"Hang with Me" is a song by Swedish recording artist Robyn, taken from her sixth studio album, Body Talk Pt. 2 (2010). It was released as the album's lead single via digital download on 16 August 2010, in Sweden, and one day later in the United States. An acoustic version of the song had previously been included on Body Talk Pt. 1, in June 2010. The song was written and produced by Klas Åhlund, who wrote it for Swedish singer Paola Bruna who originally recorded it in 2002. Åhlund re-wrote it, added a chorus and made it more uptempo for Robyn's version. The electropop song carries a club beat, with synth arpeggios and energetic bass. Lyrically, it speaks of falling in love and being scared, and trust in a relationship.
The song was met with generally positive reviews from critics, who compared it to her previous singles "With Every Heartbeat" and "Dancing on My Own". The single reached number two on the Sverigetopplistan chart, becoming Robyn's eighth top ten hit in her native country. It also reached the top ten on the Norwegian chart, and the Hot Dance Club Songs chart in the US. The accompanying music video was directed by Max Vitali when Robyn was on tour in the United Kingdom. The clip shows scenes from concerts, her tour bus, in-store appearances and Robyn's sightseeing in London. The concept behind the video was Robyn wanting to make a simple video to show all the touring she had done in 2010. Robyn performed the acoustic version of the song on an episode of Gossip Girl, and included it on the set list for the Body Talk Tour (2010–11).
With Me may refer to:
"With Me", the first single in the UK, is an R&B song performed by American group Destiny's Child for their debut studio album Destiny's Child (1998). The song was produced by Jermaine Dupri and Manuel Seal Jr. and received a positive reception from music critics. According to the group "With Me" was meant to be an answer back to the Usher song "U Make Me Wanna". The song contains elements from Master P's song "Freak Hoes". It was not included on Destiny's Child's greatest hits album #1's because it was never released in the U.S.
In the video, Beyoncé appears as a mermaid in a bluish water scene. LaTavia appears as a genie in an orange-colored room. Kelly is a giantess in a city nightclub. LeToya is a "spider-woman" climbing a web made of metal chains with a purple background. The members appear together in gray outfits in one scene and in red dresses in a dark room covered with eyes. Jermaine Dupri appears watching the women in a slideshow. Beyoncé's younger sister Solange makes a cameo as well. The music video was never released to a video compilation nor to an enhanced CD, but is uploaded on YouTube in certain countries.
"With Me" is the third single from Sum 41's 2007 studio album Underclass Hero. The first live performance of "With Me" was on January 26, 2008 at the Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida. On February 4, Sum 41 announced that they had filmed the video for "With Me", and the song was later featured on Season 1, Episode 7 of Gossip Girl. The song was featured on the commercial for the 2009 Fox series More to Love. The song was ranked first in the Canadian Singles Chart.
The music video was released on the band's MySpace page on February 28. The band announced that the video was shot near Toronto, Ontario. It starts off with Deryck Whibley playing an acoustic guitar as shots show around the house he is playing in. There are many shots of pictures and people (including one of the Shriners). Each of these people has different uses for pictures and photos (e.g. the old man uses his pictures to remember his old days in the army and the young couple use them to take photos of themselves together). There is then shots of Deryck, Cone, and Steve Jocz playing in a room where they play the chorus of the song; they then use this room to play the rest of the song in. We then learn more about the people and why their pictures are so important to them. More is revealed about them as the second verse goes on. Then, just before the second chorus, a framed picture with a moving image of Deryck walking is shown. As Deryck walks, the environment behind him changes rapidly showing many different places. After this, the song goes back to being acoustic for 8 bars. During this, Deryck is shown playing his acoustic guitar again. Also, the people in the house begin to freeze frame and turn into framed pictures of themselves. The song then continues and ends. The video shows the many aspects of the song.
Will you tell me once again
How we're gonna be just friends?
If you're for real and not pretend
Then I guess you can hang with me
When my patience wearing thin
When I'm ready to give in
Will you pick me up again?
Then I guess you can hang with me
And if you do me right
I'm gonna do right by you
And if you keep it tight
I'm gonna confide in you
I know what's on your mind
There will be time for that too
If you hang with me
Hang with me
Just don't fall recklessly, headlessly in love with me
'Cause it's gonna be
All heartbreak, wistfully painful and insanity
If we agree, oh, ooh, woah, you can hang with me
When you see me drift astray
Out of touch and out of place
Will you tell me to my face?
Then I guess you can hang with me
And if you do me right
I'm gonna do right by you
And if you keep it tight
I'm gonna confide in you
I know what's on your mind
There will be time for that too
If you hang with me
Just don't fall recklessly, headlessly in love with me
'Cause it's gonna be
All heartbreak, wistfully painful and insanity
If we agree, you can hang with me
Just don't fall recklessly, headlessly in love with me
'Cause it's gonna be
All heartbreak, wistfully painful and insanity
If we agree, oh, ooh, woah, you can hang with me
