JANIS JOPLIN "CRY BABY"

2 comentarios:

  1. Rebelde y provocativa, polémica e inconformista, vivió una vida vertiginosa, intensa y fugaz, siempre cercana a la generación beatnik, siempre lejos de todo convencionalismo, siempre al filo de la navaja...
    En el universo de la música, su personal e inconfundible estilo y su ardiente y desgarrada voz la hicieron una de las más grandes cantantes de la historia del blues y del rock and roll.
    Como muestra de su “enérgico” carácter, al fallecer el ex-presidente Eisenhower en Marzo de 1969 y cuando una foto de ella iba a ser portada del prestigioso e influyente semanario Newsweek, al ver peligrar dicha portada comentaría indignada: “Catorce ataques al corazón, y el hijo de puta tiene que estirar la pata justamente esta semana, en MI semana...”
    De seguir entre nosotros, Janis Joplin hoy tendría sesenta y nueve años. Pero el alcohol y las drogas se cruzaron en su camino y la convirtieron en la componente más emblemática del tristemente conocido como “Club de los 27”.

  2. Cry baby, cry baby, cry baby,
    Honey, welcome back home.
    I know she told you,
    Honey I know she told you that she loved you
    Much more than I did,
    But all I know is that she left you,
    And you swear that you just don't know why,
    But you know, honey I'll always,
    I'll always be around if you ever want me
    Come on and cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby,
    Oh honey, welcome back home.
    Don't you know, honey,
    Ain't nobody ever gonna love you
    The way I try to do ?
    Who'll take all your pain,
    Honey, your heartache, too ?
    And if you need me, you know
    That I'll always be around if you ever want me
    Come on and cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby,
    Oh daddy, like you always saying to do.
    And when you walk around the world, babe,
    You said you'd try to look for the end of the road,
    You might find out later that the road'll end in Detroit,
    Honey, the road'll even end in Kathmandu.
    You can go all around the world
    Trying to find something to do with your life, baby,
    When you only gotta do one thing well,
    You only gotta do one thing well to make it in this world, babe.
    You got a woman waiting for you there,
    All you ever gotta do is be a good man one time to one woman
    And that'll be the end of the road, babe,
    I know you got more tears to share, babe,
    So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
    And cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby.
    And if you ever feel a little lonely, dear,
    I want you to come on, come on to your mama now,
    And if you ever want a little love of a woman
    Come on and baby baby baby babe babe baby now
    Cry baby yeah.
