LYRICS:
Now and then I think of you and me and what we used to have
And I remember when we were together
Now and then I think of that time when we called it love
But then I think of all the times you screwed me over

Yeah I was falling hard
With an open heart
I had a heart then
But I let it fall, my heart
But I'll pick up these broken pieces
'Cause this is not the end

[Chorus]
So tonight, I wanna let go and dance, dance away
Tonight, I just wanna love again
Tonight, I wanna hit the floor and dance, dance away
Tonight, I'll be out, I'll be looking for you babe

Ehhhh, hey I just met you
You heard that I was with someone new
Ehhhh, and this is crazy
But I found someone to carry me home maybe

Oooh
If you're a wild one, let me know
Oooh
'Cause I got to let it go

I know it's hard to remember the people we used to be
There's a side to you that I never knew, never knew
I gave you my love to borrow, but you just gave it away
Yeah I stopped using my head, using my head let it all go

So c-c'mon, you think you got the best of me
You got it wrong, think you had the last laugh
To prove I'm right I put it in a so-o-ong
Out of the lion's den
I don't have to pretend (C-c-c'mon)
Baby you don't know 'cause you're dead wrong

Some nights I'm wide awake
Some nights I feel like falling down
Some nights you know the bed feels warmer
But I'm not sleeping now
It's the way I'm feeling I just can't deny
This time, I'm telling you, I'm telling you

[Chorus]

(Here we go)
Let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die
Let's get it, let's get it, I know you got the good feeling
Let's get it, let's get it, gotta love the life we're living
Let's get it, let's get it, I know you got the good feeling
Let's make the most of the night

Turn the lights out now
You turned out the lights
Yeah I was in the dark (It was dark)
The dark is too hard to beat
So shine bright
We can burn brighter than the sun (The sun goes down)
All black shades when the sun comes through (uh oh)

No you didn't have to change your number
I'm at a payphone trying to call
You took your time with the call
And I know I said it a million times
But I think I'm finally getting over you

Na na na na na

[Chorus]

In the end, I choose to be happy
You gave me nothing at all
I don't even need your love
The story is over now
The end

You are very clearly indebted to Earworm.

Earworm's mashup was shockingly bad this year and yours is much, much better.

[Pleasant_]

Djdrybones was somebody that we used to know. But still unforgettable.

[JosephJamesMashups]

About 6 and a half years later and I am still so obsessed with this. I still listen to this amazing mashup on a regular basis and I probably will for the rest of my life.

[cadecapper]

2012 was honestly the best year for music

[raymundoaguirre]

This makes 2012 look so epic and majestic for music

[axdimilien]

Still my fav ! I spend so many times of 2012 & 13 with this one! I used to hear this in thunder nights. Suddenly it hit me tonight of 2023. Magical ❤

[TCovenantUnbeliever]

I fucking love this mashup. I love how it forms a coherent lyrical whole, rather than being disjointed clips of songs. I love how it uses the moods of the various songs to contribute to its overall feeling. I love how it builds from start to finish. I love how the music and the lyrics both create the same emotion. Its a goddamn amazing mashup.

[ytpmvsux]

i miss it when you were able to see what song was mixed into the acapella and instrumental. i remember the final chorus having the most insane mix of songs into its instrumental, a legendary mashup.

[LunchinBox]

6 years later and still my favorite mashup of all time. Sad to see Drybones go.

[LunchinBox]

I wish this was more popular. This mashup is amazing and deserved more popularity. I haven't stopped playing this since 2012.

[Tirgo]

I couldn't even tell you how many times random bits from this have started playing in my head over the years

[suakusai]

This is the best not just for 2012, but of all time.

[StarMashups]

SERIOUSLY?!?! WAS EXPECTING THIS TO HAVE 1 MILLION VIEWS ALREADY

[joyjenkins]

This mashup means so much to me, so... thank you. I hope you're doing okay

[DylanGLC]

This and Earworm's 2009 mix are definitely the best year end mashups!

[Jcop]

This not only wipes the floor with DJ Earworm's mashup, but also plays Quidditch with it.

[djdrybones]

The other four would've been "Turn Me On", "Part Of Me", "The One That Got Away", and "Blow Me (One Last Kiss)", all of them great songs as well. :)

[JeftaStefano]

2018 and still think THIS IS THE BEST MASHUP EVER

[michaelolympus]

Dude I miss you so much 😢 please come back. Your mashups are always great, I play them everytime I want to remember the good times.

[OlEgSaS]

Every love and breakup song EVER, literally, which makes it the ULTIMATE love and breakup song ever, this is absolutely brilliant, i love this
