about

Black Sea Dahu releases an extended live version of their latest single Glue. It has been recorded during a residency at Royal (Baden, Switzerland) in June 2021 as part of a live music video shoot.

Glue is a song that deals with memory loss. It was inspired by Janine’s visit to her grandmother’s nursing home. “My grandmother is living with dementia. It makes me sad that so much of her world is inaccessible to me. Glue was my attempt to understand what goes on in her head. In a way, her condition shelters her from the madness of this world.” Memory loss, however, isn’t just a condition of the old. She continues, “We’re out here ruining everything when we could be learning from the mistakes of previous generations. Will we ever stop to reevaluate our ideas and values? Can we undo the wrong turns that we’ve taken?”

lyrics

My grandmother, she forgot all about her past
History repeats itself and she has a blast
Eating cake and watching the snow fall
The sky fall
Just like when she was young

Now her thoughts are glue

And human race forgot all about the past
History repeats itself
While we wipe out elephants to the last
Do you really know if the world still exists when you die
It’s a conception of your brain

Our thoughts are glue
Let’s start anew
Her thoughts are glue (So let’s start anew)
Ooh
