Love Me (The 1975 song)

"Love Me" is a song by the English rock band The 1975. It was the lead single from their second studio album, I Like It When You Sleep, for You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware of It (2016), released on Dirty Hit.

Background

According to Matthew Healy, the band's vocalist, the song was born out of confusion in response to the band's success. He spoke on the song's genesis to Billboard:

The song has been compared to "Fame" by David Bowie, as well as "Burning Down the House" by Talking Heads.

Release

The song debuted on BBC Radio 1 on October 8, 2015 as Annie Mac's Hottest Record In The World. The group performed the song alongside "The Sound" on their appearance on Saturday Night Live on February 6, 2016.

Reception

Reviews of the song were positive. Matthew Horton of NME wrote that the song "fizzes with overweening confidence, fitting for a song Healy says is about narcissism." Nick Williams at Billboard dubbed it "an impressive coming-of-age shift" and a "spirited step away from the radio-friendly teen rock of its debut." Brennan Carley of Spin's response was favorable: "A track that wouldn’t be out of place on any Neon Indian record, albeit with more heavily U.K.-accented vocals, "Love Me" shows the band loosening their grip on accomplishing much of anything beyond the sprawling, joyous fun of making good tunes."

Love Me (Justin Bieber song)

"Love Me" is a song by Canadian recording artist, Justin Bieber. The track was written by Bruno Mars, Ari Levine, and Philip Lawrence, and produced by Bill Malina and DJ Frank E. It was released exclusively to iTunes as the first promotional single from his debut studio release, My World on October 26, 2009.

An electropop song which also contains dance-pop and R&B music, the chorus interpolates the 1996 single "Lovefool" by the Swedish band The Cardigans. "Love Me" was one of the most well received tracks on the album, with critics complimenting its electro and club feel, and its usage of the "Lovefool" sample.

The song peaked in Canada and in the U.S. at twelve and thirty-seven, respectively. The song also charted in the United Kingdom on its main chart and R&B chart, and in Australia. The music video for the song was released on August 3, 2010 and serves as a "tribute to his worldwide fans, thanking them for their support". The dominant scenes are made of up of live performances, behind-the-scenes footage, and Bieber standing in front of a blue and white backdrop dancing. Bieber opened every show on his My World Tour with the song.

Love Me (Lil Wayne song)

"Love Me" (originally titled "Bitches Love Me") is a song by American rapper Lil Wayne featuring Drake and Future for the former's tenth studio album I Am Not a Human Being II. It was released on January 18, 2013, by Young Money Entertainment, Cash Money Records, and Republic Records as the third single from the project. The song was written and produced by Mike WiLL Made It, with additional songwriting by Lil Wayne, Drake, Future, and Asheton Hogan. It also appeared for free download on the Rich Gang mixtape Rich Gang: Allstars.

The song became a top ten hit, peaking at number nine on the US Billboard Hot 100 and becoming Lil Wayne's 18th top ten single on that chart. It also became Future's first top 10 hit and most successful single as of January 2016.

Background

The song leaked online in late December 2012, after Cash Money’s DJ E-Feezy premiered I Am Not a Human Being II's third single on December 29, 2012. The artwork for the single was made by Kanye West's creative content company, DONDA. On January 30, 2013, an animated version of the cover was released. Lil Wayne interpolates "Are You That Somebody" by Aaliyah in his verse, "Cause I really need somebody, so tell me you're that somebody."

Atlas

An atlas is a collection of maps; it is typically a map of Earth or a region of Earth, but there are atlases of the other planets (and their satellites) in the Solar System. Furthermore, atlases of anatomy exist, mapping out the human body or other organisms. Atlases have traditionally been bound into book form, but today many atlases are in multimedia formats. In addition to presenting geographic features and political boundaries, many atlases often feature geopolitical, social, religious and economic statistics. They also have information about the map and places in it.

Etymology

The word atlas dates from 1636, first in reference to the English translation of Atlas, sive cosmographicae meditationes de fabrica mundi (1585) by Flemish geographer Gerhardus Mercator, who might have been the first to use this word in this way. A picture of the Titan Atlas holding up the world appeared on the frontispiece of this and other early map collections.

History

The first work that contained systematically arranged woodcut maps of uniform size, intended to be published in a book, thus representing the first modern atlas, was De Summa totius Orbis (1524–26) by the 16th-century Italian cartographer Pietro Coppo. Nonetheless, this distinction is conventionally awarded to the Flemish cartographer Abraham Ortelius who in 1570 published the collection of maps Theatrum Orbis Terrarum.

SM-65 Atlas

The SM-65 Atlas was the first operational intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) developed by the United States, and the first member of the Atlas rocket family. It was built for the U.S. Air Force by Convair Division of General Dynamics at the Kearny Mesa assembly plant north of San Diego, California. Atlas became operational as an ICBM in October 1959 and was used as a first stage for satellite launch vehicles for half a century. The Atlas missile's warhead was over 100 times more powerful than the bomb dropped over Nagasaki in 1945.

An initial development contract was given to Consolidated Vultee Aircraft (Convair) on 16 January 1951 for what was then called MX-1593, but at a relatively low priority. The 1953 testing of the first dry fuel H-bomb in the Soviet Union led to the project being dramatically accelerated. The initial design completed by Convair in 1953 was larger than the missile that eventually entered service. Estimated warhead weight was lowered from 8,000 lb (3,630 kg) to 3,000 lb (1,360 kg) based on highly favorable U.S. nuclear warhead tests in early 1954, and on 14 May 1954 the Atlas program was formally given the highest national priority. A major development and test contract was awarded to Convair on 14 January 1955 for a 10-foot (3 m) diameter missile to weigh about 250,000 lb (113,400 kg). Atlas development was tightly controlled by the Air Force's Western Development Division, WDD, later part of the Air Force Ballistic Missile Division. Contracts for warhead, guidance and propulsion were handled separately by WDD. The first successful flight of a highly instrumented Atlas missile to full range occurred 28 November 1958. Atlas ICBMs were deployed operationally from 31 October 1959 to 12 April 1965.

Atlas Mountains

The Atlas Mountains is a mountain range which stretches across northwestern Africa extending about 2,500 km (1,600 mi) through Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia. The highest peak is Jebel Toubkal, with an elevation of 4,167 metres (13,671 ft) in southwestern Morocco. The Atlas ranges separate the Mediterranean and Atlantic coastlines from the Sahara Desert. The population of the Atlas Mountains is mainly Berbers. The terms for 'mountain' in some Berber languages are adrar and adras, believed to be cognate with the toponym.

The mountains are home to a number of plant and animal species unique in Africa, often more like those of Europe; many of them are endangered and some have already gone extinct. Examples include the Barbary macaque, the Atlas bear (Africa's only species of bear; now extinct), the Barbary leopard, the Barbary stag, Barbary sheep, the Barbary lion (extinct in the wild), the Atlas Mountain badger, the North African elephant (extinct), the North African aurochs (extinct), Cuvier's gazelle, the Northern bald ibis, dippers, the Atlas mountain viper, the Atlas cedar, the European black pine, and the Algerian oak.
