Counting Stars

유투브 조회수 17억 [1]

원리퍼블릭이 낸 인생곡이자 간판곡이라고 할 수 있겠다.

나오고 나서 빌보드에 돌풍을 일으키며 첫주 등장부터 32위를 차지하고 2014년 1월 18일 빌보드 2위를 거머쥐는 쾌거를 달성했지만 하필 1위곡이 팀버였기 때문에 넘버원으로 올라서지는 못하고 떨어지게 되었다. 이제 돈을 세는 짓을 그만하겠다는 원리퍼블릭의 가사가 돋보인다.

2016년에만 12억, 13억, 14억으로 꾸준히 조회수를 높이더니 하반기엔 15억을 돌파시켰다.

2017년 3월 17억을 돌파하였다.

저스틴 비버의 baby를 추월했으며, 현재 유투브 전체 조회수는 16위로 좋은 양상을 보이고 있지만 역주행이 아닌 이상 10위에 들기는 힘들어 보인다. 그나마 꾸준히 조회수를 올리는 롱런 영상이라는게 위안이라면 위안일듯. 바로 앞인 15위는 sugar이지만 2015년에 발매된 곡이니 엎치락 뒤치락 하겠지만 결과적으론 sugar보다 아래에 위치할 수 있다.

Lately I've beenI've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby I've been I've been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Yeah we'll be counting stars

I see this life Like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
In my face is flashing signs
Seek it out and ye shall find
Old but I'm not that old
Young but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
I'm just doing what we're told


I feel something so right
doing the wrong thing
I feel something so wrong
doing the right thing
I could lie could lie could lie
Everything that kills me
makes me feel alive

Lately I've been I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby I've been I've been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Lately I've been I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby I've been I've been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be we'll be counting stars


I feel the love And I feel it burn
Down this river every turn
Hope is a four letter word
Make that money Watch it burn
Old but I'm not that old
Young but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
I'm just doing what we're told

And I feel something so wrong
doing the right thing
I could lie could lie could lie
Everything that drowns me
makes me wanna fly

Lately I've been I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby I've been I've been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars

Lately I've been I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby I've been I've been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be we'll be counting stars


Take that money And watch it burn
Sink in the river The lessons I learned
Take that money And watch it burn
Sink in the river The lessons I learned
Take that money And watch it burn
Sink in the river The lessons I learned
Take that money And watch it burn
Sink in the river The lessons I learned
Everything that kills me
makes me feel alive

Lately I've been I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby I've been I've been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars

Lately I've been I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby I've been I've been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be we'll be counting stars
Take that money And watch it burn
Sink in the river The lessons I learned
Take that money And watch it burn
Sink in the river The lessons I learned
Take that money And watch it burn

Take that money And watch it burn
Sink in the river The lessons I learned
