(#23 Canadian CHR)
1. Intro 2. Ghost 3. Thanks for Nothing 4. Stuttering 5. Can't Breathe 6. You Bitch 7. Didn't See You Coming 8. Watch Me Move 9. I Want You 10. I'm a Lady 11. In Your Touch 12. Set Me Free 13. Joy JOY is my third LP. It is the first album I can honestly say hit the spot. I finally felt I had all the ideal elements into place. With true love, happiness, forgiveness, and of course, joy, dancing around in my back pocket, I courageously went back to Los Angeles to record. It was wild. Things took on a different color for me. I had the freedom to create, and I felt confident doing it. This was by far the best experience making a record I've had – ever. It was all hippie vibes and Wii-, a truly far out combination.
21 Music (Chris Smith’s indie label) gave me the opportunity to experiment without any pressure. Chris trusted in our eight lengthy years of working together, and allowed me to make the music I wanted to make. There were no questions like “who is Fefe?” He knows who I am and is encouraged by what he has heard and seen.
There are more than ten songs on this album where I offer expressions of me like “Watch Me Move,” a party song at the surface but if you dig deeper you may find that it’s a song about confidence and rejuvenation. What’s really exciting about “Watch Me Move” is that VH1 recognized the potential of the song early and before the album was completed made it the theme song for the Margaret Cho Show. I love the guitars in this song. They make me think of sun bathing on the top of a 1966 GTO. “I Want You,” is about attraction and desire. As a special treat we are releasing both “Watch Me Move” and “I Want You” together along with a video that will showcase both songs and a new title, “I Want You 2 Watch Me Move.” “Set Me Free” is about finding liberation and freedom. “Joy,” is about the excitement you get from finding new love. “In Your Touch”, talks about the fear of falling for an ex-boyfriend all over again -- if given the chance. To me, “Shame” represents my self absolution: So sick of being ashamed/So sick of playing games/So sick of all the lies I keep inside/Yea they'll eat you alive/Till nothing else remains/Except shame.
I would sort of be lying if I said that I am forever saved of all my heartache and “Paranoia,” and I would also be lying if I said I was not appreciative of those intangible feelings. They are slightly beautiful as long as they are managed beautifully... oddly enough, I think I realized how to do just that. I had to feel the bad in order to feel the good and I had to learn from my mistakes in order to grow. Growing comes with rewards and I was given the best one. I made an album with my friends. Dave Lichens, Jon Levine, Dean Dichoso, Gadget, the Heavy Steadies, Chris Smith and the 21 team. They all helped me actualize my Joy, and I did it with a permanent smile on my face. - taken from Fefe's website.

I meant to post this; I deeply dig Ghost and I hope radio responds to it.

Yeah, they pushed it back, which is smart, so they can have enough time to let Ghost build some and get some real promo for her in gear. An official release of Sunday Love is in the works, too.

Sunday Love is in my top 5 albums of all time, so to own an actual copy of the album would be amazing!
I've seen a place having Joy scheduled as July 6th, but Amazon making it no longer even available for pre-order worries me. :(

Yeah, it makes sense to me since she re-signed with IDJ and they own the masters.

It kept getting pushed back until it was ultimately shelved; although, we might see it released alongside Joy. "Don't Let It Go To Your Head" and "This Is My Life" both flopped equaled no release. Watch Me Move, I Want You both flopped (not sure if they were both fully released). If Ghost doesn't go top 40 I can't see this album getting a release, although I hope I'm wrong.

Check you this cute clip of when she was on The Style Network's The Dish: www.youtube.com/watch?v=LL1o564KmbYShe mentions she will be releasing a new single called "Stuttering" this fall, which would mean that Joy's tracklisting will be altered. Anyone have a clip of her performing on E News? I missed the telecast and can't seem to find it anywhere.

Both Fefe and Ghost deserved huge things. :'(
I hope Stuttering is awesome? I'm more than ready for the album, I hope October is the FINAL pushback, esp after Ghost doing good in Canada.

Ghost is currently at #17 on the Canadian Hot 100. That's her best peak of any song. She needs to release this album as soon as possible in Canada. I'm surprised Universal Canada is not pursuing this, or maybe they are, I'm not too sure.

I hope with Stuttering being added the album is 13 tracks now and they don't drop a song. =/ OR add Catch Me/I Made Out With Your Boyfriend/Paranoia since I've seen lots of people @ her on twitter asking about those songs and why they didn't make the cut? I'd much rather hear them now before they're sold to some Disney girl 5 years from now. I'm so excited for Stuttering, but I'm a little sad they're already moving on from Ghost, I know it's been done in the US for awhile, but I saw it as being one of those songs that could bounce back eventually from word of mouth alone. I've never heard a single bad thing said about that song. :(

Anyway, yeah, this is not her time, for sure, she'll have to do much better.

It still baffles me how Ghost wasn't a hit; it just screams "radio-friendly"!!
