They came relatively easily, always informed by the suspicion that these could be my last. When I finally was able to travel, songs in hand, to Berlin to work with my friends recording this record, the feeling was akin to the moment in The Wizard of Oz when the film changes from Black and White to Color. Now I’m feeling quite optimistic. My favourite color is pink. I hope you enjoy the album.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAvailable on double vinyl (including download code with bonus track) and double CD.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e VINYL TRACKLIST\u003cbr\u003eA1 Paradise is Mine\u003cbr\u003eA2 The Beggar\u003cbr\u003eB1 Los Angeles: City of Death\u003cbr\u003eB2 The Parasite\u003cbr\u003eB3 The Memorious\u003cbr\u003eC1 Michael is Done\u003cbr\u003eC2 Why Can't I Have What I Want Any Time That I Want\u003cbr\u003eC3 Unforming\u003cbr\u003eD1 Ebbing\u003cbr\u003eD2 No More of This\u003cbr\u003e VINYL DOWNLOAD BONUS TRACK\u003cbr\u003e1 The Beggar Lover (Three)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mute","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42409449717916,"sku":"STUMM489","price":39.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/Swans_BeggarCoverDigital.jpg?v=1679422100","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/swans-the-beggar-double-vinyl","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
