Bruno Mars, nació el 8 de octubre de 1985, hijo de filipina y puertorriqueño y criado en Honolulu, Hawai, EEUU por una familia de músicos. A los dos años empezó a hacer música. Tras actuar en diversos espectáculos musicales durante su niñez después de terminar la educación secundaria se trasladó a Los Angeles y comenzó a producir canciones para otros cantantes. Trabajó con The Smeezingtons, Motown Records y Atlantic Records, con esta última lanzó su álbum debut “Doo-Wop and Wooligans” y logró colocar en los primeros puestos sus sencillos “Just the way you are” y “Granade”. Ganando multitud de premios. Su música se caracteriza por mostrar una amplia variedad de estilos e influencias y continiene elementos de muchos géneros musicales diferentes.

“Granade” es una balada lanzada oficialmente como el segundo sencillo del disco “Doo-Wop and Wooligans” el 28 de septiembre de 2010 a través de la tienda digital iTunes. Aunque en un principio tuvo muy buena acogida, sus metáforas violentas fueron criticadas negativamente. Es una canción sobre la angustia y sobre lo que es capaz de hacer una persona enamorada que no entiende que no es correspondida. 

Easy come, easy go, that's just how you live
Oh, take, take, take it all but you never give
Should've known you was trouble from the first kiss
Had your eyes wide open, why were they open?

Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is

I'd catch a grenade for you
Throw my hand on a blade for you
I'd jump in front of a train for you
You know I'd do anything for you

I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, no, no, no

Black, black, black and blue, beat me 'til I'm numb
Tell the devil I said, hey,
when you get back to where you're from
Mad women, bad women, that's just what you are, yeah
You'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car

Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, yes, you did

To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is

I'd catch a grenade for you
Throw my hand on a blade for you
I'd jump in front of a train for you
You know I'd do anything for you

I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same

If my body was on fire
Ooh, you'd watch me burn down in flames
You said you loved me, you're a liar
'Cause you never, ever, ever did, baby

But darling, I'd still catch a grenade for you
Throw my hand on a blade for you
I'd jump in front of a train for you
You know I'd do anything for you

I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same

No, you won't do the same
You wouldn't do the same
Ooh, you never do the same
No, no, no, no
