New Single "The Ever Elusive Future"

Post by Seaburgh » Sat Jun 06, 2015 12:17 pm

New to the Buffett World party, so how's everybody doing?

I just noticed that the single "The Ever Elusive Future" was released on Tuesday. Nice little surprise. The song isn't an immediate classic for me, but I'm sure I'll warm up to it after a few plays through the summer playlists. And any new Jimmy is good Jimmy...

My question is whether this is just a stand alone digital single or is this a part of an album upcoming or in the making. I haven't seen anything about an album being worked on, and with the tour underway, that's even more unlikely. Just curious if anyone had anymore details...

Cheers

I didn't realize when it was announced that it was for that movie.

I don't use iTunes... just AmazonMP3 and it's not available there :hmm:

I didn't see anything about it being for Jurassic World but that makes sense. I just happen to notice it when I was browsing the iTunes store, but didn't see any more info after researching it's release. That's why I wasn't sure if there was an album in the works I haven't heard about or if this was just a single release.

The soundtrack is the movie music. These three are not on the soundtrack but are in the movie.

1. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas – Tony Bennett
2. Sunrise O’er Jurassic World (the Jimmy Fallon Serenade) – Mick Giacchino
3. The Ever Elusive Future – Jimmy Buffett

JB's tune is OK. At least it's not stupid like Party At The End Of The World and countless others.
