  • Hey, How about writing your own music you talentless twat? Instead of ripping off Akira the Don.

  • @Thromalis I've heard the song you're talking about and they don't sound anything alike.

  • Listening to this during Christmas... o_0

  • AKIRA THE DON RIP OFF! AKIRA THE DON  AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON AKIRA THE DON

  • I'm sure his favourite album is actually either alright'still or it wasnt me it was you

  • My favourite song of the album :)

  • I thought this song was bout osama o.o

  • "His favorite band is Creedence Clearwater Revival" Lmao. Oh, I'm sure.

  • I want one more cd from her. Her songs are so good!

  • guys this song isnt supposed to really be about if there is a god or not or what he thinks.. its about how fucked up everythig is today.

  • God doesn't like caucasians more just because of He is English or whatsoever, He loves us all equally. It is not only English people are His people.

  • ya'll should stop arguing. just enjoy the song and the meaning it brings to us all.

  • Comment removed

  • it has been going on for too long.....

  • nobody has penned such astute and witty lyrics since morrissey and stipe in the 80s.

  • CCR!!!!!!

  • The more I think about it, and through research, the more I'm starting to believe that God really does favor Caucasians. They had it pretty good since the beginning.

    I'm Atheist.

  • @anythingnew how, when his initial chosen people were the ARABIC Israelites? And it's not that God favors Caucasians, it's that the Europeans groups were infulenced by early Christianity and Judaism and decided to further develop the church and spread it, and through that it became corrupted here and there. Maybe what you've read says differently though.

  • @ninjarock765

    Sorry, should have been clearer. Favor in terms of brains and emotional intelligence.

  • @anythingnew

    I personally take offense to that. I not only am a fourteen year old female, but I am multi-racial. And a Roman Catholic (with liberal leanings) And no, not from my parents. My guardians are devout, and I can't seem to agree with them. I believe in God AND Jesus.

  • @ninjarock765

    What are you talking about?

  • @anythingnew Well, what did you mean by brains and emotional intelligence? Are you saying that caucasians are smarter? Because that's in no way proven. I'm saying that you should watch your mouth, and actually study theology before making a racial remark about who a God (that you don't believe in) favors in terms of ANYTHING. And excuse me, I suppose I should've been clearer. But let my point be understood, huh?

  • @ninjarock765

    Not smarter, but there are many kinds of intelligence. Emotional intelligence is one kind.

    Oh, I have a change of viewpoint now. White people are one of the top contributors to the world, and it has nothing to do with God, because God is non-existent. Intelligent beings, however, are real, and I am starting to accept a theory that claims that they came to earth and brainwashed us with their teachings.

    May I ask, do you adore the Pope?

  • @anythingnew Not at all. He hides the scandls of my church and pretends like everything is alright. I'm more of a liberal than anything. Emotional intelligence? Please, enlighten me. And I'm assuming that the only reasons that Caucasians contribute more to the world is because they are free of the oppressive barriers that people of other races have. And I'm not talking black or spanish vs. White, I'm talking middle eastern and Asian as well.

  • @ninjarock765

    Oh, that is good.

    What is so great about liberalism?

    Emotional intelligence is societal based. You are aware of the people around, their emotions, and yours. Basically, people skills.

    True, they are free from oppression, but how did they come to be free from oppression? Why aren't they oppressed?

  • @anythingnew

    Liberalism is tolerance. It's why I can sit here and have a virtual conversation with you and not be angry. It's accepting people for what they are. I don't suppose I'm politically one, but I have many liberal values.

    Why aren't whites oppressed? Natural arrogance?Maybe because starting out, they felt superior, as all nations did before they saw another of a different kind. It's all in the mind.

  • @ninjarock765

    Do you tolerate everything?  Even "youth" flash mobs? Do you even know what that is? Check it out. I hope you like your Liberalism. Lets all embrace it.

    Yes, yes, arrogance, and that drove them to greatness. You are Hispanic? Maybe, it's the temperature and climate that says success?

    Good, good, yes, it is all in the mind.

  • @anythingnew

    Saying a liberal tolerates everything is stereotyping. No, I don't tolerate EVERYTHING. Going around and indecently exposing yourself, killing unborn children. this isn't what I believe in. However, hating someone just because they have a different color skin than you, because they like their own sex, or anything that involves equality among all peoples I am for. I may not agree with them, but they are human as well and deserve such equal treatment. Whether I'm agreed with or not.

  • @ninjarock765

    I think abortion is needed greatly. That's the good thing about Liberalism.

    There is no hate, only awareness, and I am fully aware of what these people can do for, or should I say, "to" society, and they sure do a lot.

    You can't mask, run, or hide from it forever.

  • @anythingnew

    Why abort a child when there are plenty of alternatives? And what do they 'do'?

    Who's trying to 'mask' or 'run' or 'hide' from anything? I know that society has deteriorated greatly, and from another point of view that I'm willing to look at, I can understand that the whole reason we are in such a horrible position is because of lack of organization and agreements among national leaders. You are tying to make a point, and I'm obviously missing it, right?

  • @ninjarock765 Overpopulation is serious. I see more pros in abortion than cons. I used to believe in the preservation of life, but no more.

    Well, they wreck neighborhoods, they're lazy, and they suck off our tax dollars through welfare. Ever been to the bad parts of Philly, NYC, LA, Detroit? No matter how much the government and community tries to help, they're always stuck. In Africa, truck loads of food would come to feed the villages. It has gone from "Thank you" to "wen dat f00d cumin?"

  • @anythingnew

    I don't see America being close to overpopulation. I think life should be preserved. Overpopulation? Kill the elders, kill the cripples, kill every nuisance to the communities. The babies' hearts are beating, but so what? Kill them too, save us the trouble. I don't believe in this. And I can understand the welfare systems stopping the unemployment. Ever heard of Invisible children? Perhaps not. And I think government interference should stop when it comes to those issues in Africa.

  • @anythingnew That's going against human life in general. How would you feel if you were killed because the world is "overpopulated" its not fair. At all, why should one person be special compared to the others? EVERY SINGLE PERSON in this ENTIRE world is equal. But, some people can't seem to realize this. Which to me is very sad, because if everyone knew and understood this. Then there would be less fighting I believe.

  • @TheCaramelpocky Are you talking about Communism? Because even that is corrupt in some ways. And America is not about Communism, along with other countries. And we are not all equal... We'd like to believe it, but it's not true. We have gotten closer to equality (Women and other non white races can now Vote, along with men) but that doesn't mean we've got it. Religions, races, Life Choices, Gender, Homosexuality, Money, and etc. etc. are factors that play in equality.

  • @ninjarock765 Unborn children? You mean a fetus?

  • @russianfantastico

    To put it in technical terms, yes.

    You were one once. Think about if you weren't given a chance to live...then again, you wouldn't care, would you? So why put it so insensitively?

  • lol,what do the powerpuff girls have to do with lily allen?

  • i think the song is talking about how we all get so upset and argue over the tiniest things

  • This is beautiful

  • great words i love it

  • The more I listen to her songs, the more I fall in love with her. What a wonderful singer! <3

  • ok well i RE heard this song and i dont frikin get it!

  • i love God :)

    GOD is amazing, and i thank him for creating lily cuz her songs are cool

  • best song eva mate !

  • this a completely random idea. but is the title of the song Him a play on the word Hymn?

  • @Pukerua2 That's a really good point, and u might be right. Obviously Him refers to God but it might also mean hymn too. Either way I'm gonna think of that now every time I hear this song :)

  • Lol wow i had no idea my random comment would be top rated that's silly. Haha

  • she ripped the melody from akirathedon hopefully he sues the fuck out her ass because the melody sound EXACTY ALIKE you should listen to him listen to her sing a song with his melody here it is so fuck you fuck you very very much because your gonna get sued Is Lily Allen's Him A Rip-Off Of Akira The Don's Oh! (What A Glorious Thing)?

  • @jkidbuu92 go away, if you think lily needs to steal anything from anyone you obvisouly have no idea what kind of artist lily is. I heard thast song you speak of, its shit, complete and utter gross shit. Lily would probbly make him famous because i have never heard of this guy. And his lyrics are really basic, dumbed down. Lily wriites something to think about where akira talks about.....waking up, brushing teeth, take a shit....who fucking cares about that. NOT ME!

  • @raydioadyct yup

  • Im Wiccan so i believe in A god and goddess. but not God...well sorta...but this song is great :)

  • @bellacullen4444 I'm wiccan as well and I do believe in multiple Gods/Goddesses. I also believe that no matter what religion someone is that in the end we are all worshiping the same god/goddess just in different ways. I love this some and it has very deep good points in life.

  • I really love the lyrics of this song! ♥

  • this is what i think everyday. does god like caucasians more.

  • @anitabelikov ..i think he likes every ppl equally :)

  • @AndrijanaGost me too but people aren't treated equally in the real world which is really sad.

  • @anitabelikov Shut up. 

  • @anitabelikov i lol'd.

  • These are the best lyrics I've ever read / heard!

    It doesn't matter if you believe in some kind of god or not - everyone can identify with these words!

    Simply gorgeous!

  • lyrics, instrumental, Lily - everything is FANTASTIC

  • Is this about God ?

  • @AshleyyBlabla Yeah she mentions God in the beginning

  • Oh (what a glorious thing).

  • No, I will not check out Akira the whats he face song because it sounds shit, and I'm not as sad as you people, who argue about this song ¬¬ lets just leave it as WHOVERS SONG THIS IS its awesome. K? x

  • ...Holy Kopyright Theft Batfolks, what IS Lilly Allen playing at NOW???? How the hell did they think they'd get away with THIS??? We do have EARS, y'knows. But if you don't believe it, check it out for yourselves, Akira The Don - Oh! (What A Glorious Thing)

  • @ZenPyramid ur a stupid ass akira the don stole that song from NICO- THESE DAYS

    so before saying anything get your facts straight!

  • Soung Ripped from AKIRA THE DON's Oh what a glorious thing.

  • @firesanobi11 @firesanobi11 ur a stupid ass akira the don stole that song from NICO- THESE DAYS

    so before saying anything get your facts straight!

  • Oh Lily, you seem to have stolen a little something from this track... Go check out Akira the Don's "Oh, What a Glorious Thing."

  • @threeyears umm if you have the album it states that she used this song as the background

    so she didnt steal it duhh she gave credit

  • @canityounitt No, she credits the sample from These Days, not the fact that she ripped off the bass track and drum line from Oh what a Glorious Thing. She never gave Akira credit.

  • Is this about bush?

  • @Flowreach Haha Lily Allen is British...

  • @bb12321234x It is about bush.

    I'm also britsh, I could write a song about him.

  • Everyone...I need you to stop what you're doing and listen to me....

    Tacos. :)

  • You have my attention, all yours...for £2.70. You buy you buy!

  • And nachos.. mmmh

  • @nottheonlysinner Tacos Rule!

  • @nottheonlysinner all hail tacos and taquitos.

  • this is a great song. I wonder about god like this a lot.

  • This is so beautyful !!!

  • XXmcconnellroxursoxX, i agree with you. I think you both have good points however.

  • "Long before that September

    Long before hijacking planes" = 9/11

  • my favorite lines "Long before that September

    Long before hijacking planes"

  • A truly unique and beautiful song. Very deep, I LOVE it. Btw to all of you people who connects this song to president bush it has nothing to do with him. It's about god. On one of her love videos of her singing this she even says "this is a song about god"

  • It's about God

    It's about Bush

    It's about Obama

    It's about the British National Party

    What on earth has it to do with any of them?

    It's about my point of view when I listen to her point of view, and it's all about your point of view when you listen to mine.

    It's the story you tell and nothing more than that. It is as YOU say it is. THAT is all you'll ever have, the only difference is, you think you understand what someone is thinking, however, it's still the story YOU make up. Simple!

  • oneeyethenoo. see what ur saying, you dont know someones point of view, u just know ur view of there point of view, or how u interperate their point of view. thats pretty deep, and yet so true.

  • It's deep cos I certainly ain't 'shallow'. Amazing how you picked up on it though pal. Must be some good depth in you too.

    The world talks about God as if they know what they are talking about.

    Has one single person that talks so much about God actually been, seen and known God they talk so much about without regurgitating some other persons view that he/she agrees with?

    Those who know, do not say. Those who say, do not know.

    God to me is Unknowable. Now that is nice and I don't get sucked in.

  • tbh i dont believe in god, i think its a better place where people are good cos they choose to be instead of becos they dont want to be punished.

  • Exactly! Except one little bit. When you said "u just know ur view of their point of view" It's really yor view of 'yor' point of view. It's still every bit yor point of view. The point of view that you have, can only come from you in the first and only place. A projection of yor own thinking is all you can have, it's the only view there is for you.

    You might just 'get it', who am I to say, it's a very deep tapping inward though. Thanks!

  • I actually do 'get it' -_- Don't mistake me as a fool. But I'm saying... I do like the way you think, but for some reason I feel like u have this sense of immunity as if your above thinking like others... When in the end we're all human. we're all the same.

  • Princess! The sense of immunity you feel is nothing to do with me. It's everything to do with how immune You think yorself to be. How can you possibly know this unless it was you in the first place? Who really is the one that thinks that they think above all others? I'm just showing you how super smart you are. You've TOLD me at least 8 different times.... don't do this, don't do that, I should do this, I must stop doing this........ It's all the exact things that are yor traits.

  • OMG! LOL ...don't call me princess. What ur saying does have some truth to it. But just because it does, doesn't mean it's true 100% of the time. U shouldn't live ur life off of one philosophy, that leaves no room for living. I actually don't think I'm above anyone. Just because I make a statement doesn't mean I think that way..it legit doesn't.you keep saying the same thing back to me...like ur right. I sense a lil bit of a hypocrite .

  • im with you here mcconnell, youve been saying that you THINK hes arrogant, and hes saying ud have to be a mind reader to have an opinion of him

  • THANK U!!!! EFFIN THANKU! hahah I'm so glad someone knows what I mean.

  • lol its ok. hes twistin ur words to make it seem like your in the wrong.

  • I know! haha thankew :)

  • it's about god - those arab terrorist also kill and die in "his good name". this is sad ;<

  • I'm a Christian. (Just a label) I do know though that I ain't the label. I love ALL Arabs. I know that they ain't labels too. Anyone who attacks..... ...whether Christian / Muslim / Hindu / or Tree-hugger, must be confused somehow. Kinda insane in the head somewhere (sickness in the mind type of person) I just dont expect them to realise as quick as I did. How can anyone be yor problem, when all along, its you that has the problem with the other one. We all know how to fix an Arab. Fix us first.
  • i see what youre saying but i dont think people are sick in the head for attacking, like you said u realised it faster, but what about when u hadnt realised it ? wer u sick in the head then ?

  • I thought I was 'normal'. Then I found how totally insane my thinking was. So 'YES'! I was sick in the head and openly admit that to anyone.

    If someone is attacking the other, they are really only attacking themselves. Now that is a sickness.

    I can watch it all now and understand what is really going on. How? Cos I did the very same things as them. Essentially, we are all truly wonderful people inside, every single one of us has a vast capacity to love and we are always free. Who bounds you?

  • great lyrics

  • this means hes not human hes god. this is type churchy. i luv ihtt

  • this is about god, because there is the part: ever since he can remeber people have died in his good name, long before that september, long before hijacking planes. that is definetly 'bout God. I think this is a vary good song about god :)

  • LMFAO How the hell is this about Bush? xD Some people are idiots..

  • I think Fuck You is about Bush though. Maybe they're getting confused?

  • lol this is really ironic everyone seems to be arguing about what the songs about...think about it....all the comments saying"im right youre wrong etc" are just proving lilys point in this song god wouldn't want everyone to fight about\because of him would he???

  • the song fuck you is about the british national party but it can be applied to anyone. this song is about god.

  • The song is about God

  • This isn't about one single person...Atleast I don't observe it that way... I think its about EVERYONE voicing their opinions too much, and not accepting that everyone is different....And I think she is pointing out that it leads to things like terrorism, just because we can't agree with each other...I don't see in any way how this can be related to bush, and i'm also an american..

  • sorry dear, it's about god ;P

    "And if there

    is some kind of god

    do you think he's pleased

    When he looks down on us

    I wonder what he sees"

    even if you don't believe in god, you have to admit it's continuing through the entire song to talk about this specific entity :D

    just saying

  • wow...I hate how people dislike my comment for interpreting a song... u shud just see songs the way u see them, stop over-analyzing thats absolutely not what music is about.

  • So you stop the hating, and you stop the analyzing. Then you'll find that you were the problem here all along.

    Music is for what anyone wants to make it for themselves. Everyone is right in their world, how lovely. It only turns sour when we think another person is wrong cos it conflicts with our own story we made up about what we believe to be right.

    If someone is wrong.....yor right,

    If someone is right........yor right.

    Just don't expect everyone on the planet to agree with you though pal.

  • I never expected everyone on the planet to agree with me.Everyone deserves their own opinion I just statedthat I don't like how people over analyze music I don't think thats what music should be about. In other words,Interpret it your own way,but if you share your interpretation,there will be others who disagree with it.don't act as though you know everything.You think your so different from everyone else.but your pushing your opinion as though its fact.Don't act as if your above people"like me"

  • I am whatever you say I am, and now you seem to have some kind of authority to tell me "Don't do this and Don't do that". Are YOU acting above me here? You said "You think you are so different from everyone else" So now you have become a mind reader and know what I am thinking do ya? I really don't think so. Yor thoughts are yors and mine are mine, but it was interesting to hear the story you made up about me. In interest, if you read that last letter back to yorself, you just showed me you.

  • You're doing the exact same thing ur accusing me of,you just refuse to see it.I want to thank you for all the life lessons you have given me.cuz you really seem to know what you are talking about.What gives you the right to act as if you are the all knowing.don't act like you can tell people whats wrong with society.how would you know?all over the comments u'vebeen writing whats wrong with society as if you are right, and its rather annoying because you act as if your above it,when ur doing it.

  • Show me where I did it. I never said I had the right.....you said that...so show me again. I can't find one place where I wrote that there was something wrong with society......show me. You are the one who made the story up that I was right, I never mentioned it once. And if it's annoying you, well, how can someone else be YOUR problem, when the problem is inside you. Do you know what yor talking about or are you acting as if you do? I'd love to know.

  • excuse me you implied it (that's my bad and i apologize ). For example "The world talks about God as if they know what they are talking about. " um.. Don't make assumptions about EVERYONE in the world, and How would you know that? I can't trust you as a reliable resource to tell me about the world. There is just something about the way you are writing that makes you seem arrogant. I'm not saying you are.

  • So they do know what they are talking about then do they? I've heard so much God talk, and again, I never said EVERYONE, you said that. Keep yor statements as yors, cos yor statements really have nothing to do with what I actually said, anyone can read what I said. You don't trust another purely because you fail to trust yorself. What has you trusting me got to do with me? How would you know what arrogance was if it wasn't a part of you in the first place? You wouldn't. I am what you say I am.

  • I Know that In order to view someones traits you have to have had or have the same trait. Like arrogance, yes I think you are arrogant, and yes I do agree that is because I can be arrogant too. You act like you know me, and you too are doing the EXACT SAME THING ur telling me I'm doing. My impression of you makes you seem arragont and what not...but I don't know you and I'm not saying I know everything about you.

  • Projection makes perception. Everything you project as me came from you. I just love to get my little tennis racquet out and bat yor projectiles back to you cos it allows you to see it was you in the first place, and I respect myself enough to realise I would be insane to think yor stuff was mine. Who's been telling you all yor life...don't do this, don't do that? You've become their same thinking. You just picked one guy sweetheart that says "go and get stuffed" to those people. Respect 2U x

  • Also don't act as if I have never learned that lesson... I have lived..I know that "if it's annoying you, well, how can someone else be YOUR problem, when the problem is inside you." But you have to understand. Just because you understand it, doesn't make you immune from it. we're only human.

  • And now yor thinking that I am thinking that you have never learned a lesson. Another brilliant story about about me is it? You were the one that thought it up, you actually know how people are acting? If I was to think you were acting a certain way, I'd see myself as loopy. I'd only be making something up in ma head like you show me what you do. You are good at it, in fact, pretty smart at it, however, it doesn't quite 'cut it' with me, especially when you have no idea what I am immune to.

  • @XXmcconnellroxursoxX the lyrics can be connected to that, and what u say is true but the sogng itself is about god. howver ur view si incredibly important and the people who continually tell him hes wrong shud go die in a hole.

  • this song reminds me of bush

    but that's probably cuz i live in the u.s.

    haha.

    but the sept hijacking planes reminds me a lot of him yeah (x

  • hahahahaha wtf? bush? lolololol I sure hope bush isn't god...omg fml if he is....lol

  • um i saw her live fuck you isn't about bush it's about the british national party it cann be applied to bush but it's not actually about him and this song is about god

  • lovely lily, lovely voice,  lovely song !!

  • Referring back to my comment earlier, i wasn't saying "fuck you" to everyone.. i was talking about the song title "Fuck You" lmao! This blatantly isn't about Bush

  • You're right, fuck you is about bush not this song

  • no fuck you is about the british national party wel it was originally but lily said that it could be applied to anyone, including bush

    why itunes says it's about bush nobody knows (x

  • I've never thought of it that way before. I love this song! God, it's so great. Do you think a hardcore religious person would just dismiss that as silly talk.

  • its bout bush the wost president ever

  • It's NOT about Bush. It's about GOD.

    Only a complete moron woul think this is about Bush. FFS

  • i'm not a moron

    maybe people just don't know

  • "And if there

    yeah totally about bush..... -__-

  • crazycakes is right just cause you love bush doesnt mean that this song is about him just go listen to fuck you your not going to think she'd be willing to write a good song about him after that XP

  • fuck you is about bush...and she is dead right in that song about him! is that who she is on about in this song aswell

  • Wonder if he likes playing Nintendo? 8D

  • Creedence Clearwater Revival! Imagine God rocking out to that one!! (With a big fuck off beard and a big cigar!) Awesome!

  • I HAve That Poster On My Wall
