Robin Thicke è tornato sulle scene musicali con Back Together. Il singolo, primo estratto dal nuovo album di prossima uscita, è stato realizzato in collaborazione con Nicki Minaj e prodotto da quel macina hit che è Max Martin.

Due anni fa la sua Blurred Lines (feat. T.I. & Pharrell) aveva conquistato mezzo mondo piazzandosi al primo posto delle classifiche radiofoniche e di iTunes in ben 21 Paesi, compresa l’Italia dove era stata certificata multiplatino. Ora Robin Thicke aggiunge un altro tassello alla propria carriera a partire da Back Together, traccia in cui duetta con Nicki Minaj.

Non è la prima volta che i due si incontrano artisticamente: già nel 2009, infatti, avevano collaborato per Shakin’ It 4 Daddy, brano incluso in Sex Therapy: The Experience, quarto album di Thicke.

Il videoclip di Back Together, in perfetto stile retrò anni ’60, è ambientato in un raffinato pool party all’interno di una villa da sogno tra Martini cocktail e ragazze in bikini.

Back Together segna, dal punto di vista musicale, un ritorno di Robin Thicke alle sonorità funky-dance che lo hanno reso famoso in tutto il mondo.

Testo

Hey Robin

Didn’t I rock with you all night?
Wasn’t it good enough? Don’t lie
Didn’t you tell me that I blew your mind?
Brought out the animal in me
Nobody else can tame that beast
Why did you have to go and say goodbye?

Now all I wanna do is get, get you back (get, get)
‘Cause girl, you’re still the best that I’ve ever had
A one, two, three, let’s go

You used your love to tear me apart
Now put me back together (now put me back together)
You put a bullet into my heart
Now put me back together
Come on, I’m an addict
Come on, gotta have it
Come on, let me at it tonight
You used your love to tear me apart
Now put me back together

I wanna live between your legs
Hear all the freaky things you said
I don’t like what you’re turning me into, into
Baby, you left me on the floor
Now I keep driving past your door
I don’t know why you gotta be so cruel (I don’t know why)

Now all I wanna do is get, get you back
(Wanna get you back, yeah, yeah, baby, get you back)
‘Cause girl you’re still the best that I’ve ever had
A one, two, three, let’s go

You used your love to tear me apart (you used your love)
Now put me back together (now put me back together)
You put a bullet into my heart (straight into my heart)
Now put me back together
Come on, I’m an addict
Come on, gotta have it
Come on, let me at it tonight
You used your love to tear me apart (you used your love)
Now put me back together (together, baby)

Yo, ayo, Robin
I get more head than when they noddin’
Kitty on fleek, it’s popping, I’m Mary Poppins
Just for the record, that hard is what I’m copping
Blasting 2Pac in some fishnet stockings
You know you miss this, right?
M-I-S-S, miss this spot
Used to call me Hillary cause I ride ‘em (Rodham)
I said, “ring, ring, ring, ring, ra-ring, ring
Put a ring on it or ding, da-ding, ding”
Boy your times up, where’d you wind up?
There’s levels to this, you shoulda climbed up
(Let’s go)

You used your love to tear me apart
Now put me back together (now put me back together)
You put a bullet into my heart (right into my heart)
Now put me back together
Come on, I’m an addict
Come on, gotta have it
Come on, let me at it tonight
You used your love to tear me apart (you used your love)
Now put me back together (put me back together)

Come on, I’m an addict
Come on, gotta have
Come on, let me at it tonight
You used your love to tear me apart (you used your love)
Now put me back together (put me back together)
