Nobody

"**Nobody**" is a song by Martin Jensen and James Arthur, released by Virgin Records on 1 March 2019. The official music video premiered to YouTube on 26 March 2019, directed by Cynical Smile. A collection of remixes was released on 28 June 2019.

Initially the song began with several featured singers, though Jensen couldn't "find the right singer for the song." He explained to *CelebMix* that it was "a one-and-a-half-year-old song" because of this. Eventually his team contacted James Arthur, who agreed to jump on the track. Concerning their collaboration, he said, "It was special because you know he's an A list topliner. It's normally very different working with guys who are on the A list, compared to working with guys that don't have a huge-ass management or a big label. But they've been super sweet the whole time! So yeah, it was fantastic working with him."

## Lyrics

**Lyrics**
[Verse 1: James Arthur]

Dressed up all night, there's no one to impress

Standing in lines till I smell like cigarettes

I don't know why my friends are so obsessed

With staying up till we're sober, wasting money on regrets

I lost my jacket, about to lose my mind

'Cause it's 5 AM and I got work at nine

I'm all alone heading for the exit signs

From the minute that I saw you, I started thinking twice

[Pre-Chorus: James Arthur]

There's something 'bout you, you steal the room

I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you

I'm freaking out, just tryna play it cool

I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you

[Chorus: James Arthur]

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you

No, no, nobody

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you

(I don't know nobody, nobody like)

Nobody, no, nobody like you

No, no, nobody

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you

I don't know nobody like

[Verse 2: James Arthur]

Fuck it, I'll stay till I'm the last one left

For one chance to say, "You're different than the rest"

We're face to face, tryna get it off my chest, yeah

The lights are going out here, wanna come to mine instead?

[Pre-Chorus: James Arthur]

There's something 'bout you, you steal the room

I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you

I'm freaking out, just tryna play it cool

I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you

[Chorus: James Arthur]

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you

No, no, nobody

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you

(I don't know nobody, nobody like)

Nobody, no, nobody like you

No, no, nobody

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you

I don't know nobody like

[Post-Chorus: James Arthur]

There's something 'bout you, you steal the room

I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you

I'm freaking out, I'm tryna play it cool

I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you

[Bridge: James Arthur]

Nobody, nobody like you

Nobody, nobody like you

Nobody, nobody like you

I don't know nobody like you

Nobody, nobody like you

Nobody, nobody like you

Nobody, nobody like you

I don't know nobody like you

[Chorus: James Arthur]

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you

No, no, nobody

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you

(I don't know nobody, nobody like)

Nobody, no, nobody like you

No, no, nobody

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you

I don't know nobody like
