LADY GAGA - YOU AND I
It's Been A Long Time
Since I Came Around
Been A Long Time
But I'm Back In Town
This Time I'm Not Leaving Without You
You Taste Like Whiskey
When You Kiss Me, Oh
I'll Give Anything Again
To Be Your Baby Doll
This Time I'm Not Leaving Without You
You Said
Sit Back Down
Where You Belong
In The Corner Of My Bar
With Your High Heels On
Sit Back Down
On The Couch Where We
Made Love For The First Time
And You Said To Me
(Something)
Something, Something About This Place
(Oh Oh, Oh Oh)
(Something)
Something About Lonely Nights
And My Lipstick On Your Face
(Something)
Something, Something About My
Cool Nebraska Guyy
Yeah, Something About
Baby, You And I
Been Two Years
Since I Let You Go
I Could've Listened To A Joke
Or Rock And Roll
Muscle Cars Drove A Truck
Right Through My Heart
On My Birthday
You Sang Me A Heart Of Gold
With The Guitar Humming
And No Clothes
This Time I'm Not Leaving Without You
Oh Oh Oh, Oh Oh Oh
Sit Back Down
Where You Belong
In The Corner Of My Bar
With Your High Heels On
Sit Back Down
On The Couch Where We
Made Love For The First Time
And You Said To Me
(Something)
Something, Something About This Place
(Oh Oh, Oh Oh)
(Something)
Something About Lonely Nights
And My Lipstick On Your Face
(Something)
Something, Something About My
Cool Nebraska Guy
Yeah, Something About
Baby, You And I
You And I
You, You And I
You, You And I
You, You And I, I
You And I
You, You And I
Oh Yeah, I'd Rather Die
Without You And I
Come On!
Put Your Drinks Up!
You Got A Whole Lot Of Money
But We Still Pay Rent
Cause You Can't Buy A House In Heaven
There's Only Three Men That
I'ma Serve My Whole Life
It's My Daddy And Nebraska And Jesus Christ
(Something)
Something, Something About The Chase
(Oh Oh, Oh Oh)
(6 Whole Years)
(Something)
I'm A New York Woman
Born To Run You Down
Still Want My Lipstick All Over Your Face
(Something)
Something, Something About
Just Knowing When It's Right
So Put Your Drinks Up For Nebraska
For Nebraska, Nebraska
I Love Ya
You And I
You, You And I
Baby, I Rather Die
Without You And I, I
You And I
You, You And I
Nebraska I Rather Die
Without You And I, I
It's Been A Long Time
Since I Came Around
Been A Long
But I'm Back In Town
And This Time I'm Not Leaving Without You
SONG FACTS
Writer(s): Stefani Germanotta
Producer(s): Lady Gaga, Robert John "Mutt" Lange
This Song By American Recording Artist Lady Gaga Was Premiered During Her Performance In England At Elton John's 12th Annual White Tie And Tiara Ball On June 24, 2010. On Her Twitter, The New York Star Described "You And I" As A "New Song ... Written In Ny On The Piano I Grew Up On." Gaga Described The Song To Her Audience As A Bit Of A "Rock-And-Roll Tune." She Went On To Say That It Will Probably Never Be Used As One Of Her Singles, But The Song Is Very Dear To Her Heart.
Legendary Queen Guitarist Brian May Plays Guitar On This Track. "It's Always Been Gaga's Dream To Perform As Queen. If It Wasn't For Queen, There Would Be No Gaga," A Source Told Uk Newspaper The Daily Mirror. "This Collaboration With Brian May Means The World To Her."
American Idol Contestant Haley Reinhart Performed The Song On The Contest A Few Weeks Before The Release Of Born This Way. She'd Been Presented With The Tune By In-House Mentor Jimmy Iovine And Sang It With Gaga's Blessing.
The Song Finds Gaga Singing About A Passionate Love Affair With A "Nebraska Guy" Whilst The Lyric Sheet Features Umlauts Over Every Letter "U."
The Video Was Shot In Springfield, Nebraska. Gaga Explained The Video's Concept To Omaha Radio Station Channel 94.1: "The Premise Of The Video Is That I've Walked All The Way From New York City To Nebraska To Get [My Boyfriend] Back. I'm Walking With No Luggage, It's Just Me And My Ankles Are Kind Of Bleeding A Little Bit And There's Grass Stuck In My Shoes And I've Got This Outfit On – It's Real New York Sort Of Clothing And I'm Sprinting. And The [Video Is About The] Idea That When You're Away From Someone You Love, It's Torture," She Continued. "I Knew I Wanted The Video To Be About Me Sprinting Back And Walking Hundreds Of Thousands Of Miles To Get Him Back."
The Wedding Dress Gaga Wears In The Clip Belongs To Her Mom. "It's So Funny, Because When I Was Younger, I Hated My Mother's Wedding Dress," Gaga Admitted To Sway. "I Would Always Say, 'Mom, Why Don't You Have A Long Train And A Tiara? I Don't Understand.' ... I Remember I Was About 13 Or 14 When I Fell In Love With My Mother's Wedding Dress. I Asked Her If I Could Use It In The Video, Because The Love My Mother And Father Have Shared For Almost 30 Years Now Is What I Hope To Have Someday."
The Black And White Artwork For The Single Features A Male Character Created By Lady Gaga Named Jo Calderone. Gaga's Male Alter Ego First Appeared In June 2011 In A Series Of Photos By UK Artist Nick Knight And Also Turns Up In The Song's Music Video.
Gaga's Co-Star In The Video Is The Actor And Model Taylor Kinney, Who Is Best Known For Portraying Mason Lockwood In The Vampire Diaries Tv Series. The Pair Started Dating For Real After Filming The Clip. The Singer Recalled To Us Talk Show Host Ellen Degeneres How Kinney Surprised Her With A Kiss And That Was The Start Of Their Romance. "We Were In The Middle Of This Scene And I Remember That He Kissed Me And It Wasn't Scripted For Him To Kiss Me And I Was Sort Of Like Was Um, You Know, Was That Real Or Was That Fake? And He Didn't Really Say Anything And That Was Fine By Me And We Kept Filming."
