Presumably, the final mix of Fiona Apple’s “Every Single Night.” Posted to her Facebook page five minutes ago. You’re welcome.
This image popped up on Fiona Apple’s Facebook page a few minutes ago, along with a link to the handwritten lyrics. Could it mean “Every Single Night” will be The Idler Wheel’s lead single? It would be a wise choice, since the live version sounds pretty Florence-and-the-Machiney, and Flo has been nominated for no less than 5 dozen awards in the past 3 years.
I’m quite sure this is Fiona’s own artwork, as well. Stylistically, it fits with her original art that’s been showcased in music videos like “Limp” and that appeared on the wall in Claudia’s apartment in Magnolia. I just spent the past 26 minutes searching for these images so I could prove it to you, but haven’t found them yet. If anyone has any JPEGs, please send them!
Fiona Apple has tour dates, and aren’t you lucky, you North American jerks.

And how, it’s the cover art for Fiona Apple’s new album, The Idler Wheel is wiser than the Driver of the Screw, and Whipping Cords will serve you more than Ropes will ever do. Fi’s cranked up the cray with this fractal self-portrait that totally makes sense with some of The Idler Wheel’s lyrical content, like “every single night’s a fight with my brain” (“Every Single Night”) and “while you were watching someone else, I stared at you and cut myself” (“Valentine”).
Fiona* posted the image on her Facebook page today, along with an official release date - June 26, 2012 - and the album’s track listing:
01 Every Single Night
02 Daredevil
03 Valentine
04 Jonathan
05 Left Alone
06 Werewolf
07 Periphery
08 Regret
09 Anything We Want
10 Hot Knife
*”Fiona Apple” the brand, not Fiona Apple the person. With the numerous times she’s said she avoids going online and/or reading any press about herself, I’m confident the artist is not the OP.
Because I was not there. Read Maura Johnston’s wonderfully written review of Fiona Apple’s Bowery Ballroom show if you are as into masochism as I apparently am.
In celebration of Record Store Day (April 21) Fiona Apple and Sara Watkins will release a limited edition 7” of their rendition of The Everly Brother’s “You’re the One I Love.” The cut is from Watkin’s upcoming album, “Sun Midnight Sun.” Preview it right hyah, if you can handle that:
The vinyl is gorgeous, by the way.
Check out the sick list of nearly 300 Record Store Day releases, courtesy of Wax Poetic. Or don’t, because there’s no way you have that much money.
If this was an actual setlist (looks like it) We might have 3 new song titles from The Idler Wheel…: Werewolf, Daredevil & Periphery.
(In case you didn’t notice the image is flipped :P)
I don’t know anything about the legitimacy of this photo and I would like to think that Fiona Apple isn’t using Comic Sans for her set lists, so here’s video footage of three new songs debuted at SXSW. Thanks to Jason Jude for filming and uploading these in HD: 1) “Anything We Want” 2) “Every Single Night” 3) “Valentine”
This photo appeared on Fiona Apple’s Facebook page yesterday, with no caption or leading information. The poem, it was announced earlier, is the title of her new, release-date-still-TBA record. Yes, another album title that’s an entire poem. I wouldn’t be surprised if this photo of notepaper turns out to be the new record’s cover art. The cover of her last album was a photograph she took of a flower, which she chose because, she said, it got her out of having to do another photo shoot. Homegirl’s never particularly enjoyed a photo shoot.
The more I live with it, the more I like this stanza she’s penned. Fi’s still playing with the nautical theme she’s often visited (see “Sullen Girl,” “O’ Sailor”), and still evincing her own theories about desistance propelling self-actualization (“Waltz,” “Extraordinary Machine”). I especially like the last idea, “whipping cords will serve you more than ropes will ever do.” Whipping cords or whipping knots, for all you landlubbers, are the special binding at the end of a rope that keeps it from fraying or unraveling. That Fiona Apple’s one smart cookie.
