Shiina Ringo - Soil&"Pimp"Sessions Collaboration

I completely forgot about this piece of news. Well, it has been annouced that Ringo would be featured in Soil&"Pimp"Sessions new album, called 6, but only recently have more details been released. And the album is hitting stores pretty soon! Anyway, here's the tracklist:


Album: 6
Band: Soil&"Pimp"Sessions
Release Date: 2009.09.16
1 - SEVEN (Intro Sound Collage by DJKENTARO)
2 - KEIZOKU
3 - PAPA’S GOT A BRAND NEW PIGBAG
4 - MY FOOLISH HEART ~crazy in mind~
5 - DOUBLE TROUBLE
6 - POP KORN
7 - QUARTZ AND CHRONOMETER
8 - PARAISO
9 - MY FOOLISH HEART ~crazy on earth~×椎名林檎
10 - MIRROR BOY
11 - “STOLEN MOMENTS” featuring Jamie Cullum
12 - AFTER THE PARTY
13 - 殺戮と平和 (Satsuriku to Heiwa)

So the song is called "MY FOOLISH HEART ~crazy on earth~×椎名林檎" and the lyrics will be in english. There is some kind of connection between track 4 and 9, something like one is instrumental only and the other has vocals... I guess we'll have to wait for September 16 to be sure of this.

PS - Apparently Blogger is not OK with using the sign "&" on tags, so I'll have to write "Soil and Pimp Sessions". Sorry!

UPDATE!
I should have done this before making this post, but well... nothing I can do now except update. With exciting additions!
So it seems the Ringo collaboration has been playing in some japanese radios for at least 2 weeks, so the full version must be around somewhere. For now, here's what I found: 30 seconds previews for track 4 and 9.

9 - MY FOOLISH HEART ~crazy on earth~×椎名林檎 (preview)

This confirms that track 4 is in fact a more up-tempo arrangement of track 9. And I got to admit, altough kind of perplexed at first, I'm loving Ringo's participation. Completely different from anything we heard before, right? I just think her voice is a bit too low, but maybe it's just in the preview.
Also, here's the link to the site where you can hear the previews for every track in the album. Let's hope I don't get in any trouble for linking their site...

PS - The tags of the WMAs are unchanged, except that I added the album name and track numbers. I'm saying this because they are different from the ones found on Soil&"Pimp"Session's official website, which I have used in this posts. Those are the correct tags.

  4. I'm not 100% sure, but I'm guessing it was a Soil member and not Ringo. I know that doesn't answer your question, but just wanted to say that I'm almost certain Ringo didn't do it :)
