It's funny people are saying that because (although I have no way of knowing currently whether he co-wrote this particular song or not) I can clearly hear aspects of Damo's sensibility in virtually every aspect of it on the very first listen:

The muted repetitive guitar rhythm a la YSBH, the prettiness of the chorus, the wandering cello and piano lines, the controlled chaos in the noise layering, the gradual build, the bridge (substitute Damo's voice singing it while playing piano), that climactic passionate scream, all those horns and the sing-songy quality to the extended instrumental outro is reminiscent of several of his newer songs.
