The pop track has been slowly climbing the ARIA charts since its release about six weeks ago but Priest's track doesn't have the big red dot beside it which symbolises an Australian entry.
His minders EMI insist it is an Aussie song but ARIA say it's not. Meanwhile, Priest is in New York to finish his album and has lined up Wynter Gordon as a duet partner.
Are You Ready
Marvin Priest Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got the music, to break your fall
Im gonna use it, to make you roar
Oh, turn this round, round,
Once and for all
Yeah, no need for talk, talk, talk
Come on tell me how it feels like, yeah, yeah
We are dancing in the spotlight, yeah, yeah
Gonna party here tonight, whoa
So hit it once, whoa, then hit it twice, whoa
No it dont matter if you naughty or nice
So hit it once, whoa, then hit it twice, whoa
Just keep it going, keep it going all night
Are you ready, are you with me now?
Are you ready, get it started here tonight
Come on, come on
I got that cool funk, to make you crawl
Bet I make that groove funk and shake the walls
So we can bounce bounce, and get it on
Yeah, yeah, right up in here right now, now
Come on tell me how it feels like, yeah, yeah
We are dancing in the spotlight, yeah, yeah
Let the music set the tone right,
Gonna party here tonight, whoa
So hit it once, whoa, then hit it twice, whoa
No it dont matter if you naughty or nice
So hit it once, whoa, then hit it twice, whoa
Just keep it going, keep it going all night
So hit it once, whoa, then hit it twice, whoa
No it dont matter if you naughty or nice
So hit it once, whoa, then hit it twice, whoa
Just keep it going, keep it going all night
Are you ready, are you with me now?
Are you ready, get it started here tonight
Come on, come on.
