Burke, Alexandra - Before It Explodes Lyrics






Ohhh Ohhh
Is not a question of love
‘Cause our love has never changed
But all the little things keep piling up
And life keeps getting in the way

Don’t make it harder than it is
We both knew it’d come to this
Better now than in a year
More night of tears and we both hate each other
The fuse is already lit, so how about a final kiss
Just let it go…

And stop the madness before it explodes
Before it’s out of our control
Lets stop the madness before it explodes
We gotta let it go
Before it all explodes

Somethings we wont understand
And we’re both so tired of being misunderstood
So lets just turn around and walk away
And hold on to what was good

Don’t make it harder than it is
We both knew it’d come to this
Better now than in a year
More nights of tears and we both hate each other
The fuse is already lit, so how about a final kiss
Just let it go…

And stop the madness before it explodes
Before it’s out of our control
Lets stop the madness before it explodes
We gotta let it go
Before it all explodes

There ain’t nothing that can save us
But you’re close to the edge
And what’s the use of going on
If we’re lying to each other
Every word that is said
Its too late for us now
Cause we can never count down
It's getting close
It's gonna blow

Stop the madness before it explodes
Before is out of our control
Lets stop the madness before it explodes
We gotta let it go
Before it all explodes

Gotta stop the madness ohhh

Five, four, three two, one…

    I prefer Charice's version because it's more powerful, but i don't spit on Alexandra Burke, she is beautiful and has a nice voice too.

  8. J.... D....

    Charice Version is much better.

  9. C.... D....

  10. C.... D....

    Alexandria doesn't have any emotions in it...so plain,you can't feel goose bumps! CHARICE IS 100 % BETTER!

  11. C.... D....

    Nope,u could never replace Charice. ..her vibrance is still there. ..she needs to face reality,people will always welcome Charice not Jake Zyrus? She should wake up and smell the coffee?.

    C.... D....

    Cecilia Degan he*

  12. B.... B....

    Much prefer Alexandra’s version to that Charice version! So much more sole and passion! Alexandra’s voice is insanely powerful

    B.... B....

    Fact: Charice is much better 💓👍😂

  13. H.... H....

    i like charice and bruno's version. Charice voice in Before it explodes got something like bravery or like anger in her tone. She really picture out the lyrics perfectly. Although I like Alexandra's husky voice. That's only an opinion. Sorry to those who will get offended.

  14. A.... ....

    Isn’t it avail on iTunes?

  15. D.... B....

    Alexandra sing this song better than charice, but i love high tone of charice 😁

  19. P.... S....

    all this time i thought it was alicia keys

  20. J.... W....

    Charice ❤❤❤

  21. B.... ....

    I like Alexandra's voice better than Charice but I prefer Charice's version because Charice and Bruno's voice go well together. Alexandra's voice doesn't blend well with Bruno's.

  22. W.... C....

    ouvindo em 2017

  23. G.... T....

    They definitely have that singing chemistry!

  24. C.... E....

    good and powerful voice alex :)
    ---Philippines :)

    C.... E....

    I have heard of charice and not heard her version .I would still prefer this one.

  25. G.... E....

    this song Alexandra Burke and bruno mars i love this version better than charice

    G.... E....

    are you sure charice version is incomparable no autotune like this girl listen first i think your downright deaf.

  26. e.... t....

    i prefer charice with this song,, bcoz she gave me chills to my spine ^^

    e.... t....

    And I prefer Burke.

    e.... t....

    i also prefer charics

  27. M.... B....

    I'm a filipina but I preffer this version over Charice 😂 #waybetter

  28. B.... ....

    At the end of the day, bruno's demo version of this song is better than charice and alexandra put together

    B.... ....

    I agree haha

  29. D.... H....

    I love this song your the best

  30. A.... L....

    Is this a old song?

    A.... L....

    +Adaiah Lewis No, its only 5 years old

  31. L.... l....

    Alexandra Burke's vocal weight is so amazing. I prefer this version to Charice's

  32. S.... H....

    Love Charice but Alexandra smashed it their voices go way better together

  33. D.... ....

    literally after almost 5 years people are still comparing charice and alexandra in the comments! FUCKING SHUT UPPPPPPP AND MOVE THE HELL ON

  34. V.... G....

    Charice and Bruno's voice have perfect combinations, they sang it smoothly.

  35. j.... m....

    They have same powerful voices, Charice and Alex but they differ on the kind of recording. Bruno Mars voice with charice was soft while his voice with Alex was huge.

  36. o.... a....

    Omg... BRUNO YOUR VOICE OH MA GAWD

  37. k.... ....

    And I think, that Alexandra Burke is better than Charice. Alexandra has this power in her voice, and Charice's voice is similary to many girls, she has nothing that singles out. But this is my opinion :)
    Alexandra Burke has very specific voice, and that's why I love her ^^

    k.... ....

    Really? What happened to those girls who's voice are similar to hers? Lol. Stop the hatred girl. Move on.

    k.... ....

    @Chinese Guy Without Corona virus if u know how to sing u will understand him

    k.... ....

    @Stenly WisalOC! I know how to sing. 😏

  38. K.... M....

    Honestly... I prefer charice's version and Bruno Mars. I didn't gets the chills to her.,but if it's charice?? Booooooom!!

  39. L.... M....

    Love u BRUNO MARS

  40. m.... a....

    nice one bruno...but in my opinion charice is better than the other girl:)

  41. J.... K....

    Alexandra you have a powerful voice!

  42. W.... E....

    Love it a lot. Bruno is ma maan. He is Amazing and she is to love it... thnx guys give us more

  43. M.... G....

    this song with bruno mars powerfull voice makes more better!

  44. I.... r....

    I loved it

  45. c.... c....

    how rude... i bet you cant even sing a low note songs

  46. c.... c....

    huh? bruno is an "ok" singer? he is a super awesome singer! theres a lot of singers there who can hit a high notes just like this girl though i wont deny that she is good. but bruno?? i dont think he is just OK. he is fantastic, his voice is very very good even when singing live and he can kick ass when he is in a concert. im not here for any discussions. just saying my opinion.

  47. J.... c....

    Love you Bruno Mars3

  48. b.... ....

    a million times pathetic? Well, your voice is a zillion times pathetic! haha

  49. e.... c....

    why soo bitter eh?

  50. e.... c....

    why soo bitter eh?

  51. N.... F....

    I like this version better but Charice's version is good too and its not a "pathetic version" as some would put it.

  52. R.... D....

    I love this I love Alexandra

  53. x.... ....

    this song is about orgasm

  54. M.... B....

    Bruno is much better!

  55. B.... E....

    amazing........before it explodes............

  56. J.... G....

    brunoo<3_

  57. V.... F....

    This sound way better with Bruno´s voice U___U

  58. J.... C....

    alexandra's voice is rough though.. like theres something stuck on here throat.. #justsayin #nohatin

  59. J.... H....

    Charice

  60. H.... N....

    okay so it's obvious to me that your one-sidedness is preventing you from thinking straight, so I think I'd rather not continue this pointless conversation with you.

  61. A.... b....

    Yeah I agree he is probably one of the best male singers out RIGHT NOW but that's because there is not that many so he still only OK

  62. t.... ....

    Why isnt this song out in the market.

  63. H.... N....

    eerm, you must be stupid if you're calling Bruno Mars 'OK', he is one of the greatest male vocalists out, and he is very unappreciated for a man of his talent. Of course I'm not putting Alexandra Burke down, she really is amazing, but downgrading Bruno Mars' talents is just ridiculous, what you just said is just like saying that chocolate or pizza is OK. false statements . :)

  64. A.... b....

    Erm Bruno is an OK singer, Alex on the other hand is a Fantastic singer and it really is as simple as that :)

  65. H.... N....

    no, its not that simple, they both have amazing tones, and large range's. The both of them are incredible singers and it would be stupid to make judgemental comparisons based on their equally fantastic voices.

  66. A.... b....

    but she is still a better singer simple as.. :)

  67. A.... b....

    oh and what alex is a fake artist?????

    erm I don't think so...

  68. l.... m....

    but we can't compare between a female voice and a male voice , she's an amazing singer and bruno is a real artist :)

  69. A.... b....

    Ermm no we are talking about vocal ability Alex slays most females and males in the music industry her voice is incredible..

  70. H.... N....

    probably because he's male and she's female, big difference right there.

  71. H.... N....

    that's pretty dumb :)

  72. c.... Z....

    love it

  73. c.... d....

    Je n'ai jamais su combien douce etait la voix d'un ange avant d'entendre la voix d'Alexandra Burke.

  74. B.... C....

    Bruno tho.. <3

  75. s.... ....

    oh my brunooooooooooooooooo <3.

  76. A.... T....

    well said my dear

  77. S.... S....

    Bruno has the BEST voice ever!

  78. V.... Q....

    I like Charices version WAY better.

  79. A.... b....

    Oh please Bruno is an average singer compare to Alexandra go look her up singing the silence its like comparing Rihanna's voice to Whitney Houston's voice don't even go there.

  80. o.... s....

    Guys..im a filipino...but honestly say.... this "alexandra burke and bruno mars duet" of before it explodes...is much million way more better what was our charice sang....

    This just be opinion...

    Im a uk xfactor avid fan..and charice fan too

    Not being offended to others...but like wat i said,this just be a plain opinion of mine...

    Enjoy ur day....

  81. D.... ....

    Bruno is much much much MUCH Better but she's good to I guess

  82. K.... J....

    like the version ;') two thumbs up.

  83. H.... B....

    Bruno... His voice is unbelievable!

  84. A.... A....

    BRUNO'S VOICE !

  85. Z.... L....

    Bruno Mars <33

  86. m.... ....

    brilliant duo. the huskiness of Alexandra's voice contrasts really well with Bruno's. Reason it was not released (just guessing) is that Simon Cowell was busy making the way clear for one direction and Cher because Alex left him round about the same time after getting fed up with waiting longer that 6 months to release her album. in other words Simon saw bigger $ signs with 1D. Sadly he was right. BUT i hope he makes it up to her

  87. X.... S....

    why are the comments always about the "charice version" being better then this? cut the crap. just enjoy THIS vid. you wanna comment about charice's then go to her vid.

  88. M.... ....

    I <3 this song <3

  89. K.... ....

    its not the orginal it was for alexandre first

  90. C.... N....

    *:* wunderful

  91. A.... b....

    There is no denying that charice is an incredible singer but Alexandra burkes voice is something special no matter what she sings its magic, Alex may not be the best vocally but in my opinion she is the best female singer out right now...

  92. M.... T....

    When I compare Alexandra version and Charice version I can't deny that Alexandra voice is matching with Bruno.. They have the same strength.. The Charice versions is softer, but I prefer this one. Alexandra & Bruno voice is blended well^^..

  93. K.... T....

    This version is a million times better than that filipina's pathetic version.

  94. m.... ....

    WOW WOW WOW!!!! Beautiful. Why wasn't THIS released. Does she have a record company and management??? What are they doing? This is beautiful. Cannot believe I knew nothing about it. When was it recorded. I LOVE IT. and i do not agree Charice version is best. Just listened to both and much prefer this. so emotional

  95. M.... I....

    Charice best

  96. t.... ....

    This is brilliant track.Why is it not released.This song shows more of her talent so much feeling in her voice

  97. f.... t....

    charice version much! better!

  98. L.... M....

    i love this version than charice's

  99. A.... M....

    It exploded...
