzie had so much fun
Holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy
And place of my own

But the biggest kick I ever got
Was doing a thing 
Called the Crocodile Rock

While the other kids 
Were rockin' round the clock
We were hopping and bopping 
To the Crocodile Rock

Well,
Crocodile Rockin' is something shocking
When your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time 
And I guess I never will

Oh, lawdy mama those Friday nights
When Suzie wore her dresses tight

La-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa

Laa, la-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa

Lah, Ahhhh

Beneath the Crocodile Moon

a city in flames - a generation pushed too far... “OCCUPY” is the sound of the impending rebellion where fire meets fire
------
LYRICS:
------
Sirens… 
Flames… 
Boots on the street

Wake up — city ash, concrete coughs
Sirens count the bodies
Chalk on the blocks
Steel boots on the stoop, helicopters eye
I’m not afraid 
Tonight, I won’t hide

They brought the tanks to teach us peace
But peace was just a paper lease

O-C-C-U-P-Y!  
Occupy the ones who occupy!  
Raise the fist, no compromise
This is the sound of a city’s rise

Windows like teeth
Broken and bare
Momma’s prayer 
Stuck in tear-matted hair 
You call it order
We call it theft
You dressed as law 
But you bring the cleft
My posse breathes in 
The same black smoke
A thousand quiet men 
Who finally spoke

You paint us riot
Sign us sin
But where you end
We begin

O-C-C-U-P-Y!  
Occupy the ones who occupy!  
Raise the fist, no compromise
This is the sound of a city’s rise

They call me vengeful 
Like it’s a crime
But vengeance is justice
Sharpened in time

I watched my neighbor 
Dragged from his home
Mercy is ashes
Rage is stone

If blood is the ink you write with pride
I’ll be the fire that burns your lie

Violence meets violence 
Fire meets fire 
We are the streets
We are the flame

Democracy’s blood runs in our veins

O-C-C-U-P-Y!  
Occupy the ones who occupy!  
O-C-C-U-P-Y!  
This city’s blood will testify!  

From the smoke 
We raise our signs
O-C-C-U-P-Y!  
Occupy the ones who occupy!

OCCUPY

"Baby" by BABY NO - Canada's Only Justin Bieber Gothic Rock Tribute Band 
------
LYRICS:
------
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh
Oh, whoa, oh-oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh

You know you love me
I know you care
Just shout whenever 
And I'll be there

You are my love
You are my heart 
And we will never, ever
Ever be apart

Are we an item? 
Girl quit playing 
We're just friends
What are you saying?

Said, "There's another" 
And looked right in my eyes
My first love broke my heart 
For the first time

And I was like...

Baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh

Thought you'd always be mine, mine

Baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh
Thought you'd always be mine, mine

Oh, for you, I would've done whatever
And I just can't believe we ain't together 
And I wanna play it cool
But I'm losing you 
I'll buy you anything
I'll buy you any ring

And I'm in pieces
Baby fix me
And just shake me 
Til you wake me from this bad dream
I'm going down, down, down, down
And I just can't believe my first love 
Won't be around

And I'm like...

Baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh

Thought you'd always be mine, mine

Baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh

Thought you'd always be mine, mine

When I was thirteen
I had my first love
There was nobody 
That compared to my baby
And nobody came between us 
Nor could ever come above
She had me going crazy
Oh, I was starstruck

She woke me up daily
Don't need no Starbucks
She made my heart pound
And skip a beat
When I see her in the street
And at school on the playground
But I really wanna 
She her on the weekend

She knows she got me dazin'
Cause she was so amazin'
And now my heart is breakin'
But I just keep on sayin'...

Baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh

Thought you'd always be mine, mine

Baby, baby, baby, oh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, oh
Thought you'd always be mine, mine

Gone---

Now I'm all gone

Gone. Gone. Gone.

BABY NO

"Beautiful Things” draped in darkwave shadows — a reimagining where love is both devotion and danger. It becomes a requiem to forbidden beauty, trembling somewhere between secrecy and eternity, a fragile light hidden away from the judgement of the world
------
LYRICS:
------
For a while there it was rough
But lately I've been doin' better
Than the last four cold Decembers
I recall
And I see my family every month

I found a girl my parents love
She'll come and stay the night
And I think I might have it all
And I thank God every day
For the girl 
He sent my way
But I know the things 
He gives me
He can take away

And I hold you every night
And that's a feelin' I wanna get used to
But there's no man as terrified
As the man who stands to lose you

Oh, 
I hope I don't lose you
Mmm

Please stay
I want you
I need you
Oh, God
Don't take
These beautiful things that I've got

Please stay
I want you
I need you
Oh, God
Don't take
These beautiful things that I've got

Oh
Ooh
Ooh

Please don't take

I found my mind
I'm feelin' sane

It's been a while
But I'm findin' my faith

If everything's good 
And it's great
Why do I sit 
And wait 'til it's gone?

Oh, 
I'll tell ya
I know I've got enough
I've got peace
And I've got love
But I'm up at night thinkin'
I just might lose it all

Please stay
I want you
I need you
Oh, God
Don't take
These beautiful things that I've got

Oh
Ooh

Please stay
I want you
I need you
Oh God
I need-
These beautiful things that I've got

BEAUTIFUL THINGS | Benson Boone | Darkwave Requiem

LYRICS:
Party Rock
Yeah
Woo
Let's go

Party rock is in the house tonight
Everybody just have a good time 

And we gon' make you lose your mind 
Everybody just have a good time 

Party rock is in the house tonight
Everybody just have a good time 
I can feel it, babe

And we gon' make you lose your mind
We just wanna see you...
Shake that

So raise your glass if you are wrong
In all the right ways
All my underdogs

We will never be 
Never be
Anything but loud
And nitty gritty dirty little freaks

Won't you come on and come on and raise your glass
Just come on and come on and raise your glass
Won't you come on and come on and raise your glass
Just come on and come on and raise your glass

In the club, party rock
Looking for your girl? 
She on my jock, huh
Non-stop when we in the spot
Booty moving weight 
Like she on the block 

Where the drank?
I gots to know
Tight jeans, tattoo, 'cause I'm rock and roll
Half-black, half-white, domino
Gainin' money
Oprah dough

Yo, I'm running through these hoes like Drano
I got that devilish flow, Rock and Roll
No halo, we party rock

Yeah, that's the crew that I'm reppin'
On the rise to the top, no Led in our Zeppelin 

Hey!

Party rock is in the house tonight
Everybody just have a good time 

And we gon' make you lose your mind
Everybody just have a good time 

Let's Go!

Party rock is in the house tonight
Everybody just have a good time
And we gon' make you lose your mind
We just wanna see you...
Shake that

Every day I'm shufflin'

Shufflin', Shufflin'

We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place

Shine a light through an open door
Love and life
I will divide

Turn away 'cause I need you more
Feel the heartbeat in my mind

It's the way I'm feeling
I just can't deny-
But I've gotta let it go

Put your hands up to the sound
Get up, get down
Put your hands up to the sound
Put your hands up to the sound
Get up, get down
Put your hands up to the sound

Put your hands up to the sound
Let's go

Get up, get up, get up, get up
Get up, get up, get up, get up

Get up, get up, get up, get up
Shake That
Get up, get up, get up, get up

Put your hands up, put your hands up
Put your hands up, put your hands up

Put your hands up, put your hands up
Put your hands up, put your hands up
Good Time

(Ah) Girl, look at that body
(Ah) Girl, look at that body
(Ah) Girl, look at that body
(Ah) I-I-I work out

(Ah) Girl, look at that body
(Ah) Girl, look at that body
(Ah) Girl, look at that body
(Ah) I-I-I work out

Shake That

Every day I'm shufflin'

Shake That

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You'd better run, better run, outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You'd better run, better run
Faster than my bullet

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You'd better run, better run, outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You'd better run, better run
Faster than my bullet

Put your, put your hands up
Put your-
Put your, put your hands up

Put your, put your hands up 
Put your, put your hands up

Put your, put your hands up

Put your hands up

Your hands up

“The Washington Monument is now less about history and more about chemistry — the #1 historical place to get AH-MATIZED”
------
LYRICS:
------
Daisy's bare naked
I was distraught
He loves me not
He loves me not

Penny's unlucky
I took him back
And then stepped on a crack
And the black cat laughed

And baby I'll admit 
I've been a little superstitious 
Fingers crossed 
Until you put your hand on mine 

Seems to be that you and me
We make our own luck
A bad sign 
Is all good

I, I, I ain't gotta knock on wood
All of that bitchin'
Wishing on a falling star
Never did me any good

I ain't got to knock on wood
It's you and me forever 
Dancing in the dark
All over me, it's understood

I ain't got to knock on wood
Forgive me
It sounds cocky
He Ah-Matized me 
And opened my eyes

Redwood tree
It ain't hard to see
His love was the key 
That opened my thighs

Girls-
I don't need to catch the bouquet
mmm

To know a hard rock is on the way

And baby I'll admit 
I've been a little superstitious 
The curse on me was broken 
By your magic wand

Seems to me that you and me
We make our own luck
New Heights 
Of manhood 

Manhood...

I ain't gotta knock on wood
All of that bitchin'
Wishing on a falling star
Never did me any good

I ain't got to knock on wood
It's you and me forever 
Dancing in the dark
All over me
It's understood

I ain't got to knock on wood
Forgive me, it sounds cocky
He Ah-Matized me and opened my eyes

Redwood tree, it ain't hard to see
His love was the key that opened my thighs

Forgive me, it sounds cocky
He Ah-Matized me and opened my eyes

Redwood tree, it ain't hard to see
His love was the key that opened my thighs

Forgive me
It sounds cocky
He Ah-Matized me 
And opened my eyes

Redwood tree
It ain't hard to see
His love was the key 
That opened my thighs

AH-MATIZED WOOD

“Las Vegas Is Crying for Your Money — a glittering mirage of dreams, fading under the weight of reality.”
------
LYRICS:
------
Frank’s voice on the stereo,
Rat Pack halo, tuxedo glow,  
Desert dreams in tailored suits,
Every family took their roots

90's towers
Roller coasters spun
A wonderland 
For everyone

The cards kept falling,
The dice rolled free,  
And Vegas sang in harmony

Las Vegas is crying for your money,  
Las Vegas is crying for your money,  
Las Vegas is crying for your money,  
Las Vegas is crying for your money.

Tourists fading, nights grow long,  
Luxury priced a working song,  
Fifty-dollar burgers, fees on air,  
You pay for smoke that isn’t there

Hotel rooms like empty shrines,  
Glitter cracks between the lines

The house still smiles
But it hides its pain
The coins are fewer
The slots complain

Las Vegas is crying for your money,  
Las Vegas is crying for your money,  
Las Vegas is crying for your money,  
Las Vegas is crying for your money.  

Dealers weeping in the dark,  
Service jobs with no more spark,  
Unemployment fills the night,  
A city broken by its fight

And every tear 
That leaves the eye-
Falls to the river running dry

Colorado swelling wide,  
Fed by sorrow, fed by pride,
Waters lift the skyline high,  
A mirrored city in the sky

New fountains bloom 
Where old ones bled
Tourists come 
To drink instead

Las Vegas is crying for your money,  
Las Vegas is crying for your money,  
Las Vegas is crying for your money,  
Las Vegas is crying for your money.  

The lights return
The water runs

The city cries...

But the song goes on

LAS VEGAS IS CRYING (For Your Money)

Little Darlin'-
The Sun will likely engulf the Earth in about 7.59 billion years from now, when it expands into a red giant star...
☀️ Happy Sun Day!

LYRICS:
------
Here comes the sun
Doo-doo-doo
Here comes the sun
And I say, "It's all right"

Little darlin'
It's been a long, cold
Lonely winter

Little darlin'
It feels like years 
Since it's been here

Here comes the sun
Doo-doo-do
Here comes the sun
And I say, "It's all right"

Little darlin'
The smile's returning 
To the faces

Little darlin'
It seems like years 
Since it's been here

Here comes the sun...

Here comes the sun...
And I say, "It's all right"

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes

Little darlin'
I feel that ice 
Is slowly melting

Little darlin'
It seems like years 
Since it's been here

Here comes the sun
Doo-doo-doo
Here comes the sun
And I say, "It's all right"

Here comes the sun
Doo-doo-doo
Here comes the sun

It's all right

It's all right

A multi - genre album about my personal story with metal health issues.

Gachi

SINCERE IMPOSTER is an intimate collection of artists exploring a curious mixture of New Wave, Dance, EDM, Folk Rock, Metal, Art Pop, Electro, Dreamwave, and Experimental World Pop. Collectively, this is known as QUIRKPOP — music that pushes the creative limits of traditional pop.

Expect an unpredictable journey through sound, emotion, and humor, where genres collide and pop bends in strange new ways. Each song is conceived, composed, and performed with total sincerity, whether it’s built from voices, instruments, software, or hybrid experimentation. The focus is on the music itself: if it resonates, it resonates. No explanation required.

SINCERE IMPOSTER is curated by two musicians, both living within the same body, sharing a singular existence. They identify as Danielle & Dave. They are both psychologically and musically confused, yet extremely and unapologetically sincere.

Influences range from Weird Al and Nathan Fielder to David Lynch, Rosalia, Monatik, Atarashii Gakko!, Rammstein, T-Pain, and T-Swift. 

Danielle & Dave’s favorite inventions include the vacuum and the peach pitter. Their father is simply known as Vessel… who may be an entity or a god.
