4 Non Blondes foi uma banda de rock alternativo norte-americana formada em 1989 em São Francisco, com Linda Perry (vocal), Roger Rocha (guitarra), Christa Hillhouse (baixo), Dawn Richardson (bateria). Seu único álbum, Bigger, Better, Faster, More! (1992), recebeu o prêmio de melhor álbum, vendendo cerca de seis mihões de cópias em todo o mundo. O single “What’s Up?”, um dos maiores hits da década de 90, recebeu o prêmio de melhor música de Bay Area, e Linda Perry foi eleita como a melhor cantora do ano. O sucesso da banda levou Perry a deixar o grupo, considerando-o muito pop. Ela seguiu carreira solo e lançou dois álbuns: In Flight (1995) e After Hours (1999), sem muito sucesso. Como produtora, Perry trabalhou com cantoras famosas como Pink e Christina Aguilera.
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
