Penyanyi yg satu ini adalah salah satu favoritku.. Dulu waktu aku pertama kali ngedengerin dia nyanyi gara2 dia jadi salah satu brand ambassador gitar merk Martin (gitar mahal tuh) aku langsung suka karena dia memang beneran bagus.. Wajar sih kalo jadi brand ambassador..
Lagu ini pertama kudengar disela-sela berita virus yg membosankan.. Rasanya kayak ada sinar keceriaan di nada-nadanya..
Pas aku browsing lirik lagunya malah aku terbawa ke cerita yg pernah aku dengar tentang wanita yang merasa tidak pantas untuk dicintai oleh lelakinya.
Kayaknya Ini lagu yang pas untuk mereka.. Pesan dari lagu ini disampaikan secara ceria dan membangun menurutku..
Berikut lirik lagunya
"Who You Thought I Was"
I used to wanna be a cowboy
A shadow in a sunset
That's why I started smokin' cigarettes
I used to wanna be a cowboy
I used to wanna be Elvis
Drive a pink Cadillac car
That's why I learned to play the guitar
I used to wanna be Elvis
There's a lot of things I used to wanna do 'til I met you
Now I wanna be honest
Now I wanna be better
Now I wanna be the me I should've been
When we were together
I wanna be at least
Almost close to worth your love
I wanna be who
You thought I was
I used to wanna join the circus
Hang around with the freak show
Wish I'd learned to walk a tight rope
I used to wanna join the circus
Used to wanna stay eighteen
I used to wanna an airstream
With a lawn chair tumbleweed view
Now I just want you
And I wanna be honest
Now I wanna be better
I wanna be the me I should've been
When we were together
I wanna be at least
Almost close to worth your love
I wanna be who
You thought I was
There's a lot of things I used to wanna be
Til you stopped lovin' me
Now I wanna be steady
I wanna be forever
Now I wanna be the me I could've been
When we were together
I wanna be at least
Almost close to worth your love
I wanna be who
You thought I was
Yeah, I wanna be who
You thought I was
Selamat menikmati lagunya..
