Sigh No More

This is the title track of the debut album of Mumford & Sons, a quartet who emerged from the London folk scene that produced Laura Marling and Noah and the Whale.

This song along with the rest of the album was produced by Markus Dravs (Arcade Fire, Bjork, The Maccabees), who actively encouraged the band to be more instinctive, to be more themselves, and strengthen their already-powerful musical personality.

This powerful track references the romantic language of Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing, as the four men sing together in glorious unison: "Love it will not betray you, dismay or enslave you / It will set you free / Be more like the man you were made to be."
