News: NME: Welcome to England Single & UK Bonus Track

NME has reported on all the recent Tori news including the new album, the visuallettes and the Savoy Theatre concert. Two tidbits pop out as new news through.

First, “Welcome to England” will be released as a single, at least in the UK, on May 25th, a week after the album’s release. They don’t say if this will be a physical release or only a digital single though, based on many of the questions we got for the still-forthcoming Spinner interview, most fans sure would hope for the former!

Second, in the track list NME posts, there is a bonus track: “Oscar’s Theme.”

Update: Several people have noted that this could be a reference to Oscar the dog, Martian Engineering’s most recent employee. We’d like to hope so but you never know!

Thanks to Danny, Alberto and Dardo for the tip!
