Meghan Trainor's New Song Shows Her Versatility

Calling all Megatronz: On Monday, a new Meghan Trainor song called "Take Me There" hit the web, and it showcases a different side of the 21-year-old pop star. On the bright, ukulele-filled track, Trainor ditches the retro sound of "All About That Bass" and "Lips Are Movin'" in favor of a much lighter, almost beach-y vibe — similar to artists like Jack Johnson, Jason Mraz, and Colbie Caillat. For the most part, it works! Lyrically, it's not the singer's strongest effort to date, but it's still an enjoyable listen (and it's perfect for the arrival of spring).

On the first verse and pre-chorus, Trainor sings:

We ain't got a reason to get out of bed

Just going through life, not living yet

We need motivation, and no more regret

'Cause we can still dream, let's not forget

But I know, I know, I know how to ease your mind, whoa-oh-oh

Let go, let go, leave all this s--t behind

When the chorus arrives, "Take Me There" really takes off:

Let's make the most of this moonlight

Let's raise 'em up, 'cause there might never be a chance like this, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

Let's run away to the West Coast

Don't hesitate, 'cause there won't ever be a chance like this

Hey, you know I wanna be there

Come on and take me there

You know I wanna be there

Unfortunately, there's no word yet on where "Take Me There" came from. Is it a leftover from Trainor's debut album, Title? Is it a demo she wrote for another artist? Or is it intended for a new project of her own? At this point, your guess is as good as mine. Regardless, her fans should eat the adorable track up.

Title is available everywhere now.
