About

“You’re Not Special, Babe” was released on July 7th, 2021, and is the fifth single for Orla Gartland’s upcoming album Woman On The Internet.

The song is written in a message to self style, acting as somewhat of a slap to reality—albeit a kind one.

You’re Not Special, Babe Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you could see yourself from the outside in
You'd say you don't have to be more thin
It's okay
And if you could see yourself from above the sky
I think you'd say that you're doing fine

[Pre-Chorus]
Life is short until it's not
Honestly it's kinda long
It takes a while to come around
People always let you down
Find the ones that get you
Stick to them like hot glue
Dance if you want to

[Chorus]
'Cause you're not special, babe (No!)
I know you feel like your life is one big mistake
I am right there on your side
You're not special, babe (No!)
'Cause we all go from heartbreak to happy to heartbreak
Some things just don't change

[Verse 2]
You
You're an adult now
Make your own to-do list
And eat whatever you want for breakfast, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Get a job just to get by
Spend your money till you die
Some people don't stick around
But don't let yourself down
Find the ones that get you
Stick to them like hot glue
And dance if you want to

[Chorus]
'Cause you're not special, babe (No!)
I know you feel like your life is one big mistake
I am right there on your side
You're not special, babe (No!)
'Cause we all go from heartbreak to happy to heartbreak
Some things just don't change

[Post-Chorus]
Dun-dun-dun-dun
Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun
Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun
Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun
Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun

[Bridge]
Everyone cries, everyone lies, everyone hates you
Everyone's so scared of the future, it's true
Everyone fucks up and then breaks up and then makes up
Everyone has days where they don't wanna wake up
Everyone loves, everyone loses and they're on their own
When everyone else is covered in bruises but we feel alone
And everyone hears us but they all seem to ignore us
Everyone else wants to get right back to the chorus

[Chorus]
You're not special, babe (No!)
I know you feel like your life is one big mistake
I am right there on your side
You're not special, babe (No!)
'Cause we all go from heartbreak to happy to heartbreak
Some things just don't change

[Outro]
Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun
Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun
Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun
Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun

What did Orla Gartland say about "You're Not Special, Babe"?

Growing up is weird and my twenties feel like chaos. “You’re Not Special, Babe” is a coming-of-age song written to remind myself that everyone goes through all of it; good times, bad times, strange times, dizzying highs & extreme lows. The title sounds mean but it’s really meant to be a comforti...

What have the artists said about the song?

track 2, ‘you’re not special, babe’ – these repeated vocal samples in the verse are a nod to ‘o superman’ by Laurie Anderson! one of my all time faves

the bouncy pre-chorus bass part of YOU’RE NOT SPECIAL BABE is one of my fave parts on the album
