Joy Of The 4th

by Bhopal's Flowers

Weirdo Shrine There is a deeper connection with hindustani pop culture hidden there, references to ancient mythology, and the joy of newborn life (singer Lionel Pezzano recently became a father). The music is multi layered and harder to pigeonhole than -again- a first glance might tell. There are pure pop songs, dramatic choirs, hazy psych janglers, atmospheric jams, and a subtle influence of “French” pop music that pops up every now and then. Enough to enjoy for open minded music fans therefore. Favorite track: Byrd Of The Tree.

Hold my hand Tiny little man Raise your head As much as you can Feel the air, Freedom is your land Fruits & bears Are living in your land You’re the Sun And I’m your kingdom Little son In a brand new world Colored mangos growing in the fluffy snow (Walking on rainbow) May the stars shine high wherever you go (Sheeps floating near the colored rainbow) Wherever you go Wherever you go

Babyphone 03:43
I hear the tone when I switch on the small button upon the babyphone You’re not alone I hear your mom singing a song on the babyphone I hear your voice gotta be strong it won’t be long on the babyphone Lie down, together we carry on Dream on, fly over Orion Cocoricooo ! Allumé – Wouuhou, qui est la ? Un petit poussin ! I hear you smiling when you’re dreaming the sun is shining on the babyphone I hear you crying when you’re starving the rain is falling on the babyphone J’entends ta voix de petit chat pas loin de moi dans le babyphone Les confidences de ton papa rien que pour toi dans le babyphone Lie down, together we carry on Dream on, fly over Orion La haut, dans la constellation d’Orion Demeure la lumière de Métatron Veille sur nos soixante–dix nations Protège nos âmes et leur ascension I hear your call to save the world my general, on the babyphone Des dinosaures aux transistors, la ruée vers l’or de mon babyphone Aux téléphones de la vallée du silicone : vive le babyphone ! Lie down, together we carry on Dream on, fly over Orion La haut, la constellation d’Orion Abrite la lumière de Métatron Veille sur nos princes et leurs nations Protège nos âmes et leur ascension

Boy now you're on the run it could be so fun, to keep running wild with us Keep smiling wide with us It's such fun Boy falling from heaven may you meet the Sun and keep shining bright with us Keep spread the life with us In the whole universe Boy now you're at the turn where got a gun it could be so fun that you run wild with us Mom gotta tell you son where we do belong, is at least million miles from us God leads you to the place where you got a race, for hundred years more than us Piece of the human race, driving at your pace remember the trace Of those before us Come and ride with us Let's get wild with us Let’s get contagious (In the whole universe) Boy now you're on the run it could be so fun, to keep running wild with us Keep singing high with us It's such fun Boy when you’ll be a man if you know the pain, Always keep in your brain, Rainbows come after rain Love is all in your hands

Pick up a walnut down the big black tree Nearby the river In its fresh green husk And deeply inhale its intense unique scent Close your eyes See the color’s dance Pick up a vinyl down the magic tree Colored swirling symphony Thanks to the fresh nut and its walnut tree To set me free Later the flowers of an ancient sun Will bloom your tracks All over your path Pick up a vinyl down the Christmas Tree And make it a single On every turntable

Alright 05:34
Honey, would you grab a pizza tonight ? And share it with me, on the beach at the moonlight ? We’ll share a few slice At the shore of our life We’ll say our goodbyes While the kids are alright Darling, would you please hold me in your arms ? While the stars are lighting the ground We’ll celebrate our life At the shore of the night We’ll say our goodbyes While the kids are alright The soul of the sea at the midnight mystery Witness of the good, witness of the sin What have we done ? What have we been ? Honey, would you mind to love me tonight ? And hold me one more time in your arms You’ll say I’m your wife At the shore of our life We’ll say our goodbyes While the kids are allright! Alright ! Alright ! The kids are alright! Alright, Alright.

about

Bright as childhood summer days, warm and comforting like a mom's lullaby, ‘’Joy Of The 4th’’ is made by melodic & psychedelic songs, as an ode to the 4th degree of the musical scale. Fulfilled with mellotron, harpsichord and leslie effect, this easy listening record merges joyful melodies from the sunshine pop era, spiced with the usual Hindustani taste from Bhopal's Flowers.

Dedicated to Noël Pezzano (Bhopal's Flowers' leader's son) born in 2021, the 10 tracks are fed by the hapiness of early age and shimerring colorfull instrumentations, like the sound of a baby toy.

A magical tool to celebrate joy, love and hapiness.
