OK, I am not a huge Meghan Trainor fan. That being said I absolutely love her song "Me Too". I find it to be inspiring, motivating, and up lifting. It is a very happy, fun, catchy song. But it is getting a considerable amount of heat saying that Meghan is being self-involved and self-obsessed with this song. I disagree. I think this song is about self-confidence and self-worth. You are the best you ever! We should strive to be someone else we should strive to be true to ourselves. We are all amazing and unique. This world would be boring if we were all the same and I want to be me.
"I thank God everyday"
And we should. Life is short you never know when it is going to end so you should wake up each day and thank God that you exist. That you are still here and for all the good he has put into your life. God is great and sometimes we are scared to admit it or acknowledge it in today's society.
“That I woke up feelin’ this way”
She is feeling great! She is happy! And I want to be too and this song puts me in a good mood and makes me happy and excited to go on with my day! Stay happy every new day brings new experiences and new joys so go out there and get them!
“And I can’t help loving myself”
We should all love ourselves, show ourselves respect. We are who we are and we should be happy with it. If you are not you need to go after whatever it is in life that will make you happy and to allow you to love yourself for exactly who you are.
“And I don’t need any one nobody else, nuh uh”
You do not need someone else in order to be happy! You are enough all on your own. This is hard and I struggle with this all the time, but the only person you really need is you. Now do not get me wrong you can accept and even ask for help but, you need to know that even if they do not help you could manage it without them. You are enough. You can do anything. You are amazing!
“If I was you, I’d wanna be me too”
This is the line that takes the most heat. To me, she is not saying that everyone should be like her, she is saying that she is perfectly happy being the person she is. IF she was doing something else, she would wish she was doing exactly what she is doing right now.
To me this song is about being proud of your self! Be who you are and don’t try to be anything else. You are perfect just the way you are!
Put it all together and you get a power ballad!
“I thank God every day
That I woke up feelin' this way
And I can't help lovin' myself
And I don't need nobody else, nuh uh
If I was you, I'd wanna be me too
I'd wanna be me too
I'd wanna be me, too
If I was you, I'd wanna be me too
I'd wanna be me too
I'd wanna be me, too”
