She's just on the Radio...

[Cooby]

I found On The Radio's lyrics really awesome today and I wanted to share them with you because I think this is one of the Nelly's song with the most cool lyrics

And they can be used in these Loose times...


On The Radio (Remember the days)

You liked me till' you heard my shit on the radio
Well I hate to say but pop aint' going solo
You liked me till' you heard my shit on the radio
But now I'm just too mainstream for you, oh no
You liked me till' you seen me on your t.v.
Well if you're so low below then why you watching
You say good things come to those who wait
Well I've been waiting a long time for it

[Chorus:]
I remember the days when I was so eager to satisfy you
And be less then I was just to prove I could walk beside you
Now that I've flown away I see you've chosen to stay behind me
And still you curse the day I decided to stay true to myself

You say your quest is to bring it higher
Well I never seen change without a fire
But from your mouth I have seen a lot of burning
But underneath I think it's a lot of yearning
Your face, the colours change from green to yellow
To the point where you can't even say hello
You tell me you'd kill me if I ever snob you out
Like that's what you'd expect from me, like that's what I'm about

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
It's so much easier to stay down there guaranteeing you're cool
Than to sit up here exposing myself trying to break through
Than to burn in the spotlight, turn in the spitfire
Scream without making a sound, be up here and not look down
because we're all afraid of heights

[Chorus]

Why ya hurt me hurt me hurt me hurt me hurt me hurt me so so,
leave me down down down down low leave me down da down down da down da down down down...shit on the radio... shit on the radio... shit on the radio... shit on the radio



For all those Loose haters

Hey, now that was indeed a prophet song...
I always wondered how she knew all about being mainstream, when she was then so original...
I guess she knew that one day she'd have to flow with the tide...

And let "Sh!t On The Radio" be a reminder to all those who prolly have forgotten they're her fans...
Nelly, go as much Loose as you feel like!

[Maca (Mod)]

Cool indeed, I love it when lyrics and stuff like this are posted kinda randomly.

Requesting so many tunes we devote tonight, this is DJ Nelstar* coming at ya!!!!

I'm coming at ya on the radio tonight, cause I like my shit on my radio... My shit on the radio-o-o-o-o

And now, we have:

F-U-R-T-A-D-O, I'm on your radio -- F-U-R-T-A-D-O, I'm on your video, holler if you hear me yo!

Thanks, Cooby... Of much use in these Loose times as you say!!

I think it's because before she signed a deal with a record label she was really into underground hiphop and that's were she gave her first musical steps, so making pop music is selling out in comparison to that.

Hope she always finds her own way to "flow with the tide" though

What if she had already planned this all along? to go mainstream i mean.

[billerr]

You think? Yeah, that must have been her plan... First, to get known to the world with "Whoa,Nelly!", then pour out her soul and get disappointed to the point of letting 'Folklore' down (see the "Folklore was not quite ther" comment on Blender), and right after that get awkwardly sexy just for a change...

Yyeeessss, that does seem like Nelly's plan to me alright....
