Asking a music question.

So I am considering—not yet wedded to, but considering—re-releasing Stars Fall Home, since it's currently all out of print and stuff, and that's no fun. But being me, I'm not willing to do this if I don't feel that I am in some way improving things with a re-release. This means a) that I will probably re-record "Sycamore Tree," to resolve some issues I have with the vocals, and b) include at least one new song, for the sake of, you know, making my lizard brain not freak out about spending time on something I've already done.

This is the link to my songbook. Yes, this link, right here.

If I were to record one song that had not previously been recorded, what would you want it to be? Defend your choice! With two caveats:

* No parodies.
* Nothing mad science or horror. That will eventually be a second theme album.

Tell me what to do!

I really, really want to suggest Continental Divide. I think it would fit decently with the tone of the rest of the album, and I know from having heard it performed that it's GORGEOUS.

...but I also question whether it's possible to actually get it recorded for an album. *wry* If it were, though, to have a clean performance of it...that would be so shiny. Even the edited train-wreck I have from when I heard it live is so wonderful I keep it in my regular rotation, but I know it's not what a copper to what you meant it to be.

On the other hand, I'm likely to glee about, yannow, anything you happen to add.

I'm also tempted to suggest a number of other things, but there are probably enough Seasonal Monarch songs for an album of their own by now.... Heh.
It was supposed to be on the album in the first place! Hmm. Maybe I should talk to Kristoph...
Squee! If it happens I'll be thrilled. If it doesn't, I'll probably be thrilled about whatever happens instead, but - *bounce*!
