Gazpacho - Emperor Bespoke (from Soyuz) Listen / Order now http://found.ee/GazpachoSoyuz Taken from the new album 'Soyuz' from the Norwegian Art-rock progressive outfit. Thomas Andersen: "The song emperor bespoke is based on “The Emperor’s New Clothes” by Hans Christian Andersen. I was in a meeting (I work in advertising), with a juice company who wanted to promote a new “organic” juice and we were an hour into the meeting when I asked them where the juice was made. None of them had any idea. "They bought cheap orange juice from wherever you get cheap orange juice and spent their budget on organic looking packaging coloured brown to look recycled and advertising to sell the brand. This was the inspiration for the song Emperor bespoke which is about the old Europe of master craftsmen and artists fading into the branded commercial world of today. Also how a brand is so divorced from the product that the product itself has ceased to matter and has become frozen in time as a Platonic idea of itself."

You’ll die of pleasure You’ll do whatever you can For the glory of the throne Drink up this poison Little old man - Here! It’s gone too far, dear You’ve see them all rise and fall And the mercury talks Go on see the wreckage Come on see the show You can count her ribs now Miss Hemlock´s pale as snow They’re jumping out of windows And drilling through the ground Don’t come around next Sunday Cause she’s not going to choose you Choose you She’s going to use you And cheaters’ get caught Swig of that poison Hear the ticking clock You’re slowing down, dear You thought you were going to win them all but you never made it home You were living in a war of no sides until She walked out the door one day without a sign until I find you’re changing as you try and try Tip your hat until you’re taking off your head and die Choose you, choose you Until I lose you No one gets hurt Choose you, choose you Want to choose you Emperor’s bespoke I saw you fall into shadow Starving on calorie shakes Hungry for maximum nothing Lost in the translation as you’re scrolling down a mountain made of words Dried up adolescence Where everyone decides to be ashamed Servant up until this day Crossed the line and favoured other lies Mountain of words dull your mind With their infinite worlds Meet the emperor, see what you learn I want you to be free Sail the seas Clouds of wunderbar Feed the disease Love is masterful Leaves you in peace Emperor’s bespoke emporium Drink up your poison
