lyrics
I have lived 27 years
I have travelled more than one million miles
I have met beautiful smiles
But there is something I have never seen
I have never seen a whale
Have you ever seen a whale?
The whale that wonders around the world
The whale that follows the sun
The whale that jumps in the sky for fun
The whale that goes back to where life begun
You can leave one hundred years
You can travel more than one million miles
You can meet beautiful smiles but there is something you will never see
I have never seen a whale
Have you ever seen a whale?
The whale that wonders around the world
The whale that follows the sun
The whale that jumps in the sky for fun
The whale that goes back to where life begun
If you ever meet a whale
You should never touch his tail
because if you ever touch his tail
You will never meet another whale!

I usually haaaate autotune voices, but done this way it's brilliant. When enough craftsmanship is used. Hard to pick a favourite from this great album. One of my favourites of the year! soundofperpetualastonishment
Psych-folk with a late 60s / early 70s flavour. If you like Nick Drake or Fairport Convention you will enjoy this. It's an observation of change and a celebration of a hazy, high summer harvest. The music transports you to the moorlands and mill towns of Northern England. Dark and open and embellished with beautiful melodies and thoughtful lyrics.
This is album of the year 2021 for me. distant planet
