Who Made You King of Anything?


Artist: Sara Bareilles

Album: King of Anything-Single

Tracks:1

Released: 2010

Sara Bareilles hit the radio waves with "Love Song" back in 2007, and her newer hit single "King of Anything" is still blessing our radio channels with its jazzy goodness. The track opens with a light piano and vocal combination, transitioning into strong chords and fleeting drum attachments. The lyrics paint the picture of a relationship that's way too inclined in one direction: to a controlling, imposing significant other. He tries to steer everything his way, but Bareilles puts her foot down and decides that she can think for herself, thank you very much. 1 cup of fun lyrics, 1/2 cup of clapping to the beat, 1/4 cup trumpet accompaniment, 3 cups of jazzy piano notes, and one crown. Stir and serve with a side of singing along. There you have it: a "King of Anything".
