Jamie Cullum - I Took A Pill In Ibiza Lyrics
I took a pill in Ibiza
To show Avicii I was cool
When I finally got sober, felt 10 years older
But fuck it, it was something to do
I'm living out in LA
I'm a real big baller 'cause I made a million dollars
And I spend it on girls and shoes
You don't wanna be high like me
Never really knowing why like me
Don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
Never knowing who to trust like this
Don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
Darling, all I know are sad songs, are sad songs
I'm just a singer who already blew his shot
I get along with old timers
'Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot
And I can't keep a girl, no
'Cause as soon as the sun comes up
I cut 'em all loose and work's my excuse
But the truth is I can't open up
You don't wanna be high like me
Never really knowing why like me
Never don't wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
Never knowing who to trust like this
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
All I know are sad songs, are sad songs
Darling, all I know are sad songs, are sad songs, are sad songs
I took a plane to my home town
I brought my pride and my guitar
All my friends are all gone but there's manicured lawns
And the people still think I'm a star
I walked around downtown
I met some fans on Lafayette
They said tell us how to make it 'cause we're getting real impatient
So I looked 'em in the eye and said
Don't wanna be high like me
Never really knowing why like me
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
Don't wanna ride the bus like this
Never knowing who to trust like this
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
All I know are sad songs, are sad songs
Darling, all that I know are sad songs, are sad songs, are sad songs

Jamie, all your Song Society songs are great. I bought your first album in HK way back. I saw you play in Kings Cross last year. Thank you for the music ☺️
Is that an acoustic electric piano?
Oh a vert fois song
I could listen to your covers on a repeat for years! And yes, you are such a genius! <3
Jamie you're a genius!!!
Oh I know sad songs
I took a pill in Ibiza
To show Avicii I was cool
And when I finally got sober, felt ten years older
But fuck it, it was something to do
I'm living out in LA
I drive a sports car just to prove
I'm a real big baller 'cause I made a million dollars
And I spend it on girls and shoes
But you don't wanna be high like me
Never really knowing why like me
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
Never knowing who to trust like this
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs
I'm just a singer who already blew his shot
I get along with old timers
'Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot
And I can't keep a girl, no
'Cause as soon as the sun comes up
I cut 'em all loose and work's my excuse
But the truth is I can't open up
Now you don't wanna be high like me
Never really knowing why like me
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
Never knowing who to trust like this
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs
I took a plane to my home town
I brought my pride and my guitar

You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing

Une tuerie!!!
This is my favorite cover of his next to dont stop to music. Im glad he released it on spotify so i can listen this instead of the original version.
I took a pill in ibitha.
A good song is a good song, but sometimes the genre it's dressed up in can either make it or break it. Speed it up, slow it down, jazz it up, make it pop, trap it, do an EDM remix on it, make it a standard/classic, R&B it, add some rap/hip-hop to it, put a musical theatre or operatic spin on it, add classical strings, layer on some traditional percussion instruments, however you do it, the dressing sometimes really does make a difference. A songwriter who listens to a broad range of different genres/kinds of music and has a wide knowledge of different instruments (including the traditional/tribal ones used in different cultures around the world & unconventional ones like using a chopping board, or banging on a pot or pan, or something that's more experimental, or sounds more like a sound efx thingy) can be more versatile, and is more able to mix things up in interesting ways to best present a good song and make it great. Just my opinion on things, being a music lover who appreciates different genres & a sometimes musician & wannabe songwriter/producer (but only in my spare time...lol! :-p )
love there in 2:44 and 4:05
Sound and picture is not together...:(
Love it
This is brilliant. Far better than the original!
Increíble. Canción que toca, canción que borda con su estilo. Grande!
Jamie Cullum's covers always inspire me to do my own. Please check it out: https://youtu.be/1pchbm89PH4
Jamiee..You're the most fabulous guy for me..!! Would you want to marry me..!! LOL.. :D :D :D ♥♥♥
This is Jazz? Isn't it?
Doing something out of the moment and see what it becomes?
This is timeless.
This is awesome
crappy songs turned into master pieces, but with this one i liked the original as a dancing or exercise beat but never actually never noticed the lyrics until one.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Hi! Please, is there a chance to get The Song Society album anyhow... ???? It almost hurts, when I can't hear them anytime I want.. 😢

Want this on Spotify!!!!!!! Now!!!
So much better than the original!!
Omg Jamie this is so awesome! I'm a big fan of you, could you please make more song society or an album with the songs?❤️
Where has this guy been my whole life, what a genius!
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.... The Badass man
I'd definitely listen to your straight no chaser monk/Posner mashup hahaha
4:59 that moment when you realized you made that fuckin shit happen
You speak the language of each song so well with your own style in a way that inspires appreciation for both your artistry and that of the author... I don't know what greater compliment can be paid to those authors! Have you thought about applying your skill to diplomacy? ;)
Big Bullshit.
I want to know how to do the chorus riff so bad ugh, trying to figure it out by ear but it just isn't working.
I really don't like the original. I think it sounds exactly like the other crap that's being played on the radio...unfortunately, the pure and wonderful music got lost a long time ago, but I was interested in hearing Jamie's version of it when it popped up...and WOW!! It's amazing and he's so talented!! I love his music and you can tell it's real music made with passion! I do miss that nowadays... :(
And I've just realised this was released exactly one year ago! Today's the 3rd of May 2017...What a remarkable coincidence, haha!😄
The original isn’t actually the one that was played on the radio. That was a remix. Mike Posner’s song is really beautiful as well.
Can somebody tell me How he makes piano sound in this video? It sounds like EP. He used something mute on hammer? Or just mic setting's effects? PLEASE!!
My absolute favourite part about Song Society is that you can clearly see they have a blast doing it :) and we all know Jamie turns everything he touches into pure gold :)
Phenomenal
makes me wanna hear live for rockabye idk why
one word : beautiful!
you popped the mood up dude! sweet touch
Ayy man. Quit hatin on Thelonius Monk haha. Just kiddin, love your music btw
👏👏👏😻
hey jammie i miss you mate glad i see you again
Sou fã demais!!!
Genius!!!
Woowwww... Awesomeee!!!! Nice jazz remake..
the ghosting of notes on the piano gives me goosebumps mate
sounds amazing, especially that upright piano!! Total audio nerd moment: is that the same piano you played on "I Think, I Love" from the pursuit record??
This is art. even this a sad songs you make me feel really happy jamiee
The Bassist is soooooo dreamy
Every cover jamie cullum does is better than the original 😆
Yasss!! This is gold
I've just seen a side of Jamie Cullum I didn't know existed and now I see him in a whole new light......the rascal!
damn Jamie, you make it hard not to love everything you touch.❤❤❤
great cover of a really good song
I was hoping to hear you sing the high notes in with the piano solo from 4.08 onwards Jamie! Awesome cover though thanks for sharing!
I'd love to see you do a cover of heathens (twenty one pilots). the song does a great job at bringing dark/insane aspects together with innocence. but it is just another pop song and lacks the special something. I'm sure you would be capable of getting that right
yamato g. Trash song, trash band, trash movie. That's why he never made it
Phenomenal
I can't stop listening to this! 5 times today!! Amazing,well done Jamie,you changed my life along time ago and for that I forever thank you 👌👍
Can I buy this song on iTunes? I loveeeeeeeee it!!!!
three simple instrument in the right hand with a great taste and feel
What are the chords in this cover...? :C Anyone?
Gm, F, Eb, Bb
Thank you!
Is just so Gooooood!!!!! Please continue to give us so much pleasure with your talent!!!
I like his way to say the truth so much.
thats what 's all about music, alle musicians performing live should do this, thanks a lot for the inspiration !
God I love this!!! 👐👏👏👏👏👏👏
oh darlin'... :) <3
I loved the Monterux show yesterday! Thanks for a great time Jamie ^_^
Jamie you ROCKED MONTREAL ! Thank you XO
beautiful sound.
you are always amazing with your own sexy voice♥
Where is that repeat player?
kyungsoo brought me here~~
awsum *-*
Terrific!
amazing "version"..I like it!
This concept separates the real musicians from the posers and flukes
or the... posners.. I'll see myself out
If you think about doing a song a bit less recognizable, my suggestion is any song by Mayer Hawthorne 😊
OMG i love you so much Jamiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
wish i could watch you live somedayyyyy
Jamie Cullum is life!
Thank you for deliviring real music. With love, fun, passion and mistakes. You're the best! Can't wait to see you live again. I wish I had tickets to the Groove Festival in Cascais. Keep up the amazing work!
