Gwen ma che cazzo fai? Ripigliati! Che confusione, che disordine. Breaking Up è allo stesso tempo sia la più futuristica e interessante (sembra anticipare i motivetti gaghiani di due anni) sia la più orribile. Album con molte tracce che si sarebbero potute evitare, palesemente frutto di una fretta spasmodica da parte della casa discografica. Un progettino carino malriuscito.

01 Wind It Up (03:09)
High on the hill with the lonely goatherd
Lay odl lay odl lay he hoo
Yodel back with the girl and goatherd
Lay odl lay odl lo
Wind it up, wind it up, wind it up!
Odl lay odl lay odl-oo
Pharrell: Yeah.
This is the key that makes us wind up
When the beat comes on, the girls all line up
And the boys all look, but no, they can't touch
But the girls want to know why boys like us so much
They like the way we dance, they like the way we work
They like the way that L.A.M.B. is going 'cross my shirt
They like the way my pants, it compliments my shape
Pharrell: She's crazy, right?
They like the way we react every time we hear the...
Every time the bass bang
Realize it calls your name
Let the beat wind you up
And don't stop till your time is up
Get in line now
Wind it up! Uh, uh, uh
Wind it up! Uh, uh, uh
Pharrell: Come on.
Wind it up! Uh, uh, uh
Odl lay odl lay odl-oo
You've got to let the beat get under your skin
You've got to open up and let it all in
But see, once it gets in, the popping begins
Then you find out why all the boys stare
See, they're trying to bite our style
Trying to study our approach
They like the way we do it, so original
I guess that they are slow, so they should leave the room
This beat is for the clubs, and cars that go
Every time the bass bang
Realize it calls your name
Let the beat wind you up
And don't stop till your time is up
Get in line now
Wind it up! Uh, uh, uh
Pharrell: Are you all ready?
Wind it up! Uh, uh, uh
Wind it up! Uh, uh, uh
Wind it up!
Odl lay odl lay odl-oo
Uh-huh, it's your moment
Uh-huh, come on girl, you know you own it
Uh-huh, you know your key is still tick-tockin'
Yeah, but you know they're watchin'
Get it girl, get it, get it girl
Get it girl, get it, get it girl
To the front, to the side
To the back, but don't let him ride
Keep goin' girl, it's your night
Don't let him steal your light
I know he thinks you're fine and stuff
But does he know how to wind you up
Pharrell: Come on.
Wind it up! Uh, uh, uh
Wind it up! Uh, uh, uh
Wind it up! Uh, uh, uh
Wind it up!
Odl lay odl lay odl lay, hey!
04 Early Winter (04:44)
You, you know how to get me so low
My heart had a crash when we spoke
I can't fix what you broke
You, you always have a reason
Again and again this feelin'
Why do I give in
And I always was
Always was one for crying
I always was one for tears
The sun's getting cold, it's snowing
Looks like an early winter for us
Looks like an early winter for us
An early winter
Oh, I need you to turn me over
It's sad the map of the world is on you
The moon gravitates around you
The seasons escape you
And I always was
Always was one for crying
I always was one for tears
No, I never was
Never was one for lying
You lied to me all these years
The sun's getting cold, it's snowing
Looks like an early winter for us
Looks like an early winter for us
An early winter
Oh, I need you to turn me over
Why? Why do you act so stupid
Why? You know that I'm always right
It looks like an early winter for us
It hurts and I can't remember sunlight
An early winter for us
The leaves are changing color for us
And it gets too much, yeah, it gets so much
Starting over and over and over again
And it gets too much, yeah, it gets so much
Starting over and over and over again
And it gets too much, yeah, it gets so much
Starting over and over and over again
06 4 in the Morning (04:51)
Waking up to find another day
The moon got lost again last night
But now the sun has finally had its say
I guess I feel alright
But it hurts when I think
When I let it sink in
It's all over me
I'm lying here in the dark
I'm watching you sleep, it hurts a lot
And all I know is
You've got to give me everything
Nothing less 'cause
You know I give you all of me
I give you everything that I am
I'm handin' over everything that I've got
'Cause I wanna have a really true love
Don't ever wanna have to go and give you up
Stay up till four in the morning and the tears are pouring
And I want to make it worth the fight
What have we been doing for all this time
Baby, if we're gonna do it, come on, do it right
All I wanted was to know I'm safe
Don't wanna lose the love I've found
Remember when you said that you would change
Don't let me down
It's not fair how you are
I can't be complete, can you give me more
And all I know is
You've got to give me everything
Nothing less 'cause
You know I give you all of me
I give you everything that I am
I'm handin' over everything that I've got
'Cause I wanna have a really true love
Don't ever wanna have to go and give you up
Stay up till four in the morning and the tears are pouring
And I want to make it worth the fight
What have we been doing for all this time
Baby, if we're gonna do it, come on, do it right
Oh please, you know what I need
Save all your lovin' for me
We can't escape the love
Give me everything that you have
And all I know is
You've got to give me everything
And nothing less 'cause
You know I give you all of me
I give you everything that I am
I'm handin' over everything that I've got
'Cause I wanna have a really true love
Don't ever wanna have to go and give you up
Stay up till four in the morning and the tears are pouring
And I want to make it worth the fight
What have we been doing for all this time
Baby, if we're gonna do it, come on, do it right
Give you all of me
Give you everything
Give you all of me
08 Fluorescent (04:18)
I'm not saying nothing you don't already know
You know you're too delicious, more than I can handle
Lyin' around late at night, so luscious that I ache
Baby, why'd you fall asleep? I'm still awake
I'm in love, in love with a dream
My Valentine's gone and broke my wings
I'll see in time, I feel a bit weak
You better be right, 'cause you promised me
I must have lost my mind
I can't believe you're still inside my bed
I nearly walked away
I didn't think we'd still be rollin'
Dressing up in your love is a dangerous thing
My sexy super lover's got a real bad sting
Baby, didn't want no trouble, this is more than I can afford
I can't help myself, keep coming back for more
For more, can't help coming back for more
I'm in love, in love with a dream
My Valentine's gone and broke my wings
I'll see in time, I feel a bit weak
You better be right, 'cause you promised me
I must have lost my mind
I can't believe you're still inside my bed
I nearly walked away
I didn't think we'd still be rollin'
And as I watch you sleep in the dimlight
I close my eyes and pray
Another fluorescent night
Yeah, you and I
Late night lovers kickin' in the covers
Don't need no one but you and I
'Cause every day is a weekend
Forget what we were thinkin'
Another sweet fluorescent night
Ooh, oh, ooh, oh
I must have lost my mind
I can't believe you're still inside my bed
I nearly walked away
I didn't think we'd still be rollin'
And as I watch you sleep in the dimlight
I close my eyes and pray
Another fluorescent night
Yeah, you and I
09 Breakin' Up (03:46)

10 Don't Get It Twisted (03:37)
Don't get it twisted, don't get clever
This is the most craziest shit ever
Okay, this is the most craziest shit ever
Top of the charts, I wish I did feel better
So I take a two, this is before I knew
What to do? What to do? Ahh, what's that
Got a mood and I'm trippin' and my head is a block
Collecting all of the symptoms, about to call the Doc
Get ahold of yourself, you're acting odd girl
It's goin' on and on and on
What's the matter with me? I'm acting really odd
And I think you'd agree there must be something wrong
It's goin' on and on and on and on and on, uh-oh, uh-oh
What's the matter with me? I'm acting really odd
And I think you'd agree there must be something wrong
It's goin' on and on and on and on and on, uh-oh, uh-oh
Don't get it twisted, don't get clever
This is the most craziest shit ever, uh-oh, woah
Don't get it twisted, don't get clever
This is the most craziest shit ever, here we go, woah
Tick tock, I guess I'm late again
What are you suggesting there now, Gwen?
Don't you know better? What're you talking about
You know it's going to come at any point
Night time, flip-flop, this time, push my luck
He was really looking hot, anticipation building up
Space invaders, turn up all the faders, need a translator
''Pete, can you go and get a test''
Don't get it twisted, don't get clever
This is the most craziest shit ever, uh-oh, woah
Don't get it twisted, don't get clever
This is the most craziest shit ever, here we go, woah
Move that, move, move that
Move that, move, move that
Lip locked, making out again, no big deal
You always say that, but I'm not a mathematician
Twenty-eight days in a normal cycle
If I'm not mistaken, I think you might have made a goal
What's the matter with me? I'm acting really odd
And I think you'd agree there must be something wrong
It's goin' on and on and on and on and on
Don't get it twisted, don't get clever
This is the most craziest shit ever, uh-oh, woah
Don't get it twisted, don't get clever
This is the most craziest shit ever, here we go, woah
Here we go, woah
11 U Started It (03:08)
It's all your fault, but, I'm gonna try
I'm feelin' as bad about me as you are
You know I don't wanna be here
I'm tryin' to work out where these feelings are from
I don't know why I'm doin' this either
I know, you're right, you win
I don't want any part of it
You know what I'm like, I give in
Even though you started it
Last time I checked, had it under control
But now everything is unclear
Help me correct it, I know that I'm wrong
I don't know why I'm doin' this either
I know, you're right, you win
I don't want any part of it
You know what I'm like, I give in
Even though you started it
Oh well, baby, you were right
Oh, no, no, no, hush, hush, you were right
Forget about it baby, you were right
Yeah, we argue sometimes but please, not tonight
''Hey, you gon' be okay?
Don't worry about it
Sing''
I know, you're right, you win
I don't want any part of it
You know what I'm like, I give in
Even though you started it
I know, you're right, you win
I don't want any part of it
You know what I'm like, I give in
Even though you started it
Yeah
We argue sometimes but
Not tonight, tonight, tonight...
12 Wonderful Life (04:08)
I haven't thought of you for years, you know
Your memory seems to come and go
Our time meant so much to me
Now you can't be found
You were the first to want me, the first to love me, the first to need me
Who was the last to know you? The last to love you? The last to hold you
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Such a wonderful, wonderful life
I thought of you again today
Reminded me how, with time, I've changed
If you only knew what you gave to me
Now you can't be found
And you were the first I trusted, I learned what love is when we were just kids
When did you kiss the last time? How could you think you'd be better off
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Why'd you have to say goodbye
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Such a wonderful, wonderful life
Thank you for those special moments
You will always be here in my mind
And did you know you changed my life
I'm thankful for that time
I'm thankful for that time
I'm thankful for that time
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Why'd you have to say goodbye
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
I'm asking why but I'll never know
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Why'd you have to say goodbye
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Such a wonderful, wonderful life
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Such a wonderful, wonderful life

Di Vivis
Un disco inutilmente pretenzioso e plasticamente vuoto come il suo nuovo look da copertina: troppo patinato.
Non ce ne volere Gwen ma questa volta non ci hai trascinato troppo, il tuo lato più aggressivo sexy e spiritoso non è emerso al meglio.
