He’s drawing for his honey
About what he feels inside
Painting with moods
And he’s just gonna tell her that he loves her
It’ll be instead of his words
She’s waiting for her honey
Would like to touch at his soul
She doesn’t get blues
In spite of the tide direction
Feels like permanent peace
In the country that’s vacant
They’re each on parallel ways, these never cross but who cares
In the room that’s vacant
There’s all the memories like diamonds
The country that’s vacant but blatant
It gives them palpitations
He’s waiting for his honey
Would like to touch at her soul
He doesn’t get blues
In spite of the tide direction
Feels like permanent peace
In the country that’s vacant
They’re each on parallel ways, these never cross it’d be nice
In the room that’s vacant
There’s all the memories like diamonds
The country that’s vacant but blatant
It gives them palpitations
In the country that’s vacant but blatant
It gives them palpitations

HAPPY's new album "Ancient Moods Mahollova Mind" is their third full-length album in five years, and most of the songs were recorded in the members' home studio, which was built up during the pandemic disaster.
As the album title suggests, the theme of the album is an ancient fascination and an exploration of the mind, and it has a new sound with an exotic atmosphere, as is typical of HAPPY's exploration of music that has never been heard before.
In addition to their usual instruments, the members themselves play a variety of instruments such as the Taishogoto, lyre harp, bansuri, conga, and djembe, expanding their range of expression while maintaining the catchy approach of their previous works.
Mastering was done by Timothy Stollenwerk, who has worked with Wooden Shjips and Drugdealer, and the depth and dimension of the sound has been increase.
These days when the times are extremely turbulent, what we need to do is search our hearts and minds. By following our hearts, we seek peace of mind, approaching "Mahollova." Exploring the origin and root of sound, ancient memories and rituals emerge. Reflecting on these ancient moods, the mind of Mahollova begins.
