Cover art for Ditmas lyrics by Mumford & Sons

The time between "Babel" and "Wilder Minds" was a time of changes for Mumford and Sons, both musically and personally. On the musical front, they hit it big with "Babel", and earned them the coveted "Album of the Year" award at the Grammys. They also played Lollapalooza, the Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado, and had their "Gentlemen of the Road Stopover" Tour. They then went a different direction with their latest album, "Wilder Minds", to mixed reviews from critics and fans alike.

There were many changes on the personal front as well. Marcus got married in 2012, and he and his wife Carey Mulligan are now expecting their first child, and Ben is now engaged. The song basically says that whilst a lot of things about them changed, they're still the same M&S we all know and love.
