    Sufjan Stevens and Tunng made a blood pact and performed an ancient, eldritch ritual, and the fey wildling they conjured together was Cosmo Sheldrake.

    When I hear a song I've never heard from Cosmo in a mixed playlist, I'm always like "Hm, what's this? Sounds like Cosmo but I'm not sure." Then his voice kicks in and I'm always right. I can recognize his style anywhere, it's so unique and special that it's easy to recognize once you know him.

    • @unadonnastanca
      @unadonnastanca 4 роки тому +49

      Both the lyrics for Solar and The Fly are taken from William Blake's poems, so I think it's a very nice touch!

    [Lyrics]
    I rose up at the dawn of day
    Get thee away, get thee away
    Pray'st thou for riches? Away!
    I rose up at the dawn of day
    Get thee away, get thee away
    This is the throne of Mammon grey, away
    I rose up at the dawn of day
    Get thee away, get thee away
    Pray'st thou for riches? Away!
    I rose up at the dawn of day
    Get thee away, get thee away
    This is the throne of Mammon grey, away
    I rose up at the dawn of day
    Get thee away, get thee away
    Pray'st thou for riches? Away!
    I rose up at the dawn of day
    Get thee away, get thee away
    This is the throne of Mammon grey, away
    I rose up at the dawn of day
    Get thee away, get thee away
    Pray'st thou for riches? Away!
    I rose up at the dawn of day
    Get thee away, get thee away
    This is the throne of Mammon grey, away

    "I rose up around 6-ish, or like 5:48, can you maybe scoot over a bit if that's alright with you? Oh, you're uh... Praying for riches, huh? Um... Maybe just... Not do that? Like I said, I woke up around 8 and ya know I don't really wanna deal with that right now, and uh... Yeah that spot's taken by a guy named Mammond Grey, can you maybe just... Look, there's a spot over there- No no, like, over there next to that person. Yeah, that's it. Thanks, sorry for the inconvenience"

  • @nox6687

    I don't know why, but this song makes me think of an exhausted exorcist/priest trudging through a dark castle, slapping demons with a staff to the beat.

    • @wrytte
      @wrytte 9 років тому +131

      +Mellifluous i use Google Play Music, a music streaming service similar to Spotify. I found this band through that service listening to Glass Animals Radio. I really recommend to listen to this bands' radio.
      A few from this band's radio are
      -Glass Animals
      -Max Frost
      -Sylvan Esso
      -Cathedrals
      All these bands are similar but have their own style to them. Keep that in mind when listening to them.

      +Mellifluous I found Cosmo Sheldrake through Spotify. When you use spotify a lot, it tracks down users with a similar taste in music and makes up a playlist with songs just for you. It's called Discover Weekly. A lot of the songs in those playlists are bad (it will suggest covers of songs) but every now and again a good artist, like Cosmo Sheldrake pops up. If you don't mind the ads, I think it's a pretty fun way to get to know new artists.

    • @MisPhantomhive
      @MisPhantomhive 7 років тому +62

      I'm sorry I'm replying so late... Artists like Alt-J, Woodkid, and Sylvan Esso come to mind. M83 is a little similar, too. And Gentle Mystics ;)

      I hummed the melody into googlesearch and finally found cosmo, i was so mad at myself bc I've listened to this song sooo often😂 so thanks for your comment, it's exactly the same melody

    this song makes me picture an ancient ruins at the top of a very tall mountain with a crumbling throne at the end where a forgotten god once sat. Legends speak of a legendary treasure that rests in these ruins but no one knows where the ruins lie. A forgotten god lost to time along with his ruined kingdom where only murmurs and folktales speak of this majestic place.

    • @bobbypierce6536

    Does this song remind anyone else of "This is Halloween" from Nightmare Before Christmas?
    Edit: Actually nvm, that's probably why everyone's talking about Tim Burton here

    The intro reminds me of the fly

      He uses music notes from The Fly multiple times throughout the song. However, they're cut off, or accelerated.
