For those of you with Spotify, here are the songs from Juliana's new Juliana Hatfield album aka The Covers Album, by all the original artists*:

*apart from Led Zepagain. Also, 'Ready For Love' was originally a Mott The Hoople song, but Juliana has referenced the subsequent Bad Company version.

This was created for Spotify in the UK but hopefully most if not all songs are licensed in other regions.

In varying quality, here are the original artists performing the songs which make up Juliana's new eponymous covers album:

Teenage Fanclub - Cells

Foo Fighters - Learn To Fly

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Bad Moon Rising

Bad Company - Ready For Love (original by Mott The Hoople)

I Blame Coco - Selfmachine

Nada Surf - Fruit Fly

Pete Yorn - Closet

Electric Light Orchestra - Sweet Is The Night

Ryan Adams - Do I Wait

Liz Phair - Friend Of Mine

The Who - My Wife

Led Zeppelin - Rock And Roll

Here we go.

Juliana's new album of covers - the oddly titled Juliana Hatfield, is now available as a download for PledgeMusic subscribers ahead of the global release, which remains scheduled for August 28, 2012.

This site hasn't published the artwork, title and track list before now because Juliana has wanted, in her olde worldy ye olde records style, to keep it a secret.

Although some of the arrangements will come as a surprise the chosen songs are pretty much in line with what she has posted to PledgeMusic / Twitter and the live shows in June.

1. Cells
2. Learn To Fly
3. Bad Moon Rising
4. Ready For Love
5. Selfmachine
6. Fruit Fly
7. Closet
8. Sweet Is The Night
9. Do I Wait
10. Friend Of Mine*
11. My Wife*
12. Rock And Roll

*omitted from the vinyl version.

What are you waiting for? Allez. Avante. Now.

Juliana:

I will say that from the last album [There’s Always Another Girl] I am really proud of the song “Wasting Time”. I think it might be the saddest song I’ve ever written but it’s so pretty and so grown-up. It’s subtle and toward the end of the album so I think it was overlooked by lot of people.

As part of Juliana's current PledgeMusic drive she has again offered the opportunity to ask her 20 questions via email.

With thanks once more to N'Awlins Contrarian (and Juliana) for sharing, you can read a set of her responses here:

People discussing "The Internets" will never get old.

Juliana's 2011 album There's Always Another Girl is available again on CD at julianahatfield.com.

...and that is when I introduced myself, “Hi, I’m Mary.” She surprisingly replied “You’re Mary Sparks Haddon from South Carolina” and we made small talk. I figured she remembered me from Twitter or Pledge Music.

Juliana fan Mary Haddon has written a heartwarming account of her 'trip of a lifetime' to Boston last week at:

The entry is dated today (July 3). Worth a few moments of your time.

Andrew Youssef:

Her shimmering, early acoustic set featured a gorgeous cover of “Fruit Fly” from Nada Surf, a crystalline take on Foo Fighters’ “Learn To Fly,” as well as the some classics from her catalog like “My Sister,” “Nirvana,” and new songs like “Candy Wrappers.”

There's more on the Q Division studio shows last night, together with a gallery of 25 photos at Stereogum.

Pledgers will have noted that Juliana recently posted a photo taken from a shoot in New York with Brad Walsh.

Three other photos from the shoot are now up on Brad's Flickr pages:

really liking alpinisms by school of seven bells that my friend turned me onto the other day

— Juliana Hatfield (@julianahatfield) May 24, 2012

Alpinisms is the 2008 debut album from School Of Seven Bells.

The band are heavily played on the liveontomorrow.co.uk stereo and their two subsequent albums - 2010's Disconnect From Desire and this year's Ghostory come highly recommended.

Good to know Jules is now a fan.
