New single?

[karnsculpture]

This lyric is really interesting, it seems to allude to real (?) events, but in the later verses I'm reminded of a number of past works so I wonder if this is intended to work on a personal and a fan-musician level.

I can't wait to hear it.

Coupled with the excellent "Where's Your Gravity?" this is potentially a great single, it'll be interesting to hear how that has been changed to make it the 2013 model.

I think his voice sounds different too.

"remastered version", the press release says. which means, identical to the one out on last year's compilation.

Interesting that you can only order this as a single item. I tried to order something else from the shop and was instructed to delete it from my shopping card!

[Blemished]

Has anyone else failed to receive a download link with their order?

Unless I misunderstood the website, this was supposed to come with email confirmation of order. Mine had no link and Samadhi have not yet responded to my query about this.

I don't think ANYONE got a link - David said they'll look into it today on his Facebook.

$35.00 in total , pretty steep for 2 songs..... will have to give this baby a miss...

They've sorted out the links - if you login to your Samadhi account you can access it from the order.

Very impressed so far - quite majestic in parts

Although am amazed at how different his voice is sounding

It's f**king beautiful. The lyric, music, strings...Sylvian's voice. It's sublime.

You could just buy the mp3 or flac files (they'll be available from September 16th).

P.S. You're right: $35,00 for 2 songs is a lot. But, heck, it's David Sylvian!

There's a four second sound about 2.20m in that just blows me away. Not sure what it is, sustained notes, but it's absolutely gorgeous and made me shiver. I have not responded like that to any song in years. It's a beautiful piece of music and fantastic song.

That kind of moment is what makes DS special to me, nobody else makes sounds like that out of a range of elements.

"Where's Your Gravity" sounds like a different mix to me, a few alternate sounds highlighted.

Hmmm... I just keep getting the error message "Safari cannot download this file". Need to try from my Microsoft machine at the office

love the track - both tracks - his voice is better treated than in a long time - just wished that Steve was there in the back tapping on some small drum.
