“Mirror Don’t Have Any Feelings” is a ballad of love and regret for an ex who committed suicide. Ethan channels the struggle of acceptance (from family, self and the world). The song appears in Gold’s film Brother Verses Brother (who recently had a feature at the SXSW Film Festival). Ethan stars alongside his twin Ari (both sons of the famous novelist / beat poet Herbert Gold), playing himself as a San Francisco street performer trying to reconnect with him family. It’s also the third track public now to appear on Gold’s new album “Earth City 2: Nightfolk”.
“Mirror don’t have any feelings
So he won’t tell any lies
Doctor don’t sell any healings
So you’ve got to open your eyes”
