Do you remember
Back in nineteen sixty-six?
Country Jesus, hillbilly blues,
That's where I learned my licks.
Oh, from coast to coast and line to line
In every county there,
I'm talkin' 'bout that outlaw X
That was cuttin' through the air.
Anywhere, y'all,
Everywhere, y'all,
I heard it, I heard it,
I heard it on the X.
We can all thank Doctor B
Who stepped across the line.
With lots of watts he took control,
The first one of it's kind.
So listen to your radio
Most each and every night
'cause if you don't I'm sure you won't
Get to feeling right.
Anywhere, y'all,
Everywhere, y'all,
I heard it, I heard it,
I heard it on the X.
- Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill & Frank Beard

ZZ Top è un gruppo musicale statunitense di blues rock formatosi a Houston, Texas, nel 1969. Il trio originale era composto da Billy Gibbons (chitarra e voce), Dusty Hill (basso e voce) e Frank Beard (batteria). Conosciuti per il loro stile distintivo che fonde blues, hard rock e country, ZZ Top ha raggiunto la fama internazionale negli anni '80 con album come "Eliminator" e singoli come "Legs" e "Sharp Dressed Man".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
