Babel, 2012
Written by Ted Dwane, Ben Lovett, Winston Marshall and Marcus Mumford
Title trax!
The Tower of Babel as a metaphor. The narrator vows to tear down the walls someone built, perhaps around their heart. The song, it is said, it meant to be about the tendency of humans to be discontented with their lot and always wanting more, but I don't see that in the lyrics. I love the ferocity of the acoustic instruments and the growling, intense vocals. Amplifying power without amplifiers is always a great hook.
