Today Glass Candy released a video for their track “Beautiful Object“, which appears on the new Italians Do It Better compilation After Dark 2. Shot on film by Martin D’ Argensio, and with editing by Alberto Rossini, the video features the band working on “Beautiful Object” at their demo studio in Montreal, Quebec. We are told that this is from the Body Work sessions, and it looks like Ida and Johnny were in Portland this past April recording the new album…In tour news, Glass Candy and Chromatics continue their European tour, and according to the recent post at Italians Do It Better, Ida No is no longer on crutches, which means the Glass Candy dance party can dance on! For those with literary inclinations, the lyrics to the track follow the video…
“Beautiful Object” Lyrics:
In Love’s Golden Ocean
No Emotion
Ooh
Fake A Smile For Charity
Cry In Trauma For The Drama
Oh No
Real Love A Golden Rarity
Beautiful Object
Ooh
I Hang Them From The Walls & Ceiling
What More Can I Do
I Want To Put My Hands Deep Into Feeling
Hands Only Get So Far
Depth For Me Is Just A Possibility
& All My Misguided Desire
Freezes Me Deep With Pent Up Hostility
What’s The Meaning Of The Mask
You Can’t Be Asked
Oh No
Is Life A Social Fiction
Not To See But Be Seen
Oh Oh
Now That’s A Ghost’s Ambition
Beautiful Object
Ooh
As If A Pretty Face Is So Revealing
Hey What Can I Do
If What I’ve Got Isn’t As Appealing
Beautiful Object
Ooh
Soul Is Sold To Portray A Perfection
A Beautiful Object True
It’s Just A Parody Of A Person
