about

Answering an enquiry about new single ‘Perhosia’, Ocelot give a simple explanation;“‘Perhosia’ is a short song about counting butterflies (perhosia). There seems to be four butterflies. The song is also about other things” ‘Perhosia’ finds Ocelot honing the songwriting into something more direct, while the sound and execution of the single delivers the band’s most ‘pop’ offering yet. The video that accompanies ‘Perhosia’ has an aesthetic that Wes Anderson would approve of – watch carefully – more is happening than you think.

Ocelot expands on the track themes – “Perhosia is a dreamy passage transitioning from one world to another, from one consciousness to another, from one dream to another, or perhaps in the context of a future album, from one song to another. ‘Perhosia’ is a song both innocent and eerie. At first glance the dreamy butterflies are beautiful, but when you look closer, you see something else. Maybe it is a nightmare after all?” Ocelot will navigate through 2020 with a series of single releases prior to a debut album this year.

Perhosia (lyrics)

Lasken perhosia sun unessa
Näen perhosia sun hiuksilla
Lasken perhosia sun hiuksista
Kiiltää silmiäsun unessa
Katson perhosia mansikkapellolla
Näin perhosia mun unessa
Laskin perhosiayks’, kaks’, kol’, neljä
Näen perhosia mun unessa
Kiiltää silmiäsun unessa
