LYRICS
Were you named for the river that surrounds
all my biggest mistakes?
Or the way that I made it out?
All the muscles in my mouth
never smiled or said profound things
Until the day she handed you to me.
For all the steps you'll take
and all you'll overcome
I wanna be the one to put it in a song.
Take every single tear
for all the world to hear.
I wanna be the one to put it in a song.
Cigarettes are raining hard
on the upper east side.
She brings me a cake,
we celebrate
I have arrived.
And I know that it's been sang before,
but you're my human holiday.
I put my hands to the table and dare say...
"the love of my life?"
And your brother with his best friend
share the name of an inebriate
that couldn't bring me down!
For everything you've lost,
and all you've overcome
I wanna be the one to put it in a song.
Take every single tear
for all the world to hear
I wanna be the one to put it in a song
and make it last forever.
Clever comes from truth.
When truth begets the past
it sends a call up to the moon
and the moon can see the beauty that surrounds
Your heart as it pounds.
It starts the beat
Inspiring me
Until I make a sound.

Aim and Ignite: "I wanna be the one"
Some Nights: "Why am I the one?"
Because you asked to be, silly Nate.
I wanna see a Fun. musical where in the first act someone sings Why Am I The One? to themselves and in the second act sings I Wanna Be The One? to themselves. Self love growth.
first he makes"I wanna be the one" then a few years later he questions why in"why am I the one"
Savanna Obregon lol
Savanna Obregon what a cycle
Don't know if this one is another, but Bar Lights and Harsh Light?
I know right
And in Stars he says "Some nights I'm surrounded by barlights and pretty girls."
I love Fun. so much it hurts.
Being a fan from the beginning is not a way to say you own them. It is a way of saying you were lucky enough to know them.
👏🏿 Sarah H - They should teach this in school!
I’m so happy I was a fan of this band when they were still active. I missed the train on tally hall, but I had Fun.
"all my biggest mistakes are the ways that i made it out" my favorite quote to describe my life
I read that as he sang it.

If there is ever that one person that comes back to old songs like this one, i hope you have a good day..
I used to really not like this song that much, skipping it every time it came up in a playlist, but now I can't stop listening to it!
True!
Lol
I love the instruments used in this song...the oboe, the viola, the harpsichord...it’s so beautiful.
Samee
Can't forget Andrew's flugelhorn!
2008- I Wanna Be The One
2012- Why Am I The One?
2016- Remember When I Was The One
Imagine if he did do this though, lol.
Extremely underrated band and song. This whole album is solid!
The vibes produced from Some Nights and Aim and Ignite is shocking. This album is so raw and emotional that you feel like Nate is singing directly to you. Some Nights feels like he was forced to use all this "popular" stuff that you don't quite feel the picture he paints in every song like with Aim and Ignite.
How can you tire of any of the songs from these geniuses? Honestly. Their music is just pure joy.
Nate Ruess is one of the most talented and brilliant musicians of all time.
2009: I wanna be the one
2012: Why am I the one
2020: i am the one
M llllllll l

How did I only hear this song now? This is really good!
I really miss Fun :c
Absolutely LOVE that high note on "make a sound". So amazing! That is why I love this band! Such unique music and amazing vocals. Their songs put me in the best of moods, no matter how I was feeling before. Just an incredibly all-over talented band. So glad I was lucky enough to discover these guys :) If I never found this band I would totally be missing out.
I wanna be the one.. Why i am the one... XD whatever, get still love this guys
I THOUGHT THE SAME THING XDD
Been listening since '09 so pleased they hit the big time I new they would one day!
I am completely obsessed with fun. I have no idea what I listened to before I discovered fun.
I'm obsessed with the trumpet in the song
Fun. is such an amazing band! This is great song. I like how it starts out somewhat simple, then transitions into a bouncy, upbeat tune.
Nate Ruess has a beautiful voice and this song is wonderful, so in my opinion they can use whatever words they want.
This is still this best album. From 2009 to 2012, these guys are still great.
This song's about his neice/nephew you guyssss. No correlation to "Why I am the one" sillies
I had a feeling this was a song about a child
the best fun. album
by far
Yeah, Some nights was so autotuned...
Willis L. If you listen to the acoustic version it isnt
ever
YESSS
It makes me so happy that they're gaining popularity! I've been listening for years and have been shoving their music in people's faces since the start, haha it's just too good.
fun. and The Boy Least Like To just make me so happy.
This song is cuteee ♥
This is such a beautiful song... I can't stop replaying!
This band is the most awesome thing I have heard in a long time!!! I swear this debut album is the best. I love every single song on there :) So glad this band came along!!!!!
I saw them Wednesday night. Loved every minute of it. Great band.
all of their songs are so amazing LITERALLY ALL. OF. THEM.
im glad ive been here since the format
I love this song! It is so happy and uplifting. These songs just make me smile!
Love how this is really quite jazzy!
I absolutely LOVE this song so much! It's so catchy and upbeat!
there is a lot of arguing about people liking this band for just "we are young". but im not one of those people, yes i started listening to them when we are young came out, but ive listened to almost all their songs now and my favorite is we are young, some nights, carry on, and be clam.
Love this song. FUN forever
This song was stuck in my head literally ALL DAY and I kept singing the beginning part of "ba ba ba ba ba" 's. Such a catchy and fun song to sing to! I so wanna see them again. :D
it's like a modern oldie, I'm feelin this song
LOVE this song!!!!!!!!!!
I love this comment! Thank you! Sometimes people act as if they OWN a band just because they've listened to them for the longest. And even if they did, it's okay to share.
Now Nate's got a song out called "Why am I the one" ;P
+DriedOrange what do you mean now? it was out four years ago.
@@johnperic6860 the way he said it implies it just came out at the time
@@johnperic6860 and it's a little late to jump in here lol
Love this song, so catchy!
saw them in concert 2 years ago. they were the opening act for paramore. a good one too!
This Song So good
I just barely found out about this band and I fell in love with them the first song I heard!
I love that this album was release on my birthday :)
I first head this band last weekend. My friend DJs for his college's radio station and they play the song The Gambler quite a bit on there. I like it a lot.
i love this song!😁
AMAZING
FANTASTIC, THE NEW QUEEN
Fun. are amazing, always a fan! Keep it up!!
such a good band live!
this song is one of my fav fun songs xx
was listening to this and at the same time i opened up google to search for something,and the little irish dancers on the google logo were dancing to the music..kept me amused for so long.
I can't stop listening to them! :O
By far, my favorite song by the band " fun"
i love this song
Wow....great beats!!
AAAAAH this is the cutest song ever
aw, this song made my day :')
this song is so delightful ^_^
Ditto. Dog Problems and Interventions and Lullabies are fantastic. Yesssss for fun.!
lol are you kidding me? The format was good yes but Fun. is truly amazing they are modern pioneers in musical art! Its so much more free and well FUN!
Checking in from 2020. This song is still a jam
I know that it's been sang before but you're my human holiday
I put my hands on the table and dare say: the love of my life.
That's a nice way of looking at it.
I just saw them in Norfolk. I love fun. They are unlike anyone else!
Think on the bright side, now you have heard the greatest music of our generation.
OMG I've, like, totally been listening to them since before they got together. No, since I was like, born! NO WAIT, SINCE BEFORE THE BIG BANG.
I HAVE BEEN LISTENING FOR 1 WEEK AND PROUD. AND WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO HIPSTERS?? LOL
I remember when this video only had 1,000 views.. I feel like a proud parent :')
It doesn't matter how long that you've listened to them, be it when they were The Format or Fun, as long as you enjoy their music, no one cares.
HOW COME NO ONE PLAYS THEM ON THE RADIO??!?!!? they are the best!!! :)
I think you answered your own question. This band is so painfully annoying.
ahhh beautifulness -_-
dang i miss them so much.
some nights is still a great cd. people just need to man up and realize bands change, evolve, grow. i've been a fan since the format and that'll never change, no matter how bad a cd is.
This is my favorite Fun. song
I luv this song 3
Who cares if we haven't been fans since 2009? Some of us were ten then. Please, chill. We're all here for the music, who cares when we became fans?
Their lyrics are so original!
sick of people suggesting fun. were the format. they weren't. the lead singer was IN the format, but the format split up. this is a completely different beast.
thank you andrew bravener for showing me this awesomeness. it so great because they remind me of NO ONE. ORIGINAL.
This has been my favorite song since 2009 :D
I like mostly all their songs but Be Calm is my fav.
I've been listening to them for only a month and going to their tour, just supporting them, if you've loved them for years or a couple of days, i might see you there:D
Ah, the theme of loving and hoping for a broken person. Here’s hoping we’re all the ones, my friends…
i have been listening to fun since they were The Format.
Such a boss
I love fun songs
fun saved my first years in college 2012-17 ❤
Best fun. song.
I love Fun. a BUNCH, but this would have to be one of my favorites, along with "The Gambler", "All the Pretty Girls", and "Carry On". :)
I like their Sleigh ride version, some nights (intro and main version), we are young, please believe in me, and them and PATD with Cmon
woh. i listen to the format, and my friend told me to check out fun. that was sweet
i saw them last night!!:D
:) this song makes me smile :)
i loved fun. since they were the format! or since the singer was in the format!
I feel like listening to fun. is like that amazing secret that hardly anyone knows.
I personally have been a fan since the beginning but who cares if some of the fans are newer, i don't care as long as they appreciate the music.
