Whew! You can get in the building, people know your name, but you’re a has-been. ‘Cause my name’s a reminder of a pop song people forgot Posner had a top ten single, but he couldn’t replicate it. I’m just a singer who already blew his shot Trust is everything in this world, if you’ve got no one to trust, if you’re not trustworthy, you’re gonna be uber-lonely.Īnd there’s nothing like being broke, losing your wheels, no one wants to hit you up on the bus because they know you’re a loser.

But when they find out stardom doesn’t solve their internal problems they can’t write hits anymore, they find out their only hope is to be honest with themselves, find out who they truly are and change. Guys become stars, strive for achievement, for acceptance, for the perks because they want to get laid. You don’t ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone What are all these people gonna do when we go to driverless cars, owned by the man called up by an app? Youngsters know it’s your identity that counts, the rest can be summoned on demand. is all about image, what you drive, where you live, you show your wealth, it’s the opposite of the east coast, the east coast of yesteryear, when artists could still live in Manhattan. I’m a real big baller ’cause I made a million dollars

And I’m not saying users should be put in jail, but I’ve never had a trip as good as a live experience, I’ve got more regrets than good times, and I think of all the burned out people I know who smoke ad infinitum, the dope of today, not the mild stuff of yesteryear, which will check you out and remove you from your pain, as well as society. You can’t say anything negative about drugs in our culture, they’re the coolest thing going. How much do we do to look cool? We’re afraid to be ourselves, we put ourselves at risk, image is everything, if they knew who we truly were they wouldn’t include us.Īnd I barely knew who Mike Posner was, other than he’d had some success before.īut he hadn’t had any since, which is what inspired him to write this song.Īnd when I finally got sober, felt ten years older Now there’s nothing uncommon about that, that’s what you’re supposed to do in the Balearics. The truth is Mike Posner released it last summer and if you hear it you’ll be hard-pressed to believe it’s the same song, the original’s a slowed-down acoustic number, that’s heartfelt and suffers from going nowhere musically, but lyrically…it’s the opposite of today’s I’m a driver, I’m a winner, all positivity, all optimism all the time world. I’d been tracking the song, figuring it was another EDM number with a hooky sound, but little meaning. That’s the change today, acts have been pulled down from the stage, into the crowd, that’s how you know you’ve really made it, when your fans see you as a regular person, one who has a moment of genius that makes them feel good.Īnd “I Took A Pill In Ibiza” makes people feel good.

Just when you think we’ve hit the end of the line, that music has got no future, you encounter something like this.Įverybody didn’t sing along like this back in 1972, everybody didn’t know all the words, we were all uptight, we were all too stoned, but I first noticed this at Taylor Swift shows, before she went pop, when she was still country, when the lyrics were everything and the music served the words…everybody knew them by heart and sang along with them. Hopefully he goes back to writing pop songs for people who actually want to be in the spotlight or fully embraces his singer-songwriter tendencies.Mike Posner, “I Took a Pill In Ibiza” Live at The Roxy – Los Angeles, March 8th 2016 I get that he doesn't want to be a pop star but he got famous (again) for one song and then refused to play that song for his fans even though that was why most of them went to see him in the first place, which was pretty fucking rude. Mind you at this time he was the most played artist on spotify, pretty much solely for Ibiza and he rarely played it, and we he did play it he performed a semi-acoustic version, instead of the EDM remix that everyone knows. i can't tell you how many time we booked him for massive audiences who only knew him for I took a pill in Ibiza and then he would perform acoustic tracks from his album that less than 60 thousands people bought in the first month. i felt bad for him because he was amazing at writing these pop songs that completely took over top 40 radio, whether he was performing them or he wrote them for someone else, but he never fully committed to (or should i say never wanted to) be the type of massive pop star his popular songs propelled him to be. So i was on his management team as an intern over spring and mike is a humble, genuine, nice guy but fuck was he hard to work with.
