加拿大新星 Tate McRae (泰特·麥可蕾) 的單曲〈r u ok〉收錄於她的第二張 EP《Too Young to Be Sad》。這首歌展現了 Tate 標誌性的「悲傷女孩」風格與充滿節奏感的流行製作之間的強烈對比。歌曲講述了一段關係結束後，當主角已經向前看，前任卻突然試圖重新進入她的生活，表現得好像一切如常。Tate 形容這首歌帶有一種她鮮少展現的「時髦與潑辣」(sassy and feisty) 基調，歌詞充滿了對前任荒謬行為的諷刺與質問。MV 中，Tate 在色彩繽紛卻帶有迷幻感的場景中演繹這種矛盾的情緒，完美捕捉了面對不想糾纏的舊愛時，那種既無奈又堅定的心境。
Tate McRae - r u ok 中英文對照翻譯歌詞(Lyrics)
[Chorus]
Are you okay?
你還好嗎？
'Cause you're the one who needed space
因為當初可是你說需要空間的
And finally now I'm doing fine
結果現在我終於過得很好
You would rather see me cry-y-y
你卻寧願看著我哭泣
Are you okay?
你還好嗎？
You're acting like we never changed
你表現得好像我們之間從未變過
And finally I can sleep at night
好不容易我晚上能安穩入睡了
Makes you wanna lose your mind
這讓你覺得快要瘋了吧
[Verse 1]
I know that you've been scared of love
我知道你一直很害怕去愛
And everything it did to us
以及愛對我們造成的種種影響
But how am I supposed to open up
但我要怎麼敞開心房
When you were just so good at closing off?
當你總是那麼擅長封閉自己？
You're up and down, I'm inside out
你情緒起伏不定，我內心翻攪不已
You ripped my heart right from my mouth
你將我的心從口中狠狠扯出
And then I had to go and pick it up
然後我得自己去把它撿回來
And play it like I didn't give a fuck
還要假裝我根本一點都不在乎
[Pre-Chorus]
You called up my phone fifty times from that party
你在那場派對上狂打了五十通電話給我
3AM, you thought I'd be there in a heartbeat
凌晨三點，你以為我會心急如焚地趕過去
It's your life but you might wanna put down the Bacardi
這是你的人生，但你最好把那瓶百加得放下
Mean this sincerely, dude
說真的，老兄
[Chorus]
Are you okay?
你還好嗎？
'Cause you're the one who needed space
因為當初可是你說需要空間的
And finally now I'm doing fine
結果現在我終於過得很好
You would rather see me cry-y-y
你卻寧願看著我哭泣
Are you okay?
你還好嗎？
You're acting like we never changed
你表現得好像我們之間從未變過
And finally I can sleep at night
好不容易我晚上能安穩入睡了
Makes you wanna lose your mind
這讓你覺得快要瘋了吧
[Verse 2]
You called my friends, you called my dad
你打給我的朋友，甚至打給我爸
You begged for help to win me back
你乞求他們幫忙把你追回來
And they would never say it to your face
他們絕對不會當面告訴你
But no, they never liked you anyways
但其實，他們從來就沒喜歡過你
You missed my birthday and my shows
你錯過了我的生日和我的演出
You made me feel so damn alone
你曾讓我感到該死的孤單
And somehow now you got so much to say
不知怎的，現在你卻有這麼多話想說
Don't got time to listen anyway
反正我現在也沒時間聽了
[Pre-Chorus]
You called up my phone fifty times from that party
你在那場派對上狂打了五十通電話給我
3AM, you thought I'd be there in a heartbeat
凌晨三點，你以為我會心急如焚地趕過去
It's your life but you might wanna put down the Bacardi
這是你的人生，但你最好把那瓶百加得放下
Mean this sincerely, dude
說真的，老兄
[Chorus]
Are you okay?
你還好嗎？
'Cause you're the one who needed space
因為當初可是你說需要空間的
And finally now I'm doing fine
結果現在我終於過得很好
You would rather see me cry-y-y
你卻寧願看著我哭泣
Are you okay?
你還好嗎？
You're acting like we never changed
你表現得好像我們之間從未變過
And finally I can sleep at night
好不容易我晚上能安穩入睡了
Makes you wanna lose your mind
這讓你覺得快要瘋了吧

Are you okay?
你還好嗎？
Are you okay?
你還好嗎？
