New from Van Morrison: Stream “Love Should Come with a Warning”

On May 7, Van Morrison will release Latest Record Project: Volume 1, a new double-album that the legendary (and always outspoken) singer/songwriter has been previewing in recent weeks.
The latest preview of the new project is called “Love Should Come with a Warning” and it was debuted on Friday. It’s the third pre-release single shared ahead of the album’s launch day:
“Love Should Come with a Warning” joins two fellow pre-release tracks. Here’s “Only a Song,” about songwriting itself:
It’s only a poem, it could change in the long run, it’s only a song
It’s what I said then just to make it rhyme
Could have been on my mind at the time
Putting paper to pen, it’s only a song, it’s only a song
And “Latest Record Project”:

Per a news release, the expansive Latest Record Project: Volume 1 is the result of our enforced period of isolation. Unable to tour, Morrison remained busy with constant songwriting, starting ideas on piano, guitar or saxophone. What emerged is a wealth of new material, which shimmers with a directness and vibrancy that comes from working with a rhythm section with whom he shares an immediate, spontaneous connection.
Here’s the track listing — make note of titles such as “Stop Bitching, Do Something,” “They Own the Media” and “Why Are You On Facebook?” — as it sure looks like Van Morrison is keeping himself concerned with contemporary issues this time around:
