Do you think "Where are you now?" is not going to be on the new album, or that it has another name :)?

- Asked by m-perrys

Hello! I’ve already received three messages regarding the fact that “Where Are You Now” is missing from the album track list of Babel, in addition to “Home”/”Meet Me Tomorrow”. Only time will tell the fate of these songs, but it’s possible they may be on the album under new names. It’s also quite possible that they could be released as the B-side tracks on any singles released by the band, which is how “To Darkness”, “Hold On To What You Believe”, and “Untitled”/”Nothing is Written” (now presumably “I Will Wait” on the new album) were originally released; check out the Discography for more details. 

Thanks for the question!

I saw the video you just posted of them performing Sister. Do you think it'll be on the new album? I love that song so much. . .

- Asked by Anonymous

Hello! That video is great, isn’t it? In all honesty, I doubt “Sister” will be on the new album; it’s not actually a new song, as it was released on Mumford & Sons’ second EP Love Your Ground in 2008, and then the band released a “new studio version” soon after. Similarly:

…I doubt they’d release “Liar” again, too. The only song that’s been confirmed to be on the new album is “Below My Feet.” Everything else is still up in the air, though the list in that last question has great potential. I will say, however, that “Broken Crown” samples the original “To Darkness,” so it’s highly unlikely that “To Darkness” will be included; it was already released on the “Little Lion Man” single, anyway. “Feel the Tide” is one of the band’s oldest songs, and it was also included on the Love Your Ground EP, so that most likely will not be on the new album, either. Furthermore, it would seem you are correct that “Home” will probably not make it onto the new album (unless the band are pulling one over on everyone!). As far as new, “unheard” songs are concerned, who knows? The band have said that they like to “play in” their new material, but perhaps they’ve held back a song or two.

All of this is to say that only time will tell what will end up on the new album. September 24th is getting closer every day!

to darkness and broken crown?

- Asked by Anonymous

Alright, I figured that’s what you meant, but I don’t like to assume things. :)

It is difficult, with unreleased songs, to say that any lyrics located anywhere are “accurate” at the moment.  The Mumfords often change lyrics from gig to gig and always say that the new songs are works in progress, without official names, and sometimes that they don’t even have any real lyrics yet.

With all that said, I believe you can find fairly accurate (I won’t say completely accurate) lyrics to “Broken Crown” here at gentlemenoftheroad, and for “To Darkness” here.

Please keep in mind that none of these lyrics are set in stone until released officially.  I hope this helps!
