(sort of) new bishi song

Bishi just released a new version of "On My Own Again"... compared to the one from Nights At The Circus, this new version features strings and it is more electronic/disco sounding.

diamonds on display to the hungry and confused

Bishi’s debut album, Nights At The Circus is one of the most original records of the year. Bishi’s style is quite extraordinary: she mixes Indian folk music with pop/dance elements... indeed, (other than The Beatles’ "Within You Without You") there is probably nothing in your music library that sounds even remotely similar to anything on Nights At The Circus. I have known about Bishi for a long time now simply because Patrick Wolf had mentioned about her in numerous occasions; however, it was not untill exactly a week ago that I got to hear/witness her remarkable talent when she opened for Patrick Wolf. I have been listening to Bishi’s debut record non-stop since then because it is just so refreshing and catchy! Listen to the opening track, "Nights Circus" just a few times and I can assure you that the sitar melodies as well as the lyrics "nights at the circus, day at the fair, take me there, take me there" will be struck in your head for days. Be cautious, you will fall madly in love with Bishi as Nights At The Circus is a perfect pop sensation!

Beirut: The Flying Club Cup
Beirut brings forth a bigger, more romantic, and more ambitious approach than Gulag Orkestar. The new record is notably epic and dramatic, the sound is grand and it gives the effect of an overall communal feeling. Zach Condon’s immeasurable vision has made The Flying Club Cup a musical spectacle!
