How to calculate inverse Laplace transform of $\frac{7s^2 + 3s +5}{(s^2-4s+29)(s^2+25)}$?

$$\mathcal{L}^{-1} \left\{ \frac{7s^2 + 3s +5}{(s^2-4s+29)(s^2+25)} \right\} = \text{?}$$

Anyone know how to calculate the inverse Laplace of this behemoth? The only approaches to calculating inverse Laplace transforms I know of are:

-factoring the denominator completely

-usig partial fractions to split up fraction

-adjusting form using algebraic manipulations (e.g. completing the square)

And after doing all that I'd hope that the form of the fraction matches that of one of the functions that are in my table. But doing these things doesn't seem to be effective for this fraction (doesn't put it into a known form), so I'm lost. I'm guessing there is some obscure manipulation I can do, but I can't find it

Edit: partial fractions gives:

$$ \frac{167s+305}{104(s^2 - 4s +29)} - \frac{167s+245}{104(s^2+25)} $$Not sure where to go from there...

We need to go a little further with the partial fractions. Note that$$\frac{As+B}{s^2+5^2}=\frac{A/2-iB/10}{s-5i}+\frac{A/2+iB/10}{s+5i}$$has inverse Laplace transform$$(A/2-iB/10)e^{5it}+(A/2+iB/10)e^{-5it}=A\cos5t+\frac{B}{5}\sin5t.$$Since $s^2-4s+29=(s-2)^2+5^2$, the other partial fraction admits a similar analysis.
