It was released on August 7, 2009 as the lead single from Kesha's debut studio album,Animal. The opening line of the song came from an experience where Kesha woke up surrounded by beautiful women, to which she imagined Diddy being in a similar scenario.

It achieved commercial success by topping the charts in eleven countries. In the United States the song broke the record for the biggest single-week sum of all time for a female artist selling 610,000 digital downloads in one week. "Tik Tok" was certified 5× platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for sales of five million copies and has sold over 5,633,000 copies in the United States.

Kesha has performed the song on Saturday Night Live, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the MTV Europe Music Awards, among others.

Writing and inspiration


American rapper Sean Combs (Diddy) is featured on two lines on the track. Kesha has called Combs an inspiration for writing the song.
"Tik Tok" was co-written by Kesha, Dr. Luke and Benny Blanco and was co-produced by Luke and Blanco.[1] Kesha said the inspiration behind the song came from coming home half-drunk and stumbling after a night out of partying. She would then write down a few words to a song, then the following morning she would wake up with the story waiting to be told. The opening line came from an experience where she woke up surrounded by "beautiful women", leading to her imagining Diddy being in a similar scenario.[2] She then proceeded to bring the song to her producer, Dr. Luke, and the song was written. Four hours later Diddy called Luke saying that they should do a song together; Later in the day Diddy came to the studio to contribute his lines and the collaboration was completed.[3]
Engineering of the song took place at Conway Recording Studios, Los Angeles, California by Emily Wright and Sam Holland.[1] While Kesha was in the studio with Dr. Luke and Benny Blanco she took three takes to get the song correct as she jokingly "white-girl rapped" over the beat.[4] At one point in the song's production, she had wanted to rewrite the verses of the song because she did not think that they were "funny or clever", feeling that it "kind of sucked."[5] She elaborated, "I thought it was just another song, I thought it was just like all the other ones I'd written. I didn't even know if it was very good. I wanted to rewrite the verses, I didn't think it was funny or clever. I thought it kind of sucked. But everyone else liked it."[5]Kesha ultimately did not end up rewriting any of the song's lyrics. She further described the theme of the song in an interview, emphasizing that it embodied her own lifestyle,
We're [Kesha and her friends] all young and broke and it doesn't matter. We can find clothes on the side of the street and go out and look fantastic, and kill it. If we don't have a car that doesn't stop us, because we'll take the bus. If we can't afford drinks, we'll bring a bottle in our purse. It's just about not letting anything bring you down.[6]

"Tik Tok" is an upbeat dance-pop song that incorporates elements of electropop in its production and beats.[7][8] It utilizes a minimalist "video-game beat"[9] interspersed with handclaps[7] and synths.[10] Opening the song saying, "Wake up in the morning feeling like P. Diddy", Kesha uses a spoken word rap style on the verses while the chorus is sung.[11][4] Throughout the song Kesha's vocals are enhanced by Auto-Tune in some places. The song also features two lines by Diddy ("Hey, what up girl?" and "Let's Go").[4][3] The song's hook features a "stabbing synthesizer" beat with the chorus performed in a sung-rap style.[12] Lyrically, the song speaks about "excess pleasures, from drinking ('Ain't got a care in the world but I got plenty of beer') to men ('We kick 'em to the curb unless they look like Mick Jagger')."[7] According to Kesha the lyrics are representative of herself, stating "it's about my life, it's 100 per cent me".[5]
According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com by Kobalt Music Publishing, the song is set in common time with a moderate beat rate of 120 beats per minute. The song is written in the key of D minor.[11] It has the sequence of B♭–C–Dm as its chord progressionand Kesha's vocals in the song span from the note of D3 to the note of D5.[11] Musically, the song has been compared to Lady Gaga's debut single, "Just Dance", for their similar composition and lyrical context and to Fergie for their similar rap style.[4][13]

Critical reception


"Tik Tok" has commonly been compared to American singerLady Gaga's debut single, "Just Dance" for their similar subject matter.
"Tik Tok" generated mixed to generally positive reviews from music critics upon its release. Kelsey Paine ofBillboard called the song "a love letter to DJs everywhere, with hand claps that build to a crescendo of pure, infectious dance-pop."[7] Paine, referring to her appearance on "Right Round", wrote the she "offers her own fun and frivolous ode to a wild night out" as she sings about drinking and men. The review was concluded with the consensus the Kesha's debut "reveals a knack for getting the party started."[7] Jim Farber of the New York Daily News called the song "a vintage lick of dance candy too tooth-rottingly sweet to resist" that featured a "stabbing synthesizer hook".[12] Fraser McAlpine of the BBC, giving the single four out of a possible five stars, called it a "dirty little ditty" that had "'hit' written all over it".[13] McAlpine noted its similarities to Lady Gaga's "Just Dance" for their partying subject matter, but concedes that "she does make it sound kinda fun though."[13] Billy Johnson, Jr. of Yahoo! compared "Tik Tok" to the 1980s L'Trimmhit "Cars that Go Boom" and notes that Kesha has "take[n] on L'Trimm's vocal styling for her own hit."[14]Nick Levine of Digital Spy gave the song four out of five stars, he spoke of the song giving Kesha a "hussy image" but described the lyrics in a positive manner.[8] Levine said the use of auto-tune was "fun" and described Dr. Luke's backing track as "bouncy" and "bubblegummy".[8] The review highlighted the song's chorus with Levine calling it "stonking great" and "completely trashy in the best possible way."[8]
Jonah Weiner of Slate Magazine gave the song a negative review saying that "the song sets up ship on the fault line between charmingly daft and deeply irritating." He then compared the song to work by other artists, stating that "the rapped verses are sub-Fergie-grade, proudly stuffed with groaners and to-hell-with-the-expiration-date slang." Weiner echoed the sentiment that the plotline seemed like "a sequel" to "Just Dance", summing it up as "girl wakes up drunk, stays drunk, finds a dance floor and (spoiler alert) gets even drunker."[15] Jon Caramanica of The New York Times described the song as "a zippy and salacious celebration of late nights and mornings-after." He noted that "some have compared Kesha, unfavorably, to Uffie, who is signed to the influential French electronic music label Ed Banger and whose sass-rap predated Kesha’s by a couple of years." However, he thought that "if anyone should feel fleeced by "Tik Tok", though, it’s Lady Gaga, who probably hears significant chunks of her hit "Just Dance" in its melody and subject matter."[4]
In 2010, "Tik Tok" was nominated for multiple awards. It was nominated for "Best Female Video" and "Best Pop Video" at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards; both awards were lost to Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance".[16][17] The song was nominated at the MuchMusic Video Awards for "International Video of the Year" and "UR FAVE: International Video". Both awards were lost — the first to Miley Cyrus's "Party in the U.S.A." and the second to Adam Lambert for "Whataya Want From Me".[18]

The music video for "Tik Tok" was directed by Syndrome.[50] It was shot in Kesha's old neighborhood and the car featured in the video belongs to her.[51] Kesha explained the experience saying, "the video I'm excited about because I actually got to shoot it in my old neighborhood and the guy driving my gold car is a friend of mine".[51] The video's party scene was shot in her friend's house, which they refer to as the "drunk tank".

The video comes to an end with Kesha lying in a different bathtub from the one she woke up in.[50]

Cultural impact

It's amazing ... I love it. ... Having Israeli soldiers dancing to 'Tik Tok' and landing the opening of 'The Simpsons' ... [they're] dreams. It's been a pretty good year.[63]
— Kesha commenting on The Simpsons and Israel Defense Forces soldiers parodies
The song was parodied by British comedy group The Midnight Beast.

S++t. [sic] This is better than my version."[64] Released to iTunes on January 15, 2010,[65] the song peaked at number four on the Australian Singles Chart, and at thirty-nine on the Irish Singles Chart.[66][67] "Tik Tok" was used in the opening sequence for The Simpsons episode "To Surveil with Love", in which the entire cast lip-synced to the song.[63][68]
A second parody came about when Israel Defense Forces soldiers created IDF Tik Tok in 2010, a viral dance video that opens with six infantry soldiers on patrol in Hebron, walking cautiously down a deserted street, armed and wearing full combat gear,[69][70][71][72] when "Tik Tok" begins to play, and the soldiers break into choreographed dance moves.[73][74][75][76][77][78] The cast of FOX musical series Gleeperformed this song on the episode "Blame It on the Alcohol", with Heather Morris' character, Brittany Pierce, taking the lead.[79] Avril Lavigne preformed an acoustic version of the song in her setlist for BBC's Radio 1.[80]

Ke$ha - Tik Tok Lyrics


Tik Tok Lyrics

Wake up in the morning feeling like P Diddy
(Hey, what up girl?)
Grab my glasses, I'm out the door, I'm gonna hit this city
(Lets go)
Before I leave, brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack
'Cause when I leave for the night, I ain't coming back

I'm talking pedicure on our toes, toes
Trying on all our clothes, clothes
Boys blowing up our phones, phones
Drop-topping, playing our favorite CDs
Pulling up to the parties
Trying to get a little bit tipsy

Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no

Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock, on the clock
But the party don't stop, no

Ain't got a care in world, but got plenty of beer
Ain't got no money in my pocket, but I'm already here
And now, the dudes are lining up cause they hear we got swagger
But we kick em to the curb unless they look like Mick Jagger

I'm talking about everybody getting crunk, crunk
Boys tryin' to touch my junk, junk
Gonna smack him if he getting too drunk, drunk

Now, now, we go until they kick us out, out
Or the police shut us down, down
Police shut us down, down
Po-po shut us

Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no

Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no

DJ, you build me up
You break me down
My heart, it pounds
Yeah, you got me
http://www.elyricsworld.com/tik_tok_lyrics_ke$ha.html

With my hands up
You got me now
You got that sound
Yeah, you got me

DJ, you build me up
You break me down
My heart, it pounds
Yeah, you got me

With my hands up
Put your hands up
Put your hands up

Now, the party don't start 'til I walk in

Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no

Don't stop, make it pop
DJ, blow my speakers up
Tonight, I'mma fight
'Til we see the sunlight
Tick tock on the clock
But the party don't stop, no
