Ella Henderson - Mirror Man(#ad)
Released from her 2014 album, Chapter One..Ella Henderson's "Mirror Man" deals with a specific individual whose unstoppable vanity and narcissism, pi**** off Ella so much, she decided to write a song about it.
Known in the U.K for her soft, simple and positive songs, Ella Henderson the X Factor find shook the very foundations of her fan base..when she released "Mirror Man", where she trolls a hot guy who adores himself, standing in front of a mirror..every other second.
With lines such as "Mirror man, no one could love you Better than a mirror can, no" , Ella would make a guy watching this video, to think twice before looking at the mirror again.
The song is based on a real life dude with whom Ella fell in love, but he never reciprocated her love nor did he love anyone else but himself.A dejected, irritated Ella Henderson decided to let that guy know, how vain he is.
There are not many songs based on 'male narcissism' , a vague topic but a blunt reality practiced by 90% of men around the globe.
The only song based on the theme of 'male narcissism' that reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100 charts,is Carly Simon's "You're So Vain" released way back in November, 1972.
"Mirror Man" has many similarities with "You're So Vain" especially the lyrics, but for some reason the critics had over looked it while reviewing Ella Henderson's song.
Music video for "Mirror Man" has 3.77 million views on YouTube with 32,685 likes to date.The video starts with Ella staring & singing at three mirrors with decorating bulbs and a mirror stand.
As a sun-tanned white guy (who looks awfully similar to Matt from Vampire Diaries), wearing a half sleeves black tshirt..makes his way into the video.
Ella looks at him as smoke comes out of her eyes instead of tears.The stubborn looking guy walks straight infront of the mirror,turns left and right admiring himself with a smirk.
Just then a black panther and a female native American in her traditional dress, make their entrance into the video, as Ella Henderson sings with a bare chest wearing an unzipped jacket.
As the native American gets into a position to hunt the panther...the panther starts roaring, hissing and growling.
This simple yet effective music video had many fans compare her with Adele for their similar looks as well as their voices.
"The First Time" is another song from the same album, Chapter One where Ella mesmerized the listener with her high-pitch voice.
Mirror Man - Ella Henderson - Lyrics
Release Date - March 8th, 2015
Album - Chapter One
When we began, you could be so shy
But by the end, you became a different guy
And so I thought your eyes were fixed on me
But now I know, yourself is all you wanna see!
Mirror man, no one could love you
Better than a mirror can, no
Mirror man, I'll make it easier
For you to understand, oh yeah
I think you're falling for you
Someone should tell ya the truth
You see perfection in your reflection
And trouble's coming for you
Mirror man (Mirror man), I wish I could love you
Better than a mirror can!
You would say that I'm your only one,
But I would tell you to walk before you run
And I was right and I realize it now,
Guess I'm attracted to the kind that let me down!
Mirror man, no one could love you
Better than a mirror can, no
Mirror man, I'll make it easier
For you to understand, oh yeah
I think you're falling for you
Someone should tell ya the truth
You see perfection in your reflection
And trouble's coming for you
'Cause all this foolish pride
Makes you the ugly guy
You can try to change,
But you've already lost your way
Why don't you hear what I say?
Yeah, I think you're falling for you
Someone should tell ya the truth, oh no
You see perfection in your reflection
And trouble's coming for you
Mirror man (Mirror man), I wish I could love you
Better than a mirror can! (Ooh)
Ooh
