Please don't stop writing Linda I've been listening here in the background for over 30 years if I ever get to meet you I'll shake your hand you so speak the thoughts of millions
So a pure beautiful heartfelt song. Brings you to that place of sadness and survival. Thank you Linda for always staying true. And helping us all get thru. These comments are so very beautiful too
Oh, Linda... you just wrapped up all the nostalgic melancholy I've been travelling through recently and delivered it, straight to my guts. I can't breathe...!
Here I am, facing myself Peeling away emotions I felt Wouldn′t change a moment of my life So many walked through these doors Falling through windows to so much more We held onto each other to get by Put up a fight Enough is enough We were just kids Falling in love Trying to play a game we couldn't win So, where are you now? Where were you then? Do you belong? Have you found a true friend? And who you making love with along the way? I′ve been fearless Trying to be strong Yeah, I've been living on the edge For so long I've been waiting for light To show me the way Help me piece it together, frame by frame I′m holding on Watching my past The ones that made it And the ones that couldn′t last It's all right here I wrote it to myself What I wanted wasn′t crazy All I needed was some light In my life
As a youngster listening to your music to a middle-aged 46 year old....This song is Amazing! I seen you in concert in Cleveland, Ohio back in the 90's. However sweet that is, this song brought me to tears. Those friends I seen you in concert with have passed on. Sometimes the strongest cannot handle life and the weakest ones can. Kudos, Linda, this a terrific song and memory catching a butterfly!
She was the lead singer and primary songwriter of 4 Non Blondes, and has since founded two record labels and composed and produced songs for other artists, ...
2:30 - 3:06 Literally WOW. From the line "frame by frame" to the 3:06 mark is where you feel all of the emotion she put into the song. What got me and brought a tear to my eye was the way she said "couldn't laaaaast". Its a broken vocal run, like she is on the verge of crying and barely able to hold those notes. I literally listened to that part repeatedly because of how well it was done. I am convinced that part will make anyone cry. This song is beautifully sang by her because of her emotion. No one and I mean literally no one can do this song like that. Linda Perry is really the only one who can sing songs by Linda Perry.
I just turned 40... I talk about Linda Perry often & how her artistry grabs moments that are like still photographs locked inside a secret vault inside of me & they just leap out. What im trying to say is we all end up turning into a semblance of our parents in becoming nostalgic about the olden days. I can’t wait to see the documentary I was such a punky Brewster fan when I was young. I was obsessed - i forgot how obsessed I was and how life was so much simpler thank you for your beautiful song Linda!
When you read an Edgar Allen Poe story it reaches out and grabs your emotions and doesn’t let go until the story ends. Linda’s songwriting has that same effect. She is the Edgar Allen Poe in the world of music. Fabulous!!
I don't know Edgar Allen Poe but he can concern himself lucky to be compared to Linda. I wish I could see and hear more of her guitar skills like when she transformed the house of the rising sun to a complete new dimension. Rock at its best!
I am so glad you found a way to express your emotions through Music! Linda Perry you are truly a blessing to this world. Just got through listening to Linda Perry Behind The Music - I cried! I have also been sexually, physically, verbally and emotionally abused. I am 64 and just am learning why my life has been such a mess. Somehow I have blamed myself - when I knew all along that it wasn't my fault. I always gave up on life. People have been telling me that I should write a book and it will become a #1 best seller. Your story has given me hope that I can write. Love your Soul. Your life (even thou tragic) is an inspiration to many.
What a beautiful and haunting song. It's so right: all we wanted was som light in our lives. As parents that's the most impotant thing to remember, faced with every new version of that wish.
Exactly, I'VE LIVED IT, MY 20 YR OLD WONDERFUL SON, AND PASSED IN TJ 19 YEARS AGO, THIS PAST VALENTINES DAY, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN 39 BUT, THANK YOU, GOD, I HAVE HIS 30+ BROTHER, AND LINDA PERRY, AND OUR HEAVENLY FATHER THANK YOU
Hi Linda,I'm a 59 -year old jazz,rock and fusion guitarist who always has complained about the absolute decay of pop music after the 80's but this briefly stopped when the song What's Up came up in the mid 90,s...if l recall right in the magnificent, one-of-a- kind voice of such a temperamental,super good looking brunette. Oh my,who can dislike this 3-chord,melissma filled,ear -twisting performance? I'm glad l could reach you in your site and express personally to you how bless the world is to have this magnificent song sung by you that have become a standard of quality melodic rock and the song of choice for lots of hip singers around the world. All the best for you and your people, an all time musical gourmet of Cuba wishes you!!!
I want this song to go on and on and on. What memories it evokes. Those days of careless wonder. Damn, you are raw and real. Goddess keep blessing you!
Just heard this song about 5 minutes ago, for the first time ever. Came immediately to youtube looking for it and here I am thanking you for this masterpiece. Every part of this song is perfect.
I'm 28 and have always been inspired and captivated by music like this. Modern music isn't for me. It never has been. Lots of broken memories of my childhood have been replaced by the likes of you, sinead o'connor, Alanis, Lennox and more. Music is timeless.
Yes Mam, you picked some good ones. Linda Perry was one of my favorite. Sinead O Conner was too. I remember when she ripped the Pope to bring attention to what was going on. Then was shuned for years , she was a hero in my book. I'm sorry, Linda Perry can make my heart blead , I forgot I had a heart. Im glad u have such good taist in great gals
My exact thoughts!!! I'm glad she overcame her demon's with drugs Thank you Jesus She is so gifted,.and she thanks him in most her songs 🎵 ❤, that I like. Love you Ms Perry
You are my favorite SINGER of all times! FABULOUS! Such delivery in emotions... always have the shivers when I hear you! I have been waiting a long time for a new song! THANKS!
sorry, I'm not crying, I'm just feeling it ... and ... okay, I was crying because of this too, it's just that it's a very beautiful song and it touches my heart, after 15 years having to do a song again It must be a little challenge to do but "knowing" Linda I could not expect anything other than something done with so many feelings that I could not hear from another artist. And I am left with few words but, sorry I am moved and crying, I can not express myself anymore
You're a diamond Linda, and you shine brighter than the sun. Thank you for reminding me of what humanity is all about. Sometimes I lose that with my busy life.
You are so.pure, thanks for sharing your gift with all of us. Keep on, keep on. My son, is an awesome photographer, and video augrapher if you ever need one. Love you Linda. Thank you
@@aleoliveira4674 Na verdade ela nunca parou de fazer músicas. Está nos privando de coisas maravilhosas rsrs. Mas ela sempre compõe e produz músicas para outros artistas. Não sei pq faz isso. Ela arrasa ! Tem cada música maravilhosa, inesquecível ! Grande Linda Perry !
Singing about past brings everything to the surface so we can move forward. I really respect and relate to your music. Thanks for your message in song and Your incredible voice.
You speak and bare your soul to what so many dare not let themselves feel- your beauty shines❤
Please don't stop writing Linda I've been listening here in the background for over 30 years if I ever get to meet you I'll shake your hand you so speak the thoughts of millions
To meet you would be humbling. To listen to you is like a child running to the playground.
So a pure beautiful heartfelt song. Brings you to that place of sadness and survival. Thank you Linda for always staying true. And helping us all get thru. These comments are so very beautiful too
"What I wanted wasn't crazy"
You break my heart in the most amazing way with your voice...
Yet, the narcissist trolls in our lives, attempt to convince us that these beautiful things that we want are, indeed, "crazy"!?!
Oh, Linda... you just wrapped up all the nostalgic melancholy I've been travelling through recently and delivered it, straight to my guts. I can't breathe...!
Here I am, facing myself
Peeling away emotions I felt
Wouldn′t change a moment of my life
So many walked through these doors
Falling through windows to so much more
We held onto each other to get by
Put up a fight
Enough is enough
We were just kids
Falling in love
Trying to play a game we couldn't win
So, where are you now?
Where were you then?
Do you belong?
Have you found a true friend?
And who you making love with along the way?
I′ve been fearless
Trying to be strong
Yeah, I've been living on the edge
For so long
I've been waiting for light
To show me the way
Help me piece it together, frame by frame
I′m holding on
Watching my past
The ones that made it
And the ones that couldn′t last
It's all right here
I wrote it to myself
What I wanted wasn′t crazy
All I needed was some light
In my life
U ARE THE BEST AMERICAN ARTIST!!!!
😊❤,hermosa voz!!!!,gran cantante e interprete!!!🥹💞
