 TITLE: Rush Me ARTIST: Natasha Iver WRITERS: Natasha Iver, Reza Vranitzky, Michael R. Young, Sonja Montgomery LENGTH: 3:38 GENRE: Pop, dance PRODUCER: Natasha Iver, Reza Vranitzky LABEL: Songs to Love & Die By RELEASED: January 17th, 2015 From the Album: TBA
Natasha Iver's newest single, "Rush Me" gives her quickly growing mass of fans a taste of her music that they haven't had yet - a real love song. The song that Natasha started her career with - "My Boyfriend Will Hate This Song (Dirty Metal Music Fan)" - although was about the person she was currently dating, actually had nothing to do with their relationship besides the fact that they had differing music tastes. Her most recent song - "Tashi" - focused on the complete opposite of love: exes. In the song, she sang directly to all her exes, asking them if they regretted how badly they treated her now that she has a following and is becoming successful. Natasha has obviously been ramping up to start releasing a debut album soon, so for a final single before the release, she decided to give everybody that final song that seems necessary when trying to become the next biggest pop star: The love song.
The song tells the story of two people who are tired of love, and who think that real love doesn't actually exist. The two people find each other without really looking for each other, and find that they're kindred spirits in that aspect. Natasha tells the story only for her point of view, admitting that while she thought that she was done with love, after finding this man who feels the same way, now she feels herself falling in love with him. The two have conversations about the love that they used to have, and how it got away, and Natasha tells us again that while she thought that love was done with her, she found another love. Singing directly to the man in the song, she tells him that it's him. Natasha passionately tells her new love that she knows that he's been through a lot of heartbreak and misery from love, but she has as well, and if anything, now they can be broken together. In the chorus, Natasha continues to sing directly to the man in the song, asking him to call her his "queen." She admits that she's afraid to fall in love again, but it's so easy to fall in love with him, and that she thinks she'll be fine as long as he promises not to rush her. The second part of the chorus tells the second half of that musical conversation she's having with this new love, where she explains that she's not going to leave him like other past lovers has. Natasha understands that he's afraid to fall in love, just like she is, but she's sure that everything will be fine as long as he promises not to rush her. While the sentiment is sweet, many critics could point out that while Natasha is asking for her new love not to rush her, she is - in turn - seeming to rush him, asking him to call her certain pet names and putting him on the spot with her proclamation of love.
In the second verse, Natasha describes how hanging out with her new love is now that she knows that she's in love with him. In short, it's a little awkward. Natasha struggles with how she should show or let this new love know that she's into him. She describes a specific moment where they were sitting next to each other, their bodies so close that she could touch him. She went to hold his hand, but in nervousness and fear, she couldn't move her hand to follow through, and so she just sat there next to him. The chorus repeats, going in the bridge, where Natasha continues to ask her new love to call her by pet names, like "queen" and "his girl." Really putting more pressure on the situation there, Natasha. She repeats the chorus again, and then begins the final verse, which brings the entire song together.
In the final verse, she tells him again that she knows that he's had his heart broken a number of times, but she has as well, so now they can be broken and damaged together. She then goes on to tell him that she's ready to start a new love with somebody, and the one that she's thinking of starting it with is him, because now she feels like she's ready. In the final line, she asks her new love to rush her, ending the song.
We weren't looking for each other
Both had enough of the one-week-lovers
But then I found you
And I had to wonder
We spoke about love getting away
Couldn't find a reason it should stay
Love was through
But I found another
And that is you
I know you've had your share of broken hearts
But I'm damaged with you
Tell me I'm your queen, babe
I'm scared to fall in love
With you, it's easy
Just promise not to rush me
Told you I would stay, babe
Let me be your passion
You're scared to fall in love
Just promise not to rush me, rush me, yeah
I know you've had your share of broken hearts
But I'm damaged with you
Tell me I'm your queen, babe
I'm scared to fall in love
With you, it's easy
Just promise not to rush me, rush me, yeah
I didn't know how to let it show
Everything I wanted you to know
Talking to you
Makes it feel like it's summer
Sitting next to you, our bodies so close
Wanted to hold your hand
But my fingers froze
Love was through
But I found another
And that is you
I know you've had your share of broken hearts
But I'm damaged with you
Tell me I'm your queen, babe
I'm scared to fall in love
With you, it's easy
Just promise not to rush me
Told you I would stay, babe
Let me be your passion
You're scared to fall in love
Just promise not to rush me, rush me, yeah
I know you've had your share of broken hearts
But I'm damaged with you
Tell me I'm your queen, babe
I'm scared to fall in love
With you, it's easy
Just promise not to rush me
Tell me I'm your queen, babe
Tell me I'm your girl
Tell me I'm your queen, babe
Tell me I'm your girl
Tell me I'm your queen, babe
I'm scared to fall in love
With you, it's easy
Just promise not to rush me
Told you I would stay, babe
Let me be your passion
You're scared to fall in love
Just promise not to rush me, rush me, yeah
I know you've had your share of broken hearts
But I'm damaged with you
Tell me I'm your queen, babe
I'm scared to fall in love
With you, it's easy
Just promise not to rush me
Told you I would stay, babe
Let me be your passion
You're scared to fall in love
Just promise not to rush me, rush me, yeah
I know you've had your share of broken hearts
But I'm damaged with you
We could start a new love, you're who I'm thinking of
Because I think I'm ready
Rush me, rush me, yeahSOUNDS LIKE:
