The artwork for this track and for each of the ten tracks on the forthcoming album as well as its cover in vinyl form was done is by Lyndsie Barnard.
It was recorded by Jim Barr at J&J Studios in Bristol.
I used to work at a film and photography hire studio in Bristol. If a shoot ran late, there was often nothing I needed to do but wait for the client to leave so that I could lock up and go home.
Gulls would nest on the flat roof of the studio from spring. There was a window from an office just above the studio roof through which you could watch them build their nest, see their chicks hatch and the parent gulls fly off in shifts, returning with scavenged food. By about August, the chicks would have flown the nest and it was ok to go out onto the roof and wait in the setting sun for whatever was being shot below to wrap.
Scully was conceived on such an occasion. It has nothing to do with Gillian Anderson's character in The X-Files.
