  • Cosmo Sheldrake's 2018 debut album "The Much Much How How and I" is a delightfully divergent trek into the worlds of ergonomics and ecology, exploring how humanity interacts and makes its way in the wider natural world, as well as how that world has adapted, or failed to adapt, to the resulting changes.
    I'll be taking a dive into several songs on the album to dissect the greater meaning of their lyrics, and see how they tie together to capture the conflict of nature and man.
    Check out the album on RUclips here, and don't forget to support the rest of Cosmo's amazing music!

    I'd like to point out that Pliocene has a Kauai o'o, a species that went extinct due to humanity's actions, singing throughout it. It adds to 'gone for good' idea behind the song, in my opinion.

    I kept listening to The Much Much How How and I while I was in the psych ward one summer...
    It reminds me of home and of childhood, playing in the streams, during summer, and in snow during winter...
    Now summer makes the creeks run dry, and winter never comes...

    This video is absolutely perfect. There is not much on Cosmo that can prove my point in a school assignment I have. Now I have it! Each song you described was informative and soooo helpful. I’m grateful that I found this video.

    Hahaaaaaa I’m a little late, but at 13:38 did you make a- Run Rings Right Wrongs reference- I’m absolutely astounded.
    But seriously, I absolutely love the evidence you brought to the table... Especially with Egg and Soldiers. That ending sentence was stumping me for a while but hearing you talk about it in the light of consequential change from man’s overconsumption felt so right and fitting for Cosmo... Liking and Subbing!

    I really wish there was a bit of commentary on wriggle. For no reason other than that it's my favorite.

      Tbh, it’s a good song, but not much in terms of a analysis towards the overall theme of natural preservation/destruction
