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”.

English

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
