Written by Stefani, Sean Garrett, and Swizz Beatz, with production also being handled by Swizz Beatz, "Now That You Got It" is a reggae song featuring hip hop beats, stacatto piano sample and military snare drums. Lyrically, the song places Gwen asking her lover to give all that she wants. A remix featuring Damian Marley was produced for the song's release as the album's fourth single on August 27, 2007 by Interscope Records. The original solo version received mixed reviews from music critics, with some praising its catchiness, while others calling it repetitive. However, the remix version was more praised, being called "a laid back, summery tune". Commercially, the single experienced very little success, reaching the top-forty in six countries, while failing to gain impact in the United States and the United Kingdom. The song's music video was directed by The Saline Project and was shot in Puerto Rico and Jamaica, featuring Stefani and the Harajuku Girls. The song was performed during The Sweet Escape Tour. ==Background and release== Before going on tour with her Harajuku Lovers Tour (2005), Stefani revealed that she was going to release a second album in 2006, stating that, "I have a bunch of leftover tracks from making Love. Angel. Music. Baby." she said. "And two months ago, Pharrell called me up, he was like, 'Come down to Miami and write some more songs!' And I'm like, 'OK!' I went down there and wrote four songs and played three of them tonight. They're really fresh." In September 2006, during the Fashion Week, MTV News interviewed Swizz Beatz and he said he was working with Stefani as well. "She's always taking it to the next level," he said. "I love her background for music. She likes a lot of Caribbean sounds with hard beats." They worked on "Now That You Got It", which was selected to be the fourth single from ''The Sweet Escape'' (2006). For the single version, Stefani enlisted Damien Marley, son of reggae legend Bob Marley, giving the single a "reggae" feel to it.〔 It was released to mainstream radio in the United States, on August 26, 2007,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=R&R :: Going for Adds :: CHR/Top 40 )〕 while in the United Kingdom, it was released on October 15, 2007. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Now That You Got It」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
