Anne-Marie: Boy

Anne-Marie’s debut EP, aptly named Karate (she is a three-time world champion), fuses electronic soul and atmospheric synths with R&B/pop leanings. Title track ‘Karate’ explores themes of desire over sensual vocals and ethereal beats and is a taste of what’s to come from the rising talent. Anne-Marie has worked with an array of up-and-coming producers over the four tracks: Josh Record, Two Inch Punch, Brad Ellis and more.

You might already recognise the Essex-born star-in-waiting – Anne-Marie became a staple member in Hackney collective Rudimental’s live band over the past couple of years, performing in front of thousands at the likes of Glastonbury, Isle of Wight, Ibiza Rocks and touring world-wide.

With a whistling-type melody playing under her playful lyrics, ‘Boy’ is an incredibly catchy offering from the Essex-born singer.

Anne-Marie: Boy Lyrics:
Oh geez, you tease, you’re pretty much everything that I need
Good flirt, nice shirt, I can feel I’m gonna fall head first
Golden skin, cute grin, saying all the right things
And then you hit me from my number, babe
But then you go and call me mate, what?

All the things I like, but I guess I have to say goodbye
Until I figure it all

Are you into me boy? Or are you into someone else hey baby
That boy, cause you know I never can tell, ooh boy
I really wanna be your girl so I gotta know
Cause you’re hanging around with him there

Oooah oooah, what you want boy?
Oooah oooah

See you looking at me, it’s kinda like you’re checkin’ my clothes Don’t care what’s underneath
Just wanna know where I got them from, hmm
Mistook that look, I should’ve known it was all too good
To be true, me and you, I were a fool

Are you into me boy? Or are you into someone else hey baby
That boy, cause you know I never can tell, ooh boy
I really wanna be your girl, so I gotta know
Cause you’re hanging around with him there

Oooah oooah, what you want boy?
Oooah oooah, did I get you wrong?
Oooah oooah, what you want boy?
Oooah oooah

I was blinded took me so long to see
You ain’t interested in knowing like me
All this time thinking how good this would be
I just couldn’t believe that you were

You weren’t into me boy, you were into someone else
Oh and is that boy, but you know I never can tell

Oooh boy, trying to be your girl
And now I know, know, know, know, know
While you’re hanging around with him there

Oooah oooah, what you want boy?
Oooah oooah, did I get you wrong?
Oooah oooah, what you want boy?
Oooah oooah, and that’s it
