Jessie J – Price Tag lyrics in Irish. Buíochas le TG Lurgan. I haven’t had time to clean up the translation but you get the jist. “Price Tag” is a song by English singer-songwriter Jessie J, featuring American rapper B.o.B. It was released on 31 January 2011 in the United Kingdom as the second single from Jessie J’s debut studio album, Who You Are. “Price Tag” was written by Jessie J, Dr. Luke, Claude Kelly and B.o.B, and it was produced by Dr. Luke. It serves as the album’s lead single in the United States. An official remix features British rapper Devlin. The song debuted at number one in the UK, Ireland and New Zealand becoming Jessie J’s first number-one single in all three countries. In the US, “Price Tag” peaked at number 23 on the Billboard Hot 100. Additionally, the song charted at number one in ten countries, becoming Jessie J’s biggest hit to date. The song was also the biggest-selling collaboration of the year in the UK.
Jessie J has performed the song at a number of live performances, with other singers filling in for B.o.B or his verse being completely cut-out. “Price Tag” has received generally positive reviews from critics. The video features an oversized teddy bear, a money tree, and Jessie J as a ballerina in a large jewellery box. The single has sold 1,070,000 copies as of November 2012. The song was covered by The Wombats on BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge on 31 May 2011. In December 2011, Jessie J recorded a Christmas-themed version of the song, with an interpolation of “Jingle Bells”, featuring vocals from British singer-songwriter Jan.
“Price Tag” is an up-tempo, “feel good” track, inflected with reggae bounce and a sing-along chorus with powerful vocals from Jessie J, slinky guitars, and a vintage backbeat. Lyrically, the song is about Jessie J trying to make the public dance by forgetting about how much money they have. The drum beat for the song is a sample taken from “Zimba Ku” by Black Heat.
The song has received generally positive reviews from music critics. Popjustice gave the song a positive review, saying it was a “ridiculously addictive introduction to an effortlessly great, new(ish) talent.” The Guardian’s Caspar Smith referred to both the song and J’s previous single “Do It Like A Dude” as “planet-saving R&B-based hits-in-waiting.” AOL Radio’s James Wells praised the song, saying that it “shows off the tirelessly upbeat, Motown-tinged singing and songwriting for which Jessie J has become known.” He went on to contrast the song from other tracks from J’s debut album Who You Are, calling it less aggressive and more “about the positive vibes.” Nick Levine of Digital Spy compared the song to Miley Cyrus’s “Party in the U.S.A.” (2009), which was co-written by Jessie J. He said, “Truth be told, ‘Price Tag’ does come off a little bit corny, but thanks in no small part to Jessie’s spunky likability” and described it as a “sun-dappled, hip-hop-inflected midtempo head-nodder”.
Is cosúil nach bhfuil aon leigheas Ní bhíonn codladh a'inn de aon saghas Má's rud é nach bhfuil Do dhóthain a'at fós Stop soicind 's ainmnigh do, Phraghas
'Bhfuil cúis go bhfuil tú ró-dháirire 'g cur i gcéill go bhfuil rud orainne Leis an meon 'tá a'at Beidh ort dul i bhfad Mar ní féidir sult a Bhaint
Droichead: Chuile dhuine breathnaigh ar chlé Chuile dhuine breathnaigh ar dheis An dtuigeann tú anois Ní bheidh duine fágtha sa mbreis
Curfá: Is cuma faoin airgid, nó brábus Ní miste linn bheith i mbún an ragúis Cuirfimid ag domhain ag damhsa Sona sásta 's muid ag siamsa
Is cuma faoi, r-rud ar bith Níl éinne ag, tabhairt aire duit 's beidh an domhain ag damhsa Sona sásta 's muid ag siamsa
V2: Tá orainn dul siar go dtí, Áit ina raibh fíor-bhrionglóidí, Nuair nach raibh aon fhadhb Nó fiú príomh-aidhm Bá bhrea liom bheith ar ais arís
Tá chuile dhuine gafa leis Bíonn siad go léir ag cuartú deis' Le bheith sona slán, Céard 'tá i ndán Geallaim duit go mbeidh muid, togha
Droichead
Curfá
It's like there's no medicine There doesn't be any sleep If you don't have Enough yet Stop a second and name your, Price
Is there a reason you're over serious pretending like there's things on us With the spirit you have We can go far Because it's not possible To have fun
Bridge: Everybody look left Everyone look right Do you understand now No one will be left over
Chorus: We don't care about the money, or profit We do not mind being in the binge We'll make the world dance Happy and entertaining
Not a single thing matters No one is taking care of you The world will be dancing Happy and entertaining
V2: We have to go back to, The place of dreams come true When there was no problem Or higher aim I'd love to be back
Everyone's hooked on it They are all exploring opportunity To be happy and secure, What is in the future I promise you we'll be, alright
Bridge
Chorus
