Un unico album, dopo il quale non si è più saputo molto della sua carriera artistica. Tuttavia, ciò che leggiamo sull’home page del suo sito ufficiale ci fa ben sperare: la vincitrice degli Idols australiani del 2005, Kate DeAraugo, sta ora lavorando ad un nuovo album ed ad una nuova tournée.
La canzone di oggi, inizialmente scritta dal gruppo The Veronicas (le quali hanno successivamente inciso una loro versione), è un pop rock molto orecchiabile, dai suoni aperti e dal testo graffiante. E’ il secondo singolo estratto da “A Place I’ve Never Been”, e per oltre ventiquattro settimane è restato nella top 100 australiana, classificandosi come il singolo più venduto nel 2006.
E mentre attendiamo il nuovo cd, ecco a voi la canzone di oggi a chiudere la nostra prima settimana di blogging:
“Faded”
You never take
Take the time to really look
Look at the one
The one I really am
You try to fit
To fit me in a perfect box
You let me slip between the cracks
[CHORUS:]
Now I’ve faded
into someone else
Made me someone I don’t wanna be
Yeah I’m faded
My true colour’s gone
Like a picture nobody sees
I’ll bet you don’t
Don’t even know my favourite song
You tell me how
How I should wear my hair
You wanna change
Everything I ever was
Try to erase me
Till I’m not there
[CHORUS:]
Now I’ve faded
Into someone else
Made me someone I don’t wanna be
Yeah I’m faded
My true colour’s gone
Like a picture nobody sees
Now I’ve faded
Like I never was
Till I don’t even know myself
Yeah I’m faded
Into what you want
But I’m not takin’ it too well
I don’t wanna be your little picture perfect pretty girl
Who’s got nothing to say
I’m not gonna wait around
Let you run my whole life down
So you can watch me fade away
(Faded, Faded)
You try to fit
Fit me in your perfect box
(Faded, Faded)
You try to fit
Fit me in your perfect box
You try to fit
Fit me in a perfect box
You let me slip between the cracks
[CHORUS:]
Now I’ve faded
Into someone else
Made me someone I don’t wanna be
Yeah I’m faded
My true colour’s gone
Like a picture nobody sees
Now I’ve faded
Like I never was
Till I don’t even know myself
Yeah I’m faded
Into what you want
But I’m not takin’ it too well
I Faded
(Faded, hated, slippin’ away as I disappear in the dark)
I Faded
(Faded, hated, so far away from who I was at the start)
Faded, hated, slippin’ away as I disappear in the dark
Faded, hated, so far away from who I was at the start
