Quelles sont les paroles de Wake Up de Hilary Duff ?
Chanson inédite intégrée en 2005 à "Most Wanted", premier best of d'Hilary Duff, "Wake Up" est, de l'aveu même de la chanteuse, un titre léger inspiré par la dance-pop des années 80. Malgré un succès commercial notable, la chanson a reçu bon nombre de critiques mitigées de la profession, notamment de par la vacuité de ses paroles.
Genèse
Avec sa musique composée par Dead Executives et des paroles de Hilary Duff, "Wake Up" est une chanson conçue comme un morceau de fête, célébrant la joie d'être une adolescente qui s'amuse et danse avec ses amies en boîte.
"Wake Up" bénéficie ainsi d'un clip à son image. On peut y voir Duff se préparer pour une soirée en boîte et rejoindre ses amies aux quatre coins de la planète, pour y danser toute la nuit.
Paroles
There's people talking They talk about me They know my name They think they know everything But they don't know anything About me.
Give me a dance floor Give me a dj Play me a record Forget what they say Cause I need to go Need to getaway tonight.
Chorus #1: I put my makeup on a Saturday night I try to make it happen Try to make it all right I know I make mistakes I'm living life day to day It's never really easy but it's ok.
Chorus #2 : Wake Up Wake Up On a Saturday night Could be New York Maybe Hollywood and Vine London, Paris maybe Tokyo There's something going on anywhere I go Tonight Tonight Yeah, tonight.
The city's restless It's all around me People in motion Sick of all the same routines And they need to go They need to get away Tonight.
Chorus #1 x1 Chorus #2 x1
People all around you Everywhere that you go People all around you They don't really know you Everybody watching like it's some kind of show Everybody's watching They don't really know you now (They don't really know you) (They don't really know you) And forever.

Wake Up Wake Up On a Saturday night Could be New York Maybe Hollywood and Vine London, Paris maybe Tokyo There's something going on anywhere I go Tonight Tonight Yeah, tonight.
