What have the artists said about the song?

We wrote “My Type” with our friends Emily Warren and Britt Burton. Drew found himself saying in the session “I hate to say it but you’re just my type” as we listened to the piano riff on loop. This led us to writing a song around the idea that we can’t help who we fall for. Sometimes we cannot choose who we are attracted to, even if they are bad for us. We have been there many times in our lives and Emily does a beautiful job singing from this perspective about an attraction that is poisonous but addicting.

The Chainsmokers 他們自己怎麼說這首歌...?

我們和我們的朋友 Emily Warren 和 Britt Burton 一起寫了這首歌。Drew 是在我們反覆聆聽一段鋼琴段落的時候發現自己無意中說出了“I hate to say it but you’re just my type”（我不想承認 但你的確是我喜歡的類型）這句話的。這讓我們以這個想法寫了一首歌，關於我們不能控制自己喜歡上誰。有時我們並沒辦法控制自己被某人所吸引，就算我們知道喜歡上他們這件事對自己來說並不是件好事。我們經歷過好幾次這樣的是，而 Emily 完美地以這樣的視角唱出了這種就像有毒但卻令人無法自拔的糾結情感。

The Chainsmokers - My Type (Audio) ft. Emily Warren

---------------------------------------------------------------------

[Verse 1]

You don't gotta say it, I know you ain't stayin' over

你不需說出口 我已知道你不會留下來

And I won't even mention the fact that you're never sober

而我根本不會提起你永遠不會清醒這個事實

I never know which side I'm gonna get tonight

我永遠不知道今晚我會得到什麼

And the closer we get, the less I think I know you

我們彼此越靠近 我就更搞不懂你

[Chorus]

But you're just my type

但你就是我喜歡的類型

The kind that only calls me late at night

那種只在深夜打給我的人

You can't decide if you'll be yours or mine

你不能決定你到底要不要當我的人

I hate to say it, but you're just my type

我不想承認 但你的確是我喜歡的類型

Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah

沒錯 你就是我的菜

[Hook/Drop]

Just my type

我喜歡的類型

Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah

沒錯 你就是我的菜

Just my type

我喜歡的那種人

Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]

And I'm foolin' myself, 'cause I know that I'll never change ya

我只是在愚弄自己罷了 因為我知道我永遠不能改變你

But you told me the truth, so I guess I can't really blame ya

但你早就告訴過我這個事實 所以我也不能真的怪你

No, you're not the one, but you're all I want, yeah

是啊 你的確不是那個“對的人”  但你卻是我唯一想要的

People say I'll get hurt, I don't know what they're so afraid of

大家都說我會因你而傷 但我真的不懂他們在怕什麼

[Chorus]

But you're just my type

但你就是我喜歡的類型

The kind that only calls me late at night
