Note: We is frequently used to express men in general, including the speaker. We is also often used by individuals, as authors, editors, etc., in speaking of themselves, in order to avoid the appearance of egotism in the too frequent repetition of the pronoun I. The plural style is also in use among kings and other sovereigns, and is said to have been begun by King John of England. Before that time, monarchs used the singular number in their edicts. The German and the French sovereigns followed the example of King John in
d. 1200.

OURS is an American-based rock band led by singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Jimmy Gnecco.
"Ours" is a song written and recorded by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift for her third studio album Speak Now (2010). Produced by Swift and Nathan Chapman, it was later released as a promotional single by iTunes and Amazon.com on October 25, 2011. It was released as the sixth and final single of the album and was the fifth single from Speak Now to be sent to country radio on December 5, 2011.
The song peaked at number one on the Billboard Country Songs Chart and number 13 on the Hot 100 and was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. Internationally, the song peaked at 91 in Australia and 68 on the Canadian Hot 100. In the UK, it peaked at number 181 on the UK Singles Chart.
A music video for the song was released in December 2011 and aired on E! News and E! Online and is the second video of Swift's to be directed by Declan Whitebloom, as well as the second video for which Swift would do the concept for. The video received positive praise from music critics.
Charles Souchon better known as Ours (born in 1978 at Boulogne-Billancourt, France) is a French singer and songwriter. He is the second son of Alain Souchon and the younger brother of singer Pierre Souchon.

He supported Zazie and Michel Jonasz during their 2007 tours. His 2008 music video "Quand Nina est saoule" was filmed with the American actress Nora Zehetner.
