I hadn't seen this mentioned here yet. The first track from their July 2021 release. Also the first, I believe, with the revised lineup.
David Longdon says this of the new song: "This is unashamedly a love song. It is about finding things that we share and have in common with other people. When my partner and I first came together as a couple, we lived not far from Avebury, a very Big Big Train kind of place. The chalk hills and standing stones were part of the imagery of our Folklore album, and once again I was writing what was literally happening in the location that we found ourselves in. I remember seeing my white chalk dust footprints upon the black of the car mats after we'd been walking around Avebury. I'm pleased that we both get to have this time with each other and Common Ground is about finding out the things that we have in common with each other and deciding what we want to do in life together."
I also saw this exciting posting on their Facebook page:
The band will also be on tour across North America in 2022. Details will be announced in the coming weeks.
