I NEED TO WAKE UP - MELISSA ETHERIDGE
Melissa Etheridge’s performance of Academy Award-winning “I Need to Wake Up” from equally Oscar-adorned documentary “An Inconvenient Truth” lent the cachet of 25.5 million pairs of captivated eyes. With such exposure, how could you not make a bid for radio play? Amid mountain-climbing power chords and an inspirational chorus calling for change (”I am throwing off the carelessness of youth/To listen to an inconvenient truth/I need to move, to wake up, to change, to speak out”), Etheridge sings with symbolic conviction.
