Everybody Dies

Everybody Dies is the sixth song in English from ”Uncle Pop”,
 released October 7th, 2022.

When in my early twenties, I met this old man at the bar ”Gröne Jägaren” in Stockholm, standing by the roulette, every now and then crying out loud ”everbody dies!”. I guess it must have made an impression on me, as I still remember it, and one day I had this song in my head, so cheers to him! I guess that he would probably be in his nineties now, if he has survived his heavy drinking, but if not I’ll at least give him that he was right. 😎

The album artwork shows the Norwegian fjord ”Ersfjordbotn”. Like all other album photos it is shot by Farbror Pop himself.

World on Fire

World on Fire is the fifth song in English from ”Uncle Pop”,
released March 11th, 2022.

We’ve been aware of the greenhouse effect for a long time now, and time is running out for taking the necessary actions. At that point in time, we instead see the biggest war in Europe since WWII. Let’s hope this will be the turning point where we come together and put out that fire, saving the world for future generations!

The album artwork shows a partial solar eclipse, like an eye in the sky. Like all other album photos it is shot by Farbror Pop himself.

Insomnia

Insomnia is the fourth song in English from ”Uncle Pop”,
released September 17th, 2021.

You know that feeling where you are dead tired, you might be half asleep, but you just won’t come to rest? You might think you hear a strange sound, something is itching, your legs are restless or your mind won’t stop spinning.

”The night is dark
and I’m wide awake
My restless legs
kicking at the bed
My eyes won’t close
Hey, what’s that sound?
Ghosts are haunting
my restless mind”

Then, finally, the morning comes and still dead tired you embrace the chance to get out of that bed, that state of insomnia. Oh, the smell of coffee in the morning! And those first rays of light!

”The morning comes
with the morning light
like a saviour

A fresh new day
chase the ghosts away
– what a blessing”

The album artwork is from Lofoten, Norway. Looking carefully, you can barely see some ”ghosts” (aka ”storm birds”) in the lightest part.
Like all other album photos it is shot by Farbror Pop himself.

Living

Living is the third song in English from ”Uncle Pop”,
released July 9th, 2021.

Living is a song about some characters I have met throughout life,
who all have in common that they seemed to be trapped in something they really disliked.
It might be a bad relation or a job, where they are ”dying”,
rather than leave and aim for a better life.

”Why spend your life on things you hate?
Spend it on the things you love.”

The album artwork is a photo from Göteborg, Sweden,
and like all other album photos it is shot by Farbror Pop himself.
