SummersRadio™ New Music! Gossip - 'Perfect World'/ 'Standing In The Way Of Control' (Tronik Youth Remix)/ 'Heavy Cross' (Burns Remix)
Portland's Gossip (now sans 'The') have just released their new single online today! 'Perfect World' is the first single from their forthcoming fifth album which is called 'A Joyful Noise' and is set for release on May 22nd. The eleven track album is produced by Brian Higgins aka Xenomania and 'Perfect World' is available on itunes as of today.
I have mixed feelings on this song - Beth Ditto's vocals sound amazing as always -but I find the musical backing terribly ordinary. I reckon that this has more to do with the 'hit' producer than the band itself. Regardless, I should mention that this is not unprecedented - although I'm indeed a fan of the band I tend to favor some of their remixes over some of the regular singles themselves. Thus I look forward to some remixes of this new single - and in the meantime I will feature a couple of remixes of their earlier tracks as well!
For now - this is the first taste of their new album - this is 'Perfect World'... Enjoy!
Bonus Track #1! 'Standing In The Way Of Control' was Gossip's breakthrough single - although it took a couple years to do so. It was first released as a single in North America in 2005, it was released in the U.K. the following year, and then it reached the top 10 when it was re-released in 2007. This remix is from the 2006 U.K. 12" single - this is the 'Tronik Youth Remix'... Enjoy!
Bonus Track #2! 'Heavy Cross' was the first single released from their 2009 album 'Music For Men' - this is the excellent 'Burns Remix'... Enjoy!
