As you know already, what’s special about the first single Jet Lag is that it will be available in two versions on the new Simple Plan album: once in English (featuring Natasha Bedingfield), and once in French (featuring Marie-Mai). And because we already got to listen to the English version yesterday, now Simple Plan published also a snippet of the French version of the song. What do you think about it?
The single will be available for streaming this Monday, April 25th:
Simple Plan have finally confirmed to Alter The Press which song will be their official first single: it will be Jet Lag, a song that the guys shot a video for just a few days ago and to which we already know the lyrics for.
The website has also confirmed the rumours that the song will be indeed featuring the British singer Natasha Bedingfield.
The single itself is set to premiere next week on April 26th.
And thanks to our colleagues at SPB here is the official cover art for the first single Jet Lag off the new Simple Plan record. What are your thoughts on it?
Today Simple Plan have officially premiered their new music video from their forthcoming album – for the song “Can’t Keep My Hands Off You”. Although the video was set to premiere at 12pm EST on AOL, it has been available on the AOL website for a couple of hours now.
Once again – this is NOT the first single (although some radio stations decided to release it as one), but as it’s going to be featured in the upcoming Disney movie Prom, the guys decided to create a themed video for it.
Enjoy:
Ever since the boys shot the music video for the song Jet Lag two days ago, lots of rumours have started spreading on the internet. I can confirm that Jet Lag will be the song that has been already mentioned by Simple Plan to be available in two versions: in English and in French and (as you’ve been already informed before) one of the featurings on this song should be Marie-Mai.
Wait.. did I just say ONE of the featurings? Yes! Apparently Marie-Mai should only be singing the vocals on the French version of Jet Lag, yet the English version should feature the British singer Natasha Bedingfield, which you may remember from hits such as Unwritten, These Words, or most recently Pocket Full of Sunshine, which you may have heard in the movie Easy A.
It is important to mention that Simple Plan have not confirmed any of the two featurings of these two ladies. At least not yet. What do YOU think about them?
Most of the Simple Plan fans are by now probably already aware of the fact that the 4th Simple Plan album will be filled with many collaborations: with a bunch of co-producers, producers, song-writers and singers – from Claude Kelly and Alex Gaskarth, to Rivers Cuomo. Though, not all the names of famous personalities, who have worked on the upcoming Simple Plan release, have been announced yet. As the band has said – there are still lots of surprises to come.
And one of them might have leaked onto the internet already: a French-Canadian singer Marie-Mai, who has been one of the top finalists of the singing competition Star Académie, was spotted at the shooting of Jet Lag on Toronto airport (Marie-Mai was apparently NOT on the set of Jet Lag, yet it is rumoured she WILL be singing on the song). Now, because Simple Plan have already mentioned there will be a guest appearence on Jet Lag, chances are Marie-Mai could be another interesting collaboration on the new Simple Plan record. And if she’s actually singing, that would make her the first woman to ever have a duet with Simple Plan.
