So... I hate to be a grammar nazi, but is it Rabbits on the Run (as in several, how V stated the album title), or Rabbit's on the Run (as in a singular possessive, as was posted on Razor and Tie's tweet)?

Anyway, yay Carousel (and May birthday buddies!)! They also hinted more tracks may be coming sooner than later, "if you're nice."

just the single.

there's no way that would also be the album artwork.

it was specifically designed for that song, thus the rabbit-carousel illustration and of course "CAROUSEL" on it. lol. :P

Since she's done the album art in the past, I think she def did this.

I doubt it. They just started filming, so it'll be a few weeks (probably after Carousel is released) before we see the video. Razor & Tie might post some pics in a few days, but I doubt they will today. Unless Nessa takes pics of her own and posts them.

I love Vanessa's music videos! I thought the Nolita Fairytale video was pretty magical, even though you can't really relate to the song itself totally XD

I think I may listen to the sample over and over for awhile. I hope the Play Sample button won't break :P

*added* I noticed that a few of her albums on amazon.com are nearly out of stock so I guess a lot of people are buying her albums now which is pretty good :D

I think it would be nice to stick with the carousel style and have photos in the booklet instead.  The rabbit illustration is kind of a trademark for the album i think:)

Haha yes! :D I think I might just download the mp3 even though I'm not a "singles" kind of person, I want the album but I don't want to wait over a month for the full album :P I think Vanessa is one of the few singers/bands that I listened to for 10 years at least.

It is amusing when you realize how close something is when you only need one hand to count. I'mma dork but I love that :D

I think it's seven weeks until the album is out by now since a week has passed since the 21st of this month :P

I highly suggest actually purchasing the single and the album and supporting Vanessa.


We all want another album, and we all know how Heroes & Thieves was already almost her last.

Rabbits on the Run needs all the support it can get.

I agree with that, KULP. V needs the support. She deserves it.

I swear, I'd hunt down Rabbits here on the Philippines. Even if that may mean that I would be needed to hop from one mall to another in the metro.

lol, ofcourse we support Vanessa, are we mad? But if people cannot purchase the single NOW what would u suggest? And i belive that theres nothing bad in sharing. That way it gets to more and more people and then those will be the ones going to concerts and buying the album as well and thats what we want. ^^ Seriously, you people need to get over that "piracy guilty" thing.

I will buy the single if it lets me.

It will be May 3 in Japan in 1h30. If you're not patient, you can use a Japanese web proxy such as eJapan (http://www.ejapan.eu/blue/), type Amazon.co.jp and buy Carousel.

yep! Same here! if I cant buy it I will just get it somehow! I have never used amazon or iTunes but I can give it a try.  I would definitly buy the Cd when it comes out.
Title: Re: Carousel: May 3
Post by: Rabbits_on_the_run on May 02, 2011, 06:57:31 am
same for me. If i CAN'T buy a song, because the online store doesn't allow me to, and if it is Vanessa, I need to get it by another way. Of course I'll buy the record at least 2-3 times when it comes out and even if it isn't released in my country.

I say get it any way you can. We are all Nessaholics and support V when we can, but if you don't have the money or can't purchase it for some reason, download it for free. I'm sure if Nessa had to choose between not buying it and downloading for free, she'd choose the latter.

Weisz, I love the animated Rabbits sig! :D

Yup, couldnt agree more, i think the most important thing is that the song/album reaches to as many people as it can, wichever the way ^^

I am in a dilemma. I live outside the U.S. I don't have any credit cards.

Does anyone know other possible ways of payment for this kind of transactions? It's my first time, so...

I'm not sure if you have this over there, but here we can buy gift cards that work like credit cards, so you purchase it in cash at a store then you can use it online.  Or, if you don't mind using I tunes, you can buy Itunes gift cards also purchased at a store (like Walmart or catch-all store like that) or gas stations sometimes have them as well.

I highly suggest actually purchasing the single and the album and supporting Vanessa.


We all want another album, and we all know how Heroes & Thieves was already almost her last.

Rabbits on the Run needs all the support it can get.
Sorry, I will not pay for mp3s, that's my policy. I'm willing to buy a physical single though and several copies of ROTR (cd/vinyl/other).

Just fyi, Amazon.co.jp won't let you buy the single unless you have a Japanese IP address (or use a proxy like jeremy said).

Re: buying singles on iTunes: My experience is even when you buy a single on iTunes if you buy the album it discounts the price of the total album. And please, it's what .99 maybe $1.29? It's V for goodness sake!! It's been YEARS, I am sure it's worth it and well we need to show support for the single/album with sales. I understand you're buying the CD or what not but...

Upload the song to youtube would be dumb, cause it will probably get removed and it loses quality. id be better to upload the song to a hosting, mediafire, megaupload, rapidshare, even dropbox, etc ^^

It's not like there aren't official songs uploaded multiple times to YT all the time that stay up for months, and from much bigger artists. It's not that big of a deal.

And btw, I have every intention of buying it. I just don't want to sit here reading OH IT'S BEAUTIFUL AND I LOVE THIS PART AND THIS PART and not be able to hear it for myself because of time zones. I'll be buying it as soon as it's up on US itunes.

And tbh, it's not like very many people outside of this forum know that it's being released anyway and are waiting on the edge of their seat for a download link and never plan on paying for it. People who don't pay for music won't, no matter how long they have to wait for the song, so putting it up here early isn't going to affect anything. By the time, and if it does, get spread around, it will already be available for purchase, so people will have that option.

The version I downloaded from Amazon is a 190kbps variable bit rate MP3, encoded with LAME (which is a pretty well regarded MP3 encoder). I'm not the world's biggest audiophile, but it sounded very good to me. So I definitely wouldn't say they messed up the quality in any way.

lol! so true, but I'm glad we had that snippet, it was very exciting.  I can't wait to hear the claps people are talking about and the childrens choir on this one? I was kind of expecting that but couldn't quite guess where they would fit in especially after we had the clip.  thanks for the info!

No problem! I was lucky enough to snag a quick listen from Jeremy, and the claps are really cute. I only heard about 1/2 the song though. D:

US peeps...is it on Itunes? I don't see it! Very excited to hear it.  I think I can wait.  I was very distracted today so that helps!  I think it's only fair the Europeans get the single first seeing how it's harder for them to come to the US to see her play live!

nope you're not the last, I just did.  And since I'm on vacation with my husband for our annivesary, I can't listen to it very much :(  every time I get on the computer he says, are you vanessaholicking now?  The only reason I brought the laptop with us was for this day :)  I can't wait to go home and listen to it more and more and more and more.  
My first thought though is YES I love it. but I wish I could hear her more on the bridge :(  though the choir is a nice touch.

We were at dinner for our anniversary and he says, and because I love you so much (and he looks past me and lifts his hand) I got Vanessa Carlton to come and sing for you.  I believed him for a SPLIT second.  I told him not to toy with my heart like that, but it was very funny.  Just thought I'd share, I know it's not related to Carousel..

Just bought and heard the song. Wow. Amazing. Not only did we hear V's first single but we also heard the beginning of her record, that's so magical. Can't wait for more. I'm so in love with the song, well I already was but also with the production, with V's voice. Everything's incredible. I love the choir as well and it makes it even more magical when it stops and all you hear is V's voice :) Genius, thank you Vanessa :):):)

for the clap thing, you (I mean people who are able to go, I probably won't, living in Europe and just coming hom from the States yesterday...) should totally do it. Last week I was in NYC at a Kate Voegele show and I don't know if some of you are familiar with her song "Angel" but there's a part in which she sings two parts at the same time and when she obviously can't do that live some 15 years old groupie sung it, it sounded pretty good :)

Yeah, I love the song, too. It's excellent, but I can't help but think what it would've sounded like had it been done with ProTools. The childrens choir is my favorite part, and I thought there should've been a few more claps.

Carousel is up to 53 reviews on iTunes already. I didn't give a review yet, and I suspect most people don't give reviews when they purchase from the store, so 53 is only the lowest estimate.

I was all prepared to say this sucks rabbit balls.

If she actually promoted this, it could almost be as big as Million Miles. I could hear this is a lot of movies and shopping malls.

I'm disappointed they don't offer any HQ download of the song (like .flac or .wav). I tweeted the label and they said only regular DSPs. Boo.

Someone posted that Amazon's mp3 is like 192 kbps vbr? Meh, that's pretty low quality. And I don't do itunes. I don't know what to do, I'm not sure a LQ mp3 is worth .89 euros... ??? Why can't we get a physical single?  :-\

I do LOVE the song though. Very much.

Post by: Rabbits_on_the_run on May 03, 2011, 09:13:22 am
Comparing this to A thousand miles?? No way... I think the only way this song (and album) could be a huge success is if people finally see her as a grown-up artist who sings for a mature audience. The fact that she signed with Razor and Tie is already a good sign :) I want V to have a Norah Jones-like career :) This album is gonna be my favorite thing in the world. Can't wait for summer!! I usually don't but this time it's different :)

Oh and I really need to play this song on the piano. Were the sheets already done for this?

On Amazon, the encoder settings are actually VBR -V0. We can't have a better quality with the LAME encoder and a CBR is unnecessary. There is a free format of mp3 which allow higher bit rate values (such as 640 kbps) but has limited player support. I don't know for iTunes but it might be an AAC audio (m4a). With a similar bit rate, I think that the AAC codec is better than the MP3.

@jérémy, ok, so that's 256 kbps vbr then. Meh.

My itunes file is 256kbps AAC m4a as you said. I dont think we can expect more at this point Ghisy :S

I completely agree with that. What a way to dumb down music quality, huh? Vanessa recorded this album on analog tape and we get LQ mp3s, what is wrong with the world?  ???

@Weisz, thanks for your feedback. We won't get better, Razor & Tie confirmed it to me.

But sorry, we're kinda being off topic here, back to Carousel now!

Just finally got into my house after being locked out for 5 hours, so I've only just bought it.

I set 'Carousel' as my ringtone!
while working in my computer I heard the song playing
but the intro kept coming and coming
and I was like: OMG! its suck in my head

Dont set up carousel as your ringtone!

This exactly. Analogue shouldn't be used if it hampers audio quality. And she's always had great audio quality. I know she was going for a more indie approach, but I personally think Heroes and Thieves had a nicer sound. xD;

That being said, Carousel is a fantastic song. I just wish it was recorded a bit better. The children's claps sound tinny. D:

The video that was on Vevo of the song just streaming said that the album would be availible on iTunes May 31st...does that mean to pre-order on May 31st or to buy the whole album?  And then the physical release will be June 21st? 

That would be pretty smart marketing to release the album digitally on the 31st and then the physical copy on June 21st because that would drive hardcore fans to purchase the album twice..both in a digital and physical copy...which I don't mind doing these days because typically CD's are less then 8 bucks the first week of release...especially indie releases.

i can think of some reasons
1) they finally realized how easy it is to steal music from youtube
2) replace the video with just a picture for the actual music video.
3) the song is already on Vanessacarlton.com through soundcloud, perhaps they think doing it this way is better than youtube...or that it should be the only way.

yes, but I think they think that by having only on soundcloud (private upload) through vanessacarlton.com (because you need the specific URL to find the song on soundcloud)
and by having people "share" the song before they can listen or whatever, that it will be spread better this way because people will be sharing it.

...I donno. It'll be back on youtube sooner or later when the music video is released anyway.
Title: Re: Carousel: May 3

While I can understand that, from a personal point of view I have discovered so many new artists and music through youtube, it is a great advertising tool for artists to create awareness, if I like a song I have not heard before, I will always go and buy it.

Carousel on soundcloud is no longer a private track.

you can listen by going to http://soundcloud.com/vanessacarlton
and this also means that posting the song to facebook (for example) will actually let people be able to hear the song if they click that play button..
whereas before if you did that, the song would not play unless they actually went to the link.
