From the easily excitable Ben Folds/Sony emailbot

Well, make that easily excitable and poorly coded. I was going to post the whole message, but it was completely unreadable with garbled URLs and all, but here's the gist of it.
WELL, IT'S HERE,
IT'S CALLED SONGS FOR GOLDFISH
AND THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO GET IT,
ALONG WITH BEN'S NEW ALBUM, Songs For Silverman!

blah blah blah

If you place your order by 6AM (ET) on April 20 and if your shipping address is within the continental United States, items will be shipped to you to arrive on or around April 26, which means you'll get Songs For Goldfish A WEEK BEFORE ITS OFFICIAL RELEASE DATE!

So here's the deal - there are two special editions of Ben Folds' upcoming LP, Songs For Silverman. There's a regular old special edition dual-disc with a DVD on the backside (a 25-minute "Making of" documentary and the video for "Landed"). Then there's a Deluxe special edition with the DVD on a separate disc with a longer "Making of" and a 40-page booklet.

Released with Songs For Silverman is a live performance disc, Songs for Goldfish which is $10 on its own but cheaper if you buy with either of the above special editions, natch.

I think I'm going to be a total sucker and get the super special special edition with the other CD. Oh, and Whatever and Ever Amen re-issue is coming out too. It comes with all the original tracks plus the following bonus tracks:

Video Killed The Radio Star
For All The Pretty People
Mitchell Lane
Theme From Dr. Pyser
Air
She Don't Use Jelly (Lounge-A-Palooza Version)
Song For The Dumped (Japanese Version)
