David Byrne and Fatboy Slim detail guest-heavy Here Lies Love

Norman Cook, aka Fat Boy Slim, is no stranger to high-profile collaborations. But his latest project might just take the cake. In fact, it does… like totally.

As we told you back in October, Cook and David Byrne have once again teamed up for a rather unique project. Following in the footsteps of The Brighton Port Authority’s I Think We’re Gonna Need a Bigger Boat, the legendary duo hit the studio with a number of other high-profile musicians for a concept album based on the life of former first lady of the Philippines Imelda Marcos — you know, the chick with all the shoes.

“Each track is sung by a different singer and there’s some very interesting guests on there,” Cook explained of the album in an interview with NME. He wasn’t kidding.

Featured on two disc, 22-track Here Lives Love are a number of music’s favorite female voices, including Tori Amos, St. Vincent, Santigold, Róisín Murphy, Sharon Jones, Cyndi Lauper, Sia, Martha Wainwright, Nicole Atkins, Florence & the Machine’s Florence Welch, Natalie Merchant, My Brightest Diamond’s Shara Worden, Alice Russell, The B-52’s Kate Pierson, Allison Moorer, and Nellie McKay. In fact, only two tracks include male vocals — Steve Earle sings on “A Perfect Hand”, while Byrne handles “American Troglodyte”.

And if all that wasn’t enough, the whole thing concludes on track 22, "Why Don’t You Love Me?", with what should be a rather unique duet featuring Amos and Lauper.

But wait… there’s more! The album, which will be released on February 23rd via Nonesuch Records, comes packaged with 100-page book detailing the project and a DVD.

Eeeee, I'm excited for this.

What is going on in this song? I re-read the "A Piano" commentary last night looking for information on this song. While, I wasn't altogether disappointed since I found out more information on "Cooling" (I love so many of the odd lyric combinations in that song.. the part with love walking up to like.. and the ocean wrapped around the palm tree) and It was interesting realizing why she never included Cooling on an album, but when I looked up the meaning to "Sugar" online last night since it wasn't in the commentary book, I couldn't find anything.. and I noticed that a lot of the lyrics that were posted were different when you went from site to site.. and almost all didn't include the part where she uses the "p" word. haha
Bobby is collecting bees and hammering things.. so who is Bobby? Is he an insect collector and is hammering bees to a board. Is Bobby meant to represent people harming nature?? And why does she change the lyrics around? Like on the dvd "Welcome to Sunny Florida," it sounds like she is saying "Bring me sugar," instead of "He brings me sugar." Did Bobby disappoint Tori.. and who are the boys that are going to find out that Bobby is just a "p" word. It sounds like she cares for Bobby or that Bobby is going to be harmed.. "Wait til they find out your just a &)(*&, my sweet boy, my sugar" -- that is the lyric that is never included on the online pages.

Maybe I read too much into this song. I can't make sense of the song enough to make it have a special meaning for me, which is why I ask you all what I should put together to try to make the song feel a certain way for me, I say this because I know a lot of people say, "Well, let it mean whatever you want it to mean.." I cant even get that far on this song.
So, what do you think the song means?

Tori talks to her fans about the influences behind Midwinter Graces, stagefright, books and Neil Gaiman,...to name a few.
