Lyrics:
I've been cheated by you since I don't know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn?
I don't know how, but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire inside my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist ya?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I missed ya
Yeah, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know
Why I could never let you go
I've been angry and sad 'bout the things that you do
So I made up my mind to tell you that we're through
But when you go, when you slam the door
I think you know that I won't be away too long
You know I'm not that strong
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist ya?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I've missed ya
Yeah, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, even when I say
Bye-bye, take me now or never
Mamma mia, it's a game we play
Goodbye doesn't mean forever
Yeah, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know
Why I could never let you go

[@pdfbrander]

@@ThisOneCassie shh... its a joke

[@JPKloess]

@@ThisOneCassie Studios can and still do claim covers. For official productions, you need either a master use license (the recording of the original) or a sync license (a right to make your own recording). A cover on KZbin operates without a sync license or a master use license, but studios often leave it alone.

I could see this also work as a song where you speak about trying to let go of your self that personifies your guilts and grudges and misgivings, and still wanting to be with them/ coming back to them.

ever see that metul guy that plays songs in public? yeah his cameraman does that too, the only difference being the people actually react in his videos

[@mamby8134]

Right?! I think it's funny how he's so open and stand-out, which I think is kind of shocking to the Japanese people, especially the older generation. It cracks me up when the camera zooms in on shocked and uncomfortable people. LOL, They are probably wondering what is wrong with occidentals.

I don’t remember where I read the backstory to this…correct me if I’m wrong, but this trip was planned for many months, and when him and his girlfriend broke up, he took the trip with his father instead. His father helped him film this. Love this version of the song; it’s so good, almost on par with the original.

@@CATRPiLRRR to be fair, i don't think he was actually singing it. it's clearly a studio recording in the background; he was most likely just lip syncing to his recording since he had headphones on. you might get some weird looks in america-hell, he even did in japan, but i don't think anyone would care enough to come at you

[@kungfubeat321]

@@buckshotsshawty plus in japan, order is the norm. so a noisy individual would probs get reported by law abiding citizens (logan paul for example). so u right about him possibly lip syncing or singing softly. only ones giving him weird looks are those in his immediate area.
