Transcription

Background

Annie wrote "I Know UR Girlfriend Hates Me" with producer Richard X and songwriter Hannah Robinson, the two of whom had written "Chewing Gum" and "Me Plus One" from Annie's debut album Anniemal (2004). They wrote the music first, inspired by Prince's 1986 funk song "Kiss".[2]

Annie described how the lyrics were based on a friend of hers, "who was really a beautiful girl, always surrounded by loads of guys."[3] Her friend spent time with a guy and was confronted by his girlfriend for it.[4] Annie called the problems between the two "ridiculous, but also funny."[3] After her friend kept telling her about the situation, Annie decided to write a song about it.[4] The lyrics describe a girlfriend who is going berserk and "needs to calm down." Annie's persona, however, hints that the girlfriend probably should be worried.[2]

The song was used in 2 episodes of Waterloo Road, screened on 18 February 2009 and 25 February 2009.

Critical reception

"I Know UR Girlfriend Hates Me" received positive reviews from pop music critics. Pitchfork Media's Marc Hogan described the song as a "slinky electro-pop" and compared it to English dance group Saint Etienne.[5] Cam Lindsay of Exclaim.ca called the song a "brilliant slice of pop" with "delicious" lyrics.[6] In a review for Digital Spy, Nick Levine described the song as "sweet, scrumptious electropop" and compared it to her song "Chewing Gum", a "nearly-hit from a few years back".[7]

Pitchfork Media placed "I Know UR Girlfriend Hates Me" at number 58 on their 100 Best Tracks of 2008 list,[8] while Planet Sound named it the eighth best single of 2008.
