Title Note

THE LITTLE RED SONGBOOK includes 1 hidden track called "I Can See Japan" (recorded when Nick Currie was 7 years old) and 10 bonus karaoke tracks.

Momus: Nick Currie.

Nick Currie (a.k.a. Momus) is a high IQ cad, equal parts Oscar Wilde, Jacques Brel and self-proclaimed Don Juan. The listener is, of course, free to decide whether or not Currie is playing a role or gleefully hanging his obsessions next to the dirty laundry in his songs. But judging from THE LITTLE RED SONGBOOK, Momus' fourteenth album (but only the third released in the US), either method achieves a creative insight rare in today's pop.

As a cultural observer/critic, he is equally comfortable spouting anecdotes based on Dylan lyrics, spotting introverts at parties, or pontificating on the symbolism of oral sex. He's also a mean-spirited pervert (or plays one in songs), stealing lovers from his best friends and name-checking everyone he's ever slept with. He pulls it off with the wit and candor of a classicist like Randy Newman. Set to a baroque, synth-pop feel that, like his dry spoken voice, recalls retro lounges of the cheap suits and cheaper drinks variety, THE LITTLE RED SONGBOOK is filled with gems of pop philosophy. And in perfect Momus fashion, it comes with ten additional "Karaoke" versions, so you can start practicing being Momus too.
