The Pretty Reckless Share Acoustic Version Of “Harley Darling”

Posted by caemanamelio on

The Pretty Reckless have released an acoustic version of their song “Harley Darling.” This take on the track will appear on the band’s new compilation album “Other Worlds,” which is set to be released on November 4. As previously reported, that effort will feature covers and acoustic/alternative versions of some of the band’s songs. Singer Taylor Momsen said the following about “Harley Darling”:

“‘Harley Darling’ is a love letter to Kato Khandwala. It’s as simple as that. So many of us have stories of losing loved ones, especially now, and I hope this song can be used in other’s healing as it was in my own.”

The Pretty Reckless To Release New Compilation Album “Other Worlds” In November

Posted by caemanamelio on

The Pretty Reckless will be releasing a new compilation album, titled “Other Worlds,” on November 4. The effort will feature covers and acoustic/alternative versions of some of the band’s songs. The first single, a remixed version of “Got So High,” can be found below:

“Other Worlds” Track Listing:

01. “Got So High” (remix)
02. “Loud Love” (Soundgarden cover)
03. “The Keeper” (Chris Cornell cover) (feat. Alain Johannes)
04. “Quicksand” (David Bowie cover) (feat. Mike Garson)
05. “25” (acoustic)
06. “Only Love Can Save Me Now” (acoustic)
07. “Death By Rock And Roll” (acoustic)

09. “(What’s So Funny ‘Bout) Peace, Love And Understanding” (Elvis Costello cover)
10. “Harley Darling” (acoustic)
11. “Got So High” (album version)

Singer Taylor Momsen commented:

“For a long time, we’ve been trying to figure out an alternative way of releasing music, including songs we love that didn’t make our records, covers, and alternate versions. We found a way to do this coherently and consistently with ‘Other Worlds’. We’re a rock band, so there are lots of electric guitars on our records. However, we’ve gotten incredible feedback from fans about our acoustic performances, and we’d never put those out in any real format. So, this is a different take on the traditional format of a record and a stripped back version of us that our fans haven’t really heard before, but it’s still us.”

Guitarist Ben Phillips added:

“You get to hear a different side of Taylor’s vocals. It was a chance for us to see what she would sound like singing songs by people who have inspired us. It also gave us some perspective of where we need to go and what we need to be if we want to be that good.”
