about

'BeeS' evokes the physical effects of desire and love at its earliest stage: the image of honey-making insects, symbol of active fertility, is also a play in words with the french word 'bises' (kiss)

"Ourida returns to the piano for the hypnotically vampy Bees" (New york music daily by Delarue)

lyrics

Smoke is doing curves in the night
Slowly honey drives in the hive
As little glass of red on the stairs
As autumn blows insane in the air

It’s like invisible, very thick
Or rounded like a ball on a stick
Pulsing into the dark, is it real?
As an electric heart, I can feel

I don’t know where it goes, do you know?
I don’t know if it shines or it blows
I want the blood of it for the soul
And wonder if it climbs or it falls

Now I just follow it with my hand
The sparkling side of you understand
That we are all alone in this night
Playing with giant wheels of the time

Now you follow it too with your hand
So high you’re almost blue at the end
Shaking and shaking deep in the womb
So easy to get lost in this song

We don’t know where it goes, do we know?
We don’t know if it clings or it grows
We want the blood of it for the soul
No matter if it climbs or it falls
