Many people wants to live a glamorous life. But some part of you wants to reminisce about the humble past you once have. Fergie came out with this track by which she's looking back on how her life was before her fame. It takes humility to do what you usually did before attaining success.
Fergie has invited in rapper Ludacris to perform with her, and despite negative reviews, it turned out well. The airy and breezy feeling brought about airy vocals, and the killer midtempo beats is something R&B music lovers would like to listen to.

In the fast lane
And I won't change
For the glamorous
Lyrics
With career success, financial status will also take you higher. Lifestyle can change. You can buy things, and life the life of the rich and the famous. But the character in this song, such fame and fortune won't make her change, and stay the same.
After the show or after the Grammys
I like to go cool out with the family
Sippin', reminiscing on days when I had a Mustang
Lyrics
Fergie has been to the Grammys, performed and received awards, perhaps during her Black Eyed Peas days. But she remains herself lowly, that instead hanging out with famous people, she goes to her family to celebrate. Unsure if this is true, but if it is, she's showing humility.
I've got money in the bank
And I'd really like to thank
All the fans, I'd like to thank
Lyrics
Of course, the character is thankful for what she has now. She's giving tribute and showing her gratitude towards her fans who supported her. That's a must for every artists out there to do.
Glamorous was criticized by critics, and even said it will not be as successful as Fergie's previous songs. However, they were proven wrong. It became the second number 1 for her, and third top 3 in United States, according to Billboard. It was even a top 10 hit for her in UK, based from OCC. Music video was also well appreciated since it was released during the early days of YouTube, yet it earned more than 116 million at this moment.
