‘Scorpion’ is inspired by a line from Macbeth: “O, full of scorpions is my mind.” The song reflects feelings of guilt, anxiety and despair, tracing the emotional fallout of a parent’s fear of estrangement from their teenage children following divorce.

Líban’s story dates from sixth-century Ireland and has been preserved in early writings and in the oral tradition of storytelling, scéalaíocht. The Annals of the Four Masters tells of a wondrous happening in 558: ‘In this year was taken the mermaid, Líban … in the net of Beoan, son of Inli, the fisherman of Comghall of Beannchair.’ The Annals also record that Líban was baptised by Comgall and given the name Muirgen, which means ‘born of the sea’.
Líban was the daughter of Eochaidh, king of Ulster. She and her pet dog were the only survivors when Eochaidh’s palace and lands were flooded. In her loneliness she prayed to the goddess Danu asking to be turned into a salmon so she might swim with the fish of the sea for company. But Danu only half granted her wish. The little dog became an otter, and Líban was transformed into a mermaid. For three hundred years she was adrift in the sea until she was brought ashore to Comgall.
