Glints - My Ensor (Colours)
Promoting art! This Summer they are re-opening the Ensor-house in Oostende. For those of you who don’t know: Ensor is one of the most influential Belgian painters ever. For the occasion I was asked to make a short track to get young people interested in Ensor and his work. I took a deep-dive in Ensor’s background and oeuvre and wrote ‘Colours’. You can find it on Spotify as ‘My Ensor (Colours)’. To avoid confusion: this is not a Glints single. It was created for the ‘My Ensor’ campaign.
Production by Yong Yello

LYRICS:
Show your true face
Paint your true colours
‘Cause that masks depicts what’s hidden underneath the covers
World’s a big stage
Life is your play
Show me your ensor / take it off / don’t let it go to waste
Memento mori: in other words everybody dies
The grim reaper’s at our doors
so we’re all living lies
Keeping up appearances no matter how you feel inside
Fear of rejection be honest did you even try?
They looking down on us
They see me as a clown because
I don’t stick to the rules they impose
While everybody knows
carnival’s in town year round
And everybody attends
Wings might catch fire but don’t cease the ascent
