Born in London, he is the son of writer Ann Dexter-Jones and real estate tycoon Laurence Ronson. His mother later married Mick Jones, lead guitarist of multiplatinum selling rock band Foreigner. He has two sisters: fashion designer Charlotte Ronson and DJ Samantha Ronson. He spent his childhood in a wealthy suburb of London where he lived on the same street as Paul McCartney‘s family. When his parents divorced at age 8, he moved to New York, where he made friends with John Lennon's son, Sean Lennon.
Ronson played guitar and drums from an early age, but it wasn't until moving to New York City with his mother that Ronson discovered DJ culture. At age 16, already a fan of such popular hip-hop artists as Run-D.M.C. and the Beastie Boys, Ronson began listening to the various hip-hop mixtapes released every few months by DJs. Inspired, Ronson confiscated his father's record collection and began trying his hand at mixing.
The young DJ with the diverse taste soon caught the ears and eyes of various socialites and New York celebrities, including fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger, who featured Ronson along with other sons and daughters of celebrities in a 1997 fashion campaign. A year later, hip-hop mogul Sean "P. Diddy" Combs hired Ronson to DJ his fabled 29th birthday bash. These and other high-profile gigs boosted Ronson's "hip quotient" and helped promote his more serious-minded music career. Fusing his eclectic turntable skills with his knowledge of musical instruments and songwriting, Ronson eventually embarked on his first solo project. Featuring such diverse guest artists as dancehall rapper Sean Paul, hip-hop artist Mos Def, Jack White of the White Stripes, and Rivers Cuomo of Weezer, Ronson's debut album, Here Comes the Fuzz, bowed for Elektra in 2003.
Ronson's second album, Version, adds to his eclectic style. In this sophomore album, Ronson fuses a range of musical genres from Daniel Merriweather to Ol' Dirty Bastard to Phantom Planet with an up tempo contemporary funk sound. All the songs on this album are covers of previous Billboard top-10 pop songs, with a jazzy twist.
Career
Attending Vassar College and then New York University (NYU), Ronson became a regular at downtown hip-hop spots and made his name as a DJ on the New York club scene in 1993. He was soon one of the most respected DJs and was being called on for celebrities' private parties. Ronson is known for his diverse, genre-spanning selection, influenced by both the hip-hop scene of New York and the more rock influence of the UK, amongst others.
He moved on, however, to producing music. After producing Nikka Costa's song "Everybody Got Their Something," Ronson signed a record contract with Elektra Records. His first album Here Comes the Fuzz was released in 2003 and was a critically acclaimed success that featured artists of all genres, despite initially poor sales. The most well known song from the album, " Ooh Wee" samples " Sunny" by Boney M and features Nate Dogg, Ghostface Killah, and Trife Da God. He has since produced multiple songs on the albums of singers Christina Aguilera, Amy Winehouse, Lily Allen, and Robbie Williams.
In 2004, he formed his own record label, Allido Records, a subsidiary of Sony BMG's J Records, along with his longtime manager Rich Kleiman. The first artist he signed to Allido was rapper Rhymefest, most well-known for winning the Grammy for co-writing Kanye West's "Jesus Walks".
In March 2006, Ronson released a cover of Radiohead's " Just" as a single. In certain areas, such as the UK, it gained major radio play. It also saw release as part of Exit Music: Songs with Radio Heads, a full Radiohead covers CD, in April, later appearing on Ronson's second album, Version, which was released in the UK on 16 April 2007. It includes other covers of a diverse selection of rock & pop songs including: Kaiser Chiefs' " Oh My God" (featuring guest vocals from Lily Allen), an instrumental version of Coldplay's " God Put A Smile Upon Your Face", Britney Spears' "Toxic", Ryan Adams' "Amy", Maxïmo Park's " Apply Some Pressure", The Zutons' "Valerie" and Kasabian's "L.S.F.".
Find U Again
Mark Ronson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But they don't have a shot when I compare them to you
It's too late, too late
Baby, I know I'll never find you again
Find you again
Baby, baby, I
Walk in the late night
Put up a fight to find you
Lose it every time
You were the last of your kind
All of the blame's mine
And I remember you told me
That we could work it all out, don't you worry
And now the tears in your eyes make it blurry
But if you say, "Try again", I'd be ready
I'm ready, yeah
I'll try to pass the night away with somebody new
But they don't have a shot when I compare them to you
It's too late, too late
Baby, I know I'll never find you again
Find you again
Have mercy on me, please
I messed up to the third degree
This crush is kind of crushing me
I do therapy at least twice a week
There's a you-shaped space in my bed
Always you-shaped thoughts inside my head, like
I keep pushing them right into you
La Cienega, where I remember you
And I remember you told me (told me)
That we could work it all out, don't you worry (yeah, yeah)
And now the tears in your eyes make it blurry (oh)
But if you say try again, I'd be ready
I'm ready
I'll try to pass the night away with somebody new
But they don't have a shot when I compare them to you
It's too late, too late
Baby, I know I'll never find you again
Find you again
Find you again
Find you again
Find you again
Find you again (it's too late)
Find you again (it's too late)
Find you again (it's too late)
Find you again (it's too late)
(Find you again) I'll try to pass the night away
(Find you again) with somebody new
(Find you again) But they don't have a shot
(Find you again) when I compare them to you
(Find you again) it's too late
Too late
Baby, I know I'll never find you again
Find you again
The song "Find U Again" by Mark Ronson featuring singer Camila Cabello is about the desperation of trying to replace a past lover. The lyrics convey the idea that the person has tried to forget about their past lover by seeing other people, but they realize that they can never find someone who compares to that person. They remember how their partner had told them that they could work it all out, but now it seems too late, and they will never find that person again. The song talks about the emptiness that comes after a relationship ends and the pain of trying to move on.
The chorus of the song, "I'll try to pass the night away with somebody new, but they don't have a shot when I compare them to you" shows how the pain of losing someone can create an impossible void to fill. The verse, "There's a you-shaped space in my bed, always you-shaped thoughts inside my head" illustrates how the memory of the person remains and permeates every aspect of their life. The song ends with the line, "Baby, I know I'll never find you again," which leaves the listener with a sense of finality.
Line by Line Meaning
I'll try to pass the night away with somebody new
Trying to distract myself with someone new
But they don't have a shot when I compare them to you
No one measures up to you
It's too late, too late
It's too late to fix things
Baby, I know I'll never find you again
Realizing that I'll never find someone like you again
Baby, baby, I
Still thinking about you
Walk in the late night
Wandering around at night
Looking for your eyes
Searching for you
Put up a fight to find you
Trying hard to find you
Lose it every time
Failing every time
You were the last of your kind
You were unique and irreplaceable
All of the blame's mine
Taking full responsibility for what went wrong
And I remember you told me
Recalling your words
That we could work it all out, don't you worry
Thinking back to the hope you gave me
And now the tears in your eyes make it blurry
Feeling emotional and sad about the situation
But if you say, "Try again", I'd be ready
Willing to give it another chance
I'll try to pass the night away with somebody new
Trying to forget about you
But they don't have a shot when I compare them to you
No one can replace you
It's too late, too late
Regretting not fixing things sooner
Baby, I know I'll never find you again
Knowing that I've lost you forever
Have mercy on me, please
Asking for forgiveness and understanding
I messed up to the third degree
Admitting to making a big mistake
This crush is kind of crushing me
Feeling overwhelmed by the intensity of my feelings
I do therapy at least twice a week
Seeking professional help to deal with my emotions
There's a you-shaped space in my bed
Feeling your absence in everything
Always you-shaped thoughts inside my head, like
Constantly thinking about you
I keep pushing them right into you
Trying to forget, but always coming back to you
La Cienega, where I remember you
Reminiscing about our memories together in La Cienega
Find you again
Hoping to find you again
