Love this song from Kyrgyzstan country

[@anacigarro5402]

Control Z Netflix Show brought me here ♥

[@stangkiller1789]

Welcome! Alex doesn't mess around. Hope you enjoy!

[@debbieglasco8516]

Alex is amazing. Love everything he creates!

[@stangkiller1789]

I can confirm, Alex took care of businesses.

[@ShatteredDiscoBall]

Saw him open for Angel Olsen last night and it was surely one of the most bizarre experiences. I'd equate it to making eye contact with a stranger for too long but you don't want to look away until they do. I enjoyed it bunches tho~

[@ZoeKom-off]

ShatteredDiscoBall that is such a precise description!

[@tlysergicaciddiethylamide5792]

i guess you've hearD their Duet by now? Stranger'S kiSS anD watch the video...

[@kaleidpscopicmind4268]

I can't stop listening to this song and can't take my eyes of this clip. This is mesmerizing.

[@cm5891]

I saw him live for this tour. Opened for foxygen. He was absolutely phenomenal and it had a profound impact on me.

[@zamie5723]

So so good. The ending is so good. Alex has a way of building up a song to haunting perfection.

[@jsequine927]

The lofty synths at 2:41 after such a brooding, restrained opening is incredibly beautiful. Seeing him in a couple of weeks, hopefully he's as quirky and passionate live as people seems to say.

[@DrevorReal]

So, was he?

[@falloulo98]

.

[@ohnoyoyo]

yes? or yes?

[@i345v8h]

His voice is magnetically haunting.

[@nocre2948]

Oh my God. This outro is just perfect

[@tuanjim799]

This song has such a strangely haunting vibe. Talk about mood and presence, atmosphere.

[@ramciucan]

I love him.

[@greagandev]

Artfully vague, compelling, and strange. Love it.

[@RoyHershey]

I hope Alex takes care of business and creates another masterpiece!

[@MonroeCannon]

The synth riff is from "The Big Ship" by Brian Eno...brilliant! The whole way the song progresses is also like The Big Ship. Can't wait to see him in Philly...Philly spelled backwards is Yllihp

[@albertoguerrilla3032]

Minimal, intense et authentique ! J'adore !

[@kevine2397]

Lyrics: When I got home from time abroad, she looked at me With eyes as if to say Just take care of business Yeah just take care of business When she sees me above the house in a fourth ender Oh, she yells, I hear her say Just take care of business Yeah just take care of business And by the dam below the house with the yelping pups Oh, she ties a rope around Just take care of business Just take care of business And when we kiss I feel her smile, and then she stops Oh, she stops and looks at me Just take care of business Please take care of business With a metal wreck, with a rusty tool, with snakes below Ooh, she grabs the axe from me and takes care of business Ooh, she takes care of business Ooh, she takes care of business I ain't half the man I wanted to be I ain't half the man I wanted to be Ooh, ya gotta take care of business Ooh, ya gotta take care of business I ain't half the man I wanted to be I ain't half the man I wanted to be Ooh, ya gotta take care of business Ooh, ya gotta take care of business

[@SaturnVenustar]

Thank you!

[@MichaelKisselgof]

Dude, you got a serious thing going on. Should send this to David Lynch.

[@trey4857]

Michael Kisselgof The shot at the opening scene of this video reminded me of “blue velvet” then I saw this comment so yea ... I had to comment

[@TrashBabe0705]

Yes!

[@branichoward]

this guy is the real deal, just recorded a live set of his in Oregon, he was fantastic

[@SunshineClementine]

Yeah, this guy got me several years ago, and we are revisiting each other, on a one-way street. ;)

[@KOBEKINO71]

Inspiration: LOOK & DANCE: Nick Cave SOUND: SUICIDE 2 ALBUM VOICE: BRYAN FERRY VIDEO: DAVID LYNCH Me gusta.

[@joefeldmann7581]

Theres a hint of David Byrne in there too (specifically his look/appearance during the song "Swamp" from the concert film, Stop Making Sense)...think "decrepit" and you'll see what i'm getting at.

[@ruchaxel6294]

Arcade Fire too

[@sisiwasabi81]

I hear Ian Curtis, to be honest

[@Vanessa8123]

that's absolutly right

[@junny3000]

I hear bruce springstien in the lyrics. The aspiration of the american dream. Money, a good wife and cool car

[@DanimationMovies]

My favourite AlCam song. Seeing him in Freo in November can’t wait

[@npanos1]

Strange Magic! ... Laissez-vous porter!.... Thanks to my son who brought me here!

[@comfygamingdojojo]

This one is mesmerizing!

[@tonytonie]

Just wow this track (and whole album) blow my mind!

[@wikipediabrown2791]

Ah yes. My favorite Alex Cameron song

[@Donatuis]

God this song is so good. Not to mention the video

[@nataliarodriguez2553]

What a great artist

[@SphereMusicCafe]

I just saw yall guys in Philly and it was amazing!!!! This song is great but I was so glad to hear it live

[@xv06-y31]

im tripping rn because i just read in geniuslyrics that this song actually is about his mom and i felt so weird for crying to his bc of my mom but now i feel validated man

[@beverlynunes7593]

Alex and Roy are engaging and fun! Love their act.

[@KempoWarrior1954]

So weird. I really like it. 😵‍💫👍

[@gbm7514]

this guy is great!

[@noelantoine1450]

From a distance he looks vaguely Paul Dano-ish, but a taller version. I dig this.

[@barav3382]

Yes, he totally does! Especially in Miami Memory, I kinda like to imagine he's like an older version of Paul Dano's character from Little Miss Sunshine that took the message of "life's just one big beauty contest, fuck that" to heart and really let his weird side shine through

[@zamie5723]

This is the song that sucked me in. I love Alex’s music.

[@TheTacticalMess]

You can really hear his influences in this song, and honestly he's done a great job at executing this sound.

[@janoluhs4056]

What are his influences?

[@duhusker4383]

@@janoluhs4056 Suicide is obvious. Brian Eno. Brian Ferry.

[@YouTuber58411]

I am going crazy!.. This is really cool creation of sound and voice!..

[@meghancass3187]

Wow. Alternative Gen xer is really impressed.

[@anabellaurich8717]

You gotta take care of business. Take care of business.

[@miguelacosta5446]

Awesomeness

[@oksanakoval3204]

So very haunting. Long live new obsessions! I mean new business

[@SEAN1983PHEANIS]

PURE GOLD

[@blueeyes6257]

i am f**king surprised how few there are views and likes for this song... and that it's actually... from 2016, not 1986

[@IIIBODYIT]

Legend doing tai chi while he sings

[@vanyllinha]

I was watching "The Joker" and could only think of this guy dance.

[@kevinfortsch]

Guess he got his show back

[@obedecealaursa]

in love with this.

[@chrisdb4940]

Saw him supporting The Killers on Monday in Manchester - pretty impressed!!

[@artisticinfluence9584]

He wrote or helped write five Killers tracks too

[@jOsSeLFeO]

I saw them in concert in France, it was awesome.

[@loffes_cirkus_rokt_marulk5514]

[@garwim2k]

Hope you come to the US of A and play some live shows!

[@joytatem3188]

He's playing in Deep Ellum, Dallas, TX Oct 13th with Islands

[@petthepetheo]

sounds like john maus and i like them both

[@jimponds]

Maus's songs Believer and Unititled Song (Molly) are perfect.

[@yoneyo87]

melo song i like it

[@newschanneled]

I'll never forget the first time I heard this song. My Mom had committed suicide a few months before. I purchased pure MDMA from a friend/co-worker on a Friday a few months after her death. This was the first song in my recommended when I lay in bed after waking.. I had to leave the room as to not wake my wife and 7 month old boy from crying. I went on to have the most healing experience while playing this song through most of it.

[@Goreny.]

OKAY BUT WHEN YOU SLOW THE SONG DOWN TO 0.75 IT HITS 49203829383727 TIMES DIFFERENT

[@petertheprettygood]

this album is going to kick some ass.

[@dolololo9993]

[@McVaerk]

If you like this you should check out the Danish band Nelson Can... they just released a killer cover

[@michaelg5359]

[@LarryKippings]

Roy is the brains and talent.

[@easyup9637]

Josh pall 🔥

[@PurpScurpington]

As a comment on the original version of this video said: "It's like Nick Cave fronting Suicide" Edit: holy shit Pitchfork stole this comment lol

[@Wendededed]

holy fuck it really is

[@springsten]

It's a pretty obvious point to make though.

[@nunyabuzness9638]

kind of a scary comparison to think about considering what Nick Cave is going through right now

[@petarmolnar14]

+Purp Scurpington , man, love your profile Pic... Paul Banks' mix tape cover art! ;)

[@Ca11mero]

Haha, also reminds me a lot of Algebra Suicide's spoken word era

[@manueldefregger1997]

sounds a little like the famous track from the interstellar score

[@zmor68]

Obviously, a bit ironic about Nick Cave ;-) [also from Australia]

[@TheDisKit]

This kind of vibe reminds me of Blue Velvet...

[@magnacapra5390]

He's like an edgy James Quall.
