about

Little Brown Cloud’ came to Michael and I when we were just hanging out. As the song developed, its carefree sound the meaning came to us. The song finds that the struggles of life are often inevitable, but it is how we face those challenges that truly shape us. ‘Little Brown Cloud’ is about moving life in the right direction, realizing the path taken, and appreciating the beauty along the way. As probably the most care-free sounding EMÆL song to date, it felt right for guitarist Michael Womack to take the lead vocal on this one. As the song ventures into stormier territory in the latter half I (Emmanuel Ventura-Cruess) return to the mic. This was a fun song for us because we really all collaborated together on its creation.

lyrics

Fallin’ on the bottom
Of the top of the road where I saw you last I won’t spend any details
All I got is where I am today
And I’m feelin’ like I wanna just run around and play Cuz the air is so free and I’ve got the feels for ya
And I’m feelin’ like I wanna just run around and play Cuz the air is so free and I’ve got the feels for ya

You are so gold
You keep yourself hidden like a treasure Like a measure of your worth
And I’m feelin’ like I wanna just run around and play Cuz the air is so free and I’ve got the feels for ya

How can I see in the dark
When in the sun I don’t know anything
I’m waiting to breathe in all the flavors of life
I feel like I’m missing out
Crooked and broken my body don’t feel a thing

Fallin’ on the bottom
Of the top of the road where I saw you last

When Sufjan Stevens and James Blake get in on the act, you know something is going on for a debut album. Big scope, cross genre neo soul and art pop mix with superlative vox to create a singular debut! Ralph Douglas
