The artist I have chosen for my unsigned artist coursework is Lizzie Calvert.
The song I am picking to use is called Listen Up. These are the lyrics to the song:
Is it such a shock I’m here?
Leading myself and I’m female
Your music’s good for a girl
I’m sorry is this 1912?
Don’t you ever say that again
Cos boy I can defend
Listening’s with the ears not the eyes
And I’m not gonna compromise this time
Listen up I’m in the room
Time to make you all look like fools
You never saw me as competition
But guess what you was missing
It’s time for you to listen
It’s time for you to listen up listen up
I didn’t realise you could write like that
I just assumed you were like all the others that,
Stand there, look pretty and don’t even get no where
That’s a pity
Listen here girl you gotta change yourself
Looking like that you ain’t gonna sell us stuff
I don’t wanna here another word from your mouth
Unless it’s making us one hundred grand
Don’t you ever say that again
Cos boy I can defend
Listening’s with the ears not the eyes
And I’m not gonna compromise this time
Listen up I’m in the room
Time to make you all look like fools
You never saw me as competition
But guess what you was missing
It’s time for you to listen
It’s time for you to listen up listen up
What were they fighting for
What did they fight it for
We’re back to how it was before
I don’t wanna live a life where I'm at war
If you’d only understand
Ignorance is letting you down
If they put you down
Stand up and tell them now
Don’t you ever say that again (don't you ever say that again)
Cos boy I can defend
Listening’s with the ears not the eyes
And I’m not gonna compromise this time
Listen up I’m in the room
Time to make you all look like fools
You never saw me as competition
But guess what you was missing
It’s time for you to listen
It’s time for you to listen up listen up
