Indeed, two of the tracks here, \"You Will Always Love Me\" and \"There's Something Going On,\" were recorded straight to four-track. Jones' voice echoes out of lyrical valleys. \"Take Me Back\" is a horrific tale of an obsessive relationship, with lyrics about eyeballs scratched with rusty nails and a creepy chant of \"dead, dead, dead\" ad infinitum. It's a conceit that starts with the very first track, \"Bad Old Man,\" where Jones sings of wife-beaters and a drowning in a duck pond. Musically, the album is more of a lean toward the baroque than Ugly Beautiful. One might describe it as stark, disturbed chamber pop. Beautiful melodies appear quite majestically out of Jones' psychological studies. \"It's Not Funny Anymore\" is bittersweet and touching, with Jones reaching for the album's emotional core over weeping, organic keyboards.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"There's Something Going On\" is the tender conclusion, suggesting that Jones knows there's a better way of life than obsession and self-torture. There's Something Going On is definitely Baby Bird's most subtle album, and it's a fascinating listen from start to finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThere's Something Going On\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e is available as a limited numbered edition of 750 copies on turquoise vinyl and contains an insert.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003eThe small print:\u003cbr\u003e• Due to rights restrictions, this item is only available for customers in Europe.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Babybird","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64679679721849,"sku":"2J3643","price":27.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0791\/4002\/8691\/files\/MOVLP4133_1LP-SC_Mockup.webp?v=1790087798","url":"https:\/\/www.musiconvinyl.com\/products\/babybird-theres-something-going-on-turquoise-vinyl","provider":"Music On Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
