Thrill your day with this amazing song from Christina Perri titled “Human“.
“Human” is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Christina Perri for her second studio album, Head or Heart (2014). The song was written by Perri, Kurtis Conner, and Martin Johnson, who also produced the song. It was released on November 18, 2013 as the lead single for the album. Released to generally positive reviews, “Human” has since become a Top 10 Adult Pop hit in the United States, as well as her third top 40 entry on the Billboard Hot 100. It was certified Platinum by RIAA in June 2014.
“Human” was written by Perri and Kurtis Conner in April 2013, and was produced by Martin Johnson. The song was written at the end of a long session of song-writing, and originally Perri wasn’t sure if the song would be in the album because she felt it was too personal, but because of the positive reactions to the song, she decided to put in the album and chose it as the lead single. The song was released on iTunes on November 18, 2013, and Perri debuted the song with a performance on The Queen Latifah Show the same day. “Human” impacted American hot adult contemporary radio on December 9, 2013.
Like previous singles “Jar of Hearts” and “Arms”, “Human” is largely built around a piano melody and showcases her voice. It is a pop power ballad written in key Ab major, and features a strong build-up towards the chorus. The song features a string arrangement by notable arranger David Campbell. Critics have compared Perri’s honest, heart-on-her-sleeve songwriting to that of Taylor Swift. Lyrically, “Human” uses relatable yet specific details to describe the vulnerability of being human. The verses find Perri musing the things she would do for love, yet as she sings in the chorus, “I’m only human / And I bleed when I fall down.”
On its week of release, the song debuted on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart at No. 1. It entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart at No. 90 for the chart dated February 22, 2014, and peaked at No. 31 on the Hot 100 for the chart dated May 3, 2014. The song reached its millionth digital sales mark in June 2014.
The song debuted on at No. 71 on the Canadian Hot 100 chart on its week of release.
The official music video for “Human” premiered on January 3, 2014 and was uploaded to Perri’s YouTube account the following day. The video was directed by Elliott Sellers (former drummer of American death metal band, Job for a Cowboy) and features Perri as a robot sitting in a white room, with close-ups of the mechanics working inside of her body. As Perri begins to move, various body parts are shown to be bionic. Towards the end of the video, Perri begins to transform from a machine into a human as sparks fall behind her; her tattoos reappear as a symbol of her individuality and her robotic heart begins to pump fluid around her body. – Wikipedia

Some Quotable Lyrics
I can hold my breath
I can bite my tongue
I can stay awake for days
If that’s what you want
Be your number one
I can fake a smile
I can force a laugh
I can dance and play the part
If that’s what you ask
Give you all I am
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it
But I’m only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I’m only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
‘Cause I’m only human
