UK Shanty Lyrics


January always brings a fear of creatures
Strong-holdings and salt in places yet to heal
Crying at the site of strings
She was there when they came for you
A great man and the child in you
Enough when I take you far from here
Enough to cut a morning view

Strange how a sound could change your feelings
Staring wide and dirty breathing
I remember how a calling came in
Scared of deceiving and all I could hear was "Run!"

The fire, the fire

January always brings a fear of creatures
Strong-holdings and salt in places yet to heal
Crying at the site of strings
She was there when they came for you
A great man and the child in you
Enough when I take you far from here
Enough to cut a morning view

  • The song's music video was filmed along the Cornish coastline and stars the band's Cambridge contemporary Lily Cole as a mermaid. Asked by Rookie Creative how they got the model to be in the clip, violinist Neil Amin-Smith replied: "Lily's a friend of friend, and when Jack (Patterson, keyboards) decided he wanted a beautiful mermaid character asking her was a no-brainer! She was incredibly professional and generous with her time, especially as we were asking her to get in a murky pool outside in early January."
  • Clean Bandit almost accidentally electrocuted Lily Cole during the filming of the video. "In hindsight, maybe we should have had a couple of safety officers on board," Patterson told Billboard magazine with a smile. "But we take our videos very seriously. We are completely willing to die for them."
