"Give Me Everything" is a song by American rapper Pitbull featuring Dutch DJ Afrojack and American singers Ne-Yo and Nayer. Written by the former three and produced by Afrojack, it was released on March 18, 2011, through Polo Grounds Music, Mr. 305 Entertainment, and J Records as the second single from Pitbull's sixth studio album, Planet Pit (2011). Rolling Stone described the song as a "club-pop cut with a plaintive Ne-Yo chorus".[3]
In the United States, "Give Me Everything" became the first number-one single on the US Billboard Hot 100 for every artist on the record except Ne-Yo, who had previously reached number-one with his own "So Sick" in 2006. It also became Pitbull's first number one in the United Kingdom as the main artist. The song has also peaked at number one in 21 countries such as Belgium, Canada, Ireland, the Netherlands, Romania and within the top-five in twelve other territories . It was the seventh best-selling digital single of 2011 with worldwide sales of 8.2 million copies, making it one of the best-selling singles of all time.[4]
Background and composition
Following "Hey Baby (Drop It to the Floor)", "Give Me Everything" is the second single from Pitbull's sixth studio album, Planet Pit, released on June 21, 2011.[5][6] The song was released on March 18, 2011, through J Records.[7] It was written by Pitbull, Ne-Yo and Afrojack (also producer), the latter two of whom are featured on the song along with Nayer.[8]
According to the sheet music published at musicnotes.com, "Give Me Everything" is written in the key of E♭ major,[12] set in common time and has a tempo of 129 beats per minute. The vocals range from the low note of C3 to the high note of B♭4.
In Daymond John’s book Powershift, Pitbull says that he wrote the song after an encounter with a Princess from Dubai at a club. When the security at the club wanted to chase the Princess away from Pitbull after giving her his number; he was inspired by the events to write that song. John backed this point up even further citing the lyrics "Take advantage of tonight, 'cause I'm off to Dubai to perform for a princess" and Pitbull's own generosity with his fans as the reason he created the song.[13]
Critical reception
"Give Me Everything" has received mixed reviews from music critics. A review from NME magazine criticized Pitbull and the song for having too many random components. The review said "So, how many types of wrong is this? Well, you’ve got your earnest vocal gibbering about living in the moment. You’ve got your cheap rave wibble, a high frequency irritation that buzzes throughout like a fly trapped in jism."[14]

The song debuted at number 60 on the US Billboard Hot 100, on the week of April 16, 2011.[15] In its second week, it climbed to number 17 with 112,000 copies sold: a 259% increase as a result of prominent advertising in the iTunes Store.[16] On the week of June 26, 2011, the song peaked at number one on the chart after having spent four weeks at number two.

Method for dating geological samples Lead–lead dating is a method for dating geological samples, normally based on 'whole-rock' samples of material such as granite. For most dating requirements it has been superseded by uranium–lead dating (U–Pb dating), but in certain specialized situations (such as dating meteorites and the age of the Earth) it is more important than U–Pb dating. Decay equations for common Pb–Pb dating There are three stable daughter Pb isotopes that result from t...
Study of changes in physiological characteristics Natural and sexual selection are often presumed to act most directly on behavior (e.g., what an animal chooses to do when confronted by a predator), which is expressed within limits set by whole-organism performance abilities (e.g., how fast it can run) that are determined by subordinate traits (e.g., muscle fiber-type composition). A weakness of this conceptual and operational model is the absence of an explicit recognition of the place of li...
