Dondante

James wrote it, and it closes the album at 8:01 with Broemel on saxophone, produced by Leckie and James at Allaire. In a Stereogum interview on October 21, 2021, while discussing Month of Sundays, James said that their guitarist Aaron Todovitch, who had died, became the inspiration for the song. NPR's World Cafe Backtracking feature in November 2025 has him talking about the late friend who inspired it and performing it; we could not read that page, and it is likely but not confirmed that it is the same friend. We found no source for what the word Dondante means. God Is in the TV's Loz Etheridge called it the behemoth of Z, with an otherworldly build of about three and a half minutes with James's falsetto.

The live version opens the second disc of Okonokos at 11:18, recorded at the Fillmore in San Francisco on November 11 and 12, 2005. MusicBrainz lists live recordings from Bonnaroo in 2005 and 2008, KCRW in November 2005, Austin City Limits on November 20, 2005, Madison Square Garden on December 31, 2008, Red Rocks in 2011 and 2012, Merriweather Post Pavilion in 2021 and the Beacon Theatre in 2023. It closed the Z-in-full set at the Hollywood Palladium on August 19, 2025 as a sprawling jam with saxophone. It was not a single, and we found no chart entry, video, covers or samples, nor a setlist.fm count.
