Liner Notes

It has been a good day for news stories...

Lyrics

Swallowed whole by a humpback whale
It sounds a most unlikely tale
Spat back out again, into the sea
I know because I saw it on the BBC

The world is full of wonders unseen
We don’t believe it with our eyes
We’re suspicious when we read the news
Hard to separate the lies

Swallowed whole by a humpback whale
A tale as old as time
Man eaten by a sea-snail
Only one of these is true, who knew?
A humpback whale
A likely tale
But I saw it,
It happened

I’m fascinated by this song, I guess I’ve had whales on my mind recently. The lyrics are incredibly intriguing and your voice and guitar are gentle and so melodic.

I really like the pace of this song. And your understated vocals make for a nice combo with the stripped down guitar. A really enjoyable listen.
