"The recordings present a unique musical vision, with Xander Singh and Luc Laurent displaying an impressive mastery of their twisted but tasty pop...A treat-filled introduction to a duo unafraid to pound around on a variety of instruments such as trumpet, banjo, and piano...Singh and Laurent seamlessly blend their influences into a unified sound."

Clarinet Song
Pepper Rabbit Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feel just no pain
When it hurts too long
To go your own road
Which no one follows
You cannot come back
And we all start to laugh
Seeking silence living blindness
Everyone just cry
No more patience
The lyrics of Pepper Rabbit's song Clarinet Song is an abstract depiction of self-discovery, pain, and isolation. The first few lines suggest that the singer has come to a point of self-realization and has found their identity; they know their own name and feel no pain. However, the next line "when it hurts too long" suggests that this knowledge has not come easily; the singer has perhaps gone through a lot of suffering to reach this point.
The next few lines suggest a sense of loneliness and individualism, the idea of going one's own road which no one follows. This could indicate a path of creativity or a journey towards self-discovery that leaves the individual isolated from others who don't understand their journey. The last line "You cannot come back" perhaps refers to the idea that once you've gone down this road, there is no turning back. This can be interpreted as both liberating and frightening at the same time.
The lines "She talks just like a snowalker, and we all start to laugh" can suggest either mockery or admiration. The singer perhaps admires someone who talks like a "snowalker," someone who speaks with an unapologetic honesty, and vulnerability, while others dismiss or ridicule this person. The last line "no more patience" could indicate the singer's frustration with the world's lack of understanding or appreciation for individualism.
