Thought I'd do this myself as well. I might. Do it multiple times and ignore all the unfinished song analyses in the drafts as always you know what's up because this is SO FUN! Basically, this is spin the wheel but with songs, and I'm just gonna ramble about whatever song I get...

OKAY STOLE MY HEART OKAY.

Lemme just put it on

hehehehehe

This song was just like.. hey.. hey remember that one performance?

Also.. can you watch that video without cringing because I can't iiiiiieeeeee I just watched it and I crumbled up into a little squeakly ball iiieee look at them oohhh pls why why just. WHY.

They're so cute at the end tho look at theeemmm

Producers be like "Oh you know what? That Rihanna song that's just a massive hit that these guys performed, that worked, yep, yep yepyepyep let's just make something like that for the album yep that'll work let's go." - aka the birth of Stole My Heart. Because it's basically the same song.

But really though, these songs are so damn similar even if you think the similarities with Only Girl (In The World) specifically aren't so much on purpose, it's still very clear early 1D's purpose was to get those poppy hits in the likes of stuff that was in the charts at the time such as Rihanna, Kelly Clarkson, and Katy Perry to name a few.

Between Stole My Heart and Everything About You I don't know which one is the strongest "Rihanna amirite" contender, with Everything About You more closely resembling S&M (harry still being a fan 11 years later yeee) and Don't Stop The Music.

Back to the song in question, I think the change in the lyrics of Only Girl (In The World) during their X-Factor performance demonstrate exactly what Stole My Heart set out to do (and most songs on the album for that matter... and well, actually, One Direction as a whole really): making the teenage girl fan feel like they're that one special girl these guys could have their eyes on. The way Liam sings "I want you to love my like I'm the hot guy" followed by them together singing the chorus with the altered point of view lyrics: "I'm gonna make you feel like you're the only girl in the world, like you're the only one that I'll ever love, like I'm the only one that knows your heart, only girl in the world"

So then take that to Stole My Heart, and you see the same thing. It's just 5 heartthrobs telling target demographicgirl she's special and they want her.

But the funny thing is we can just place it next to the Rihanna song they totally didn't rip off and it continues to just kinda... match up:

Stole My Heart // Only Girl (In The World)

[Verse 1: Liam]

The light shines, it's getting hot on my shoulders // I want you to love me Like I'm a hot ride

It's getting hot on his shoulders, is he the hot ride? salkdjalks

I don't mind, this time it doesn't matter // Be thinking of me, doing what you like

'Cause your friends, they look good but you look better // So, boy, forget about the world

Don't you know all night // 'Cause it's gon' be me and you tonight

I've been waiting for a girl like you to come around, 'round, 'round // I wanna make you beg for it Then imma make you swallow your pride

Also let's take a second to laugh at this over at Genius:

[Chorus: Harry]

Under the lights tonight, you turned around and you stole my heart, with just one look // Want you to make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world

When I saw your face, I fell in love // Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love

Took a minute girl, to steal my heart tonight // Like I'm the only one who knows your heart, only girl in the world

With just one look, yeah // Like I'm the only one that's in command

Been waiting for a girl like you // 'Cause I'm the only one who understands How to make you feel like a man, yeah

...looking at this and it's not even worth it to really actually go into it.. I mean. It's just a simple pop song vs another simple pop song and it did what it set out to do and that's.. it. What else is there to say except Harry has the chorus, Liam the verses, Zayn the bridge, wheRE THE FUCK ARE NIALL AND LOUIS??

WHERE THE F-

Louis' voice would've made so much more sense on this right? why did they? make harry? hit the high notes? by himself? when? louis? is? right???? there?????

Okay I'm just gonna tag @swimmingleo and @laurelier and whoever else wants to to join @thestylinsons @ialwaysknewyouwerepunk (is this tagging secretly an attempt to get you to do another one maybe maybe not) and myself in this lil game. Rules I guess:

Pick the one of the options:

only UAN + TMH wheel

All 1D songs wheel

All of 1D + Harry + Louis wheel

And write something about the song it gives you! A full lyric breakdown, just your opinion or really anything, whatever that song sparks you to write!

#stole my heart #smart things with lyrics #bro i did a lyric analysis on stole my heart im crackling i love this
