Royksopp - Were You Ever Wanted Lyrics






Were you ever wanted
Were you ever needed
Were you ever wanted
Were you ever needed

Were you ever wanted
Does your mother love you
Were you ever wanted
Does your father care

Annie, won't you come and meet me
Where the neon lights are shining?

Annie, won't you dance behind me
Don't give up, let music save you!

Annie, have you ever felt the
Need of someone else to see you?

Annie, come here, don't you worry
We are here for you to lean on!

Were you ever wanted
Were you ever needed
Were you ever wanted
Were you ever needed

Were you ever wanted
Does your mother love you
Were you ever wanted
Does your father care

Annie, don't you feel abandoned
We are here to soothe your sorrow

Annie, have I ever told you
Live today, there's no tomorrow!

Annie, did you reconsider
Just because your daddy told you?

Annie, don't you listen to him
Just give in and feel the rhythm!

Were you ever wanted
Were you ever needed
Were you ever wanted
Were you ever needed

Were you ever wanted
Does your mother love you
Were you ever wanted
Does your father care

Royksopp Were You Ever Wanted Comments
  1. J.... W....

    Sadness surrounds us.

  2. Q.... L....

    Honestly it makes me think of Annie Leonhardt.

  3. G.... H....

    This voice is so sexy, make me hard :)

  4. S.... *....

    Royksopp

  5. d.... w....

    no he doesn't care!!   :'(

  6. G.... S....

    Amazing love this track one of there best.

  7. G.... Q....

    This song goes off

  8. K.... S....

    Just when I thought I discovered all Royksopp's melancholic songs, I stumbled on this one and I loved it!

  9. K.... D....

    Annie, are you okay?

  10. K.... A....

    Is un Spotify

  11. S.... O....

    why is this a japan exclusive? this song is beautiful

  12. D.... C....

    I dont care about the song ,don't like it like you and care about you more

  13. A.... M....

    Still listening

  14. m.... ....

    I own everything Röyksopp!!!
    where is this from???

    m.... ....

    Junior (Japan Special Edition) :(

    m.... ....

    thank you for your response. very kind of you! : )
    still couldn t find it though! : (

    m.... ....

    It's a bit difficult to get because the song only released in Japan (as part of the album Junior). So to obtain it legally, you would have to look in places like Discogs: https://www.discogs.com/R%C3%B6yksopp-Junior/release/1693108 .

  15. M.... V....

    Thought it was Jyn Erso on the thumbnail but just realized this video is from 2011

    M.... V....

    Me too, I kept seeing this and thought that shot looked familiar; so now I'm like what do you mean that's not Jyn?

  16. R.... O....

    Muy buena energía da esto.. genial canción!

  17. R.... N....

    TOTALMENTE MAGNÍFICO !!!

  18. K.... U....

    Whaaaat? This is not included in my album JUNIOR! Where is the the track from?

    K.... U....

    Was a special edition part to their album of "Junior". Only released in Japan.

    K.... U....

    okay, thank you! So there is no chance to get this on cd?

    K.... U....

    Very unlikely. You could fine it via other means, but CD? You'd be a very lucky person to manage that.

    K.... U....

    You can buy the Japanese version of Junior both new and second hand via discogs.com. Just checked it myself.

    K.... U....

    only for japanese weirdos. that's very frustrating.

  19. D.... C....

    I can't believe I'm hearing this for the first time after years of owning the album. Grrr. I must download this!

    D.... C....

    you just bought it and then forgot to play it? ahah

  20. S.... ....

    I did a pleasant remix of this years ago :) #shamelessplug

  21. b.... ....

    First time I hear this one, its good.

  22. M.... d....

    i adore röyksopp but this song is the very very best they ever did 😍😍😍

  23. N.... B....

    Miss It So Much is my latest fav but this could overtake it

  24. e.... L....

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  25. J.... N....

    makes me cry too. I was adopted :-/

    J.... N....

    Adopted kids are *chosen*.

  26. E.... J....

    makes me cry and move at the same time. Every Single Time.

    E.... J....

    +Elias Johansson Let's just say this song 'moves' you ^^

    E.... J....

    +Bart van Steenvoort “Bratkip” hahah I meant 'move' like... dancing! :D

    E.... J....

    @Elias Johansson I know, I know. It moves you literally and figuratively.

  27. S.... B....

    wooooooow <3 <3 <3

  28. A.... P....

    OMG! Lykke Li and Röyksopp!! <3 <3 <3

  29. G.... S....

    Get up and go...GO!

  30. D.... P....

    This must be it

  31. l.... ....

    How is it for sure this is lykke li ?!!

    l.... ....

    She collaborated with Röyksopp in the making of Junior. She had an appearance on the track Miss It So Much. This track was part of the batch, but ended up as a bonus track for the Japanese release of the album. You can easily tell it's her voice in comparison to Miss It So Much.

  32. j.... ....

    Why have I only just discovered this song now?

    j.... ....

    It was only released in Japan.

    j.... ....

    I discovered it today, 10/10-18, after being a Røyksoppfan for almost 20 years. :)

    j.... ....

    20 years??

    Yeeeeeeeeeeee haaaaaaaaawwwwwwww!!

  33. d.... ....

    VINYL (or CD) WHERE ?????? 

  34. P.... ....

    I managed to get a japanese copy of the album on eil.com

  35. G.... m....

    Gaga works entirely different than Lykke does, Lykke is expressionist while Gaga is conceptual. I thought it was quite obvious with Born This Way she works in a manner like Lou Reed (who also made horrible albums on purpose)

  36. P.... ....

    why is everyone talking about gaga

  37. A.... P....

    Totally unrelated comment. Gaga is a good artist in her own genre.

  38. A.... M....

    WTF has Lady Gaga to this video? Why don't go to Gaga's page talk sh*t about her or exalt Madonna and other pop singers ¬¬'

  39. P.... ....

    It only anoys me that the best track on the album is only on the japanese version. It was super hard to track down.

  40. R.... B....

    Royksopp and Grimes would be LEGEND

  41. J.... B....

    lol, just lol

  42. J.... B....

    lol...just lol

  43. H.... ....

    Lykkie Li sounds fabulous with Röyksopp! and so does Fever Ray and Robyn.

  44. B.... M....

    Were you ever wanted?

  45. J.... B....

    love this song, amazing face b

  46. F.... ....

    LOL invalid comparison.

  47. C.... .....

    My sister compares Lykke Li to Adele....they have nothing in commin -.-

  48. L.... ....

    I think it's because she kinda looks like her in the face but in my opinion a much prettier version......for me her music is like the new Mazzy Star :)

  49. T.... L....

    "lykke li" is, if the two words are put together, pronounced almost exactly the same way as "happy" in norwegian. I always thought that had something to do with it.

  50. T.... L....

    For some reason, this track makes me wonder if I was ever wanted... that's weird.

  51. M.... ....

    i don't get why people keep comparing Lady Gaga and Lykke Li.... Its not even the same genre of music. Plus Lykke Li doesn't try as hard as LG. I hate when people try to compare the two.

  52. S.... S....

    special one!

  53. f.... ....

    It's a bonus track on the Japanese release.

  54. J.... D....

    @rsena0210 royksopp junior album

  55. J.... D....

    are you fucking serious i have this album and this song aint on it god im always missing something

  56. C.... V....

    @MonsieurDecent it's her first name not the surname she's called " li lykke somethingElse"

  57. Z.... ....

    Rewelacja!!!!!!!!!!

  58. M.... ....

    meloves

  59. B.... O....

    @anastazjapamp Go to ANY recent female artist's video on here and you'll find people making the same comparison. It gets old...but at least there's a massive amount of people out there who despise her ^_^

  60. a.... ....

    stop talking about lady gaga in all Lykke Li videos! nobody is interested anymore in that comparison

  61. m.... b....

    One day I will walk into a club and hear these guys and I will reach euphoria without the aid of alcohol. That's real music.

  62. J.... t....

    @SuperHeatherAwesome Second verse:

    Annie don't you feel abandoned, we are here to soothe your sorrow
    Annie have I ever told you, live today there's no tomorrow
    Annie did you reconsider just because your daddy told you,
    Annie don't you listen to him, just give in and feel the rhythm

    Doesn't sound very negative to me. Many songs are about heartbreak or doubts and fears, it's just a mood of a moment. I don't think this song is ment negatively.

    Lykke can sound very bittersweet, awesome vocals!

  63. C.... T....

    Please! Lady Gaga could only hope to be as "less labored" and as fresh as Lykke Li. Gaga smacks of TOO MUCH EFFORT AND NO SUBSTANCE!
    Also, as a facsimile of Madonna I think the Gaga is a poor representation.
    Try harder Gaga!

  64. O.... ....

    lady lykki ............ lykki gaga

  65. F.... ....

    Lykke Li and Royksopp should have a megachild who will be the future of music.

  66. M.... D....

    @SuperHeatherAwesome
    "Ok" mum

  67. M.... D....

    @SuperHeatherAwesome
    I'm not "insinuating" anything: Nowhere do I say that you are not entitled to having an oppinion nor do I say that I don't respect it. I just think you dislike the song for a bullshit reason, that is all.

  68. M.... D....

    @SuperHeatherAwesome
    Negative to the soul? In what way? I say that is nothing but a personal oppinion. I guess you never heard of death metal, dark ambient and other gloomy music genres? Music takes on many forms, like I said - and people are both different from each other and in different moods from day to day - which is the reason why this kind of music exist. I like this song lyrics very much because they are different and take on a different shape than what people are used to.

  69. M.... D....

    @SuperHeatherAwesome
    Yes they are, and they are awesome. Not every song can - and should - be happy. Music need to reflect all emotions and all states - not just the good and happy ones.
