Week 29_20250203_022311_0000.png


Hello, community !!!The 29th week arrived and with it a new opportunity to share our music.

For my entrance I selected one of the most representative themes of alternative rock of the 90s. "What's Up" is a beautiful and deeply existential song that, under that question, reflects and evaluates the female reality.

With the vocal seal of Linda Perry, this song became a anthem for many lovers of this musical genre and for me it charges a special meaning because it returns, with nostalgia, towards my childhood and first years of adolescence.

It is a huge challenge to interpret "What's Up", however, I have tried to give my own emotion looking for, not to make an imitation of the original, but try to appropriate the subject even though you keep in my proposal some vocal resources that make this song that piece that pieceTremendous what it is.Linda Perry imposes a difficult measure to match that voice full of power and nuances;Although it is the undisputed reference, I wanted to move more towards my own record, adjust it.Anyway I enjoyed this moment.

Lyrics/ Letra



What's Up?

Twenty-five years
And my life is 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
For 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, I am feeling
A little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take deep breath
And I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
What's going on?

And I say, hey, yeah, yeah-eah
Hey, yeah, yeah
I said, hey! What's goin' on?

And I sing, hey, yeah, yeah-eah
Hey, yeah, yeah
I said, hey! What's going on?

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, I am feeling
A little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take deep breath
And I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
What's going on?

And I say, hey, yeah, yeah-eah
Hey, yeah, yeah
I said, hey! What's goin' on?

And I sing, hey, yeah, yeah-eah
Hey, yeah, yeah
I said, hey! What's going on?

And I say, hey, yeah, yeah-eah
Hey, yeah, yeah
I said, hey! What's goin' on?

And I sing, hey, yeah, yeah-eah
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I said, hey! What's going on?

Twenty-five years
And my life is still
I'm trying to get up
That great big hill of hope
For a destination

Week 29_20250203_022311_0000.png


Hola, comunidad !!! Llegó la semana 29 y con ella una nueva oportunidad de compartir nuestra música .

Para mí entrada seleccioné uno de los temas más representativos del rock alternativo de la década del 90. "What's Up" es un canto hermoso y profundamente existencial que, bajo esa interrogante, reflexiona y evalúa la realidad femenina.

Con el sello vocal de Linda Perry, esta canción se convirtió en un himno para muchos amantes de este género musical y para mí cobra un significado especial pues me devuelve, con nostalgia, hacia mi infancia y primeros años de adolescencia.

Es un reto enorme interpretar "What's Up", sin embargo, he tratado de darle mi propia emoción buscando, no hacer una imitación de la original, sino intentar apropiarme del tema aunque conserve en mi propuesta algunos recursos vocales que hacen de esta canción esa pieza tremenda que es. Linda Perry impone una medida difícil de igualar con esa voz llena de potencia y matices; aunque es el referente indiscutible, he querido moverme más hacia mí propio registro, ajustarlo. De cualquier manera disfruté mucho este momento.
