Time for some serious art on Filles Sourires: 21 Love Hotel's Ennui is based on a poem by Belgian symbolist poet Maurice Maeterlinck. He received the Nobel Literature Prize in 1911. 21 Love Hotel are Clemence Léauté & Frederic Oberland. They write: "A friend of ours directed a play based on Maeterlinck's poems and asked us to dream about the music. That's what we did with Ennui. It was a great opportunity to work on a French text (21 Love Hotel usually sings in English - Gzbrg), so musical and evocative. We did everything together, as always, and we're happy to offer a very different song, une chanson. We play every instruments, guitar, tubular bells, chinese bells, piano, old music box, acoustic bows, metronome, etc."Ennui is short, but intriguing. If you heard it once, you want to hear it again. It reminds me a lot of the atmosphere on the first This Mortal Coil-album, or the work of Susanna and the Magical Orchestra. Read a very nice review of 21 Love Hotel's songs here.
