So You Say

Siobhan Donaghy. 'So You Say', Ghosts



On the one hand Siobhan is underated, and on the other shes been gaining exposure all over the internet as people champion her work. So maybe a few low chart positions have helped to make her fans even more vocal and like the slow creep of evangleicalism it eventually make us all worship her album.

In some ways the single choices are a little odd... in that they are niether the most conventional radio friendly tracks, of which there are some on the album, nor are they representative of the leftfield, almost avantgarde work, to be found in the latter half of the album. A different option may have provided a catalyst to getting higher chart positions if thats what she's after? Rumoured third single 'Medevac' may do just that?

The early album leak has spread word of mouth and garnered new fans. So while everyone else goes off to buy the physical album finally out this week, to keep the rest of us ticking over till rumoured album number 3? there are two new tracks available on itunes, live versions of some tracks, here, (including a cover of Nutini's 'Last request') and the CD inlay complete with backwards lyrics for 'Ghosts' that must be rehearsed.
