Dos Veces Linda

Hace 15 años supe por primera vez de Linda Perry, y hasta hoy me tiembla la estantería cada vez que la escucho, cosa que ocurre muy seguido, por cierto.

Sea desde los ya disueltos 4 Non Blondes, sea desde sus escasas grabaciones como solista, ésta mujer me rompe la cabeza con ese vozarrón impresionante, esa manera de cantar dejando el alma en el micrófono y esa boca enorme que parece que se come el mundo.
Ufff, hace 15 años que amo a Linda Perry, pero que nadie le vaya con el cuento, no sea cosa que se agrande =)



What´s Up

25 years and my life and still
I'm trying to get up that great big hill
of hope
For a destination
I realized quickly when I knew I should
that the world was made up of this
brotherhood of man
for whatever that means

So I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
to get it all out what's in my head
then I start feeling a little peculiar
So I wake in the morning and I step
outside I take a deep breath
I get real high
then I scream from the top of my lungs
What's goin' on

And I say, hey hey hey hey
I say hey, what's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I say hey, what's going on?
ooh, ooh ooh...

And I try, oh my God do I try
I try all the time
in this institution
And I pray, oh my God do I pray
I pray every single day
for a revolution

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
to get it all out what's in my head
And I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath
Then I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
what's goin' on

And I say, hey hey hey hey
I say hey, what's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I say hey, what's going on...
25 years and my life is still
I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination.

Fill Me Up


Wake me up when
The party's over
It seems Ive had too much wine
Please remember
To remind me
If I had a good time

Was I friendly?
Or was I bragging?
And did I start to bore you?
Was I charming?
Or was I absent?
Did I even say goodnight?

Fill me up lets take a ride
From your mouth into my mind
Cause I grow weary from this trip I'm on, yeah
And the ride keeps getting longer
And in morning
I'll be hungover with my face into the phone
Please forgive here on after
By the way how'd I get home?

Was I laughing?
Was I choking?
And did I start to annoy you?
Was I sleazy?
Or was I dazzling?
Did I even say goodbye?

Fill me up lets take a ride
From your mouth into my mind
Cause I grow weary from this trip I'm on, yeah
And the ride keeps getting longer

So wake me up when the party's over
I seems I've had too much wine
