10.29.13 - New Music - Vanessa Carlton

A bit country, a bit ambient pop, all weird. Vanessa Carlton has been away for a minute, and it seems she is gearing up to release a new album, although no word on a title, label, or when this might actually come out.

“I’ll Wait For You” is a promotional single, which means it isn’t meant for radio play and such, but mostly to peak people’s interests. The song is easily the oddest thing Carlton has ever released, and a far cry from her “1,000 Miles” days.

Not only is the song uniquely structured and sparse, but the video of a shirtless man dancing (?) with his back to the camera is…I don’t even know.

This is so out there, it has me interested. Gambled and won Vanessa.
