Deerhoof Share New Song “My Lovely Cat”

Deerhoof Share New Song “My Lovely Cat”

Deerhoof have shared a new song, a track titled “My Lovely Cat.” Satomi Matsuzaki wrote the song’s lyrics in Japanese, with lines including: “My lovely, lovely cat!/I can’t even leave home!/Let’s monitor on pet-cam.” The band recorded the song with engineer and producer Mike Bridavsky, the human caretaker of the late feline internet sensation Lil Bub. Check out “My Lovely Cat” along with translated lyrics below.

“My Lovely Cat” is the first new track from Deerhoof since last year’s Actually, You Can. In a statement about “My Lovely Cat,” the band said they were unaware of Lil Bub or Bridavsky’s connection to an internationally beloved cat when they made the track:

If you were going to compose a song about a cute cat from the internet, then get it recorded and mixed and mastered by an outside producer known not only for their recording and mixing and mastering, but for their cute cat from the internet, well, you would be shrewd indeed. But this of course we did not do, because we didn’t know about Mike Bridavsky or Lil Bub when we wrote the song! Well, we think about him now: a true collaborator and artist and friend.

Lil Bub came to prominence for her unusual appearance in 2012, becoming a beloved internet presence for her small stature, big eyes, polydactyl toes, and protruding tongue. She died in December of 2019 at eight years old. Bub and Bridavsky collaborated on the 2015 album Science & Magic, and the coffee table book Lil Bub: The Earth Years was published last year.
