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.
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~
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
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
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.
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.
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
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

So, was he?
.
yes? or yes?
I can't stop listening to this song and can't take my eyes of this clip. This is mesmerizing.
I saw him live for this tour. Opened for foxygen. He was absolutely phenomenal and it had a profound impact on me.
So so good. The ending is so good. Alex has a way of building up a song to haunting perfection.
Well put
Alex is amazing. Love everything he creates!

ShatteredDiscoBall that is such a precise description!
i guess you've hearD their Duet by now?
Stranger'S kiSS anD watch the video...
This song has such a strangely haunting vibe. Talk about mood and presence, atmosphere.
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
His voice is magnetically haunting.
Artfully vague, compelling, and strange. Love it.
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
Thank you!
Love this song from Kyrgyzstan country
this guy is the real deal, just recorded a live set of his in Oregon, he was fantastic
My favourite AlCam song. Seeing him in Freo in November can’t wait
Minimal, intense et authentique ! J'adore !
Just wow this track (and whole album) blow my mind!
I hope Alex takes care of business and creates another masterpiece!
Control Z Netflix Show brought me here ♥
Welcome! Alex doesn't mess around. Hope you enjoy!
Oh my God. This outro is just perfect
I just saw yall guys in Philly and it was amazing!!!! This song is great but I was so glad to hear it live
This one is mesmerizing!
What a great artist
Alex and Roy are engaging and fun! Love their act.
You can really hear his influences in this song, and honestly he's done a great job at executing this sound.
What are his influences?
@@janoluhs4056 Suicide is obvious. Brian Eno. Brian Ferry.
I am going crazy!.. This is really cool creation of sound and voice!..
I love him.
this guy is great!
Dude, you got a serious thing going on. Should send this to David Lynch.

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
Yes!
Strange Magic! ... Laissez-vous porter!.... Thanks to my son who brought me here!
God this song is so good. Not to mention the video
Yeah, this guy got me several years ago, and we are revisiting each other, on a one-way street. ;)
Inspiration:
LOOK & DANCE: Nick Cave
SOUND: SUICIDE 2 ALBUM
VOICE: BRYAN FERRY
VIDEO: DAVID LYNCH
Me gusta.

Arcade Fire too
I hear Ian Curtis, to be honest
that's absolutly right
I hear bruce springstien in the lyrics. The aspiration of the american dream. Money, a good wife and cool car

I can confirm, Alex took care of businesses.
Awesomeness
I saw them in concert in France, it was awesome.
Saw him supporting The Killers on Monday in Manchester - pretty impressed!!
He wrote or helped write five Killers tracks too
song goes hard
in love with this.
This is the song that sucked me in. I love Alex’s music.
You gotta take care of business. Take care of business.
PURE GOLD
Hope you come to the US of A and play some live shows!
He's playing in Deep Ellum, Dallas, TX Oct 13th with Islands
Ah yes. My favorite Alex Cameron song
Ich Liebe Dies ❤ Es läßt mich tanzen. Ich Fühle❤
brilliant
So very haunting. Long live new obsessions! I mean new business
Saw this dude last night at the ny bazaar, shit was weird, but in the oddest most entertaining way. Good stuff man
sounds like john maus and i like them both
Maus's songs Believer and Unititled Song (Molly) are perfect.
so good!
Great song, great video
i am f**king surprised how few there are views and likes for this song... and that it's actually... from 2016, not 1986
Look like Nick Cave ! I love it !
melo song i like it
From a distance he looks vaguely Paul Dano-ish, but a taller version. I dig this.
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
Wow. Alternative Gen xer is really impressed.
Saw him as the killers support act - such a talent
Excellent
this album is going to kick some ass.
tasty tune
So weird. I really like it. 😵💫👍
Guess he got his show back
Control Z \o/
Josh Pall part !!
Sick part tho
Perfecto Tremendo
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
holy fuck it really is
It's a pretty obvious point to make though.
kind of a scary comparison to think about considering what Nick Cave is going through right now
+Purp Scurpington , man, love your profile Pic... Paul Banks' mix tape cover art! ;)
Haha, also reminds me a lot of Algebra Suicide's spoken word era
what happened to the video for his song "happy ending"?
I was watching "The Joker" and could only think of this guy dance.
If you like this you should check out the Danish band Nelson Can... they just released a killer cover
Touches of Arcade Fire at their Balladiest'
this is exactly what I said to my friend when he played this!
Legend doing tai chi while he sings
What is this song about? What’s the business

This song hard as fuck nigga
i can't believe he was only like 24 in this
Seems like a song from Tim and Eric’s awesome show lol love it
Obviously, a bit ironic about Nick Cave ;-) [also from Australia]
Like something from Only God Forgives
sounds a little like the famous track from the interstellar score
Josh pall
Josh pall Nike sb part
This kind of vibe reminds me of Blue Velvet...
Please contact me if you are desperate and love this song very much.
bowie et plus récemment a la francaise un Sebastien tellier
He's like an edgy James Quall.
genius

Roy is the brains and talent.
Sooo bloody
im so mad at myself for liking this +1
i thought it was better without the blue filter
hmm röka nu ja 😮
Iggy Pop, Bowie, Nick Cave`s influence on that guy
Nozzy Bowie for sure meets the killers
doesn't sound like BTO at all.
reminds me iggy pop pose on the idiot
hand span man
I ain't half the man I wanted to be
