Product Description
Usher - Looking 4 Myself
"Moving Mountains" is song sung by American R&B singer Usher. The song was released on 23rd May 2008, and it was the third single from his fifth album Here I Stand.
The song was written by Usher together with The-Dream, Kuk Harrell and Christopher “Tricky” Stewart and later produced by The-Dream and Stewart. “Moving Mountains” was recorded as a slow tempo ballad with the lyrics describing a love struggle.
Usher is one celebrity who has taken a good deal of lawsuits from his great lifestyle. He was recently sued by three different people who claimed he infected them with herpes and what’s more interesting is that one of them is a man.
The two ladies say that the celebrity singer had sex with them and contracted the herpes virus.According to horrifying court documents, Usher was diagnosed with herpes either in 2009 or 2010.
Remember this is the time that he was finalizing his divorce from his first wife Tameka Foster who had accused him of cheating.
It is illegal in the state of California to transmit an STD either knowingly or recklesslyand this is the place where the case was filed.
The cases are being handled by celebrity lawyer Lisa Bloom who is representing all the three. She is claiming that the singer had sexual contact with them and he neglected to warn them of his alleged DTD as required by the law.
The Grammy Award-winning star has since married a second wife Grace Miguel after he divorced his first wife.
He is estimated to be worth 138 million pounds and in 2012, the same court documents revealed that he had paid $800,000 to his ex-lover who claimed he infected her with the same virus and they settled the case out of court.
The song "Moving Mountains" received positive criticism and it appeared on the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.
The song peaked highest in New Zealand where it reached number six on the singles chart and it was later certified gold.
The song video has 59 million views on YouTube and still growing. The only thing about the celebrity we hope won’t grow further is the herpes infections claims.
Album Description
On June 8, 2012, RCA Records released Usher’s album Looking 4 Myself which was produced by Jim Jonsin, Rico Love, Diplo, Max Martin and Pharrell Williams among others.
Luke Steele and ASAP Rocky are among the guest vocalists featured on this album. On being released, this collection of tracks was met with positive reviews from fans and critics commended its genre diversity.
By October 2014, the album had sold 504,000 copies in the US only and on top of that, it scored a top ten position in most countries globally during its early days of release.
Among the tracks supported in Looking 4 Myself includes “Climax”, ‘Lemme see’, and ‘Scream’ that features Rick Ross.
The artists performed live on Saturday Night Live, Good Morning America, and The off-Broadway Show Fuerza Bruta: Look Up to promote his tracks even though Numb and Dive songs were peaking to the top.
In the UK, Usher performed live on June 9, 2012, in the Capital Summer Time Ball and at the 2012 Electronic Entertainment Expo in La, he performed Scream.
His tour to promote the album started on January 18, 2013, from Amsterdam and ended in France on March 14. Looking 4 Myself made billions commercially especially the Japanese Multinational Conglomerate Sony who made $92 in revenue.
The music video for Climax was nominated for Best Male Video at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards but lost to Chris Brown.
At the time, Usher made a mistake of exposing a woman to herpes but that scandal did not surface until recently.
The artist will not settle the lawsuit according to TMZ. He was also in a bar fight back in 2015 where his girlfriend at the time, Grace Miguel, helped him but the brawl he got left him with a red eye.
Usher - Moving Mountains - Lyrics
Release Date - May 23, 2008
Album - Here I Stand
It's like whatever I do,
Ooh
Just can't get through to you
Ooh, ooh
I'm never gonna tell anything wrong
Ooh, ooh,
Listen
Oh
Now, now she loved me, shawty I loved her
Used to jump up in the Maybach and roll out
Used to care, she used to share
The love that she used to give me can't be found
I lost my way, she said she'd stay
And lately I've been sleeping with a ghost
My stock is down and out, I used to be worth my weight in gold
That was before a great depression kicked in and rocked us
And that was before the hurricane came in and stopped us
I told you to leave, but you lied to me
When you said that, baby no worries I promise to get us back
I know sorries, just wouldn't do it
Her heart is obliterated, I'm trying to travel through
But it's like moving mountains...
It's like moving mountains... hey.
But I keep climbing and hoping things would change
And the sky turns gray, and the water from the rain washes progress away.
It's like moving mountains... (moving mountains)
It's like moving mountains... (moving mountains)
Why just leave me?
Just leave me be
Just leave me
Just leave me be
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be, ooh, ooh
Be, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoaaa, whoa
She, she don't touch me, I don't touch her
We rarely even ever say a word
I really want to give her everything she deserves
But the bad took away the good
She thinks that I'm full of it, arguments, always pissed, man I'm tired
Every kiss that I miss, girl you know I'm trying
You never believe when I say, and I never believe it when you say
I love you, and I shouldn't complain about it
I should take it like a man and walk up out it
Cause we will never be the same, ooh
I've been standing in gas and you have been the flame
Well baby why you just leave me?
Just leave me be
Just leave me
Just leave me be.
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be, ooh
This must be a slow death that I'm traveling on
It feels so wrong, I'm barely holdin' on...
See no matter what it takes, I've gotta get it together, baby yeah
And these hills that I'm travelin' up
She ain't showing me love
I'm down on my love
Oh, I'm down
Whoa
Well baby why you just leave me?
Just leave me be
Just leave me
Just leave me be
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be
Why you just leave me
Just leave me be, ooh
Baby, baby
Whoa, yeah
