Kurt Vile: Like Exploding Stones +FRISSÍTÉS: Hey Like A Child – újabb dal a (watch my moves) album elé

A 42 éves dalnok (watch my moves) című új albuma április 15-én jelenik meg Rob Schnapf társproduceri segédletével és olyan további közreműködőkkel, mint Cate Le Bon, a Warpaint-doboslány Stella Mozgawa, a szintén ütőhangszeres Sarah Jones és a Chastity Belt csajzenekar tagjai. A lemez a saját szerzemények mellett Bruce Springsteen egy kilencvenes években kiadott dalának, a Wages Of Sinnek az átiratát is tartalmazza, és a beharangozóként ma közzétett Like Exploding Stones című hét és fél perces szám Sean Dunne rendezővel forgatott klipjének első fele is Springsteen klasszikus 1993-as Streets Of Philadelphia videóját idézi meg (a második felében pedig a fekete szaxofonos James Stewart is feltűnik a Sun Ra Arkestra tagságából).

Got me goin’… 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2…
Got me goin’ „woo”…

Pain ricochet in my brain like exploding stones
Thoughts runnin’ round in my cranium like pinball machine-a-mania
Dreamin’ of a time when everything rhymed and I was cool, calm and collected
And all my heroes dropped by just to hear me play

Thoughts become pictures, become movies in my mind
Welcome to the KV horror drive in movie marathon
But I’m just kiddin’ and I’m just playin’
And this is just the way that I’m makin’ a living
Everyday… In my mind and in real life too

Goin’ „woo”
Singin’ „yeah”
Goin’ „woo”
Singin’ „yeah”

Goin’ „woo”
Singin’ „yeah”
Goin’ „woo”
Singin’ „yeah”

Takin’ off now…
Moog makin’ noise now…

Pain ricochet in my brain like exploding stones

And guitars feedin’ back now…
Feedback massaging my cranium

Painful calculations bruise my brain in the pouring rain
Baby red maples growin’ in the hedges
Sometimes the silver linings come in brown and red
So to see with your eyes you gotta turn your head to the light
You gotta see with your eyes to look at what’s outta sight

Outta sight

Sight

Pain ricochet in my brain like exploding stones
Pain ricochet in my brain like exploding stones

FRISSÍTÉS: március elején az album második beharangozó dala is megérkezett Hey Like A Child címmel!

Yo, lemonade, my girl, what it is?
Gleamin’ in the sun you’re the one, you’re the one, you’re the one
Hey like a child you walked into my life
Hey like a mild high I’m feelin fine

Feelin’ on the climb till I slide back down
From out of the sun you spun me around and around
Hey like a child you waltzed into my life
Hey like a mild high, I’m feelin’ fine

In a dream I drew my blueprint
Thought I’d better get a load of the way that I do this

In the mornin’ time the glorious spring
Feel I got a handle on everything
Wait for the words to form on the line

Hey like a mild high I’m feelin fine
Hey like a child you shine into my life
Hey when I’m flyin I’m high as hell on love

In a dream I drew my blueprint
Thought I’d better get a load of the way that I do this

Feelin’ on the climb till I slide back down
From out of the maze you spun me the world back around
Yo, lemonade, my girl, what it is?
Reach for your hand through the sun, through the sun, through the sun

Hey like a ray you shine into my life
Hey like a cure for all things under the sun
In a dream I drew my blueprint
And it was you on every page that I drew there

Hey like a ray you shine into my life
Hey like a cure for all things under the sun
In a dream I drew my blueprint
And it was you on every page that I drew there
