And when I look out my window
What do I see
The old grinder selling
Sawdust balls with a moth-eaten parrot
And he plays
Watch the children play on Paradise Passage Road
I see the best things aren't free
Despite everything
This old grinder still in love
With a shiny-scaled mermaid
Quick-tailed
Some... Some place between him and a myth
And he plays
What is forever
Are there things we can change
And the parrot
He says
I... I believe in the sun and the sky
Words that just don't seem to tell me why
The Durutti Column is a British musical group formed in Manchester in early 1978. The group revolves around the figure of guitarist and composer Vini Reilly, known for his minimalist and experimental style that blends elements of post-punk, ambient, and electronic music. Considered one of the pioneers of British electronics, they signed with the legendary Factory Records of Tony Wilson, becoming an integral part of the Manchester music scene of the 1980s. Their characteristic sound is defined by introspective atmospheres, hypnotic melodies, and complex instrumental arrangements that often incorporate synthesizers, samples, and sound effects. Among their most representative tracks are "The Chameleon", "Sketch for Summer" and "Order of the Day". The debut album "The Return of the Durutti Column" (1980) is considered a post-punk classic, while "Sex and Death" (1982) cemented their reputation as an innovative band. The Durutti Column continues to be active to this day, releasing new albums and collaborating with artists from various disciplines.
