Black Country, New Road are back with another new song from Forever Howlong. The new single, “Happy Birthday,” follows “Besties” and was, in fact, inspired by the preceding track. “When I wrote ‘Happy Birthday’ I had Georgia’s song ‘Besties’ in my head,” Tyler Hyde, who wrote the new song’s lyrics, said in a statement. “Therefore, the structure of it is heavily influenced by it.”
“Happy Birthday” comes with a stop-motion video that tells the stories of two birds in the woods. The visual was directed by Lesley-Anne Rose. Find it below.
Forever Howlong is out April 4. Read the new feature “Black Country, New Road Head Into the Unknown.”
