"A" cover do "Fuck You" de Cee-Lo Green

É um dos mais badalados temas de Cee-Lo Green, aliás Thomas DeCarlo Callaway. Terceira faixa do álbum de 2010 The Lady Killer, bastante dançável, como sempre, dispensa mais apresentações. E falo dele, não para analisar o tema e a respectiva letra (trabalho que deixo ao visitante) mas sim para admirar esta autêntica cover em que uma aluna, provavelmente em alguma apresentação, a "canta" apenas por linguagem gestual. Uma performance digna do registo que deu origem a este vídeo, colocado há uma semana no YouTube. Tenho a certeza de que o próprio Cee-Lo, quando vir isto, lhe irá dar o devido valor.

A título de curiosidade, para leigos na matéria dalinguagem gestual, FSL significa French Sign Language e é, como o nome indica, a codificação (digamos) deste tipo de linguagem em Francês.

E agora todos nós ficámos a saber como "gestuar" um Fuck You! a alguma incauta vítima da nossa susceptibilidade...






I see you driving 'round town with the girl I love
and I'm like,
"FUCK YOU!"
Ooo,ooo,oooo
I guess the change in my pocket wasn't enough
I'm like,
"FUCK YOU!
And fuck her too."
I said,
"If I was richer, I'd still be with ya"
Ha, now ain't that some shit?
(Ain't that some shit?)
And although there's pain in my chest
I still wish you the best
With a...
"FUCK YOU!"
Ooo,ooo,ooo

Yeah I'm sorry,
I can't afford a Ferrari,
But that don't mean I can't get you there.
I guess he's an Xbox and I'm more Atari,
But the way you play your game ain't fair.
I pity the fool
That falls in love with you
(Oh shit she's a gold-digger)
Well

Oooooooooh

Beg and steal and lie and cheat.
Trying to keep ya,
