Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know Lyrics (feat. Kimbra)
Somebody That I Used to Know" is a song by artist and songwriter Gotye. The song was written by Gotye himself, about his past relationship with a girl that broke his heart. You hear both sides of the story as the singers sing to each other why they fell out of love and that they're glad they did. The man (Gotye) seems heartbroken in the song while his ex girlfriend explains why she ended it with him. It was released on July 6, 2011 as the lead single and most popular song off his album "Making Mirrors".
The video takes place in a room full of painted triangles, as the singers sing the song to each other.....naked...and blend into the wall themselves. They begin without anything on them, and as the song progresses, the paint on the walls begin to come onto the singers until they are almost impossible to see.
It is Gotye's most successful song and his first #1 song. "Somebody That I Used To Know" is also his first song to make the top 100 in the United States. It has been played in the TV series "90210", "Gossip Girl", and "Glee".
Following "Somebody That I Used To Know" is "We Are Young" buy Fun, which was the number one song for a few weeks until this song passed it.

 "We Are Young" is a song by the band "fun". it was released on September 11, 2011. the song was the band's first singe from their latest album "Some Nights". it originally became popular online, but its fame increased when the hit show "Glee" covered it in its episode "Hold On to Sixteen". by February 2012, it hit the top of the iTunes list, was passed for a few days by Justin Bieber's song "boyfriend", but got ahead yet again and became one of the most mainstream songs in the time being. it is the most popular song on iTunes and number 12 on the Billboard hot 100. Fun is doing great, but has only released two albums since 2009. it consists of three current members; Jack Antonoff, Andrew Dost, and Nate Ruess. Ruess formed the band with the other two when he broke up with his original band "The Format" in 2008. since then, he has been hugely successful with his current band and his biggest hit, We Are Young. the music video has been a huge success as well, taking place at a bar in which a riot breaks out. in the beginning, you see a girl texting someone, in which the message reads NOW! assuming this is supposed to trigger the riot. people and object fly across the bar, showing just how young a wild the band really is.
