    Lyrics:
    Dusty rays and shattered beams,
    Slippery roads and sunburned dreams,
    Winter’s loss becomes summers gleam,
    Come wobbling out of the ocean.
    Come trickle back to den and roost,
    Come claw and tooth,
    And fish and goose.
    Come fin and tail,
    And paw and tooth,
    For life has a passion for living.
    Distant thoughts become cluttered mind,
    What is a drop in the ocean?
    Far and few but long behind,
    We’re spun by the heavenly motion.
    Ring the bell sound made crystalline,
    Ring out for the cause of all notions,
    April’s dew becomes Autumn’s wine,
    Leave everything always unbroken.
    Cosmo Sheldrake: double bass, electric bass,
    keyboards, percussion, banjo.
    Eleanor Tinlin : oboe, cor anglais.
    Ewan Bleach: clarinet.
    Greg Sinclair: flute.
    Yusuf Narcin: bass trombone.
    George Sleightholme: bass clarinet.
    James Davidson: flugelhorn.
    Misha Mullov-Abbado: french horn.
    Jack Steadman: drums.
    Hale May: backing vocals.

    When the beat "drops" (At 1:15) it changes the mood of the whole song from a dream state, to straight up being lost in a haunted carnival at midnight and running away from the abandoned clowns and freak show stars. It puts me in such a fantastical, imaginative state. What an amazing song. Makes me want to animate some kind of story to it.

    I have the perfect idea for an animation to this song. Imagine the old cartoon style, hand drawn, black and white, dramatic, etc. It begins with long shots of a town being run by factories. Long shots of that. Cue the line of factory workers trudging in on beat, getting to their stations, working the machines, each being like the other. We see our protagonist, his neck craning around as he’s looking at the others around him. His mind starts to wander, and we see scenes mentioned in the song shown in stark color contrast and newer, bolder animation style. When the coin rolls, he’s caught chasing a loose screw from a machine. He gets in trouble and around 1:15 the hunt starts for him. Scenes of the big bads from lower angles show, signs banning creativity, workers being labored, and protag running and hiding. Towards 4:00 he reaches the edge of the town and starts to see what effect the Factories have on the people, animals, and plants. He reaches a hill and climbs it up. He’s looking out over the dreary and grey town. Around 5:00 he glances back at the forest that is colored ever so slightly. He runs in, as he’s running, he’s starting to change colors and style and jumping through different animation styles.

    This song is three dimensional and mechanical. His voice is center and the background female is in the back right corner. The flutes/obies are off to the left. The mechanical shifting comes from in front of it all. One instrument is on the right. It's sound plays diagnally. It plays for the flute. The sound is very distant. And then it fades out.

      I know, right? It's almost frustrating, I've been listening to this album on repeat because I've realized this is my genre, but whatever this genre is, there's nothing else out there like this to switch to. Google says its 'Folktronica, Indie, Electronica' but that doesn't really come close. The heavy orchestral inclusion seems like chamber/baroque/orchestral folk or pop, but it doesn't really fit there either. My brain keeps drawing the most random parallels in the search to pinpoint a connection...90's folk, joanna newsom, devendra banhart, Gogol Bordello, 'Treeful of Starling' album by hawksley workman, Peter and the Wolf, The Decemberists, Moonrise Kingdom soundtrack, Thomas the Tank Engine theme, Monsters and Men, that scene from Fantasia with the nutcracker suite and the goldfish. It's so bizarre how it feels, to the senses, like an obvious genre that definitely should exist and have more representation, but where the hell is it? Maybe we just stumbled across the "Wes Anderson" of music.

    To me, this song is about living beings, and humans. The title, 'linger longer', I feel refers to our want for many species to remain as they are, and ultimately, ourselves too.
    I think the lyrics start off with the early earth, where there is not much to support living things and mainly a lot of sun. However, life comes wobbling out of the ocean. I feel the 'winter' here represents when life was unable to form, at least on land. The 'summer' would be the golden age of speciation,, or something haha. The next verse is quite straight forward, describing multiple ways beings evolved and then stating life has a passion for living- it's gonna go on whether you like it or not, adapting to the circumstances, whatever they may be.
    The third verse would be where it turns its focus to humans, who just so happened to evolve minds. The big philosophical questions are to most but a distant thought, but you can sit on them and think about them till its all you think off (think about it now linger longer could also refer to that, pressing you to linger a little longer on these questions). 'What is a drop in the ocean' is one of those questions, the one about us ultimately not meaning much in the grand scheme of things. I'm rather unsure of the next line, but it may be us studying past species, which are few (due to specific fossilisation requirements) and long behind. The next line could then be us humans realising that in the end all these past species are just us, it's course not decided by itself, but by the heavenly motion.
    In the last verse, ringing the bell is either a religious practice or just searching for meaning in general. The sound is made crystaline, like how holy sites are often prettied up for their god. It rings out for 'the cause of all notions', the creator of all belief, that is, 'God'. It should be noted here that humans are the ones ringing the bell, their cluttered minds have led them to search for beliefs and such. I interpret the mentioning of 'April' and 'Autumn' to be where we are now. If winter is the dark age where creatures couldn't even survive on land and summer the golden age of all life, then spring and autumn are the awkward unsure place we find ourselves in. While we as a species are thriving like never before, we have taken down other creatures in achieving that. Leaving everything unbroken is the rule we so often set for ourselves, but break when it comes to that regard, willingly or not.

    The sunlight seeps scarcely through the canopy overhead, lighting your path through the overgrown forest. Crows watch you walk by from their perches but you don’t dare return their glares. You can sense the souls in the trees, the moss, every inch of life in this labyrinth of thicket seems to have a soul. It’s almost like you can see the bushes looking back as you climb through them.

I had no clue what to do so I sat in an open spot and gazed at the full moon for an hour, with the cold sharp airbrushing against me, I didn't cry. I sat and felt scared yet comforted at the same time. As I sat there I thought if I would get home. My mind completely wandered off, Until I got brought back to reality.

They're tired, but it's a good tired"

    I love the whole Sheldrake fam, they're an absolutely brilliant bunch! I also love Edward Gorey & reading his books while listening to Cosmo elevates both artists to a whole new universe! They both share a slightly skewed Victorian/Edwardian kind of style. A bit macabre, eerie & even dark, but it's all tongue-in-cheek with a wide streak of humour running throughout. I'm absolutely certain that E.G. would've found Cosmo Sheldrake's music interesting, if not enthralling! I'd love to see someone do an animated pen and ink homage to Gorey set to any of C.S.'s tunes! (The Solar Waltz would be especially great!) Hey, there's a music video idea for you, Cosmo, lol! 😉 For those unfamiliar with Gorey, I strongly suggest that you check out his books like, "The Iron Tonic", "The Willowdale Handcar", "The Water Flowers", "The Object Lesson", "The Hapless Child" & "The West Wing", just to name a few of my personal favourites.👍😸

    There’s a gran ball. Everything is shades of browns, red, golds, and burgundys. All the guest are dressed up in Victorian era clothes, all shades of browns and maroons. Gears are intricately sewn into all of their suits and dresses. Everyone is wearing masks. They dance like clockwork to the beat while the band plays the mechanical melody.

    A dead city from 1924 after a war had happened and the city got blown, some houses stay up some have fallen, running away trying to find life yet you find none. Knowing you are running out of time as you hear someone or something behind you on the rocky road that is barely there, you run faster but you still hear someone, you keep running until you run into a big building that survived the bombings blocking your way, you ran into it knowing it could well crumble as you try to find a way to hide but you still hear someone coming

Starfish crawling and crabs scuttling and pinching off debris of food and bringing it to its mouth. An octopus squelches up into a crack in the rock, we watch it’s eye. And tiny eels and shrimp swim through the water. The water slowly returns as the creatures “linger on” in the pools to have the cycle repeated
