Australian Charts 當前上榜 Top 50 歌曲。本歌的主唱 Bruno Mars 生於夏威夷，具有波多黎各血統，他與諸多 Hip Hop 歌手合作的作品當中我們能聽到一種非常清新、陽光的夏威夷及拉丁混合風味。Bruno Mars 同時也是一個十分謙遜的人，他在這些充當主音的 Hip Hop 歌曲中永遠不當主角，比如說，《Billionaire》這首歌所歸給的是說唱者 Travie McCoy 名下的專輯，另一首歌《Nothin' on You》也是屬說唱者 B.o.B 所有，Bruno Mars 在當中只是括號中的那個“ft.”——他甚至連一張個人專輯都還沒出過——但聽眾們最先記住的，卻永遠是他那陽光燦爛般的聲音。每當我心情欠佳的時候，我就會從這首《Billionaire》和 Bruno Mars 的歌聲中得到放鬆，正如歌詞的意思所說的那樣：I know we all have a similar dream, which is I wanna be a billionaire, who buys all of the things I never had! 原唱的主音部分我稍作了些加工，添加了一段自創的和聲以及把過門的引唱進行濾波化。當然，本人的聲線是絕對無法和 Bruno Mars 相比的。
I wanna be a billionaire
So fricking bad
Buy all of the things I never had
I wanna be on the cover of
Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen
Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights
Yeah, a different city every night
Oh I, I swear
The world better prepare
For when I'm a billionaire
Yeah I would have a show like Oprah
I would be the host of
Everyday Christmas
Give Brian a wish list
I'd probably pull an Angelina and Brad Pitt
And adopt a bunch of babies that ain't ever had shit
Give away a few Mercedes like here lady'd have this
And last but not least grant somebody the last wish
It's been a couple'o months that I've been single so
You can call me Brian Claus minus the Ho Ho
Get it, I'd probably visit where Katrina'd hit
And dame sure do a lot more than that FEMA did
Yeah, can't forget about me, Stupid
Everywhere I go I'mma have my own theme music
Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights
Yeah, a different city every night
Oh I, I swear
The world better prepare
For when I'm a billionaire
When I'm a billionaire
I'll be playing basketball with the President
Dunking on his delegates
Then I'll compliment him on his political etiquette
Toss a couple'o milli' in the air just for the heck of it
But keep the fives, twenties, tens in bins completely separated
Yeah, I'll be in a whole new tax bracket
We in recession but let me take a crack at it
I'd probably take whatever's left and just split it up
So everybody that I love can have a couple'o bucks
And not a single tummy around me
Would know what hunger was eating good sleeping soundly
I know we all have a similar dream
Go in your pocket, pull out your wallet
Put it in the air and sing
I wanna be a billionaire
So fricking bad
Buy all of the things I never had
I wanna be on the cover of
Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen
Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights
Yeah, a different city every night
Oh I, I swear
The world better prepare
For when I'm a billionaire
When I'm a billionaire
I wanna be a billionaire
