JESSIE J - BANG BANG
With Ariana Grande & Nicki Minaj
She Got A Body Like An Hourglass
But I Can Give It To You All The Time
She Got A Booty Like A Cadillac
But I Can Send You Into Overdrive
(You've Been Waiting For That, Step On Up, Swing Your Bat)
See Anybody Could Be Bad To You
You Need A Good Girl To Blow Your Mind, Yeah
Bang, Bang Into The Room
I Know You Want It
Bang, Bang All Over You
I'll Let You Have It

She Might've Let You Hold Her Hand In School
But I'm Ma Show You How To Graduate

Just Come And Show Me What Your Momma Gave
(You've Got A Very Big (Shhh) Mouth, But Don't Say A Thing)
See Anybody Could Be Good To You
You Need A Bad Girl To Blow Your Mind

SONG FACTS

Producer(s): Max Martin, Rickard Göransson, Ilya
This Powerhouse Anthem Was Released As The Lead Single From Jessie J's Third Album. It Finds Her Linking Up With Ariana Grande And Nicki Minaj. The Song Was Made Available On July 29, 2014 Through Republic Records.
The Song Can Also Be Found On The Deluxe Edition Of Grande's My Everything Album.
There Are Three Verses On This Song, Which Is One More Than Most Pop Songs. It Works Because Minaj Takes The Third Verse, Providing A Different Voice And Raising The Energy Level Right At The Point Where The Listener Is Likely To Start Losing Interest.
The Song's Music Video Was Shot Over Two Days In Los Angeles And Directed By Hannah Lux Davis (Lil Wayne's "Love Me," Jason Derulo's "Marry Me"). Balancing Three Divas In One Clip Was No Easy Task For The Director. "Politically, We Had To Make Sure Everybody Had The Proper Amount Of Screen Time And Attention," Davis Recalled To Billboard Magazine.
This Was Written For Ariana Grande, Who Hated Her Original Recording, So Republic Records Executive Wendy Goldstein Got Jessie J And Nicki Minaj To Record Vocals Instead. Goldstein Recalled What Happened Next To Billboard Magazine: "I Was Scared To Send It To Ari. So I Sent It To [Republic Records Chairman/Ceo] Monte Lipman And Said, 'Play This For Ariana.' When She Heard It, She Was Like, 'I Want It Back.'"
