Taken from their latest album 'Rock Dust Light Star'.I was hoping that they would release "All Good In The Hood" as their next single,but I guess the record label wants to play it safe.

I'm not sure I understand how and why this album is being sold as it is, not for purchase as a digital download over at iTunes (not in USA I guess) or Amazon. Tho' you can purchase it for an outrageous price for a hard copy.

I was wondering that myself. It's the main reason why I don't have my copy of the album yet.

I didn´t like the song the first time around, but it´s growing on me.

My husband found it weeks ago over at Overstock . . . looking for something else.

this is the first song by them that doesn't sound like all their others

(as far as what i have have heard from them anyway)

i actually quite like it

Sounds like an old Lenny Kravitz track.

Those outrageously priced copies on Amazon are all imports. The album's not been given a US release, thus it's not on iTunes US. Their last studio album was released in the US 3 months after it dropped in the UK. I guess that's become the norm for them. Maybe their planning some US promotion for this one. That would be a nice change. But honestly, in this day and age where just about everyone around the world has immediate access to almost anything via the internet, what's the point of having regional release dates that are months apart? Let the people who want to buy it buy it at a reasonable price. Every import sale is just one less domestic sale.

Agreed and I thought as much, hence my confusion of why they chose this course. . . a staggard release. We've been listening to the Jamiroqui's album for over 2 month on the org via U-Tube. Even so, I bought it from Overstock and really like it.

It's a shame the way this album's release was handled.I had to shell out around $40 for an import copy.And after all these months,it still hasn't been released in America
