"Never Be You" is a 2012 song by Slovak recording artist Celeste Buckingham. Released on November 12 through iTunes, the track composed the singer along with Littlebeat producers Martin Šrámek—Andrej Hruška, and US-based musicians Aaron Harmon—Jordan Reyes, both from BoyGenius Studios. While the lyrics co-wrote Paula Winger, the music video directed by Roland Wraník was shot in a Slovak spa town, Trenčianske Teplice.[1][2]

The single peaked at number forty-two on the CZ Top 100 airplay chart,[3] and at number forty-seven on an equivalent SK playlist, Rádio Top 100 Oficiálna.[4] Within the CZ component playlist, it charted at number nine.[5]

Development

Buckingham wrote the lyrics in July 2012, as her own dialogue between true self and false self, or else a new recording artist versus her alter ego, described as a potentially acclaimed but arrogant music star.[6] In addition to, Paula Winger revised some of the verses.[1][2]
