I looked up this Lanterns On The Lake you mention. Picked a song called Another Tale From Another English Town. The first few guitar notes and sound instantly brought to mind that version of Song To The Siren that Brendan Perry did for that Canadian radio thing a couple of years back. So I liked the start of the song. Thought the melancholic dreaminess of the song sounded a bit forced on first listen but it's ok. The female vocal sounds similar to someone I can't put my finger on and the music maybe a bit Sigur Ros in places. But yeah I like her voice and the lines she sings about just " wishing our lives away" and " wanting the quiet life " though I don't necessarily condone that attitude. Thank you.

Actually, I think I would have enjoyed the song immensely if I heard it for the first time when I'd been in the bath for 37 and a 1/2 minutes, you know, when the immersion in the water and the gentle sound of the soap bubbles popping starts to have the desired effect . As it was I was hunched over the computer .
