Single of the Day: Ariana Grande feat. The Weeknd - Love Me Harder

Oleh: admincd - 17 Nov 2014

Released by: Universal Music Indonesia

Kolaborasi merupakan salah satu kekuatan utama dalam album studio kedua Ariana Grande, "My Everything". Duetnya bersama The Weeknd pun dirilis sebagai single ketiga setelah sebelumnya membawa Iggy Azalea dan Zedd. 'Love Me Harder', balada yang tersadur dalam teknik elektropop apik ini adalah hasil racikan Max Martin dan Savan Kotecha beserta Ali Payami, Peter Svensson, dan Peter Carlsson. Jika dibandingkan Cashmere Cat, Childish Gambino, maupun A$AP Ferg, nama The Weekend jelas lebih unggul dalam ketertarikan. Hal yang lumrah karena The Weeknd merupakan Next Big Thing di tahun ini.

There is more. Selain kebesaran nama The Weekend sebagai seorang pendatang baru, kemampuan vokalnya juga tergolong yang jempolan. Ia mampu mengimbangi permainan vokal sekaligus luapan perasaan yang Ariana punya. Kisah cinta yang janggal, antara bahagia dalam duka didongengkan dengan sempurna dalam adu vokal feminin-maskulin kedua artis tersebut. Sempurna? Ya! Karena Ari tampil semanis mungkin dan Weeknd pun se-tough yang ia bisa.

'Love Me Harder' dapat disimpulkan secara singkat dengan kata "equality". Ari patut khawatir kalau-kalau Abel Tesfaye, nama lahir The Weeknd, bisa mengambil alih spotlight darinya atas dasar kesetaraan tersebut. But so far, so good. Single yang akan dibawakan dalam ajang American Music Awards ke-42 ini ternyata sudah mengancam di Top 10 Billboard Hot 100, dan akan menjadi happy ending bagi kedua belah pihak.

LYRIC

[Ariana Grande:]

Tell me something I need to know

Then take my breath and never let it go

If you just let me invade your space

I'll take the pleasure, take it with the pain

And if in the moment I bite my lip

Baby, in the moment, you'll know this is

Something bigger than us and beyond bliss

Give me a reason to believe it

'Cause if you want to keep me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta got to love me harder

And if you really need me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta got to love me harder

Gotta love me harder

Love me, love me, love me

Harder, harder, harder

[The Weeknd:]

I know your motives and you know mine

The ones that love me, I tend to leave behind

If you know about me and choose to stay

Then take this pleasure and take it with the pain

And if in the moment you bite your lip

When I get you moaning you know it's real

Can you feel the pressure between your hips?

I'll make it feel like the first time

[Ariana Grande & The Weeknd:]

'Cause if you want to keep me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta got to love me harder (Imma love you harder)

And if you really need me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta got to love me harder (love me harder)

Love me, love me, love me

Harder, harder, harder

Love me, love me, love me

Harder, harder, harder

So what would I do if I can't figure it out?

You got to try, try, try again

So what would I do if I can't figure it out?

I'm gonna leave, leave, leave again

'Cause if you want to keep me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta got to love me harder (Imma love you, love you, love you)

And if you really need me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta got to love me harder (love me, love me, baby)

'Cause if you want to keep me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta got to love me harder (love me harder)

And if you really need me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta got to love me harder (Imma love you harder)

Love me, love me, love me

Harder, harder, harder

(love me, love me, baby)

Love me, love me, love me

(just a little bit, just a little bit harder, babe)

Harder, harder, harder
