The same thing was done in the German and Spanish versions of the video, translating the lyrics, although the vocals remained in English. Initially, a lyric video for "Fuck You" was released to YouTube on August 19, 2010, featuring kinetic typography, with the lyrics of the song appearing on different colored backgrounds with film grain overlaid on the video. A new version of the video was released with scenes of Cee Lo visiting a fire station. The lyrics mention that Cee Lo's mother was a firefighter. The song was re-written with new lyrics as a tribute to firefighters. A fifth version of the song, entitled "Thank You", was released on May 9, 2011. The first full verse of the song was a satirical parody of Fox News controversies. The remix was entitled "Fuck You ( Fox News)". CeeLo performed a remix of the song, featuring an all-female backing band named " Scarlet Fever", on The Colbert Report on November 9, 2010. The video for this version of the song incorporates scenes from the original video with extra shots of 50 Cent performing. The version was entitled "Fuck You (Heartbreaker)!", and was released only in America. Ī fourth version of the song, featuring American rapper 50 Cent, was released to iTunes. All three versions can be found on iTunes and both "Fuck You" and "Forget You" are included in an extended play, which features the music video and lyric video, and was released on August 19, 2010, whereas "FU" was not released until September 21. All three versions differ in lyrical content, with "Fuck You" being completely uncensored, "Forget You" replacing the profanity with sound effects (also changing "fuck you" to "forget you" per the title), and "FU" replacing them by editing them out completely and leaving blank spaces, and changing "fuck you" to an exact pronunciation of "F you". The version of the song edited to remove swearing, which is broadcast in the music video on UK television stations, and played on US radio, is called "Forget You", while the UK radio edit is entitled "FU". Several versions of "Fuck You" have been released. In an interview with NME, Green said that, in addition to being about a heartbreak, the song was also about the music industry itself. "Fuck You" received acclaim from music critics, and was an international commercial success, making the top-10 in thirteen countries, including topping charts in the United Kingdom, and number two on the Billboard Hot 100. It was released on August 19, 2010, as the first single from Green's third solo studio album, The Lady Killer (2010). It was written as a collaboration among Green, Bruno Mars, his production team the Smeezingtons, and Brody Brown. " Fuck You" (stylized as " Fuck You!" or " F**k You!"), known as " Forget You" or " FU" for the clean versions, is a song by American recording artist CeeLo Green. ![]()
