Please, jamily, check your postings and think before you post links!! Do not publish links to illegal downloads. The song is available for pay-download on several places. If you have no creditcard - well you can also pay with other pay-systems, for example paypal - at paypal you can register with a normal bank-account. To have no creditcard is no excuse to spread the song all over the net! I can understand if you share it with 2 or 3 friends in private, but by uploading it to youtube or other places, to which all people in the world have access to, is just not fair to Jamiroquai. Real fans don't do this!
So, please check your postings here again and delete links to illegal downloads, otherwise me and the moderators/officers have to move/delete/edit postings and threads.
Jamirotalk does support Jamiroquai, and so should the Jamily!!!
Thanks!! |
Amen to this!

It's soooo weird - they better live than they have been in the past 10 years and on the other hand they produce pop songs. I wonder if they will be allowed to play WKR on the South American tour now that it has been released. |

Really weird to play old songs tighter than ever live, to promote album as live and organic - and then we get this. I'm really stunned. I'm also worried about the rest of the album songs, despite of the live feeling that surely must be there as promised (not actualized on WKR). The other annoyance is the naiveté that is present on both WKR and RDLS. 
If WKR is just a bonus track, I will be jumping of joy!

Thanks Sandra  , I've checked the download options available on the page but no news yet.
The version at Virgin Mega has MP3 coding at the highest quality 320 Kbps (total 8.21 MBytes), best version available so far? |
The link posted earlier from the Dutch website is also encoded at 320 Kbps. I find the quality to be more than acceptable as I don't even rip my own cds that that high of a quality setting. |

Thanks for the feedback, I'm trying to assess which one is the best way to get the track. I can't understand why stores keep selling compressed digital downloads, I'm glad to pay for quality.

| No video? your kidding? How do you know? For the rest, I agree with you.. |
Universal says the first single is gonna be Blue Skies in November - this track is solely for the radios and DJs. That's why I suppose no video will be shoot for this. |
Every recording contract, even new, ALWAYS have a few annoying wrinkles....but yeah, they couldn't do a video for this one, would be the CG MV all the over again, give or take 2 unintentionally crashed Lamborginis . |

What I still don't get: Is this online release really official??
Well, I paid for it, even two times... so to have it, seems to be ok, even if it has been leaked too early, because the band gets my money in the end.
But what I don't really understand now is, that fans (?) are now uploading the song on facebook while having bandbembers in their friendlist... and even tag some of them to the song!  Is it just me, or don't you think this is kinda disrespectful? I have a strange feeling when I see that, and wonder how Rob and Derrick for example feel when they see this...  |

Why do I feel kinda regret after buying this track even it may not be an official release?
This may not be in their plans. I believe that this song was leaked.  Did this happen with when FJLIS was released?

I think exactly the same, and then they call themselves fans... |

The lack of respect you see everywhere is one of the reasons why I am more often than not ashamed to be a human being...
I used the same reasoning as you, they get my money and that's what matters most. And if it wasn't supposed to be released yesterday at least thanks to us, they know which sites did it.
But to take something and treat it as if it is your own... and even be ignorant (stupid?) enough to tag the band members just blows my mind. |

I saw that this morning (video tagged to Rob Harris) and wondered why someone would be so stupid. I guess any group will have inconsiderate fans, even if they mean no harm. |

I'm glad to see that people are at least talking about morality here... Over on funkin.com there are a bunch of people complaining about this song (which I myself do not understand, it's a song, not the end of the world).
I'm not sure this release is official or not, and sadly I cannot purchase the song because the websites do not allow me access (possibly due to my internet browser) but my justification of "listening" to it is that when the single or album is actually released (and when the shop on Jamiroquai.com is fixed... someone get on that ) I'll purchase it... that's because I'm a fan...
Similar to the A Funk Odyssey Test Pressing (yes, that sounds incorrect)... yes I have it, but if Jamiroquai were to officially release tomorrow, I'd buy it... Same goes for this song... So if your like me and you have purchased it/listened to it/etc., but you know that your actually going to buy the album I see no harm cause the money goes to the rightful hands in the end (STRAIGHT TO THE BEST BAND EVER WOO!)... and when they come to Canada I'll go to every single concert... just like most of you will probably go to the concerts...
As for those few special people on Facebook, they might have done it to inform the band of this release... but who knows...
