After the initial success of "The Of My Life," please give a very warm welcome to Patrick Wolf's "The City," another excellent new track from the singer much-anticipated, forthcoming new album. That new LP is due for release in May 2011 through Hideout Recording, a new Mercury/Universal imprint.

In a press releases, Wolf explains that "The City" carries a very special meaning and helped "to save his life." "Living in central London, I woke up one broody morning having booked some studio time," he says. "It was a hot summers day and in the midst of the protests against the banks and BBC6 Music closing down."

He adds, "Seeing how the recession had worked its way into peoples relationships and ambitions, I went to my piano and started to fight against the negative by writing in the positive."

Savvy pop producer Richard X intensifies the positivity of the song on his fantastic new remix of "The City." He adds a melodic synth flair to Wolf's wildly unique original that neatly contrasts with song's powerful message. Highly recommended.
