Midlake – The Courage of Others

Look over there. What do you see? What’s that running through the woods? Over there! Is it a naked man? It can’t be. Yes, it is. It’s me. I’m naked! And you will be too after you have listened to Midlake.

Let’s smother our bodies in badger fat to keep us warm. I’ve made you a mask from rabbit skin and a hat from an old sheep’s skull. Smell the damp earth. Take a deep breath. Fill your lungs. Come run with me. Look around us at the woodland animals. They’re running with us too. There’s a deer. And there’s an wild boar. Run fast enough and we’ll rise into the air. We’ll fly with the eagles. We soar with the buzzards. Play your flute. I’ll gently strum my guitar. Together we will be happy. Forever.

Back again? Quiche is back – tell your friends! We haven’t had it for a while but our familiar friend is back. Yum!
