What if birds aren't just birds? The new Baffo d'Oro single takes an ironic and critical look at fake news and conspiracy theories, with a catchy late summer guitar riff and noisy guitars in the chorus.

Birds Aren't Real

Breakfast

song about Allen Ginsberg

soundclips from AG reading parts of  his poem Howl

Drunken Dumbshow  

Holy, holy, we're holy
This land of prayer and restraint 
Weapon born from society 
An insect stuck in the paint 
Hospital laugh with appended smile
True lust to fake the faint
A faint hope that's close to nothing at all
But it's something for the people who ain't 

Beat down, strung out, colorful, crazy
The weight of the world is love
In the end, it is enough
In the end, it has to be enough 
Broken mother, father 
Like the rest of us fallen ones
On the streets we Howl and run

Kaddish, death convention 
Now he's the King of May
The long hair of Adam
His cosmic beard at play
To ease the pain of living
The work will set you free
That was the message he breathed 
The politics of ecstasy 

Beat down, strung out, colorful, crazy
The weight of the world is love
In the end, it is enough
In the end, it has to be enough 
Broken mother, father 
Like the rest of us fallen ones
On the streets we Howl and run

Poet, pilgrim, sacrilege 
Buddhist, lover, anarchist 
5 to 1, he is on their list 
Acid-dropping dreamer, God's pharmacist 
All else is
Drunken dumbshow







Drunken Dumbshow

Echoes roar in the chilling night
The spirit fights in eternal light
Blood-soaked past will never die
Hear the clansman’s battle cry

Ghost of the clansman

Original by David Bowie 1974

冒頭のメッセージ。「これは日本のアーティスト、The Boyへのメッセージです。本当にありがとうございます。これからも頑張ってください。」

Lyrics

You are the most able
Music for us
Our saviour

The Boy
Showing us real man
Doing it for the clan
We all have problems
We all have pain
You feel us
We're with you
Keep showing that way

Your music man, heals
With minds lost in fields
You align with musical zeal
NIN like, but The Boy
Original joy
Sing that keyboard toy
Sort out us men like a boy

Forever Boy

The Boy

An experimental electronic techno track, hints of ambience and glitch.

I couldn't get this song out of my head for quite some time now, finding myself humming and whistling, and singing it again and over again. And so I thought I'd share it with you :).

Guitar by Gideon. We hope you'll enjoy!

Written by Italian singer-songwriter and musician Pino Daniele in 1979  "Je so pazzo" (Io sono pazzo /I'm crazy) is a song about freedom, civil rights and - disobedience,  And about "Masianello" (aka Tommaso Aniello) the leader of the Neapolitan Revolt against the Habsburg rule (and their unjust taxes) in the kingdom of Naples.

lyrics

Je so’ pazzo, je so’ pazzo
e vogl’essere chi vogl’io 
ascite fore d’a casa mia.

Je so’ pazzo je so’ pazzo
c’ho il popolo che mi aspetta 
e scusate vado di fretta

non mi date sempre ragione
io lo so che sono un errore
nella vita voglio vivere almeno un giorno da leone
e lo Stato questa volta non mi deve condannare
pecché so’ pazzo, je so’ pazzo
ed oggi voglio parlare.

Je so’ pazzo, je so’ pazzo
si se ‘ntosta ‘a nervatura 
metto tutti ‘nfaccia ‘o muro.

Je so’ pazzo, je so’ pazzo
e chi dice che Masaniello poi negro non sia più bello?
E non sono menomato sono pure diplomato
e la faccia nera l’ho dipinta per essere notato.

Masaniello è crisciuto
Masaniello è turnato.

Je so’ pazzo, je so’ pazzo
nun nce scassate ‘o cazzo!



English

II’m crazy, I’m crazy
and I wanna be who I wanna be,
get out of my house.

I’m crazy, I’m crazy
I got the people waiting for me
and so excuse me, I’m in a rush

And don’t just tell me that I’m right
I know I’m a mistake
but I want to live at least one day as a lion
and this time the State can’t condemn me
because I’m crazy, I’m crazy
and today I’m gonna speak up.

I’m crazy, I’m crazy
if my nerves get tense
I’ll push everyone’s face into the wall.

I’m crazy, I’m crazy
and who says that Masaniello
isn’t more handsome as a black man?
I’m not crippled, I even got a degree
and I painted my face black just to be noticed more

Masaniello has grown up, 
Masaniello is back

I am crazy, I am crazy
so don’t fuck with me!

Je so' pazzo (Pino Daniele - Giddy & Rob Jam)

✍️ LYRICS ✍️

All this time
I’m running and hiding, keeping it all inside
Can’t express myself
Overwhelmed as your teardrops swell
I’d give it all just to hold you in my arms
Just to hold you, yeah

Look at what I’ve lost, baby
Trail of blood I’m leaving
Running from the law lately
But I ain’t repeating
Could’ve gone my way but
Wouldn’t have a heartbeat
What was I afraid of
When the times got hard
Singing

All this time
I’m running and hiding, keeping it all inside
Can’t express myself
Overwhelmed as your teardrops swell
I’d give it all just to hold you in my arms
Just to hold you, yeah

Dodging all them bombs daily
Damning all my demons
Feeling all my flaws fading
Ready for redeeming
Could’ve gone astray but
Then I met that concrete
Nearly made a crater
Now the dust is gone
Singing

All this time
I’m running and hiding, keeping it all inside
Can’t express myself
Overwhelmed as your teardrops swell
I’d give it all just to hold you in my arms
Just to hold you, yeah

(All this time)
(I’m running and hiding, keeping it all inside)
(Can’t express myself)
(Overwhelmed as your teardrops swell)

All this time
I’m running and hiding, keeping it all inside
Can’t express myself
Overwhelmed as your teardrops swell
I’d give it all just to hold you in my arms
Just to hold you

All This Time (Acoustic)

1-He stepped out of glory,
And put on the lowly,
And life’s very Author
A creature became.
Despised and forsaken,
Afflicted with sorrow,
From infinite splendor,
To the likeness of shame.

2-He chose to be humbled,
He chose limitation,
He chose to be finite,
He chose to be man.
God’s unfathomed purpose
Found substance in Jesus!
A two-natured being—
The unique God-man.

3-His own shell was broken
Releasing His glory,
This life impartation
Produced many grains.
The Firstborn rejoices
With His many brothers—
An incorporation
Divine and human!

4-We cannot but love Him!
Our lovely Forerunner;
His shame was our vict’ry,
His anguish our joy.
The children of judgment
He brought into glory,
The millions of God-men
Forever rejoice!

Dejo El Su Gloria (G)

1.Dejo El Su glo       -    ria
Em
Fué manso y humilde
                 Cmaj7/9 – Bm -  Am7
Se hizo criatura
                  D7
Y El la vida creo.
                    Cmaj7/9  D7  Em
Sufrió el abandono
                     G
Dolor, pena y burla
                 Cmaj7/9 – Bm -  Am7
De gloria infinita
       D7        G  
A sufrir desdén.
 
 2-Llego a ser humilde
Y a estar limitado
Se hizo finito y es
Un hombre en verdad.
 
En Cristo el plan de Dios
Se hizo tangible
Dos naturalezas
El Dios-hombre ser.
 
3-Liberó Su gloria,
Nos impartió vida
Y los muchos granos,
El logro producir.
 
Se goza El primero
Con sus muchos hermanos,
Lo humano y divino
En Él se incorporaron.
 
4-Por tanto, hay que Amarte
Pionero precioso
Son nuestra victoria hoy
Su pena y dolor.
 
A hijos de juicio
Hoy lleva a la gloria
Los hombres humildes
Se gozan con El.

No AI here... If you want proof hit me up and I can remote screen share the proof of the 10's of thousands of hours it takes to make The Beautiful Dark... Just incase anyone has any mad ideas! Fuck AI

I waited a whole year for the Sun to move along and rise behind that little tree. It happened today on 19th May 2025. Just off to the right there are raging gorse fires threatening homes that fire fighters are struggling to put out for nearly 20 hours I believe.. 2 hours after this photo it rained and its full cloud cover... Thanks Universe
