#seal's apocalyptic rambles#tsv#sealapocalyptic says music related words#could I have cut it down? maybe. will I? No!#I have in my heart like a. fanfic academic paper about the folk music tradition of the followers of the trawlerman#maybe i'll write it someday#because I've spent a lot of time thinking about my tsv songs#and the recurring phrases/interconnectedness and how that its probably reflective#of the natural evolution of folk songs and you could connect them together#return to the river is explicitly. to me. an evangelism song that is new and drawing on those old tradtions#and yet recontextualizing them in a way that makes them fundementally more#idk palatable outside the context of people already in the faith yk?#anyway it's the fabled promised bride song I've been talking about#for a million years at this point
