Mathew Sawyer is a new name to me, although this is apparently a track from his forthcoming third album, which will be out this year on Fire Records. On the strength of this track it should definitely be worth checking out some more of his work to see if it shares the same elements, as this manages to be refreshingly naive and somehow quite sophisticated at the same time. The lyrics refer to a "drawn out feeling", hence the elongated spelling of the title. It's endearingly lo-fi without being low quality, and features possibly the first use of a recorder in popular music since The Divine Comedy's 'Perfect Lovesong'
