What Rihanna song, nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Solo Performance is also an interpolation of Goeff Mack's song "I've Been Everywhere"?
Where Have You Been "Where Have You Been" is a song by Barbadian singer Rihanna, from her sixth studio album, "Talk That Talk" (2011) serving as the fifth single. The song was written by Ester Dean, Geoff Mack, Lukasz "Dr. Luke" Gottwald, Henry "Cirkut" Walter, and Calvin Harris, with production handled by the latter three. "Where Have You Been" was released as the third international single from the album on May 8, 2012. The track is a dance-pop and techno house song that draws influence from trance, R&B and hip hop. It is backed by "hard, chilly synths" and contains an electro-inspired breakdown sequence. The song's lyrics interpolate Geoff Mack's 1959 song "I've Been Everywhere" and speak of a woman who is searching for a partner who will sexually please her.
