Music: Sarah Fimm

Sarah Fimm is a new discovery courtesy of the D.E.B.S. soundtrack. The song included is the wonderful Be Like Water from her 2002 album Perfect Dream. She is a little reminiscent of another Sarah, my all-time favourite Sarah McLachlan.

Note that the D.E.B.S. soundtrack contains the cleaned up and inferior version; Sarah's site contains the explicit version (as in the link above).

I love the lyrics of this song (before I read them I thought she was singing Don't chase girls!):


Be Like Water
words & music by Sarah Fimm

Don’t chase ghosts, don’t get too close,
don’t get caught, don’t get spent
don’t get bought
Don’t sell out, don’t get bent
don’t fuck your best friend
if everything is just the way it should be
why am I why am I still hungry
Be like Water
don’t be shy, don’t shut your eyes
don’t get high
Expand your Mind.
don’t keep in touch, don’t touch yourself
don’t ever want to be somebody else.
when everything is bad as it can be
never be never be angry
Be like Water
Must be the answer you want
I’m not your slave
I’m not the one who burnt you out
fucked you up and put you on
broke you down
ask someone else
to be that someone
I can’t be that someone who can
Be like Water
Why can’t I be the answer you want?
