Emotional

Patrik Berger (2014 demo)

## Audio

"**Emotional**", (originally titled "**All Over**") is a song by Charli XCX from her 2017 mixtape *Number 1 Angel*.

## Leak History

* July 24th, 2017 - A 47 second snippet of the 2014 demo leaks online.
* August 27th, 2018 - The full 2014 demo leaks online.

## Background

Emotional was originally a demo that Charli wrote with Patrik Berger on 2014. They did many extra songs on that session so Charli sent the demo to A. G. Cook to look at.

Him and EASYFUN added and changed chords throughout the song, making the vocal melody feel "as dramatic as possible." The production of the track changed a few times, mostly to fit a certain atmosphere or feel on the song. Charli always saw it as a much more epic, large-scale pop song.

## Lyrics

All over, deep under my skin

You got me so emotional

We had somethin' that never happened

If only we had lost control

Both got the feelin'

Hit like karate

Had boyfriends and girlfriends

We wanted to touch, but we could never make any moves

Both got the feelin'

Guilty desire

Your body, my body

We were close, but still so far away

When the lights go out, when the lights go out

Will you be there?

Wanna lay you down, wanna lay you down

Down in my bed

Tellin' right from wrong, tellin' right from wrong

All this self control is so emotional

Yeah, it's so emotional

All over, deep under my skin

You got me so emotional

We had somethin' that never happened

If only we had lost control

Oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

The car in the driveway

The questions in her mouth

This secret is risky

So we have to keep all these fantasies to ourselves

Clothes on the carpet

Over at my house

I wish we could do it

We came so close, but still we push away

When the lights go out, when the lights go out

Will you be there?

Wanna lay you down, wanna lay you down

Down in my bed

Tellin' right from wrong, tellin' right from wrong

All this self control is so emotional

Yeah, it's so emotional

All over

Deep under my skin

You got me so emotional

We had somethin' that never happened

If only we had lost control

Oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

When the lights go out, when the lights go out

Will you be there?

Wanna lay you down, wanna lay you down

Down in my bed

Tellin' right from wrong, tellin' right from wrong

All this self control is so emotional

Yeah, it's so emotional

All over

Deep under my skin

You got me so emotional

We had somethin' that never happened

If only we had lost control

Oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional (You got me so emotional)

Oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, so emotional

Yeah, it's so emotional
