Happy Birthday Linda Evangelista: Vol. 3 For The Cool In You

Photo by Peter Lindbergh

So much has happened since last year. From gracing the cover of British Vogue, closing for Fendi, and even announcing a book with Steven Meisel, Linda Evangelista’s legendary impact on the world of fashion is always felt. You know, grow up watching all these highlights, hearing all these stories of great people who changed our world, and it kind of makes you sad because you weren’t there to see it, so to see Linda on the cover of Vogue or closing for a brand like Fendi means a lot and I feel so fortunate to be able see the greatness of Linda Evangelista.

There aren’t enough superlatives or honors I can throw her way, or kind words I can say. The world is that much brighter, creative, and fun because of Linda Evangelista. You’re truly something special, always iconic, and genuine gift to the world. Happy Birthday Linda Evangelista. Always wishing you infinite happiness and love.

Lady, lady, lady
For the rest of our lives, yeah
Can you take forever ’til the end of our time?
Lady, lady, say you’ll be mine
Always, my lady
For the rest of our lives

You told me everything would be cool
Said I wouldn’t always feel blue
How come I feel like a wreck
How come the skies are all gray
How come my eyes are all red
Why am I alone in bed

You told me everything would be fine
Why am I losing my mind
How come I feel like a fool
Why do I keep losing you
Why do I love in despair
When you’re not there

It’s the way that you hold me
And the way that you kiss me tenderly
I could never feel lonely
You give me just what I need

(Good lovin’)
Always what you give to me
(Good lovin’)
Your love’s got a hold on me
(Good lovin’)
Hey hey, and I know we’ll love forever
Together we’ll be

Please tell me where
Where is my love
Tell me where
Where is the girl of my dreams for me
Oh, where is my love for me. Me, me
Me, eee, eee, eee, eee

You know you’re truly somethin’ special
And I’ll keep you right here
In my heart baby, and you know I’m sincere
You know you’re truly somethin’ special and I’ll keep you right here

You know you’re truly somethin’ special
And I’ll keep you right here
In my heart baby, and you know I’m sincere
You know you’re truly somethin’ special and I’ll keep you right here

The reason why I smile
When I
When I wake up

And also the reason
Why I dream
(Reason why I dream)
My love
My joy
My everything

I would engage the world as my ally
I would engage the world
Against jealous fear and bitter ambition
That only aspires to the done and the dead

I went down to the sea
Don’t care if you don’t believe me
It spoke to me about my life
It spoke with the voice of reason
It told me to risk it all with the chance of nothing returned

Isn’t that the task of love?
Isn’t that the challenge of love today?

Please, will an angel come over to hold up my shoulders
And help me back on my feet?
Or put your money in the payphone
Tell them you’re running
Blowing up in a big way
Putting on make-up
Changing your name
Now you’re standing in the shadows
Or for whomever is paying
Sonny, you’re a big shot now
Sonny, when you come down, how you gonna count?
