Helado Negro è tornato, finalmente e pianissimo, con un nuovo singolo e la promessa di un album alla fine di settembre che si chiamerà “Private Energy”. Runaround mi illumina al centro, come quei lampadari bassi sopra ai tavoli da biliardo.
A proposito della canzone a The Fader dice questo: “It is inspired by the words of a robot in a Isaac Asimov short story. The robot finds itself in conflict with its internal rules: 1. Obey orders, 2. Don’t hurt yourself. The robot eventually gets fixed by an engineer but for that brief moment, it’s stuck. This line from the story describes the feeling of trying to find meaning and understanding in our troubled world: ‘No love can cut our knife in two. I think the ‘knife’ is us; me, my own hardened self with love within. It’s made of the strongest, sharpest love combined with a soft love, maybe a selfish, rootless love which could never cut my knife in two.”
