JOSÉ GONZÁLEZ – PAJARITO Neue Single – out now!

Der schwedisch-argentinische Songwriter José González hat heute eine neue Single veröffentlicht: einen unbeschwerten, spanischsprachigen Titel namens „Pajarito“.

Der Song, den er mit Blick auf seine Kinder geschrieben hat, verbindet die zarten Klänge seiner Akustikgitarre mit hellen, verspielten Melodien.

Er sagt: “Now and then I want to write songs that are timeless, simple, and carefree. Pajarito is about growing up, learning things, and eventually becoming independent. As usual, there’s also an existential undertone—the meaning of life is something that can emerge gradually as one gets to know the world, more as something you discover for yourself and not necessarily something dictated from above. This one is inspired by songs like “59th Street Bridge Song” (Simon & Garfunkel) and “Río” (Silvio Rodríguez). But also by all the children’s songs that have become part of our everyday life in recent years (Alice Tegnér, Georg Riedel, María Elena Walsh). This is the follow-up to Lilla Gumman (Lilla G), which I wrote when I was thinking of Laura. Of course I had to write a song dedicated to Mateo as well!”

Zum Video erläutert er: “I’ve been curious about technology and how it has led humanity to where we are. Understanding the huge potential and unforeseeable implications of artificial intelligence, I felt curious to explore current tools in a playful and simple way for this light-hearted song.
We started prompting Sora and VEO in September with lines like “A little bird and its parent by the Swedish archipelago, late summer. Clumsy, cute, adorable”. After a chat with video maker Jonny Sanders we decided to make it a concept video, so we let the models come up with a plot and video-prompts. We chose the bullfinch because of its nice colors.”

Das Cover-Artwork der Single ist von schwedischer Volkskunst inspiriert – Allmoge und dem Dala-Pferd, der hier zum „Dala-Vogel“ wird – und von Hannele Fernström gemalt, von Robert Samsonovitz gestaltet wurde.
José arbeitet derzeit im Studio an neuem Material für sein fünftes Studioalbum, dem ersten, das ausschließlich Original-Kompositionen erhält, seit seinem 2021er Werk „Local Valley“.
