It's our party we can do what we want
It's our party we can say what we want
It's our party we can love who we want
We can kiss who we want
We can sing what we want
It's our party we can do what we want
It's our party we can say what we want
It's our party we can love who we want
We can kiss who we want
We can sing what we want
Red cups and sweaty bodies everywhere
Hands in the air like we don't care
'Cause we came to have so much fun now
Bet somebody here might get some now
If you're not ready to go home
Can I get a "Hell, no!"?
'Cause we gonna go all night
'Til we see the sunlight, alright
So la da di da di
We like to party
Dancing with Molly
Doing whatever we want
This is our house
These are our rules
And we can't stop
And we won't stop
Can't you see it's we who own the night?
Can't you see it's we who 'bout that life?
And we can't stop
And we won't stop
We run things, things don't run we
Don't take nothing from nobody
Yeah
It's our party we can do what we want
It's our party we can say what we want
It's our party we can love who we want
We can kiss who we want
We can sing what we want
To my home girls here with the big butt
Shaking it like we at a strip club
Remember only God can judge ya
Forget the haters 'cause somebody loves ya
And everyone in line in the bathroom
Trying to get a line in the bathroom
We all so turned up here
Getting turned up, yeah, yeah
So la da di da di
We like to party
Dancing with Molly
Doing whatever we want
This is our house
This is our rules
And we can't stop
And we won't stop
Can't you see it's we who own the night?
Can't you see it's we who 'bout that life?
And we can't stop
And we won't stop
We run things, things don't run we
Don't take nothing from nobody
Yeah, yeah
It's our party we can do what we want
It's our party we can say what we want
It's our party we can love who we want
We can kiss who we want
We can sing what we want
It's our party we can do what we want to
It's our house we can love who we want to
It's our song we can sing if we want to
It's my mouth I can say what I want to
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And we can't stop, yeah
And we won't stop, oh
Can't you see it's we who own the night?
Can't you see it's we who 'bout that life?
And we can't stop
And we won't stop
We run things, things don't run we
Don't take nothing from nobody
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
On the heels of a summer tour of the U.S. with Big Dipper and Conquistador, Portland Indie musician Logan Lynn has just released an epic cover of "We Can't Stop" (by Miley Cyrus) that is going to blow your mind.
Produced by Gino Mari, who also produced Lynn's 2012 release "Tramp Stamps and Birthmarks", the "We Can't Stop" cover features Lynn with a completely organic instrumentation unlike anything else he has recorded to date. "I thought what Miley did on the VMAs was hilarious," Lynn said, "I mean...Robin Thicke is a misogynistic pig, but that's not Miley's fault. She's just young and awkward and having fun. I would have totally Twerked on him and everyone else in my way at her age. Going nuts and telling authority figures to go screw themselves is part of growing up. Also, where do I get one of those giant foam fingers she had for that performance? Is that a sports thing?"
According to Lynn, this cover (and his latest single, "Everything You Touch Turns To Gold", released 8/13) are a glimpse into the new direction he and his collaborators are headed sonically. "I have to keep changing things up or I get bored. This round I've put down the dance music a little and Gino has been playing all kinds of instruments instead. It's been turning out really warm and special so far as a result. I figured this cold, dead pop song was the perfect thing to try and bring to life. I actually like Miley's version, too...but it's not particularly warm." Lynn and Mari are currently back in the studio writing and recording what will be Lynn's 8th studio album.
