798) Teleman - Song for a Seagull

Known for their versatile indie-rock style, members of the British band Teleman bring us something unique and thought-provoking with this sunny, philosophical track off of their third full-length album, "Family of Aliens". With a laid-back attitude and a simplistic set of instrumentals, they tell the story of a girl seeking shelter from society in a faraway place where no one can bother her. They cleverly paint images of the girl as a seagull soaring towards the ocean, but they also present the downsides of that freedom with phrases such as: "Should you fall / How to ever catch you? / Oh, the most incredible views / And no one to talk about it to". We find the piece quite intriguing and the delightfully casual video accompanying it, made to resemble an Instagram live stream in a London cab, to balance its thoughtful nature with light humor and unpretentiousness.
Enjoy! ♪
