“Beat of My Drum” is the first single from British recording artist Nicola Roberts‘ upcoming debut studio album, Cinderella’s Eyes.
The song was released in the United Kingdom and Ireland on June 5th, 2011, as the album’s lead single. The up-tempo pop song was written by Roberts, Maya von Doll, Wesley “Diplo” Pentz, and Dimitri Tikovoi, and produced by Diplo and Tikovoi.
On May 2, 2010, Roberts officially joined Twitter and launched her official website to announce the debut of the single.
Following twenty-top ten singles, Girls Aloud announced a hiatus in 2009. In late 2010 reports surfaced that Roberts had begun working on solo material due for a 2011 release. In August, Roberts said, “I’ve been in the studio non-stop doing all of my own song writing.”
The News of the World reported in December 2010 that Roberts had signed with Universal.
Lyrics for Nicola Roberts – Beat Of My Drum
Once upon a time I pressed rewind
Two left feet, I had no beat
Baby in the corner learning quick
Keep up, keep up, keep up
Graduation take a bow
See how strong you’ve made me now
Two steppin’ all over me, then cha cha cha cha
I’m in!Oohh don’t it make your heart go wow
Oohh how I’ve turned this whole thing round[Chorus:]
L.O.V.E
Dance to the beat of my drum
Dance to the beat of my drum
L.O.V.E
Dance to the beat of my drum
Dance to the beat of my drumLeader of the pack get on that track
Swing your back and don’t look back
Captain attending, too much to handle
Too hot, the pan goes pop
Blow your trumpet like you do
I put on my marchin’ boots
I know we can work it out
Let’s step into the grooveOohh don’t it make your heart go wow
Oohh how I’ve turned this whole thing round[Chorus:]
L.O.V.E
Dance to the beat of my drum
Dance to the beat of my drum
L.O.V.E
Dance to the beat of my drum
Dance to the beat of my drum[Breakdown]
[Chorus:]
L.O.V.E
Dance to the beat of my drum
Dance to the beat of my drum
L.O.V.E
Dance to the beat of my drum
Dance to the beat of my drum
