"I was processing and feeling the feelings and then lockdown happened and I had to spend a lot of time by myself and look within, as we all did I feel, and I realised that I’m actually my own boyfriend. I don’t need someone else to complete me, I don’t need an other half, I’m whole, so I really wanted to write a song capturing that essence. It’s a very societal thing that you’re always looking for your Prince Charming or that when you meet this person that you’ll be ‘whole’ or ‘successful’, like that’s the end goal. But I think the end goal is being happy by yourself, and if you do meet someone then it’s a really cute accessory - a cute addition to my life, but it’s not completing my life. It’s not the whole look, he’s just the bag!" -Olivia Dean
Dear Olivia, you reached this wisdom at such an early age..... lucky you! I came to this conclusion after 2 divorces above 45 but now I feel so complete and happy! :D Your songs are great and lovely just as you are!
Just found this masterpiece, and currently my fav song because I truly feel you... the song, the video, the lirycs... so refreshing. Self love is the best love bebé. I'm my own wife. I have the rings and everything hahaha
I just found this via the YT algorhythm and have been listening to it every day for like a month now. Absolutely adore this playfully feisty gem of a song.
Saw her sing this last night at Live At Leeds. It was sublime, and she's such a classy, charismatic presence on stage. I really hope she gets the success she deserves
Olivia you are an old soul. You just get it at a very early age. I saw you on CBS Sat. Mornings and had to get all your albums. Your music is perfect for long road trips, cocktail parties and cleaning house. I will see you in concert one day. Thank you for sharing your talent. ❤🤗
Theres shade of the old 70's solo artists to this, I love it, anything with an choir or an orchestra and I'm sold, beautiful harmaomius smooth voice, she sings it so effortlessly.
The most important relationship in the entire world you can have, is your relationship with yourself, (and I am personally Christian so and God for me). so sooooo on point nailed it in this song love it and it highlighted everything I love the most about being single sometimes I feel i wouldn't trade my freedom and my complete ability to live fully in the moment for the world ❤️
this song has supported me so much through the journey back to myself. so crazy when youre finally in a place where you’re totally happy and fulfilled in your own energy. comfort in solitude is so empowering and nourishing
I'm older, and this song has me all crazy and in love with myself. It almost makes me want to cry, laugh, scream, and run down the street like I have been delivered into a new religion. The way she says she looks so damn good and she gives herself her own compliments. And ohhhh, the instrumental section. This song is the epitome of what every woman needs to experience, especially as a healing e exercise, and I say it with my chest.....lo😮l I love her for this song. I feel sooooo good and liberated
Great artist, great song I love you. I am single now for 27 years and I am still my best own girlfriend. I know that without self love you never can love another.❤
i just found this song on snapchat and i needed this so much, this song is amazing. i really think this was a sign for me, because i just asked for one and i feel a lot better. thank you, Olivia 💗💜
*L y r i c s* ~ ~ Oh, I can't do this anymore I don't wanna get involved, no With all these men I'm so much better than Maybe it's a little cold But I think I could play the role 'cause No one can love me the way I can Catch me out in Paris on my ones Stay up dancing 'til the dance is done I got me, I don't need anyone Hold me close Love myself, the most Lately, I've been just what I need Stole my heart and I'm gonna be my own boyfriend Be my own boyfriend Lately, I've been just what I need Be my baby, yeah Gonna be my own boyfriend Oh, I could save myself the stress Wear the trousers and the dress, Yeah Girl, you look so goddamn good tonight And I say that with my chest You and me could be the best I can do whatever, whenever the fuck I want Hold me close Love myself, the most Lately, I've been just what I need Stole my heart and I'm gonna be my own boyfriend Be my own boyfriend Lately, I've been just what I need Be my baby, yeah Gonna be my own boyfriend Be my own boyfriend Be my own boyfriend Be my own boyfriend Ha-ah, ha-ah Ha-ha-ha, ah, ah-ah I'm gonna be my own boyfriend Be my own boyfriend (be my own boyfriend) Lately, I've been just what I need Be my baby, yeah Gonna be my own boyfriend
Very good reminds me of the sole I used to listen to in school in the 90ts happy days even if I didn't know it then they where the best days .. no worries
I spent over four years being single after having years of back to back codependent and toxic relationships. I spent so much time on my own and got to know myself better. And the more you spend time & effort to know someone, the easier it is to love that person. I'm still getting there, but I'm the happiest I've ever been in my life. This song is like a cute accessory to my journey to being the love of my life, it brings so much joy and main character energy whenever I listen to it. Thanks Olivia : )
When I listened at the first time this song, I felt in love with it! I was waiting for it long time! I was so excited to listen again! Thank you! I love it ❤️❤️❤️
Stumbled across Olivia Dean doing a secret set in a little bar in Glasto this year..and found her to be amazing! Hadn't heard of her before but now a big fan..what a talent ❤

This song randomly popped up as an ad on my TH-cam and I'm hooked.
What ad ?
Saw her sing this last night at Live At Leeds. It was sublime, and she's such a classy, charismatic presence on stage. I really hope she gets the success she deserves
Honestly, everything she does feels so fresh and new, it reminds me of when Amy Winehouse came to change the music, all the love!
This is entirely my national anthem for my own inner space. Grateful for this song✨🎶💕
I love it, strength, and power in knowing your own self-worth.
One of my favourite songs, I love it so much, great message, beautiful vocals, definitely counts as my pick me up song ❤.

What a powerful message, me and my self-esteem feel amplified listening to this song on repeat. It’s unbelievable how talented she is.
Theres shade of the old 70's solo artists to this, I love it, anything with an choir or an orchestra and I'm sold, beautiful harmaomius smooth voice, she sings it so effortlessly.
This reminds me of "hardest part". The grown-up woman vibe. Idk, I love it. That was just I needed to hear kkkkk thank you, Olivia❤️

*L y r i c s* ~ ~ Oh, I can't do this anymore
I don't wanna get involved, no
With all these men I'm so much better than
Maybe it's a little cold
But I think I could play the role 'cause
No one can love me the way I can
Catch me out in Paris on my ones
Stay up dancing 'til the dance is done
I got me, I don't need anyone
Hold me close
Love myself, the most
Lately, I've been just what I need
Stole my heart and I'm gonna be my own boyfriend
Be my own boyfriend
Lately, I've been just what I need
Be my baby, yeah
Gonna be my own boyfriend
Oh, I could save myself the stress
Wear the trousers and the dress, Yeah
Girl, you look so goddamn good tonight
And I say that with my chest
You and me could be the best
I can do whatever, whenever the fuck I want
Hold me close
Love myself, the most
Lately, I've been just what I need
Stole my heart and I'm gonna be my own boyfriend
Be my own boyfriend
Lately, I've been just what I need
Be my baby, yeah
Gonna be my own boyfriend
Be my own boyfriend
Be my own boyfriend
Be my own boyfriend
Ha-ah, ha-ah
Ha-ha-ha, ah, ah-ah
I'm gonna be my own boyfriend
Be my own boyfriend (be my own boyfriend)
Lately, I've been just what I need
Be my baby, yeah
Gonna be my own boyfriend
Very good reminds me of the sole I used to listen to in school in the 90ts happy days even if I didn't know it then they where the best days .. no worries
