in the silence of the evening I could never guess that I was gonna be surprised the feast was getting boring and I was communicating through the 'northern lights' you took me by surprise with your moves and the look in your eyes can't you see? I am a fool for you the harmonics of your movement could really match your manners, your unparalleled wit golden lady, won't you tell me, can we steal some golden moments outside this scene? never know when is the right time to kiss your lips under the moonlight can't you see? I really care for you bring me, bring me my favorite wine bring me, bring me the garment that shines and the girl with the golden hair (who) won't stay much but she won't leave my head in the silence of the evening I could never guess that I was gonna be surprised the feast was getting boring and I was communicating through the 'northern lights' I never know when is the right time to kiss your lips under the pale moonlight I think I'm stuck inside a maze babe, can't you see? I am in love with you bring me, bring me my favorite wine bring me, bring me the garment that shines and the girl with the golden hair won't say much but she won't leave my head bring me, bring me my favorite wine bring me, bring me the garment that shines and the girl with the golden hair (who) won't stay much but she won't leave my head

come, wayward baby and sit by my bed instead of standing on my doorstep in defense I know you don't want me I can see it in your eyes is your love seasonal or is it my mind? and I know I'm an asshole with something to prove a glorious leap from the womb to the tomb you're still my sister, my favorite one please, don't destroy what I've loved in you hear, my beloved one don't take drugs to survive me too, I'm stoned while I'm writing these lines and I know you're gonna leave me I can see it in your eyes I'm just a mess with a fucked-up life and I know I'm an asshole, you're a bit of an asshole, too seeking acceptance from anyone but you you shout you're not a robot, there's a button on me and it's you who decides when to flick the switch I never wanted to be your third man the things that you're saying I completely understand but there's something inside me unsatisfied 'cause when I met you it was love at first sight and I know I'm an asshole, as vain as can be not really caring for anyone but me don't lose your patience, don't turn your evil eye here is a song that's gonna make you smile (?)

Silhouette 03:28
light as a feather against stormy weather is there a chance for you, beautiful son? dress like a monkey and act like a junkie what matters the most is to try to have some fun you cry in your pillow, like a weeping willow those were the days that life had begun in love with your sadness, impervious to madness you have discovered the age of a new sun I saw your silhouette in the dead of night when night comes creeping, you can't help believing the signs light as a feather against stormy weather is there a chance for you, beautiful one? forget the maybes, beware of the babies what you have forgotten is trying to have some fun I saw your silhouette in the dead of the night when night comes creeping, you can't help believing the signs and if you have to go, go with a smile weaving goodbye to the crowd that waits for the king

Happiness 01:42
you're a star you're a fairy, you're a cat you're as sweet as a guardian angel I know I hurt you really bad there's a devil deep inside of me so, won't you help me fight it back? baby, sometimes I feel so alone

about

Six years after Love Songs for Instant Success, Prins Obi presents a 5-track sequel EP entitled Love Tunes for Instant Success:

My favourite love songs are those captured somewhere between ecstasy and sadness, rejection and acceptance, excitement and frustration... That's what I tried to do with this (very) personal EP, using only essential music elements, dismantling any kind of persona and putting in the foreground personal experiences/emotions and their effortless transformation into melodies and lyrics.
Love & Mercy
Prins Obi

The EP is available for free download on Inner Ear’s Bandcamp page and in a few days it will also be released on cassette, in very limited copies, like the ones we used to make for loved ones.
