Newsom: new songs
- Artists:
- Joanna Newsom »
Hardly likely to steal that 'voice of an angel' title away from beer-guzzling preggers twenty-summin Charlotte Church any time soon though she is, Joanna Newsom nevertheless turned a lot of critical heads last year with her Ys collection. It looked pretty, and at times it sounded pretty. At times.
But anyway, now she's got some new material coming out. Hurray? Yep, if you're one of the many that voted Ys DiS's album of 2006 (here). The Joanna Newsom and the Ys Street Band EP is released through Drag City on April 24. It features a brand new song, 'Colleen', plus a couple of older tracks given the re-working treatment.
The tracklisting looks like this:
'Colleen'
'Clam, Crab, Cockle, Cowrie' (new version)
'Cosmia' (new version)
Ys is pronounced 'eeees', you see? Some fools insist it's not, even though I told 'em how to say it months ago. If you're one of those fools: owned.

Share on FacebookI really hope this is the new one I saw in Manchester
with the "Ha!" sounds. That was so amazing
let's double-team him?
and my stance on the name thing is: 'ease'?
it is that song..
it was quite good. alright, very good.
word
this makes me EXCITED!
double-team?
uhoh.
i cant believe
i actually have tickets in my drawer that say that i get to sit at the front row of the london show. its actually stupid.
it's pronounced
'yizz' as in "i'll fockin' keel yizz".
"At times"
Yep, I'd go along with that
Im never going to get to see her live
ever.
i swear.
im cursed.
I fell in love with her...
when I first heard The Milk Eyed Mender but I called it all off after Ys. Now that her backing band is called The Ys Street Band, she's totally my girl again.
<3
congrats
I have tickets in my drawer saying I'm watching from approx. a mile up in the sky
i wonder if the review for this
will be as much as a lolfest as 'Ys' was.. I can only hope.
are you sure it's
pronounced eeees?
cos iv've heard it's 'whys'
but i thought it was a sorta yuz sound.
now eeees.
i'm not sure anyone can be certain.
Will the new version of
Clam, Crab, Cockle, Cowrie be all orchestral? That might be interesting.
