New Cloudy Busey: “A Spring Fuck You”

At long last, Osaka’s Cloudy Busey is back with a new song and video. “A Spring Fuck You” breaks a bit from the last few songs this Osaka-based artist released to the world. Those songs set far-from-positive lyrics against pop-oriented backdrops. Now, similar words are being set against music that practically lurches, and at times seems close to turning into a sea shanty. Yet this also allows Cloudy Busey more space to experiment with, which makes details like the trailing echo on his vocals and those lonely cries deeper in the mix that much more affecting. Whereas earlier Cloudy Busey songs had you dancing while also holding back emotions, “A Spring Fuck You” hypnotizes you in to just wallowing in them. And it sounds really good. Watch the video above.
