Märkväl, inte ett politiskt inlägg, utan ett tips på en bra låt. Melissa Etheridge gör en cover på Joan Armatradings låt The weakness in me. Armatrading gör låten bättre, men videon är störtskön med Etheridge. Jag kan bara tala om för alla heteros (om ni inte redan visste det) att det gör precis lika ont att bli dumpad av en tjej som av en kille.
I'm not the sort of person who falls in and quickly out of love
But to you, I give my affection, right from the start.
I have a lover who loves me - how could I break such a heart?
Yet still you get my attention.
Why do you come here, when you know I've got troubles enough?
Why do you call me, when you know I can't answer the phone?
And make me lie when I don't want to,
And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool?
Make me stay when I should not?
If you're so strong then resolve the weakness in me.
Why do you come here, and pretend to be just passing by?
I need to see you - I need to hold you - tightly.
Feeling guilty,
And I'm worried, and I'm waking from a tormented sleep
'Cause this old love, you know it has me bound,
But this new love cuts so deep.
If I choose now, I'm bound to lose out;
One of you is gonna have to fall...
I need you, baby.
