Back in February during And One’s US tour, Steve Naghavi said the band would return to the North America for a second tour in the Fall, but it’s already nearly Winter. Bodypop 1½ was supposed to have been released a half dozen times already, but it keeps getting delayed more and more. And One sure does like to get us all excited and then turn us away in despair when they don’t deliver, but we always come crawling back when there’s more news.

New single “Paddy Is My DJ”
And One is set to release a new single called “Paddy Is My DJ” on December 16th. It’s a limited edition single. Only 500 units will be produced, and it’s only being released on an appropriately orange-colored 7″ vinyl record. The all new song will be paired with a live favorite, And One’s cover of Project Pitchfork’s “Timekiller” which was recorded in Hamburg, as a B-side.

“Paddy Is My DJ” will not appear on Bodypop 1½, and it’s not likely there will be a CD version produced, so head on over to the Out Of Line webshop to pre-order your copy of the single today. The top hat on the cover and the orange color of the vinyl makes it cool enough to own even if you don’t have a turntable… but you should probably get one if you don’t.

What happened to Bodypop 1½?
According to the latest And One email newsletter, this new single is only an appetizer for what’s about to come. It says the release of Bodypop 1½ “may be right around the corner.” As much as I would love to believe that, I’ve heard it too many times already so I will just wait for further confirmation on that. Actually, it sounds like they’re not even sure, using the word “may”…
