Brooke Fraser: "Betty" video musicale youtube

Dopo il grande successo di “Something In The Water” e dopo una quantità impressionante di articoli su magazine e quotidiani dedicati alla sua pop music d’autore, Brooke Fraser torna con il nuovo singolo “Betty”, di cui vediamo il video musicale youtube, anch’esso tratto da “Flags“, l’album che la cantautrice neozelandese ha prodotto da sola, senza l’aiuto di nessuno. 
Il sound è lo stesso: melodia, immediatezza e quanto basta di chitarra acustica e schiocchi di dita per accompagnare una voce unica. “Betty” è una canzone dolce, solare e il video, in cui Brooke canta e balla in mezzo a un prato fiorito, è perfetto per la primavera 2011. Il testo racconta un pezzo della vita “Betty”, i suoi rimpianti, i suoi segreti…






Testo: "Betty"

You got a quick snap-lock on your cold, cold heart
You got your YSL kicks and a red birthmark
In the shape of Canada
That you try to keep a secret



You got a quick clack walk and a cold hard stare
And if your eyes could talk they’d say they just don’t care
Before they wander off
To hide inside their sockets

You’ve got your scars and you’ve got your birthmarks
You’ve got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey
You’ve got your secrets
You’ve got your regrets
Darling, we all do





You got a fool-proof plan for a lonely life
You won’t be no one’s daughter and no drunk man’s wife
If a wife at all
It’s a silly institution
Or so you keep insisting

You’ve got your scars and you’ve got your birthmarks

You’ve got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey
You’ve got your secrets
You’ve got your regrets
Darling, we all do




You’re cool coy, ’bout your strawberry hip
It’s you that’s hidden by the expectations
We want to see you, won’t you show us where to start?
You’re talking trash with your replica lips
It’s you that tickle in the conversation
Sweet Betty, won’t you show us who you are?

You’ve got your scars and you’ve got your birthmarks
You’ve got Toronto hiding on your hip, honey
You’ve got your secrets
You’ve got your regrets
Darling, we all do

You’ve got a quick snap-lock on your cold, cold heart
