Valentin started his musical career with a djembe gifted by his parents to him at the age of five. Valentin grew up listening to rock and roll classics with his father, including The Who and The Kooks. Discovering a passion for electronic music in his teenage years, Kungs became interested in melodic sounds and crafted timbres led by a dominant vocal. By the age of seventeen he had begun creating melodies using his own instruments. Valentin then began sharing remixes across online social networks. His remixes of "Jamming" by Bob Marley and the Wailers and "West Coast" by Lana Del Rey featuring new vocals from Molly both reached several million plays on SoundCloud and YouTube. Kungs's remix of Lost Frequencies' "Are You with Me" achieved more than 16 million views on YouTube. He released his first extended play This Girl in 2016 following his remix of Cookin' on 3 Burners "This Girl", which reached number 2 on the UK Singles Chart in 2016. He has since released a single called "Don't You Know" featuring Jamie N Commons.
This Girl
Kungs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But keep the change 'cause I've got enough
A little time and some tenderness
You'll never buy my love
No other thing that's as precious to
No other! There's no other!
And a heart that's real and a heart that's true
Wooh!
Take my hand
Or take over
Take my hand you
Or take over
Take my hand you
Or take over
Take my hand
Or take over
These presents don't really come for free
Your paychecks don't mean that much to me
Just take my hand and hold me tight
You'll never buy my love!
You buy me this and you buy me that
To win over! Win me over!
You got me wrong and that's a fact
Somethin' that you've got to notice
Will you realize when I'm gone
That I dance to a different song
Will you realize when I'm gone
That I dance to a different song
It's a shame but I've got to go
Wooh!
Take my hand
Or take over
Take my hand you
Or take over
Take my hand you
Or take over
Take my hand
Or take over
The lyrics to Kungs's song "This Girl" speaks against the shallow practice of using money to buy love. The first verse says, "Money rains from the sky above, but keep the change 'cause I've got enough. A little time and some tenderness, you'll never buy my love." This shows that the singer values love that is genuine and not based on material possessions. The second verse continues this sentiment, saying "These presents don't really come for free, your paychecks don't mean that much to me. Just take my hand and hold me tight, you'll never buy my love!" The repetition of "you'll never buy my love" reinforces this message.
The chorus encourages the listener to take the singer's hand or "take over." The line "take my hand or take over" can be interpreted in different ways, such as the singer giving the listener an option to either genuinely connect with her or continue to try to buy her love. The bridge of the song asks the listener a poignant question, "Will you realize when I'm gone that I dance to a different song?" This suggests that the singer is not willing to compromise her values and what she believes in, even if it means ending a relationship.

Money rains from the sky above
Money is abundant and easy to come by
But keep the change 'cause I've got enough
I have sufficient wealth and don't need any more
A little time and some tenderness
All I need is your love and affection
You'll never buy my love
My love cannot be bought or won with material possessions
No other thing that's as precious to
There is nothing more valuable than
No other! There's no other!
This thing is unique and irreplaceable
And a heart that's real and a heart that's true
What is valuable is a genuine and honest heart
Somethin' that you've got to know this girl
You need to understand this about me
Wooh!
Expresses excitement or enthusiasm
Take my hand
Let's be together
Or take over
I'm willing to let you take control
These presents don't really come for free
Gifts come with strings attached
Your paychecks don't mean that much to me
Your money cannot win my affection
Just take my hand and hold me tight
All I need is your love and security
You'll never buy my love!
My love cannot be bought or won with material possessions
You buy me this and you buy me that
You try to win me over with gifts
To win over! Win me over!
You're trying to gain my favor
You got me wrong and that's a fact
Your strategy is misguided
Somethin' that you've got to notice
You need to recognize this about me
Will you realize when I'm gone
After I'm no longer around
That I dance to a different song
You will understand that I live life differently
It's a shame but I've got to go
It's regrettable but I need to leave
Take my hand
Let's be together
Or take over
I'm willing to let you take control
Take my hand you
I want us to be together
Or take over
I'm willing to let you take control
Take my hand you
I want us to be together
Or take over
I'm willing to let you take control
Take my hand
Let's be together
Or take over
I'm willing to let you take control
