This Is Lorelei has shared a new version of his song “Two Legs” that features Snail Mail (a.k.a. Lindsey Jordan), which will be featured on his forthcoming deluxe reissue of Box for Buddy, Box for Star, out April 25 on Double Double Whammy. The release is an expanded version of Nate Amos’ (of Water From Your Eyes fame) 2024 LP, now featuring collaborations with friends and family.
The track takes the knotty and busy electro-folk instrumental and infuses it with Jordan’s beautiful vocal performance, an intoxicating counterpoint to Amos’ original vocals. “When the idea of a deluxe edition with covers/collabs first came up,” Amos shares, “the literal first thought I had was ‘I gotta get Lindsey to sing “Two Legs.”’ I’ve loved Snail Mail ever since Water From Your Eyes had a chance to tour with them so it was a joy to hear Lindsey bless the song like this.”
Jordan added: “Within the last few years, following Nate’s projects, I have come to the conclusion he is the best songwriter of our generation as well as a great guy. Getting to do vocals on this was such a treat because I got to listen to it over and over again.”
