Beth Ditto: I Wrote The Book, nuevo videoclip y letra. Homenaje a Madonna

Mientras medio mundo mainstream sigue hablando de las similitudes Born This Way-Express Yourself, el otro medio se debate entre la veneración o las arcadas ante el nuevo vídeo de Britney, Beth Ditto estrena un homenaje a Madonna en forma de videoclip para su tema I Wrote The Book.

El próximo 8 de marzo se espera que se ponga a la venta un EP de cuatro temas de Beth Ditto en solitario.
En lugar de contar con el resto de Gossip, Ditto se ha hecho acompañar por los cada vez más presentes Simian Mobile Disco para la producción de sus nuevos temas.

Bastante menos cargado de sexo y provocación, pero también en blanco y negro, vemos llegar a Beth Ditto al pasillo del hotel del enorme Justify My Love de Madonna.
Éste ha sido el escenario que la líder de Gossip ha escogido para situar este noventero y de sonidos house más clásicos I Wrote The Book que seguro creará urticaria a los fans de sus inicios más punk rock, pero que a mí personalmente me encanta.

I put you up, I treat you wellTell you secrets I never tellWe pretend, it’s all okBut there’s one thing we never sayThe world is full of good intentionsParadise is hard to findSay they love you but they don’t mentionWho they were with again last nightRevenge, regret, I wrote the bookForgive, forget, I wrote the bookKeeping secrets, I wrote the book only don’t test meHeartbreak and then some, tell me where is a friend when you need oneBefore you take a second look, remember I know every trick in the bookIt never stops around the clockWhen I’m there, you speak so softThe runaround will wear you outYou break it off, I’ll break you downThe world is full of good intentionsParadise is full of liesTell you they love you but fail to mentionWho they were with again last nightCheating, sneaking, I wrote the bookBegging, pleading, I wrote the bookLying, crying, I wrote the book only don’t test meHeartbreak and there’s some, tell me where is a friend when you need oneBefore you take a second look, remember I know every trick in the bookHeartbreak and there’s some, tell me where is a friend when you need oneBefore you take a second look, remember I know every trick in the bookI wrote the book, I wrote the book, I wrote the book only protest meI wrote the book only protest me nowI wrote the book only.
