/

about

My first completely Vietnamese-language release, recorded in Melbourne, Australia, produced and mixed in Los Angeles by Rob Kleiner, with translated lyrics by Vietnamese poet Yen, and dialect coaching from Hanoi-based beatboxer TuanSS.

lyrics

ĐÓA HỒN SAY
Nàng bước đến
Nở trắng không gian
Ôi Điện tình mênh mang
Ôi đóa hồn say
Hãy lại gần đây
Ta sẽ làm nàng ngất ngây
Ta nghĩ về nàng trong mỗi cơn say
Ta khắc tên nàng ngang dọc trời mây
Chao ôi đóa hồn say

Gần thêm một bước
Tim như ngừng đập
Nàng đã thôi che đậy
Như hoa lửa rực cháy
Nhìn xoáy vào ta
Mặc kệ người ngoài xa
Kiêu hãnh này chẳng còn nghĩa lý
Trời đất ngoài kia cũng cuồng si
Ta biết ấy là đóa hồn say
Chao ôi đóa hồn say

DRUNKEN SOUL
She walks in
A bloom of white space
And love is everything
Oh, drunken soul

Come here
I will bring her ecstasy
I think about her when I’m high
I carve her name across the clouds
Oh, drunken soul

One step closer
One stopped heart
She’s undressing now
Like a burning flower

Look at me
Forget everyone else
Pride is meaningless
Heaven and earth have gone mad
I know, drunken soul
Oh, drunken soul
