— «When I Was Your Man — Bruno Mars (Lyrics)»
The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Musics Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. Its the same spirit — stripped-down sets, an intimate setting — just a different space.
Dec. 4, 2020 | Abby ONeill — With a genuine smile stretched across her face, Dua Lipa seems overjoyed to reconnect with her band for their only performance since their tour in support of her sophomore album, Future Nostalgia, was cancelled in March. Glowing from the inside out and accentuated by the apricot hues of a backdrop in a London studio, Dua and her backup vocalists and band bring life and warmth into households in need of «levitating» and some pep in their step this winter. This vibrant four song set of dance hits, all from Future Nostalgia, will surely have you cutting up the floor in your kitchen while quarantining in the cold weather.
While we cant film our Tiny Desk concerts at NPRs D.C. office during the pandemic, our «home» series has created opportunity for global megastars like Dua Lipa to bring her uptempo dance joints all the way from London. Of Kosovar Albanian descent, Dua Lipa was raised in the UK and rose to super stardom in the three years since her eponymous debut album dropped in 2017. NPR Music featured her in our docu-series Noteworthy at the onset of her career. Its been extraordinary to witness her colossal takeover of the pop music landscape. Dua sums the times during her intro of «Love Again»: «Its about manifesting good things into your life, when things arent quite going your way.»

Your love isnt fair
You live in a world where you didnt listen
And you didnt care
So Im floating
Floating on air
Oh… yeah…
No warning of such a sad song
Of broken hearts
My dreams of fairy tales and fantasy, oh
Were torn apart
I lost my peace of mind
Somewhere along the way
I knew theres come a time
Youd hear me say
Im sick and tired
Of always being sick and tired
And another one bites the dust
Oh why can I not conquer love?
And I might have thought that we were one
Wanted to fight this war without weapons
Well, Ive got thick skin and an elastic heart,
But your blade — it mightbe too sharp
Im like a rubber band until you pull too hard,
Yeah, I may snap and I move fast
But you wont see me fall apart
Cause Ive got an elastic heart
Ive got an elastic heart
Yeah, Ive got an elastic heart

Half past twelve
and I’m watchin’ the late show
in my flat all alone
how I hate to spend
the evening on my own
autumn winds
blowin’ outside the window
as I look around the room
and it makes me so
depressed to see the gloom
there’s not a soul out there
no one to hear my prayer
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
won’t somebody help me
chase the shadows away
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
take me through the darkness
to the break of the day
Movie stars
find the end of the rainbow
with a fortune to win
it’s so different from
the world I’m living in
tired of TV
I open the window
and I gaze into the night
but there’s nothing there to see
no one in sight
there’s not a soul out there
no one to hear my prayer
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
won’t somebody help me
chase the shadows away
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
take me through the darkness
to the break of the day
