Why would he reuse Camerado, which was recorded 18 years ago now?
Because it is majorly awesome, in a bigly way

Sure, it's a cool song, but his (singing) voice has changed since then, as has the production style. It wouldn't fit. Or did you mean that they would re-record it? Either way seems unlikely given that "they always look forward" (such a cliché).

I wrote about it earlier. First thought when I saw the cover: The Long Highway:)
I know the way I can see by the moonlight

The lyrics fit well with the cover.  :)

The image looks like its been taken from Shutterstock and the font is the same of The Ragpicker's Dream... It looks BS except historically MK covers have been kind of dull (tstl) so perhaps it's true!!

I'd say when he used paintings (DS debut, Crimson) it was awesome, let alone a genius photo of Elliott Erwitt on the Ragpicker's. I even like Sailing To Philadelphia, even though I believe it was literally a Shutterstock photo. But at least you had that wordplay with a plane that sails.

You don't have a ship on Sailing To Philadelphia, right? So when I see a plain road under an album title with "road" in it be like — :disbelief :disbelief :disbelief

Might as well name an album... "Long Highway" instead :lol
