Janis Joplin morreu há 40 anos
Janis Lyn Joplin (Port Arthur, 19 de Janeiro de 1943 — Los Angeles, 4 de Outubro de 1970) foi uma cantora e compositora norte americana. Tornou-se conhecida no final dos anos 60 como vocalista da banda Big Brother and the Holding Company, e posteriormente como artista a solo.
(...)Janis Joplin morreu de overdose de heroína em 4 de outubro de 1970, em Los Angeles, Califórnia, com apenas 27 anos. Foi cremada no cemitério-parque memorial de Westwood Village, em Westwood, Califórnia, e, numa cerimónia, as suas cinzas foram espalhadas pelo Oceano Pacífico.
O álbum Pearl foi lançado 6 meses após sua morte. O filme The Rose, com Bette Midler no papel de Janis Joplin, baseou-se em sua vida.
Ela hoje é lembrada por sua voz forte e marcante, bastante distante das influências folk mais comuns em sua época, e também pelos temas de dor e perda que escolhia para suas músicas.

Música dos anos 60 apropriada ao meu estado de espírito
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waiting for a train
And I's feeling nearly as faded as my jeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained,
It rode us all the way to New Orleans.
I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna,
I was playing soft while Bobby sang the blues.
Windshield wipers slapping time, I was holding Bobby's hand in mine,
We sang every song that driver knew.
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose,
Nothing don't mean nothing honey if it ain't free, now now.
And feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues,
You know feeling good was good enough for me,
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.
From the Kentucky coal mines to the California sun,
Hey, Bobby shared the secrets of my soul.
Through all kinds of weather, through everything we done,
Hey Bobby baby? kept me from the cold.
One day on mescaline("snow"),I let him slip away,
He's looking for that home and I hope he finds it,
But I'd trade all of my tomorrows for one single yesterday
To be holding Bobby's body next to mine.
Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose,
Nothing, that's all that Bobby left me, yeah,
But feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues,
Hey, feeling good was good enough for me, hmm hmm,
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.
La la la, la la la la, la la la, la la la la
La la la la la Bobby McGee.
La la la la la, la la la la la
La la la la la, Bobby McGee, la.
