Geocache Description:




What's Up was the only hit song for the band 4 Non Blondes. It was written by Linda Perry. It appeared on their debut album Bigger, Better, Faster, More! It topped out at #14 on the US charts, but reached #1 in Germany and Ireland. It reached #2 in Australia, England and Italy. It was named the #94 best one hit wonder by VH1.

It's interesting to note the phrase, "What's Up" never appears in the song. The chorus uses, "What's Going On", but the band feared this might be confused with the Marvin Gaye song and stuck with the title, "What's Up". The band had a rocky history right from the beginning. The day of their first practice was the day of the big 1989 earthquake in San Francisco. They fired their drummer for excesive drug use before the first album was released, and then had a change at guitar shortly after it was recorded. Their 2nd album was recorded but not released when Linda Perry left the band and went solo. She has also had a lot of success as a producer, producing albums for Alicia Keys, Pink, Christina Aguilera, and Kelly Clarkson.
