2017 MTV EMA: Rita Ora Slays EMA Medley in Style
What a performance...
Sunday, November 12, 2017 - 21:11
There's no denying that Rita is easily one of the UK's most talented artists. From 'Hot Right Now' to 'I Will Never Let You Down' she is a leading figure in UK pop with the hits to match. So it's no surprise that Rita is hosting this year's MTV EMAs.
And she just kicked off the show with an amazing medley of 'Your Song' and 'Anywhere'.
Time flies by when the night is young
Daylight shines on an undisclosed location, location
Bloodshot eyes lookin' for the sun
Paradise delivered and we call it a vacation, vacation
You're painting me a dream that I
Wanna belong in, wanna belong in
Over the hills and far away
A million miles from L.A.
Just anywhere away with you
I know we've got to get away
Some place where no one knows our name
We'll find the start of something new
Just take me anywhere, take me anywhere
Anywhere away with you
Just take me anywhere, take me anywhere
Anywhere away with you
Fun, little less, fun
Little less
Over-over-over-over
Me, me-me-me, me
Me-me-me, me-me-me-me
Oh
Fun, little less, fun
Little less
Over-over-over-over
Me, me-me-me, me
Me-me-me, me-me-me-me
Truth comes out when we're blacking out
Looking for connection in a crowd of empty faces, empty faces
Your secrets are the only thing I'm craving now
The good and the bad, let me in
‘Cause I can take it, I can take it
You're painting me a dream that I
Wanna belong in, wanna belong in
Over the hills and far away
A million miles from L.A.
Just anywhere away with you
I know we've got to get away
Someplace where no one knows our name
We'll find the start of something new
Just take me anywhere, take me anywhere
Anywhere away with you
Fun, little less, fun
Little less
Over-over-over-over
Me, me-me-me, me
Me-me-me, me-me-me-me
Oh
Fun, little less, fun
Little less
Over-over-over-over
Me, me-me-me, me
Me-me-me, me-me-me-me
Take me anywhere
Oh, anywhere
Anywhere away with you, ooh, ooh
Take me anywhere
Over the hills and far away
A million miles from L.A.
Just anywhere away with you
I know we've got to get away
Someplace where no one knows our name
We'll find the start of something new
Just take me anywhere
Take me anywhere
Anywhere away with you
Just take me anywhere
Take me anywhere
Anywhere away with you
Fun, little less, fun
Little less
Over-over-over-over
Anywhere away with you
Oh
Daylight shines on an undisclosed location, location
Bloodshot eyes lookin' for the sun
Paradise delivered and we call it a vacation, vacation
You're painting me a dream that I
Wanna belong in, wanna belong in
Over the hills and far away
A million miles from L.A.
Just anywhere away with you
I know we've got to get away
Some place where no one knows our name
We'll find the start of something new
Just take me anywhere, take me anywhere
Anywhere away with you
Just take me anywhere, take me anywhere
Anywhere away with you
Fun, little less, fun
Little less
Over-over-over-over
Me, me-me-me, me
Me-me-me, me-me-me-me
Oh
Fun, little less, fun
Little less
Over-over-over-over
Me, me-me-me, me
Me-me-me, me-me-me-me
Truth comes out when we're blacking out

‘Cause I can take it, I can take it
You're painting me a dream that I

Over-over-over-over

Ever the incredible singer, Rita's vocals were front and centre during the performance. Her silky smooth tone reminding the EMA audience exactly what a star is and should be. Seriously we need to rewind that and watch it all again and again.
She also showed off her best dance moves in a stunning all black number.
As with all things Rita Ora, we loved every single second of the spectacle.
'Your Song' is the lead single from Rita's as yet untitled second studio album and it's one of her biggest hits to date. Not only was the song the best selling single by a female artist in the UK this summer but it was also certified Platinum here.
Meanwhile, 'Anywhere' is rising the charts every week and just went Top 5 in the UK.
After that performance, we have no doubt that it could become Rita's fifth Number 1.
We can't wait to see what else Rita has up her sleeves for us tonight.
We're pretty certain that she will keep us entertained all night long.
