Ikr? I'm not a huge fan of some of the oldest stuff but these are pristine and sublime. I do love the fact that the classic Bird style of having well put together lyrics with also subtle or not so subtle meaning behind them still is present.
As time goes by, I am increasingly grateful to be alive at the same time as yourself, Mr. Bird. Not only is your music a glimpse of what a perfect universe would look like, but also the visuals in your recent videos are incredibly beautiful.
Oh I can't get over this moon And all creatures under the sun Move through their days in a state of oblivion Stars don't owe you anything Don't give a damn about your nations Fear the slightest obligation I mean, listen What if the world goes spinning off its axis? And what if the moon begins to wane before it waxes? Wrapped in darkness Take my hand Through all the chambers of the underland Like this penny on the railroad track If you go too far, you know you can't go back I've never been here before Deep inside Earth's molten core Oh no need for clothes or for eyes to see So find yourself a pair of ears Gonna be down here for many years Just listen out for that subterranean river of tears Not exactly hell More like a nocturnal paradise Not exactly heaven either I'd say 'bout half as nice We're at the end now You've run aground And all the sound waves have gone underground There's a threshold between the here and hereafter To cross a river, you know you gotta take a raft there Stars don't owe you anything Don't give a damn about your nations Feel the slightest obligation Oh I can't get over this moon now Oh I can't get over this moon
I can’t wait! I’ve been listening to Atomized on repeat. 🙌🏽 ETA: this song is incredible! I love the direction Bird has been going in lately. Can’t wait for the full album.
Such an artistry and carefree vibes. This gives me full of hope, positivity and confidence for me to continue the work and challenges in a journey even if it’s a quarter-life crisis now.
Wowy, this is wonderful. This phase of music you're in is so real and exciting and unique. I can't wait to see this and Atomized when you come to the Ryman. Thank you for bringing us these songs during a particularly difficult time (at least for myself)
never stop creating, please. thanks for sharing your brilliance, it's been a literal lifeline for me in some pretty dark times. can't wait to see you at The Ryman this summer!
This should be considered a mind altering substance. Nice sound Mr. Bird! I haven't had mj for a couple of years, but I'd love to listen to this while under the influence. Fantastic without it, but I bet it's at another level with a bit of the herb.
★ LYRICS: ★ Oh I can’t get over this moon And all creatures under the sun Moving through their days in a state of oblivion Stars don’t owe you anything Don’t give a damn about your nations Feel the slightest obligation I mean listen What if the world was spinning off it axis? And what if the moon begins to wane before it waxes? Wrapped in darkness Take my hand Through all the chambers of the underland Like a penny on the railroad track If you go too far you know you can’t go back Oh I’ve never been here before Deep inside earth’s molten core No need for clothes or for eyes to see So find yourself a pair of ears Gonna be down here for many years Just listen out for that subterraneans river of tears Not exactly heaven More like a nocturnal paradise Not exactly hell either I’d say just bout half as nice Stars don’t owe you anything Don’t give a damn about your nations Feel the slightest obligation Oh I can’t get over this moon
