Album

Ugly Beautiful is a 1996 album by Babybird, the band's sixth, though their first for Echo Records. Released on 21 October, the album includes the singles Goodnight, Candy Girl, You're Gorgeous and Cornershop. You're Gorgeous was a surprise top-three UK and international hit for the group. The album was written entirely by band-leader Stephen Jones. Many of the songs were written and recorded by Jones alone between 1988 and 1994. Several of the songs had been released in these demo.

So, Ugly Beautiful often treads close to cutesy nostalgia, of all things, yet it's saved by the sporadic surfacing of his songcraft. Even in this radio-ready setting, I Didn't Want to Wake You Up has a disquieting power, and You're Gorgeous positively radiates with twisted sexuality. But the long, ironic jams and unfocused material that end the record suggest that instead of representing the first flowering of his full talent, Ugly Beautiful may be the peak of it.

It's impossible to stop the buzzing and the zizzing with one, or even 15 slices of a stainless steel sheffield knife. It's like trying to eliminate workmen, pneumatic drills, neighbours, car alarms without murder. If we ever got close to perfection, to chop the fly in half, i'd stick the little bugger's head on a cocktail stick, and place it outside the king of flies house with his dung throne, to warn off all other little irritations. Ah, now that's life. Made in UK. Ugly Beautiful was Baby Birds first studio album as an actual band rather than just a Stephen Jones solo project. It was released in 1996 on the British indie label Echo Records in the UK and on Atlantic Records in the United States. It features the hit single Youre Gorgeous , which is by far Baby Birds best known song. Every song on this album is a re-recording of a song that was originally recorded by Jones by himself for one of his lo-fi solo albums as Baby Bird.
