How the audience receive the song - "For You' was made for the 2018 film, 'Fifty Shades Freed' which is the third film in the series of 'Fifty Shades of Grey'. The song makes you feel very free and at home. People in or out of a relationship can relate to this because it is about someone you love, feel at ease around and can be yourself around without feeling judged. The word 'love' is emphasised a lot, said 12 times throughout the song and the word 'lifetime' is also said a lot, 10 times. This is to enhance the feeling of being in love forever and finding the one.


Lyrics analyse:

[Verse 1: Rita Ora]
In your eyes, I'm alive... I know I'm home
[Pre-Chorus: Rita Ora]
I'm free as a bird when I'm flying in your cage
This is referring to how she feels safe and at home; free like a bird; in her partners company.

[Chorus: Rita Ora]
Wasn't lookin' for love till I found you
She is in love and feels she has found her soulmate.

[Verse 2: Liam Payne]
Lips are made of ecstasy
Ecstasy is an addictive drug. He is saying that he can not get enough of her.

The song applies a very common formula to it; verse, chrous, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus.
