My favourite song of Cosmo’s is Axolotl. It’s actually my favourite song of all time, and I love it so much that I named myself after it! Just want to say thankyou so much for your beautiful music and your inspiring personality, Cosmo! You really got me through a horrible time last year, and I don’t think I would have made it without you. Thankyou!!
Hearing the actual creator put the message in his music into words make listening to this album all the more important and special. Thanks a lot dude, your music never ceases to make my day
I had never actually listened though the full album before now, and I was utterly stunned in awe at the ending of Hocking. I can't remember the last time I've felt that much bombastic, mad energy come off a song.
the bassoon in Birthday Suit is.... so good. the first time i heard it i just sat there like..... "Are you kidding me??? this is amazing" I'm still in awe of it if I think about it too much. the whole album is such a jam, such a party and such a journey. Every second is wonderful.
Axolotl, pliocen, and solar waltz are my favorite! But even then I still replay all of them! I keep listening to the whole album instead of just sniping songs. I think the order of the songs were perfect as well!
I Like how at least once or twice he says “for me” when explaining his songs, like what the song means “to him”, it makes it that even if he has his own meaning to the songs, theres still enough room for us the audience to have our own interpretations to each of the songs. I have loved this album ever since I first heard it in 2020, thank you for making such a wild and wonderful album!
I love you’re music so much, you’re such a big inspiration for me. You’re songs have inspired multiple character and story ideas, and they’ve helped me when my creativity would shrivel and die. I hope you never stop doing what you do, you’re songs are amazing :)
Just gave it a very first listen. It is. Absolutely magical. Amazing. I’ve heard all your stuff, Sheldrake, I should know what to expect. And yet. When Birth a Basket played. My god. You’ve done it again. You are an absolute legend.
God the entire album is incredible i still relisten to the whole thing very frequently it never gets old. Youre voice is just freaking incredible and soothing. I admire you so much you make such fantastic music, its so unique and theres so much awesome and energy and vibes to your music eaxh time i listen i fall more for this album i love all your music but theres somthing about TMMHAI thats just so freaking awesome
Gave the entire album and your two others a spin, definitely in the new top 5, bonus for being appropriate to listen to around children, and educational at times. 10/10 keep it up and you’ll go very; very far.
I discovered Cosmo’s music through “Come Along”, which I think I heard in a tiktok and was absolutely mesmerised by, right then and there. Upon getting to know the song better, it became a song of escapism to me-it felt like it described this magical world you could be whisked away to, where you can live life to the fullest, be yourself to the fullest without judgement. After “Come Along”, curiosity led me to listen to the rest of the album, as well as other songs by Cosmo, and I am grateful every day that I went on this journey. I have found one of my favourite artists of all time (not that anyone cares, if anyone reads this at all, but my other two favourites are AURORA and Hozier, both of which are evidently brilliant and I encourage everyone to listen to). This music is the most organic I’ve ever heard, and it has this special ability to transport me into its world every time. Picking a favourite song is impossible-I can only say I have loved every song I’ve had the pleasure to listen to dearly.
I love all your songs, but especially I think Egg and Soldier and the ones with a bassoon in them, like Axolotl and this new one Run rings right wrongs if I am not mistaken. You seem to have a thing for low-sounding wind instruments, and in general your style is just amazing with such cool orchestration and animal sounds and all that. Will buy your album when I find it. So happy to discover completely new and great music. Never heard anything similar before. Creativity is not dead! :)
I just finished listening to the album, and about half way through my power went out lol, but nonetheless it was an amazing album, I loved the weird unusual sounds littered throughout it!
man i love all the songs of yours! this album made my ears get high cause the music was just so good. keep up the good work man, lookin forward to your future songs!
I love how he makes magical lyrics, and gives the mean, and even with the meaning given doesnt make it less mysterious and wonderful some of them I saw coming some others huh, linger longer, I had no idea
Love this album and the stories for each song. I live in America and grew up eating Egg and Soldiers without ever knowing it had a name. Might have to start eating it again.
It was really neat to listen to the album, watch this and then listen again. The intentions were well conveyed but it was also nice to relisten with a bit deeper of an understanding of the meanings! :] I have been a little bit extremely hyperfixated on your work the past few days and it’s been so pleasant to hear sounds that make me feel hopeful and excited to live life again. Thanks for doing what you do and giving a sense of wonder and awe back to the world. Even if some of the songs are describing things that aren’t themselves great things, it makes me wanna do something about it yknow? Makes me want to take action to make the world a better place for all forms of life.
oh and it's cool that you know about kvass which I thought was more a Central/Eastern European thing!! Egg and soldier is eaten in other countries too but I didn't know that was what the name referred to :P
here's an interview with Cosmo where we break down these themes and talk about plant physiology, breakfast, etc. hope you all enjoy: www.trialanderrorcollective.com/interviews/living-between-observation-and-imagination-an-interview-with-cosmo-sheldrake?fbclid=IwAR0VkRVeRvRRJGKvmBLZ3Csf-bBHPpVQuVQIxgKTafJmQBpcv2_esk6djHg
I just spent many wonderful hours listening to Cosmo's concert in France (uploaded 2016). This was very much alive and wonderful. When I now look (listen) to this album I just don't know what to do with it. Where is the life, where is the experimental sound, the spontaneity? It might be me - but it sounds rather conventional to me. Sorry... I don't know whether being honest ist a good thing. One more thing: In the live concert the music GROWS - in this album the music is "finished". I wonder whether that is a good thing.....
I had //totally// lost CosmoSheldrake-MuchMuchHowHow! just found it in my online directory. Yes yes, on point: dance through the night and wake when the birds sing :- indeed yes luv yuh fella --ben
protect this precious man
Wriggle is a nut of a song.
This man deserves the world but the world does not deserve him. My god.
I love all of these songs, they're just all clever and awesome to give a listen. It inspires me to draw, thanks for making such good music.
My favourite song of Cosmo’s is Axolotl. It’s actually my favourite song of all time, and I love it so much that I named myself after it!

I agree
Hey I think I saw you on Cosmocord
Hello fellow axoltol

I think "Come Along" sounds like a fairy parade. It's not quite safe, but you want to follow it anyway
Someone actually made a video on being in a fairy tea party with this song
@@Sunnfloweropposum Oh my goodness, I need to see that
@@Sunnfloweropposum Can you please tell me who made this video?
come on then show them lol@@Sunnfloweropposum

YOU ARE A CUTE ANGEL, GOSH
Egg and Soldiers was my favorite... I've also always been obsessed with the idea of Venice drowning under people.
I have to say wriggle is absolutely amazing. I love how everything works together.
Come along. The first one I heard from you and favorite :)
The moss,come along,tardigrade song, mind of rocks,hocking are some of my favorites
I love Axolotl, such a beautiful melody
Just gave it a very first listen. It is. Absolutely magical. Amazing. I’ve heard all your stuff, Sheldrake, I should know what to expect. And yet. When Birth a Basket played. My god. You’ve done it again.
You are an absolute legend.
I love egg and soldier. It's just... amazing. Great album!
I literally just watch this sometimes to hear Cosmo's voice
it's just calming tbh
I love your fish. Pass my props along to your artist please? Delightful imagery.
The artist is probably dead since they were drawn in the 1700's
@@rafasilva1265 wow, for real!?? that's really interesting, do you know who made them?
@@lordlandcandlestick3010 A french fella called Louis Renard. They're based on South-African fish, but are mostly fictional.
mildly incorrect medieval fish are quite possibly my favourite part of this album 🤝
God the entire album is incredible i still relisten to the whole thing very frequently it never gets old. Youre voice is just freaking incredible and soothing.

Please tell me I'm not the only one in love with his accent
This album overall is of such quality! Thanks a lot for sharing it with us. All the best

Linger Longer, Beetroot Kvass, Axolotl, Spring Bottom, Eggs and Soldier, Linger A While, Birthday Suit and every other song on the Album
Thanks for existing!
I'm so excited to get the album!!!!!!

my friends have said my only defining trait is using big words at random times and these songs are like me
You forgot Beetroot Kvass!
I love his music so much and I can see the creativity in each song.
Favourite? DEFINITELY Beetroot Kvass
My little sister's favorite is Wriggle
Edit: hey wait where's beetroot kvass
Bro I just figured out my favorite song is about bEEs
oh and it's cool that you know about kvass which I thought was more a Central/Eastern European thing!! Egg and soldier is eaten in other countries too but I didn't know that was what the name referred to :P

the irish like to do an egg and soldier! the french to apparently :P
Love the album! I’m so excited to see you in Cologne next week ☺️
One Word :
Wow.

So much fun.
Pliocene and wriggle is a beautiful song it’s just my favorite
Can anyone tell me who's the cover's artist?
Birth a basket is probably my favorite song from this album
HOW THE HELL IS HE 30?? He looks like he is 20. I'm shook
(Squidward voice) OH NO HE'S CUUTE
i love all of your tracks！！！！！！！！
Yes
Si tuviera un reproductor de cds te compraría los discos aaahh, mereces eso y más ;-;9
Solar Waltz is so beautiful
I think it's probably a tie between Come Along and Solar Waltz.
Pay Attention! Cosmo is G.O.D. (don't worry, you are too) WAKE UP and REALIZE IT!
Skipped Beetroot Kvass ;-;
Got some in my fridge!
Pleaaaaaase come to Canada!! (Québec) :)
Im gonna buy it so hard like maaaaaaaaaaaaaan
Is great man keep it up
My favorite is wriggle
you are so cool
he looks like spike from cowboy bebop
Spring bottom is one of the most special songs I’ve heard, you genius!
Your description is wriggle is what i thought the song was about.
nz call it egg and soliders too. but its not a common dish
he reminds me of kickthepj
do you reckon he's a tiny planet explorer?
OH MY GOODNESS HE DOES
I think it might be phenol not iodine?
any Faller?
I've always interpreted Egg and Soldier as about the ruining of the ecosystem
I had //totally// lost CosmoSheldrake-MuchMuchHowHow! just found it in my online directory.
Yes yes, on point: dance through the night and wake when the birds sing :-
indeed yes
luv yuh fella
--ben
Wait, what? and you leave the song itself beyond discovery?!
Something wrong here.
Australians have egg and soldiers, btw love you music and this album is awesome.
