Although Gryffin has recently been on the cusp of a major breakthrough, he began his musical journey growing up as a classically trained pianist, before expanding his sonic palette with guitar at an early age. He played in bands to initially hone his instrumental abilities, until he dove head first into the world of music production at the University of Southern California. Throughout college and beyond, Gryffin further refined his skills that have blossomed into his artistic mastery that is appreciated by his counterparts and adoring fans around the world. In his genre, artists typically DJ to showcase their talents, but live performance is where his heart lies in capturing the essence of his work.
With a world-debut at this past SnowGlobe Music Festival, Gryffin unveiled his anticipated live performance to finally connect with those who have been behind his impressive play counts. His passion and love for musicianship, and artistry within music shined through as he performed with live instrumentation (guitar, keyboard, synths, & drum pads) in a continuous dance music format to keep up the energy characteristic of DJ sets. Since this performance was a resounding success, the excitement is brewing for his next two sold-out shows at Los Angeles’ The Roxy, and New York’s Bowery Ballroom to close out his first-ever live tour.
Following the conclusion of the tour, Gryffin made the leap to his first original production, “Heading Home” featuring Josef Salvat, which immediately became #1 on Spotify’s Global Viral 50 chart, US Viral Chart, and accumulated a million plays in one week after being released via Darkroom/Interscope Records. It’s already looking like 2016 is going to be Gryffin’s biggest year yet.
Body Back
Gryffin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause you know they're gonna say it anyway
(And I know and I know that)
Who cares if they laugh at what we do?
'Cause it's only me and you that know the truth
(And I know and I know that)
Middle finger to the sky
We've been rollin' deeper than they'll ever know
Even though I broke your heart
No, that won't keep us apart
Baby, I know, I know, I'm not giving you up
If you want my lovin' you got it anytime you want it
Baby, bring your body back to me
They can call me foolish and stupid
Don't know why I do this
But, baby, bring your body back to me
I know, I know, I'm not giving you up
(And I know and I know that)
I know, I know, I'm not giving you up
If you want my lovin' you got it anytime you want it
Baby, bring your body back to me
I know, I know, I'm not giving you up, giving you up
I, I know, I know, I'm not giving you up
(And I know and I know that)
I know, I know, I'm not giving you up, giving you up
Baby, bring your body back to me
Who cares what the world's gonna think?
'Cause you know they're gonna think it anyway
(And I know and I know that)
I love all the bad things that we do
Shut your mouth and put your hands where I want you to (want you to)
(And I know and I know that)
Middle finger to the sky
They don't know 'bout you and I
We've been rollin' deeper than they'll ever know
Even though I broke your heart
No, that won't keep us apart
Baby, I know, I know, I'm not giving you up
If you want my lovin' you got it anytime you want it
Baby, bring your body back to me
They can call me foolish and stupid
Don't know why I do this
But, baby, bring your body back to me
I know, I know, I'm not giving you up
(And I know and I know that)
I know, I know, I'm not giving you up
If you want my lovin' you got it anytime you want it
Baby, bring your body back to me
I know, I know, I'm not giving you up, giving you up
I, I know, I know, I'm not giving you up

"Body Back" by Gryffin, featuring Maia Wright is a song about being committed to a loved one despite the judgement or opinions of others. The song encourages listeners to prioritize their own happiness and to not worry about what others may think.
The lyrics suggest that the world is always going to have a say in what people do, but it's important not to let that dictate one's actions. The line "middle finger to the sky" expresses a sense of defiance and a refusal to conform to societal norms. Maia Wright's vocals are strong and powerful, conveying a sense of confidence and self-assurance.
The chorus repeats the message that the singer is not willing to give up on their love, and if the other person wants their love, they can have it anytime. The lyrics "bring your body back to me" suggest a physical and emotional reunion that is absolute and uncompromising. The melody of the song is upbeat and danceable, adding to the sense of excitement and determination to stay together.

Language does not matter much depending on your taste. It depends on many things. Most people dont really have to care.
@raspberryb1664
HTZGAMER bad language? Are you five? Plus since your 5 I bet stupid is a bad word in you books, which has was been said in the song.
@MystikAzn4vr
Exactly. No shock value, gimmicks, controversial. More reliant on art and skill. I don't know why people are hating on you.
@shanzahmunaf4883

@johndorixhermosilla1915
Avicii got me started to like this type of music. And now, Gryffin, Illenium, TFR, Martin Garrix keeps that flow going.
@Robert-um7tj
Same here. I listened to levels in 2012 and haven’t looked back since. Gryffin reminds me most of my favorite DJ Avicii. RIP. I was blessed to see Gryffin in February in Portland and it was a life changing experience.
@johndorixhermosilla1915
@@Robert-um7tj I can only imagine how great the experience must be.
@KOP-ct2ov
Avicii ... I miss him so much
