Life isn’t a bed of roses, and Singaporean singer-songwriter GOOSE 我鳥 is here to remind us of that with his groundbreaking debut full-length album There Are No Flowers In The Greenhouse (溫室裡沒有花). Goose, the enigmatic artist, delves into the depths of pain and beauty.
Within the greenhouse of comfort, those who thrive might appear beautiful, but they wither away just as quickly. “Success is overrated and emphasised, and seldom do people document the journey and celebrate multiple failed attempts,” Goose boldly exclaims.
There Are No Flowers In The Greenhouse is an unfiltered exploration of the duality of existence, where the allure of comfort is often a veneer hiding the harsh realities of life.
It blends monumental moodiness with slice-of-life perspectives, creating a sonic experience that captures the essence of the human condition in all its beauty and brutality.
