Stuck with U

Sign in to edit

"Stuck with U" is a song by Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber. It was released as a charity single on May 8, 2020.

Background[]

Skyler Stonestreet got to be a part of a Zoom writing session with Whitney Phillips, Freddy Wexler and Gian Stone and wrote the initial version of “Stuck With U” on April 3.[1] Freddy was really instrumental in getting this song placed as well and was a champion from day one of writing it. It was inspired by an argument Wexler had that morning with his wife. He said, “You know, if I have to be stuck with someone, I’m glad I’m stuck with you.”

Scooter Braun and Stonestreet had been talking about a song that reflected this time, Skyler thought, this is it. Scooter wanted to bring people together with a song about what’s going on in the world. A positive message to make people feel uplifted, not to mention donating to charity to really make it even bigger than the song itself and so meaningful during such a crazy moment in time. Wexler sent the demo to Scooter Braun. “Within the week, Ariana was sending us edits.” It was Ariana's idea to put a male singer on the record and she sent it over to Justin.[2][3][1][4]

On April 30, 2020, Bieber tweeted "Special announcement tomorrow at 10 am pst ...". Sometime later, Grande chimed in the tweet saying "see u there everybody 🖤" the next day, the artists took to their social media to announce the release of their song on May 8, 2020. You may find it on Ariana Grande's YouTube channel. It first premiered at 21:00 PST on May 7, 2020. All net proceeds from the track will be donated to the "First Responders Children's Foundation". The money will fund scholarships of children of frontline workers whose lives have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Lyrics[]

[Intro: Ariana Grande]
Mmm
Hey, yeah
(That’s just for fun)
(What?)
Ah

[Verse 1: Ariana Grande]
I’m not one to stick around
One strike and you’re out, baby
Don’t care if I sound crazy
But you never let me down, no, no
That’s why when the sun’s up, I’m stayin’
Still layin’ in your bed, sayin’

[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Got all this time on my hands
Might as well cancel our plans, yeah
I could stay here for a lifetime

[Chorus: Ariana Grande]
So, lock the door and throw out the key
Can’t fight this no more, it’s just you and me
And there’s nothin’ I, nothin’ I, I can do
I’m stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with you
So, go ahead and drive me insane
Baby, run your mouth, I still wouldn’t change
Being stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with you
I’m stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with you, baby

[Verse 2: Justin Bieber with Ariana Grande]
There’s nowhere we need to be, no, no, no
I’ma get to know you better
Kinda hope we’re here forever
There’s nobody on these streets
If you told me that the world’s endin’
Ain’t no other way that I can spend it

[Pre-Chorus: Justin Bieber, with Ariana Grande & Both]
Oh, oh, oh, oh (Ooh)
Got all this time in my hands
Might as well cancel our plans (Yeah, yeah)
I could stay here forever

[Chorus: Justin Bieber with Ariana Grande]
So, lock the door and throw out the key
Can’t fight this no more, it’s just you and me
And there’s nothin’ I, nothin’ I, I can do
I’m stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with you
So, go ahead and drive me insane
Baby, run your mouth, I still wouldn’t change
Being stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with you
I’m stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with you

[Bridge: Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande & Both]
Woah
Baby, come take all my time
Go on, make me lose my mind
We got all that we need here tonight

[Chorus: Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber & Both]
I lock the door (Lock the door) and throw out the key
Can’t fight this no more (Can’t fight this no more), it’s just you and me
And there’s nothin’ I, nothin’ I’d rather do
I’m stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with you
So, go ahead and drive me insane
Baby, run your mouth, I still wouldn’t change
All this lovin’ you, hatin’ you, wantin’ you
I’m stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with
You, oh, oh

[Outro: Ariana Grande]
Stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with you
