Il disco dal quale è tratto il singolo, s'intitola "Bigger, Better, Faster, More!" e nel 1992 arrivò all’undicesimo posto della Billboard Top 200, e anche dopo una messa in onda massiccia del video su MTV, l’album vendette più di 6 milioni di copie in tutto il mondo. Due anni dopo, lo scioglimento.
Che fine hanno fatto oggi le 4 non blondes??
Partendo da Wanda Day, morta per droga nel 1997, troviamo Shauna e Christa, entrambe ancora inserite nel mondo della musica con diversi progetti. La frontgirl cantante Linda Perry, invece, ha scritto canzoni per cantanti come Alicia Keys, Christina Aguilera e Pink. Ah, nel frattempo aveva fatto pubblico outing dichiarandosi lesbica.
Tra l'altro, Linda ha collaborato con la nostra Giusy Ferreri (molto probabilmente destinata a diventare meteora anche lei) per la realizzazione del suo primo album di inediti, che uscirà il 14 novembre.
Vabbè, aspettero' qualche anno prima di parlare anche di lei. Per adesso, ecco qui il testo della canzone che nel '92 rese celebri in tutto il mondo le 4 non blondes: "What's up?".
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
And I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed
Just 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 and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said 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
Just 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 and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what's going on?
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
And I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed
Just 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 and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said 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
Just 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 and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what's going on?
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
