You Are My Sister

Antony's second full-length stands as one of the most globally acclaimed albums of 2005. The album's latest single is the anthemic and heart-rending "You Are My Sister", presented as a duet between Antony and Boy George. In "You Are My Sister," the pair sing from the depths of their hearts for the world. This extended single also includes three new, unreleased songs recorded during the "I Am A Bird Now" sessions. "Poorest Ear" is a harrowing and complex vision from the perspective of an alienated child. Responding perhaps to "You Are My Sister," Antony sings of a girl who wishes to save her imperiled brother in "Forest of Love." Finally, "Paddy's Gone" is a choral lament to long-lost man. These tracks all seem to support Antony's recent assertion; "Recently I have been imagining that we contain a family inside us... a mother, a father, a boy, a girl and a baby. I Am a Bird Now represents a dialogue between some of these figures."
