The brushes on the snare drum sound like fluttering wings, and the video, the changing shapes alluded to in the lyrics, this is all pretty darn perfect. If I could fly What would I find Life's a flutter
I, a Dutchie, discovered this wonderful music when I was visiting a town market in Cambridge. A bookstand was playing The Unthanks, and I asked them the name of the band. Ever since I keep recommending people this music. It's so soothing and mystic... I love it.

If I could fly
What would I find
Life's a flutter

I love this song. I can't get it out of my head. Saw them perform it live - amazing.
The best piece of music i've heard in a long time.Beautifully sung.
Have you heard them do I mount the air, live at the BBC folk awards? I just found it, and it became my new fave.
Quality act, gorgeous dreamy vocals.
great variety from these lovely gals, thank you for sharing
Just been introduced to the unthanks by a friend and pleasantly surprised by these fellow northumbrians ❤
this is the lightest touch on the earth love it or loose it
Beautiful singing and arrangement. Have seen you perform before, cannot make it this time but sure it will be a wonderful show, as ever.

Incredible sound, beautifully haunting. Bit like a northern Portishead
I’d never thought of that comparison, but yes, I see it now.
I'd love to know who the Director of this was, it's a great piece of film. Sadly the Directors always seem to go unmentioned on You Tube.
+Martin Callomon That would be me.
@@LoFiHiLife well done, I love it. It's a flutter.
speechless!
awsome
Mindblowing

Gorgeous, but you'd expect nothing less from these wonderful Geordie girls and the rest of the band...
‘Northumbrian’ girls.
Lasses. Women, even.

Interesting style. I stumbled onto this group after stumbling onto the name of a PDX apt. complex and wondering if it was the converse of thanks.
+Geo T No, it's their surname :-)
Well now how about this. Its a lovely unthanks-portishead-radiohead sandwich. Please make more!
I don't have friends, my love of this might explain it, just difficult I guess
I think I know what you mean.

the environment desperately needs our help and sometimes music might be the start for some.
it would be the song of the dragonfly
I keep posting this, no response, what can you say
