We Walked in Song is the seventh studio album from The Innocence Mission. The standard eleven-track album was released in North America on March 13, 2007 via Badman Recording Co., with a vinyl edition containing the bonus track "Shooting Star (Sketch)" following a week later on March 20. All international versions of the album include the bonus track as standard. A European release containing three bonus tracks was commissioned later that year via the French-based Fargo record label. One of these exclusive recordings, "Song from Holland," was a new song recorded after the original album sessions and was sold as a one-track digital single by retailers such as iTunes and Amazon; while the other, "Do You See My Brothers Coming?," dates back to recording sessions from 2001.〔 Courtesy of web.archive.org. Note: "'Do You See My Brothers Coming?' (July's Rare Track – Recorded in Nov. 2001)." Access Date: October 3, 2009. 〕 ==Cover art== The album was released with two different cover designs, both created by Karen Peris. The CD artwork features a young girl standing between two trees with vividly colored leaves. Karen stated on their website that the artwork was inspired by an image she had seen in Leo Lionni's picture book 'Alexander and the Wind-Up Mouse.' Unable to figure out how Mr. Lionni painted such transparent pieces while also retaining vivid color schemes, Karen opted to paint the circles on mylar to create a similar effect. In the same post, she also mentioned that the young girl on the CD cover was unknown to her. She cut the image out of an old French-language text book she had found at a library book sale. The name of the photographer or identity of the young girl was not stated and she "had to hope that () would not mind my using the lovely photo."〔("The Innocence Mission – Spring Update from Karen" ) The Innocence Mission.com, July 3, 2009.〕 The vinyl edition contained expansive artwork featuring a group of people painted using the same mylar technique used to create the leaves on the CD artwork. Since the people are placed onto the surface of the cover with a removable sticky-adhesive, the individual people could be removed from the cover and placed back onto the sleeve in any order. This feature is only found on North American editions of the vinyl, since internationally printed editions of the vinyl were made with standard glue. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「We Walked in Song」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
