ASCAP.com posted the names of sixteen of the songs Shirley has worked on with Greg Kurstin for her album -

 

* "Don't Want Anyone Hurt"

* "Don't Want To Pretend"

* "Gone Upside"

* "Hot $h!t"

* "Kid Ourselves"

* "Lighten Up"

* "Little Dough"

* "No Regrets"

* "Pissholes"

* "Pure Genius"

* "So Shines A Good Deed"

* "Spooky"

* "Stop"

* "Sweet Old World"

* "The Desert"

* "To Be King"

 

(Above songs credited to Kurstin / Manson)

 

These titles are the first confirmed names for any tracks Shirley has done since the Garbage hiatus (Not including any new Absolute Garbage tracks or her duet with Eric Avery "Maybe"). Manson has collaborated with a number of people on the project including fellow Scottish songwriter Paul Buchanan, US rock musicians Jack White, Billy Corgan, Beck and James Bond soundtrack composer David Arnold. Garbage drummer and former Nirvana/Smashing Pumpkins producer Butch Vig is also co-writing and producing for her album.

 

Greg Kurstin is also responsible for either co-writing or producing the following tracks (these might give an idea of the sound that Manson's songs might have):

 

Kylie Minogue: "Wow", "King or Queen", "Magnetic Electric"

Lily Allen: "Everything's Wonderful", "Not Big", "Alfie"

Stefy: "Chelsea"

Stephanie MacIntosh: "Tightrope"

Sophie Ellis-Bextor: "Catch You"

 

 

 

OMG thanks so much heartmightmelt...The titles are interesting am sure they will make for some good tunes B)

I hope she will avoid titles like "Hot $h!t" and "Pissholes"

They sound like... $h!t ;)

 

Anyway all these titles aren't the final version

 

And BTW I'm glad that her album is finally confirmed (and I think she will release it in 2008)
