    "comment": "The album's title derives from the philosophical novel Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder, the context being,\n\n\"Only philosophers embark on this perilous expedition to the outermost reaches of language and existence. Some of them fall off, but others cling on desperately and yell at the people nestling deep in the snug softness, stuffing themselves with delicious food and drink. 'Ladies and Gentlemen,' they yell, 'we are floating in space!' But none of the people down there care.\"\n\nThe album itself was recorded shortly after the break-up of Spiritualized's Jason Pierce and Kate Radley, the band's keyboard player. Radley had secretly married Richard Ashcroft of The Verve in 1995.\n\nPierce, however, maintains that much of the album, including \"Broken Heart\" and \"Cool Waves,\" had been written before the breakup. \"If you write a song like ['Broken Heart'], you have to make it feel like what it's like to have a broken heart,\" he said. \"That's what making albums is all about. Otherwise it's just field recordings.\" https://tinyurl.com/ysfx3yuz",
