It was bound to happen, and now it has happened: How it’s done in Italy has landed, like a swan or an eagle, in Japan. The country of our longest growing furthest stretching dreams is now holding our hand, after we brought her our first record in a (naturally) Japanese edition, with some of the newer songs as bonuses, and spiced/spoused up with our new born photo book How it’s done by My bubba & Mi. It’s all very delicious.
Come taste. The Japanese edition of How it’s done in Italy, is also available at our cozy store
And in Japan, here

Bring your own chop sticks.

Japan, nice to meet you. Nice to hold your hand.

Oh Kiss No

Oh my man he don’t like kissing now what do I do?
He gets restless after just a minute or two
he says he has to go fix the record or polish his boots
and I’m left lonely, pulled up by my roots

He plays his guitar for hours
and takes really long showers
But my lips have to sit
and wait and hunger
as if he told me to please take a number

I have patience to fill up caves
But sometimes I feel like go digging graves
If he won’t give me kisses soon and many
I’ll drop and wiggle down the street like a penny

Through & Through

you come
like a tornado you come
and you mess up my car
my car that is my life
and like my life, it carries me around

I’d give
I’d give the whole lot to you
I’d do it all-ways, all-through
oh my hero, for you
I’d lay,
lay down across
the railroad tracks with you
I swear I think it is true

you burst
you burst into my soul
you crash all the fragile things
that I polish each night
mm, that I polish and worship each night

you lick
you lick the cream off my skin
you rub the steam off my brim
so gallantly frail
I’m floating in soap and water for you

Wild & You

I’m so wild about you baby,
half would be enough
I’m so wild about you honey,
makes being without you awful tough
I’ll run far for your loving,
until I lose my breath

I spend most of my life now
dreaming dreams about you
I spend most of my life now
dreaming baby of you
now what would I do
if they ever come true?

Still my answer is yes
to whatever you say
oh my answer must be yes
to whatever you say
Cause you make me feel
like a real deal loving mess

Oh what is it with our nerves
rubbing on each other?
Oh what is it with our nerves
rubbing on each other?
They shimmer and we shine
like electricity lines

I’m so wild about you baby,
half would be enough
I’m so wild about you honey,
makes being without you awful tough
I’ll run far for your loving,
until I lose my breath
and fall into my death

Good Night Heart

I would say I’ll see you in the morning
but I know all the good will be gone
it’s clear you sadly have to leave now
so I wave good bye good heart

when the night is slowly sleeping and we come to the final tune
I hold you close to me darling and I hope to see you soon

Nothing Much

I should lay my burden down
instead I cling him heavy to my head
when I should lay my burden down

I ought to leave my man
instead I sleep heavy on his bed
when I ought to leave my man

hold my heart and hold my waist
the whole night  through
hold my heart and hold my head
until the day is new

everything up here froze to Ice,
everything that once was very nice.
there is nothing much that I can do until spring time will arrive
since everything up here froze to ice.

when home sweet home seems far away
I find a place to rest.
on your well grown beard I lay, upon your homely chest

so! now we are finished with america, but only for this time. our goodbye was an intimate concert in john & yoko’s old place with half of our newly acquired nigerian cheer leading team and tomato soup and a dog and other good folks. in a few hundred years we will be known as famous adventurers. tomorrow we will go for huevos rancheros and then catch a flight for home and family.

The juicy new EP by My bubba & Mi, ‘Wild & You’, holds 5 new tunes in a shimmering flower sleeve. These tickling, silky like songs were born in spring days of longing, and became fully grown in a dense fruitful garden while rehearsing for a tour with the Tangarine Twins early this summer. Recording them shortly thereafter, here is now a lovely little jewel to savor and sip, right on time for cold dark fall. ‘Wild & You’ is introduced by a historic video for single ‘Through & Through’.

Look at that! Our new Bob single will be released on July 15th. Hand stamped like usual.

“Our new single contains two songs – the first is a slow moaning ode to men, explaining their greatness through the stories of BBQ Bob, Cinnamon Sam and Crocodile Dundee, and the second is the long awaited release of a song we’ve played together from day 1, but that was written in 1975 by My’s father’s wife’s exhusband’s mother’s previous lover; Bob Dylan. Enjoy it with lots of corn, watermelon and BBQ sauce, some ginger ale and a good companion” -My

A car can be very important. Especially when you want to get somewhere, and that somewhere is 60 or more places in different parts of Europe, over a few months. We are going on a tour in just a little bit, and really need to get some wheels! Since it’s all of you we are going to go visit and entertain to the point of satisfaction, why don’t you give us a hand to get a hold of our very own automobile?
Our very own car fundraiser is set up like this: If you pledge an amount towards our tour car, you will get nice rewards! On top of that nice feeling of Helping a pair of fair ladies in need! And of course, personal updates from now throughout the tour! See it all here – there is a darling video;

My bubba & Mi introduces, for those previously unintroduced; The blue Vinyl

It is the most special precious prettiest-of-them-all Vinyl (How it’s done in Italy vinyls that is), exclusively reserved for none other than the next king of Sweden.
As you must’ve heard, the recent royal British newly weds wanted only The blue Vinyl as a wedding gift, and apart from that, they didn’t care, and asked for money to give away to charity to avoid the hassle of unwanted presents laying around their castle. But The blue Vinyl they could not have – we had to turn them down, most definitely. Oh yes. It is for the next king of Sweden. They tried to beg, they tried to offer us all kinds of royal treats, but we stood firm – it must be his. Their disappoinment turned into anger but their royal highnessness prevented them from acting on it, and as you see on tv, they still smile well behavededly. Oh well.

Here is a rare photograph of the rarity (it is blue-blooded blue, you can be sure, but it still doesn’t like the flash of cameras, and is therefore kept highly unphotographed)
