"To not take an audible breath any more"

The first song I heard from this 2010 record of Mumford And Sons "Sigh No More" was "white blank page." This is one of the lesser known songs on this album, but one of the best. Finding an interest in this new found band, I looked them up on Itunes. I found, that the song itself "sigh no more" was on Itunes free songs of the day. So without haste I downloaded it. I didn't really know what I had signed up for. But I soon began to realize that this was a full time job. I could NOT stop listening to the album on YouTube! The mix of Irish, pop, rock, whatever, flooded my head for the next 2 weeks.

I believe that the radio station's abused the charm of some of the songs such as "Little lion man" and "The Cave" for they couldn't stop playing them, so after 4 months of hearing them every time you got in the car, I got sick of them. But that does not excuse the beautiful lyrics, and music that fill these addictive tracks. The sweet sound of lead singer (Marcus Mumfords )voice coupled with the harmony and bass, with a side of the occasional banjo, I would urge you to pick this album up at your nearby record store, and just see what you've been missing.
