Three black dots at the end of a sentence.
Three songs at the end of an endless stream.
⛰ This is the third and last song from our EP 'Endless Play' which you can listen to here: peterbjornandjohn.ffm.to/endlessplay.oyd
"This song/bagatelle is about eros, emotional schizophrenia, the ambiguous feeling of desire, the fear of falling for someone, and the art of self-control.
Wanted the music to have the same ambiguous and perplexed feeling as the lyrics so when we were recording it, we played the song over and over again, and every time we started from the top, we all changed instruments.
So on this song, you can hear Peter, Bjorn and me play guitar, bass and drums, on the same song and for the first time. (My personal favorite spot is the third and fourth verse when Peter plays the drums. (It sounds like Ringo Starr!)"
– John

LYRICS
Hit the gonggong, hit the gong, hit the gonggong
A weakness growing stronger
One look at you and my heart beats like a hammer
Hit the gonggong, hit the gonggong
Feels like I’m bouncing on a tightrope
One look from you and everything begins to tremble
But I just gotta ride it out
Gotta ride it out
Cut to two, three days later
A fear accelerated
One look ahead and there is nothing but trouble
Strike a major? Strike a minor?
A moody teenage behavior
Can't sleep and my heart beats like a hammer
I just gotta ride it out
Gotta ride it out
Gonna ride it out before I’m out of my mind
Hit the gonggong, hit the gonggong
#endlessplay #gonggong

"This chord progression is something that we've been messing around with for years. Trying different melodies and approaches. It even had a bit of Beethoven's 'Für Elise' mixed with Twisted Sister in there for a while. But at last, we found a melody that clicked and made into a little acoustic twelve-string gem. Btw - don't miss John's snare drum singing. A real rare spooky vibe :)"

LYRICS
Sitting on the same bed
I don’t know where I’m going and it is
getting late
Tell me what is wrong now
Tell me what can we do about it
Nothing stays the same
I guess I’ll be gone gone gone gone gone till November
and if I belong long long long long long will I stay there
It's one of those mornings after one of those nights
I guess I’ll be gone gone gone gone gone
gone to make it right
You say you’re gonna miss me
I don’t know but it’s making me feel
so far away
It’s coming on slowly
I don’t care how we got here
because we ain’t never going back
I guess I’ll be gone gone gone gone gone till November
and if I belong long long long long long will I stay there
It's one of those mornings after one of those nights
I guess I’ll be gone gone gone gone gone
gone to make it right

'Season of Defiance' was written by Peter, who shared:
As quite a few of my PBJ-songs started in a different time-signature as a fingerpicked acoustic thing that we sped & jingle-jangled up in the grand tradition of The Byrds popifying folk. Like a lot of material from the Endless Dream album, the final version is 90% based on a live take of the 3-piece and beautiful things happening between us in the spur of the moment. John added some percussive elements and I added a couple of different acoustic guitars for chiming textures as well as some choirboy-baroque-harmonies. The song is supposed to sound like a fresh spring new morning, still a bit chilly but with warmth coming on, and I think it does. Light but with weight if that makes sense. Lyrically it has the same ethos as the rest of my contributions to Endless Dream. It takes notice of all the darkness and shit around us (the "darker days" if you will) but are determined to look forward with a positive outlook and a glimmer of hope. Granted even harder to do now than when I wrote it but nevertheless. We sure do need to stay defiant these days and not be scared into silence and submission. So it's a very gentle call to arms I suppose, in a couple of coupled together sentences that you can read a lot into if you like… or not. – Peter

LYRICS
Like a warm night in midst of a cold wave
Though torn and frayed our strategy will keep us safe
Hold your own when the wind blow up the blues
Astray they run with headlights on the wrong idea
You look tired, I am tired too
but carry on, we'll carry on, we won't get fooled
Sail against a clearer sky
Open up our how to why
Let us be awakening
to new days not just tainted dreams
Itchy old world is fretting on my nerves
Have you heard such stupid words, my ears go red
Yet all thats brutal has a softness just below
Scratch the surface, let it bleed then let it glow
Make believe, we can still last long!
Until the last refrain of the last singalong
Sail against a clearer sky
Open up our how to why
Let us be awakening
to new days not just tainted dreams

Meanwhile, the un-instrumental version of the video of very vibey stills from an old pastelly vacation of Henry Moore Selders (the director) is up now on all our channels for your enjoyment! And the lyric is there for you all to dig into!
Peter has a few things to say about this now that all the "Endless Dream"-tracks have their own clips;
"'Simple Song Of Sin' is sequenced perfectly. I think of the album in that it gives listeners a bit of a breather with its long dreamy-weave outro of echoey keys and layered twangy guitars. Even before that, it's kind of laid back and self-reflective in its soul-pop-psych-groove. Is that even a genre? The '3-instrument'-core here is based on bass and guitar playing a locked-in harmony-riff a'la 'Up against the wall,' on this record 'Music' and probably countless others?
A PBJ-trademark nicked by way of The Mg's and maybe New Order? We've probably overused the word 'melancholic,' but if 'Endless Reruns'
addressed late-summer ambiguity, this one is all about the full-on fall, which makes this text perfect right now. 'Autumn shape my senses sharp' indeed. We feel more pain when it's chilly outside, maybe? Or is it just bad clothes?
If we feel more and carry a skin too few, all the painful information of the world can be hard to process into sleepless nights. But it follows the theme of the record of TRYING in defiance to be POSITIVE.
Looking forward, onwards, upwards, shedding rusty old armors and make adjustments if needed, trying new things. Ah, well, that's it... hope you dig this track; we do!!"

LYRICS
Light is fading, winter is calling, summer is falling down
Autumn shape my senses sharp
Like I'm feeling, all of the people, all that is painful now
And it's making this so hard
What if the song I'm singing just pretends?
Wrapped around the finger of contempt
But I'm gonna change that tune
This shtick is wearing thin
It's my voice
You dial and dig in
Your choice
A Simple Song of Sin
All the days that builds to a lifetime looks swell in hindsight but
Struggles in the present tense
Eyes wide open, all that you see can be hard to carry through
Into imagination
Shadows growing taller every night
Self-reflection smaller and uptight
But I'm gonna drop that look
This shtick is wearing thin
It's my voice
You dial and dig in
Your choice
A Simple Song of Sin
When you're restless and easily upset it's hard
You forget to remember to forget
What if the song you're singing just pretends?
It's not even beginning and it never ends?
But I'm gonna change my tune
This shtick is wearing thin
It's my voice,
You dial and dig in
Your choice
A Simple Song of Sin
But I'm gonna drop that look
This shtick is wearing thin It's my voice,
You dial and dig in
Your choice
A Simple Song of Sin

#endlessdream
HENRY, the director about the video; “After making nine videos for the Endless Dream album, I was suddenly out of ideas when it came to the song ‘A Week-end.’ I turned to my 13-year old son Buster for help. He didn’t want to make a video but made a game which then was turned into a video of sorts - Johns stripped-down apparition from the end of the ‘Drama King’ video spends a lost week-end in front of the computer.”
BUSTER describes the idea of the game; "'A Week-end' is a little game about hitchhiking. My very idea is to imagine if Peter Bjorn and John went on this year's tour but then… John falls off their tour bus, or as in the game, a red pickup truck, and how he'd have to hitchhike his way to the upcoming concert, and that's about it."

LYRICS
A broken glass in a swimming pool
A fall in a dying afternoon
A breath on one last cigarette
You leave me scrolling on your telephone
Fading footsteps down the stairs
Trembling branches in the air
A whisper in a megaphone
We’re only good for a weekend
Through a gap in a broken wall
Half asleep in a new-built mall
Like Charles Darwin in a Disney world
I spot you scrolling on your telephone
You lick your gums, you itch your cheek
I’m moving back to the exit
The sun beats down on the city street
We’re only good for a weekend
Only good
Only good for a weekend
Only good, only good
We're only good for a weekend
A broken glass in a swimming pool
A fall in a dying afternoon
A breath on one last cigarette

#endlessdream
BJORN says: "The vibe of 'Out Of Nowhere' is what it felt like when we were in school, hanging around and maybe wrote a song, rehearsed it, and then played it for a couple of friends in some empty music café venue. Making something out of nothing is all you can do when you are young and have more time than money. Maybe trying to stick to that feeling is our main mission growing up.
Parts of the lyrics are also loosely based on the memory of the movie 'Dazed and Confused.' Haven't seen it in a long time, though, so it might be all wrong..."

LYRICS
Pull your dress on cause were going out, going out, out of nowhere into something
Hurry up now cause it’s time to go, time to go, out of nowhere into something
Up and around the bend
Out of our heads again
See it in my sleep
I can’t explain it, can’t explain it
I know I want you, to know what I’m on to
There’re a thousand things we need to do we need to see
Out of nowhere, into something
Up and around the bend
Out of our heads again
Let’s go looking for it
Hard to see hard to find
Let’s go looking for it
We got nothing but time
Call it what you want it’s always better than it sounds
Just remember everybody needs to go out
Out of nowhere into something
Out of nowhere into something
In the city we’ve been hanging out and running ‘round
A humble beginning, the bubble we’ve been in
If it’s going wrong it’s something we can call our own
On to something out of nothing
Up on the swing again
Look it is happening

#endlessdream
HENRY the director says; "The idea behind the video came from the title itself. Imagine being able to do endless reruns of your life. What moment would you choose? A spectacular moment or just an everyday situation where you feel totally comfortable and at peace with the world? Here Peter chose to endlessly re-live a late afternoon picnic in the Tanto park of Södermalm in Stockholm."
PETER says, "'Endless reruns' actually started out in my head on a beach in Mallorca, looking out over the ocean. Musically a simple, classic melodic PBJ-stroll through lush acoustic beds of guitars, woody basslines, poppy drums, tape-echos, Byrdsian harmonies, and a lonely harmonica. A twin to the old instrumental 'At the seaside' from 'Seaside Rock' fittingly enough! If anyone remembers that :)
Thematically to me, it's a centerpiece to the idea of 'Endless Dream' in that it kind of level-headed looks at the disappointments and expectations of life midlife.
Love and luck are hard-earned and evasive and doesn't come to everyone in a flash, if ever. Naivety and unflinching hope might be seen as an Achilles-heel to some, but STILL, it lingers on and doesn't leave too easily. People, countries, and ideas fucks you up, and nothing can be taken for granted. BUT in rare moments, life hits you hard in a positive, uplifting way. Those brief everyday seconds of happiness can come from the most mundane things, but you still want to catch them, treasure, and replay them in an endless loop. So it's about appreciating the beauty in the details, I guess. This makes you continue to dream about the impossible, unattainable goals that might just be better as dreams... still, it makes you get up in the morning, right?"

LYRICS
When the ocean never ends
Meets a blue sky just like heaven
You know it's just a haven for your dreams
And so, it's never really all it seems
Red turns into blue
Green just want bleed through
Guess you'll have to do without it
When old lovers stay best friends
Life’s on tap, a bird ascending
You know it's just a story seldom told
Good poetry sometimes make out with frauds
I believed in you
What else could I do?
Now I have to do without it
The naive stands prosecuted
If there's truth it's soon diluted
Run for shelter when the earth quakes
Build a fortress round your heartbreak
Still the waves comes crashing in
Sun set for the new beginning
Looks like luck is one thing ourselves can't choose
But it’s likely hope's the last thing that we lose
Red turns into blue
Pink comes bleeding through
Might as well just live and love it
This is all there is
That is all there was
I am up for endless reruns
(Equal all in love and loved ones)
I am up for endless reruns

It's the day to DARKER DAYS night, its sibling and successor.
It's endlessly dreamy (duh..), gently philosophically hopeful, playfully adventurous (with a dash of healthy sweet insanity), realistically melancholic, down to earth and up in the blue, blissfully nostalgic and painfully present. Well, it's all those things and anything else you want, really.
It's poppy, punky, folky, funky, groovy, plucky, rocking even.
It's all over the place but still very together and homogenous, we think.
Opposites attract.
Maybe it is the most PBJ-sounding album so far of all the PBJ-albums, whatever that implies. You've already heard six of the songs, but now you can listen to them in the right order as meant by the band, and there are FOUR new ones.
The shimmering folk-pop of a theme-tune of sorts in ENDLESS RERUNS, disappointment, and redemption walks hand in hand. The youthful exuberance and "go out and get it why it's hot"-call to arms in the form of bouncy rocker OUT OF NOWHERE. Juxtaposed in self-reflective soul-pop-psych SIMPLE SONG OF SIN about changing up your own scene and not letting the darkness get to you. The motorik-kraut-groover WEEKEND delivering twisted snapshots of a Weekend gone astray? Well, who really knows. We are here to add some bright colors to your day, some warmth to the cold.
It's still DARKER DAYS out there, but that means there's all the more need for dreams, even if the dreams are seemingly hopeless, unattainable peaks in the distant mountains, we gotta keep climbing and look for the next adventure. We gotta keep the hope up, keep the darkness at bay, dare to be dreamers. Cause really, what else is there? Even if you never reach that dream, the dream might still keep you alive.
Follow that dream, climb that mountain with us!!
And get the vinyl, so darned beautiful :)

It's simply called "MUSIC"!! What would we be without Music? Not much, no arguing about that! Hopefully, it'll brighten your day and make you tap your feet or even try a few dance moves.
It's tinted with rosy nostalgia of when music first hit us and connected us as a collective. But it is a very NOW and in the present song, which you probably can feel.
Music never dies. Music never grows old. Music is always relevant. Peter and Bjorn are singing this together, and there are backward guitar and an amazeballs drum pattern from the legend that is John!
Bjorn about the song: ""Music" is a reflection of what music meant for us when we started the band. And how it still is the DNA that keeps us together and makes everything else not as important. A great beat, a cool riff, a beautiful melody singing what's on our minds."

LYRICS
In a different city in a different world
We were running ‘round
And that was when we heard music
What we had in common where we thought we’re going In a misty morning
Just overflowing with music
On the answering machine there’s a familiar voice so easily recognized
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
And I’ll be there
Music on the windscreen of my dreams
Music in the dark end of the street Every time there’s music
It’s gonna be all or nothing at all
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
And I’ll be there
You can breathe it in you can breathe it out
When you're out for the count
I'll stick around like music
They say what you do is coming back to you
With a different view it’s all connected
When the dots projected through music
On the wave of notes we ride
And live forever through a melody
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
And I’ll be there

How the song became a song:
"Drama King" started with the rhythmical "riff-melody" on the verse and, by coincidence, the melody worked perfectly with an old lyric I found in a notebook.
(The working title in the note-book was "The Actor" / "Tom Cruise post Nicole Kidman").
The dorky 70s bass-riff suddenly popped up in my head, (don't ask me why), and after that, I called Peter and Bjorn.
Lately, we have gotten into some sort of "crash-test-rehearsals".
We meet up for an hour, try stuff out for ten minutes, and then someone has to leave for the tennis-court or to pick up kids from school.
The fact is, it happens a lot during those ten minutes. The best music happens when you don't think.
So:
1. I hummed the bass-line in Bjorn's ear.
2. He tried to play it.
3. I sat down behind the drums and tried out different, more or less stupid drum beats.
4. I asked Peter to play a retarded guitar-solo based on eight-notes.
End of session.
After that, I sat down behind the computer and picked out all the good stuff from the stuff we ended up recording.
In the end, it sort of sounds like a twisted James Brown track, played by, well, PB&J.
Big thanks to Johannes Berglund who mixed the track with style!
And to Henry Moore Selder who directed the very awesome video!
Best,
John

LYRICS
Been a saint, been a sinner
Been a punk, been a rebel
Been a fool, been a smart-ass
I was your friend, now I’m a stranger
I’m a Drama King
Baby! I’m not half the man that I could be when you’re not next to me
Gotta work through the pain
To a stale yesterday
I’ve been blind, I’ve been tortured
From dot to dot, from us to nowhere
I’m a drama king,
Baby! I’m not half the man that I could be when you’re not next to me
Drama, drama, drama king
Drama, drama, drama king
Drama, drama, drama king
Drama, drama, drama

"I used to be a scout as a kid, a very unpractical one, though. Therefore I never nurtured any dreams of becoming a scout leader but still felt quite comfortable when Henry, the director, assigned me the role for this group of videos", says Peter.
About the song-lyric Peter says:
""On the Brink" has a cautiously positive philosophical outlook on life and the shortcomings of being. It looks onward with a grain of hope and confidence. It wonders what's really important when everything comes to a head, and the minds boggled with how extremely tiny we all are compared to the vastness of the universe. Maybe to live in the present with abandon and dare to dream (even endless hopeless dreams), gaze at the world with a wider and more allowing perspective, not judge too hard and understand the importance of forgiveness."

LYRICS
On the brink of my eternity
A well I almost fall into
I've been thinking 'bout what's called destiny
And the things you never do
I've been trying hard, yes, I've been trying hard
I've been trying hard to do them too
Like the things you never told me then
Did you try too hard to please?
Did you ask yourself; "what if and when?"
Did it fly off in the breeze?
I've been trying hard, yes, I've been trying hard
I've been trying hard to catch those dreams
These things matter more than we know
These dreams send us to the stars
This life is the only one and
Your luck is my guide
In the hour of our confession
In the times we fear the most
We get judged beyond dimension
for our silly little faults
I've been trying hard, yes, I've been trying hard
I've been trying hard to make it right
These things matter more than we know
These dreams send us to the stars
This life is the only one and
Your luck is my guide
We all carry guilt and burdens
So a back gets crooked and bent
And we rarely never mention
The forgiveness, heaven-sent
I've been trying hard, yes, I've been trying hard
I've been trying hard to let it in

But who's that scruffy dude in the taxi?
And where is he heading?
Here’s what John has to say about the track;
"Some rare days, when you are in the middle of a creative process, you can experience an overwhelming feeling of invincibility.
That you are some sort of a genius and that no one else could ever create what you are now in the process of creating.
The next day that feeling is usually totally gone and instead, you are desperately trying to understand what the hell you were doing yesterday.
So, I wanted to write an exaggerated lyric about when you let that inflated emotion take control of you.
About when you love yourself a little bit too much, about the thin line between mindfulness and madness.
When I wrote it, I was listening a lot to blues from the 20s and 30s so this track shaped itself into some kind of odd, self-aggrandizing blues.
This song might also work in a self-therapeutic way when you think that all the people around you are idiots.
Good luck!"

LYRICS
Behind the wall of modesty
Comes the sound of my poetry
I call out twisted lies,
Words that rhyme
Life is a waste of time in your state of mind
Got a tremendous ability,
A narcissistic ebriety
I’m too vain to be insane
It’s not you, it’s not you it’s me Idiosyncrasy
Live to let myself free
Egocentricity
Superficially I’m all that matters to me
Hear me laugh like a maniac
When I glide through the cul de sac
I stab a hole in the everyday
With the needle from a haystack
Step aside my borderline
It’s not you, it’s not you it’s me Idiosyncrasy
Live to let myself free
Egocentricity
What you think of me is all the same to me
Idiosyncrasy
Got my Skeleton key
Egocentricity
Superficially I’m all that matters to me

Number 5 to "Rusty nail"s number 6? Where does this story really lead?
So apparently Peter is some sort of scout leader rocking his guitar after showing some scouting kids the way round a painted mountain range to a camping-tent. A guy is climbing a cliff in this great indoors, and there are orienteers of which Bjorn seems to be one. There are also explosions!! And what's up with John living in a box? Lots of questions, the answers are dim, but the energy is unmistakable.
"Reason to be Reasonable" is a classic relationship parable with the easily identifiable PB&J sway: "I was aiming for a classic power-pop song with an updated PB&J twist. It's about when you've been in a relationship for a really long time, and you feel like it's worth it", says Peter Morén. That can be applied to the band, too—a really long thing that keeps on giving."

LYRICS
In the evening, lost in conversation without deliberation
We're like windmills, never learned the lesson of this passive aggression
We have a lot of common ground now
But I'm still addicted to your know-how
You have no reason to be reasonable
I have no reason to be terrible
And though it's getting kind of comical
We're gonna get it back babe
We're gonna make it happen!
In the morning when I don't wanna wake up and you don't wanna make up
It begins to dawn on me, if we fuck it up completely, I still recall it fondly
Lost on the highway route to nowhere
But let’s enjoy it 'til we get there!
You have no reason to be reasonable
I have no reason to be terrible
And though it's getting kind of comical
We're gonna get it back babe
We're gonna make it happen!
Ooo, they say you don't choose, you just know
Ooo, I always knew, hate to say I told you so
Sometimes I hate to love you though but I love you so
When we're older, stare into the fire, our limbs worn out and tired
I don't wanna fight you baby, we'll always stay connected, no point trying to reject it
Maybe by then we both have found out
That this is it! It's for life!
You have no reason to be reasonable
I have no reason to be terrible
And though it's getting kind of comical
We're gonna get it back babe
We're gonna make it happen!
You have no reason to be reasonable
I have no reason to be terrible
And though it's getting kind of comical
We're gonna get it back babe
We're gonna make it happen!
We're gonna get it back babe
We're gonna make it happen!

With its glowing chorus and blocky percussive hits, "Rusty Nail" draws
inspiration from a Swedish kids song. "You trade toys, and if you get the rusty nail instead of the teddy bear, it's not so fun," Yttling chuckles. "When you're younger, you want to get into making music, but you don't know what it is. The more you know, the less you know, and the harder it is. It might sound like whining, but that's what it feels like when you're making music sometimes."
Wait and see as the mystery unfolds.

#IngridLiveSession #PeterBjornAndJohn
Mark your calendar: Wednesday, May 15th - 12pm PDT/3pm EDT/9pm CET
INGRID Live Session is our acoustic take on three songs off our album, Darker Days. All recorded live at our own INGRID Studio in Stockholm. It was filmed and directed by our long-time collaborator and Shout Out Louds bassist Ted Malmros.
The idea for the song came when I heard a woman saying “I could break all the bones in my body” to a friend just as I walked past them. I don’t know if she was talking about the poor snow clearing of the streets of Stockholm or something else but it was the perfect start of a chorus.
The first arrangement sounded like some kind of broken r and b. I can tell you, it sounded extremely cool. Really. But, it sort of ruined the lyric completely. So I started over and did this fragile arrangement based on a plucked acoustic guitar.
This song was actually on the table during the making of the “Breakin Point” album and one of the artwork-ideas for that album was believe it or not, three broken bones. But we ended up saving the artwork (and this song) for the Darker Days-release.
All the best and be kind to each other

There are also acoustic guitars. In fact, it's that rare thing, an all acoustic track performed all live, and it's all the better for it we think, dramatic and dynamic. See also if you can spot the references to Leonard Cohen and Mötley Crüe.

The 3 songs were written during and before the making of Darker Days but was recorded a bit later and ties in with the sound and subject matter of that album. A companion piece, evolution or appendix maybe?
John's beautiful "Bones” is a hardcore break-up song with a twist and also matches the artwork concept for the Darker Days release cycle eerily well. "Darker days" was the song that inspired the album's title. Sung and written by Bjorn and Peter it deals with dark long Swedish winters but also the aging & time ticking that escapes no one. "Saying goodbye" is a timpani & mandolin-ditty by Peter regarding how moving on and giving up a suffocating situation might lead to something new and (maybe) blooming.
Enjoy!

#peterbjornandjohn #darkerdays
The lyrics takes in 10 shades of darkness from politics to social to personal and lots in between with one really hopeful song thrown in for balance. It has a beginning, a middle and an end and you can feel it, like a proper album. Though the lyrics may dwell on darkness the recording of this album was a really, smooth positive experience where we discussed less and played music more and we think that shows too.
Enjoy!!

LYRICS:
Every other night
when the last light of your life hits your eyes
Every other night
there's a feeling that we're bound to make it right
But I need a ghostwriter
to make my words brighter
cause every single day
I lean over to the shadows
Don't slip in our footsteps
cause we're running with the devil
Don't slide into regrets
there's too much to unravel
I was brave and gave you a promise
from now on I would only be honest
Kicking myself in the morning
Kicking myself at night
Every other day
when you open up your eyes
and check your head
Every other day
when you wake up and regret the things you've said
I need a hard reminder
or the thickest blinders
cause every other night
I believe that we can make it
Don't slip in our footsteps
cause we're running with the devil
Don't slide into regrets
there's too much to unravel
There's a map, there's a path through the madness
but the dirt snaps back like a magnet
Kicking myself in the morning
Kicking myself at night
We have THREE new singles OUT NOW!
IN ONE DAY! (unheard of..)
