Caracciolo(born July 11, 1996), known professionally as Alessia Cara (/əˈlɛsiəˈkɑːrə/), is a Canadian singer-songwriter. When she was only
13 years of age, she started posting covers of songs that she performs on the
online platform YouTube to showcase her ability and eventually gained a big
enough following.
After
uploading acoustic covers of songs such as "Love Yourself" and "Sweater Weather" online, she signed with EP Entertainment and Def Jam
Recordings in
2014 and released her debut single the following year. "Here"
peaked at number 19 on the Canadian Hot 100 chart and was a sleeper hit in the US, peaking at number 5 on
the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Cara's debut
studio album, Know-It-All(2015), peaked at number 8 on the Canadian
Albums Chart and
at number 9 on the Billboard 200. The album's third single, "Scars
to Your Beautiful",
peaked at number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2016. In 2017, Cara collaborated
with DJ and producer Zedd on the single "Stay",
which is certified seven-times platinum in Canada, and featured on rapper Logic's song "1-800-273-8255". Cara has received nominations for four Grammy Awards, winning the Best New Artist
in 2018. She was nominated for Song of the Year and Record of the Year at the 2019 Latin Grammys
for her collaboration with Juanes
on "Querer Mejor". Her second studio album, The
Pains of Growing(2018),
saw the moderate commercial success of the singles "Growing Pains"
and "Trust
My Lonely". The
album won Juno Award for Album of the Year and Juno Award for Pop Album of the Year while she went on to win Juno Award for Songwriter of the Year. Her third album, In the Meantime(2021), was met with generally positive reviews from
critics.
In the
Meantime is the third studio album by Canadian singer and songwriter Alessia Cara, released on September 24, 2021, by Def Jam
Recordings.
Cara collaborated with Jon Levine, Salaam Remi and Joel Little among several other producers on the
project.
Three songs
were released to promote the album: "Sweet Dream",
"Shapeshifter", and "Best Days", with "Sweet
Dream" charting at number 51 on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 chart while the latter two acted as promotional
singles. In the
Meantime follows Cara's EP This Summer(2019).
4:55, everybody else
is snoring
My heavy eyes, I can never seem to close 'em
My running mind, just can't catch it when it's going
Is it late at night or is it early in the morning?
Only
So many sheep a girl can count
Patchouli candles burning out
I try to meditate it all away but, damn it, it's too quiet now
Daylight helps distract my head
Monsters hide under my bed
They bother me with all kinds of things
Like, "Where do I go when I'm dead?"
Is it too much to ask
for a sweet dream?
Need a step back from my feelings
Life is not so bad when I'm sleeping
Is it too much to ask, too much to ask for a
Sweet dream
For a, sweet dream
6:58, sun's peaking
through the curtains
I drift away, suddenly the wheels are turning
Songs are in my head, scary thoughts begin to worsen
Once I'm wide awake, it's too hard to reverse it
Chirping, birds are flying 'round my house
Patchouli candles burning out
I try to meditate it all away but, damn it, it's too quiet now
Daylight helps distract my head
Monsters hide under my bed
They bother me with all kinds of things
Like that one stupid thing I said
Is it too much to ask
for a sweet dream?
Need a step back from my feelings
Life is not so bad when I'm sleeping
Is it too much to ask, too much to ask for a
Sweet dream
For a, sweet dream
For a, sweet dream
For a, sweet dream
Sandman, can you
visit me?
All I want is a sweet dream
8:31, I'm slurring
every word now
I pray this cold coffee helps me with the rebound
How does everybody I know know how to sleep sound?
When we're all a mess
I guess the only way out is a
Sweet dream (sweet
dream, sweet dream)
Is a, sweet dream (ah-ah)
Sweet dream (oh, yeah)
Is a, sweet dream (yeah).
