Caso strano siamo negli anni ’90 e oggi vi propongo la cantautrice, chitarrista e produttrice discografica statunitense Meredith Ann Brooks col suo pezzo più famoso, “Bitch” (1997).
Inizialmente, alcune stazioni radio preferirono evitare di menzionare il nome della canzone (bitch vuol dire puttana) riferendosi ad essa semplicemente come “una canzone di Meredith Brooks”. Tuttavia, con l’aumentare della popolarità del brano, divenne indispensabile chiamare la canzone con il proprio nome.
Il comico australiano Chris Franklin ha scritto una parodia del brano chiamata “Bloke“, in cui viene descritto il classico modello di vita di un uomo medio australiano.

You’re so good to me
I know but I can’t change
Tried to tell you
But you look at me like maybe
I’m an angel underneath
Innocent and sweet
You must have been relieved
To see the softer side
I can understand how you’d be so confused
I don’t envy you
I’m a little bit of everything
All rolled into one
I’m a lover
I’m a child
I’m a mother
I’m a sinner
I’m a saint
And I do not feel ashamed
I’m your hell
I’m your dream
I’m nothing in between
You know you wouldn’t want it any other way
This may mean you’ll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that when I start to make you nervous
And I’m going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won’t mean a thing
I’m a lover
I’m a child
I’m a mother
I’m a sinner
I’m a saint
And I do not feel ashamed
I’m your hell
I’m your dream
I’m nothing in between
You know you wouldn’t want it any other way
The season’s already changin’
I think it’s cool you do what you do
And don’t try to save me
I’m a lover
I’m a child
I’m a mother
I’m a sinner
I’m a saint
And I do not feel ashamed
I’m your hell
I’m your dream
I’m nothing in between
You know you wouldn’t want it any other way
I’m a tease
I’m a goddess on my knees
When you hurt
When you suffer
I’m your angel undercover
I’ve been numb
I’m revived
Can’t say I’m not alive
You know I wouldn’t want it any other way
