I saw a guy he used to run around here Honoring the night sky I knew a guy he was wandering here with distorted eyes I saw a guy I knew a guy And if you ever sometime go around feeling down all broken I know it’s hopeless But I’m on it and I’ve got time just to hang around Cause you always held back with your love and emotions It doesn’t solve it I saw a guy he used to run around here Honor in the night sky I knew a guy he was wandering here with dilated eyes I saw a guy I knew a guy And if you ever sometime go around feeling down all broken I know it’s hopeless But I’m on it and I’ve got time just to hang around Cause you always held back with your love and emotions It doesn’t solve it And if you ever sometime go around feeling down all broken I know it’s hopeless But I’m on it and I’ve got time just to hang around Cause you always held back with your love and emotions It doesn’t solve it

Tuning in my only satellite Waiting for a chance to reunite And I want you to know that I feel and I’m feeling alright I’m out in the plains and it feels like the end of the night Tuning in my only satellite Counting all the hours of my life I was hoping for rain when the sun came shining in bright I’m out in the street and it feels like the end of the night If you feel like it tonight I’ll be waiting for your call We’re strangers by now and I know that it’s my fault And they’re back all these thoughts, I can’t breathe I am so lost And I’ve got this feeling Sorry for the things I did that night Why do you always have to be so right I was hoping for rain when the sun came shining in bright I’m out in the street and it feels like the end of the night Yeah yeah

about

Baltus is short for Balthazar, as Kai explains “Baltus is the name of the record because when I was growing up we had this big crow in our garden. It was in a tree there for about 12 years, and we called that crow Baltus,” explains Gundelach. “I have a crow tattooed on my forearm; I really like crows! They’re a symbol for death and darkness in olden times and maybe more recently they’re a symbol for melancholy and loss.”


The album was recorded between Oslo and London with Knut Sævik (Mungolian Jetset), John Calvert (Ghostpoet, NAO), and Øyvind Mathisen (Cezinando, Nils Bech) as co - producers.

Kai Gundelach won a nomination as Producer of the Year at the Norwegian Grammys (Spellemann) for Baltus,
