German submarine U-17 was a Type IIB U-boat of Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine. It was built in Germaniawerft, Kiel, where it was laid down on 1 July 1935 and commissioned on 3 December 1935, under the command of Werner Fresdorf.
Design[edit]
German Type IIB submarines were enlarged versions of the original Type IIs. U-17 had a displacement of 279 tonnes (275 long tons) when at the surface and 328 tonnes (323 long tons) while submerged. Officially, the standard tonnage was 250 long tons (250 t), however.[1] The U-boat had a total length of 42.70 m (140 ft 1 in), a pressure hull length of 28.20 m (92 ft 6 in), a beam of 4.08 m (13 ft 5 in), a height of 8.60 m (28 ft 3 in), and a draught of 3.90 m (12 ft 10 in). The submarine was powered by two MWM RS 127 S four-stroke, six-cylinder diesel engines of 700 metric horsepower (510 kW; 690 shp) for cruising, two Siemens-Schuckert PG VV 322/36 double-acting electric motors producing a total of 460 metric horsepower (340 kW; 450 shp) for use while submerged. She had two shafts and two 0.85 m (3 ft) propellers. The boat was capable of operating at depths of up to 80–150 metres (260–490 ft).[1]
The submarine had a maximum surface speed of 12 knots (22 km/h; 14 mph) and a maximum submerged speed of 7 knots (13 km/h; 8.1 mph).[1] When submerged, the boat could operate for 35–42 nautical miles (65–78 km; 40–48 mi) at 4 knots (7.4 km/h; 4.6 mph); when surfaced, she could travel 3,800 nautical miles (7,000 km; 4,400 mi) at 8 knots (15 km/h; 9.2 mph). U-17 was fitted with three 53.3 cm (21 in) torpedo tubes at the bow, five torpedoes or up to twelve Type A torpedo mines, and a 2 cm (0.79 in) anti-aircraft gun. The boat had a complement of twentyfive.[1]
Service history
Its career consisted of four patrols, all served while under the 1st U-boat Flotilla where it sank three ships for a total of 1,825 gross register tons (GRT). Later in the war it served under the 22nd U-boat Flotilla as a training boat, including Oberleutnant zur See Walter Sitek as an instructor. Sitek had previously escaped imprisonment after the disabling and sinking of U-581 by HMS Westcott in February 1942. He swam 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) to Pico Island in the Azores, made his way through neutral Spain and returned to the Kriegsmarine to serve as an instructor on U-17, U-981, and U-3005.
Fate[edit]
On 5 May 1945 U-17 was scuttled at Wilhelmshaven at the western entrance of the Raeder lock.

It's often said that the strength of Brooklyn's 'TV on the Radio' comes from the musicality of their layering, and with the two distinct vocal ranges of Tunde Adebimpe and Kyp Malone (both voices filled with texture, style, personality and desire to sing within music) and with guest vocalist willing to sit back into the musical space of a mix (from David Bowie to Katrina Ford...), they have vast ranges of flexibility to layer with, even before they pick up their multi instrumentalism's.
The rest of the group are known for David Andrew Sitek and Jaleel Bunton and the late, and greatly missed, Gerard Anthony Smith, whose bass on the refrain of this track is simply sublime.

American singer-songwriter and musician Perry Farrell (1959) is best known as the frontman for the alternative rock band Jane's Addiction. Farrell created the touring festival Lollapalooza as a farewell tour for Jane's Addiction in 1991; it has since evolved into an annual destination festival, which Farrell continues to produce Lollapalooza with partners.
Jane's Addiction made its name in mid-1980s LA by building up a fan base with high-energy shows in small LA rock clubs. Jane's Addiction, prior to their first break-up, released three albums 'Jane's Addiction' (1987), 'Nothing's Shocking' (1988) and 'Ritual de lo Habitual' (1990). A B-sides album from the Ritual sessions, titled 'Live and Rare' was released in Japan. Late in 1991, Jane's Addiction broke up due to internal tensions over differing ideologies mostly centering on drug use, notably Farrell's severe addiction to heroin. In 1993 Farrell and his ex-girlfriend Casey Niccoli made a film called Gift (Perry Farrell, Casey Niccoli, 1993) that featured Jane's Addiction and also explored their own relationship. It was released by Warner Bros. In 1997, Jane's Addiction reformed for a brief reunion tour with Flea replacing Avery on bass. The Relapse Tour was supported with the release of 'Kettle Whistle', a rarities album featuring four new songs.
Perry Farrell has been credited with changing the fortunes of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. Following the festival's disastrous first year in 1999, the event was not held in 2000. In 2001, a decision was made to organise the festival again, but just a few months before the festival was set to occur, there was still no headlining group. Farrell, who was friends with the festival's organisers, decided to reunite Jane's Addiction for the 2001 event, which helped draw large crowds and allowed the festival to yield a profit. This began a Coachella tradition of reuniting at least one major artist each year. Farrell again toured with Jane's Addiction in 2001 and 2003. In 2003, Jane's Addiction released an album, 'Strays'. It quickly became one of their best selling records and was certified gold in the USA and silver in UK. They toured extensively in North America and Europe, brought back Lollapalooza for the first time since 1997, as well as performing at the Big Day Out festivals in Australia and New Zealand. Internal struggles saw the band split up again in early 2004. A 'Best of' release following the breakup of this incarnation of the band was released in 2006, titled 'Up from the Catacombs'. The four original members of Jane's Addiction played their first show together in 17 years at the first United States edition of the NME Awards in 2008, and played two small shows in Los Angeles during Winter 2008. The reunited Jane's Addiction re-debuted at SXSW in 2009 and kicked off a summer tour with Nine Inch Nails. Eric Avery again left the band in late 2009, leaving Farrell, Navarro and Perkins as the remaining members of Jane's Addiction. The band with Dave Sitek on bass released 'The Great Escape Artist' in 2011 and have continued to tour.

Ximena Sariñana Bio
When Mexican vocalist Ximena Sariñana (hi-MEN-a sa-rin-YAH-na) released her debut solo album, Mediocre, in 2008, Rolling Stone gave it four stars and praised it as “one of the strongest debuts from a female singer-songwriter since Norah Jones’ Come Away With Me.” Recording the Spanish-language album was a natural step for Sariñana, who had risen to fame in her homeland as a child actress and had fronted a successful indie band for four years. “In Mexico, people believed in me as an artist,” says the fully bilingual 25-year-old. So when she began thinking about recording an album in English she was confronted with a tough decision: “Either stay in my country, where everyone knows who I am, or start from scratch and convince people that I’m worth it.” She chose the latter.
The result is a collection of songs that showcase her deep, striking voice, smart, thoughtful lyrics and offbeat personality. “I think of albums as Polaroid pictures of who I was at that given moment,” says Sariñana. “All the songs are a bit dark. They capture a sort of general doom that I try to compensate with humor,” she says. The lead single, “Different,” opens with a playful whistle but is really an apology to listeners “about maybe not expressing myself clearly because of my different nationality,” while “Bringing Us Down” was inspired by the poem “Candles” by Greek poet Constantine P. Cavafy and deals with growing older and looking back at the fading past. The album not only reflects Sariñana’s wise-beyond-her years demeanor, but also the kind of sonic growth and experimentation expected from a risk-taker.
“Everything was about forcing myself out of my comfort zone,” says the singer, having leapt beyond her usual stripped down, mellow arrangements and into more daring musical territory. “I wanted quicker, bigger sounding songs and more bass and electronic instruments,” says Sariñana, who plays the piano throughout. “I needed to be able to move to it on stage.”
To help accomplish this, she enlisted producers Greg Kurstin (Lily Allen, Devo, The Bird and the Bee), Dave Sitek (TV on the Radio, Yeah Yeah Yeahs) and Natalia Lafourcade. Recorded in Los Angeles, the songs are indeed snapshots; vignettes of events and emotions ornamented by lush arrangements and lightened by occasional whimsy. “Common Ground” is exalted with bells and space drums and “Wrong Miracle” includes circuit-bent children’s toys and footsteps on gravel. “Echo Park,” one of the last songs recorded, was built around a Casio drum machine and the need for a little comic relief. “I wanted to write something that was going to make me laugh. I didn’t want to go too deep or serious like I usually do,” says Sariñana. “I decided to make fun of how girls, especially in my world, always fall for guys in a band.”
“Tu Y Yo” (You and Me) is the only song on the album sung entirely in Spanish. “My mother language and the country where I live in is such an important part of who I am,” says Sariñana, who was born in Guadalajara and raised partly in LA before moving to Mexico City.
Raised in a highly creative family—her mother is a screenwriter and her father is a film director and producer—instilled a love of the arts in her early on. “I was four years old when I started acting,” says Sariñana, a natural-born entertainer who became a household name in Mexico by appearing in 11 films (among them box office hit Amar Te Duele and film festival winner Dos Abrazos) as well as three prime time telenovelas.
An early discovery of jazz greats like Ella Fitzgerald ignited her love of music, and at age 15 she began studying at Mexico’s Academia de Musica Fermatta. At 17, she honed her vocal skills during a five-week program at Boston’s renowned Berklee College of Music and then began fronting a jazz-funk fusion band called Feliz No Cumpleaños (Happy Un-Birthday), which “made a bit of noise in the underground,” as she puts it. She also brought together her loves of film and music on occasion, co-writing and singing three songs on the Amar Te Duele soundtrack (which stayed on the Top 10 Soundtracks list in Mexico for 10 years) and acting as music supervisor for several films.
By the time Mediocre was released, Ximena’s status as a artist was already cemented; the record debuted at number one in Mexico and went platinum soon after. Mediocre reached #10 on the Billboard Latin Pop Chart, #38 on the Billboard Latin Album Chart and Ximena was the only Latin artist in Itunes Best 10 Albums of 2008. She won the Best New Artist Award in the Premios MTV Latinoamerica 2008 (Latin MTV Awards) and received three Latin Grammy Nominations for Best New Artist, Best Alternative Song and Producer of the Year. Mediocre also received a Grammy nomination for Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album.
Despite her successes, Sariñana has no expectations when it comes to her English-language debut. “It’s my first record to a lot of people. I just hope listeners can hear the honesty in the album,” she says. “I titled it after myself because my name keeps it close to me and who I am as an artist and a person.” It’s a name many will come to recognize soon enough.

Ximena Sariñana Rivera nació el 29 de octubre de 1985 en la ciudad de Guadalajara, Jalisco. Es hija del cineasta mexicano Fernando Sariñana y Carolina Rivera, hermana de la actriz Angélica Rivera.
Desde muy pequeña tomó clases de piano con la maestra Hanna Cot. Aprendió a cantar luego de comenzar a hablar. A los dos años de edad asistió a un concierto de Ella Fitzgerald e inmediatamente se enamoró del jazz, género musical que nunca la abandonaría.
Con el paso de los años, Ximena comenzó a descubrir a otros cantantes: Paul Simon, Tracy Chapman y Carmina Burana. Además de verla cantar y bailar, la hoy cantante siempre se disfrazaba.
Imaginación, inspiración y música iban de la mano.
A los seis años, después de escucharla cantar, su vecina Cecilia Toussaint le recomendó que tomara clases de canto con Ricardo Sánchez quien, en aquel entonces, era el maestro de casi todas las cantantes reconocidas en México.
Además de amar el canto, Ximena se convirtió en una fan de la lectura, fue entonces cuando la intérprete se convirtió en una contadora de historias.
En los noventa incursionó en televisión, participó en las telenovelas "Luz Clarita"(1996), "María Isabel" (1997) -protagonizada por Adela Noriega y Fernando Carrillo, en la cual dio vida a "Rosa Isela"-, y "Gotita de amor" (1998).
En 1994 formó parte de los créditos de "Hasta morir", su primera cinta, y cinco años después actuaría en "Todo el poder".
Posteriormente ingresó a la Academia de Música Fermatta, en donde conoció a los integrantes de la que después fuera su primera banda: Feliz No Cumpleaños.
Un año después rodaría "El segundo aire" (2001), al lado de Jesús Ochoa, Lisa Owen y Jorge Poza, película con la que obtuvo su reconocimiento.
Ximena fue becada al Five Week Program del Berklee College of Music; gracias a ello emprendió su propia búsqueda como compositora.
Durante su estancia de cinco semanas en Boston compuso el corte "Amar te duele", que formó parte de la banda sonora de la película "Amar te duele", dirigida por su papá y fue protagonizada por Martha Higareda y Luis Fernando Peña en 2002, en la cual también actuó.
En 2005, Ximena formó parte de una campaña que invitaba a los jóvenes mexicanos a votar y un año después se estrenó el filme "Amor xtremo motocross", con Aarón Díaz, Irán Castillo y Plutarco Haza, además de que intervino en el "soundtrack" con el grupo Volován.
Fue hasta 2006 cuando sacó a la venta su primer EP. "La familia feliz", con su grupo.
Durante ese año también participó en el largometraje mexicano "Dos abrazos", ganadora del premio Best New Narrative Filmmaker (Mejor Director de Nueva Narrativa) en el Festival de Cine de Tribeca.
Un año después se estrenaría el filme "Niñas mal", en el que volvió a trabajar con su papá, Fernando Sariñana, y con Martha Higareda.
En 2007 partió a Buenos Aires y a Uruguay para grabar su primer disco como solista. Sus productores, Tweety González y Juan Campodónico, contribuyeron para integrar un álbum que habla de las preocupaciones de una joven como Ximena.
Las influencias de la artista abarcan a Paul Simon, Tracy Chapman y Carl Orff (Carmina Burana), las cuales muestra en su álbum debut "Mediocre", que fue lanzado en febrero de 2008 y del que se desprendió su sencillo "Vidas paralelas".
En abril de ese año, la producción musical ganó un Disco de Oro por las 50 mil unidades vendidas en México; la distinción la recibió de manos del cantautor español Miguel Bosé. En esa misma época obtuvo
un MTV Latino como Artista Revelación.
Sariñana estuvo nominada en las categorías de Artista del Año, Mejor Solista y Mejor Artista Norte en los premios MTV Latinoamérica.
En 2009 se estrenó la película "Enemigos íntimos", en el que ella trabajó con Demián Bichir y Fabiola Campomanes, bajo la dirección de Fernando Sariñana.
El pasado 20 de octubre salió a la venta la banda sonora de "Luna nueva", en el cual Ximena es la única mexicana en formar parte, junto con Tom Yorke, Muse y The Killers. Dentro del CD, la cantante interpreta el sencillo "Frente al mar".
Este año también intervino en el disco tributo a la emisión infantil "31 minutos", en el que interpretó la canción "El dinosaurio Anacleto".
Actualmente se escucha en la radio con el tema "Suerte", que canta a dueto con Jason Mraz.
La compositora se encuentra en Los Ángeles, California, donde alista lo que será su segundo álbum.

Ximena Sariñana: “Apenas estoy empezando”
Ser actriz, subirse a un escenario, colaborar con causas nobles y conocer a grandes hitos de nuestro tiempo son, para ella, sueños cumplidos que más bien “se fueron dando”, según dice vía telefónica desde Estados Unidos la joven cantante y compositora Ximena Sariñana, quien, además, a cada pregunta que le hacemos sobre el presente, contesta con el relato de un sueño cumplido.
Es posible imaginarla sonriendo cuando cada frase que dice la comienza con un fue increíble, estuvo padrísimo, fue como de película o superbien.
Tanto optimismo es comprensible cuando has sido nominada al Grammy, tu disco en inglés vende bien en el exigente mercado anglosajón, te anuncian que participarás en uno de los festivales de rock más importantes de EU, el Coachella, así como cuando sabes que eres la única persona latina que tiene el honor de participar en un disco homenaje a Bob Dylan.
Sin embargo, en entrevista, ella simplemente dice: “Siento que apenas estoy empezando".
“Desde chiquita mi sueño era ser actriz”, cuenta Ximena. Ella es oriunda de Guadalajara, viajó desde niña a la ciudad de México y actuó en teatro musical y telenovelas. “La neta es que nunca hubo algo sobre lo cual yo dijera: ‘Esto es’. Si tenía ganas de hacer obras y los castings de Televisa y decía órale va, aunque nunca he tenido en México un mánager para la actuación, entonces, siempre fue algo que se fue dando. Eso mismo pasó con la música. Cuando tenía 15 años decidí meterme a estudiar y así una cosa llevó a la otra. Todo ha sido como que muy circunstancial”, comenta la hija del director de cine Fernando Sariñana.
En esta nueva etapa en su carrera, que suena en idioma inglés, Ximena es otra: intenta llamar la atención del público adolescente, sus más recientes videos estampan una estética pop muy colorida, sus asesores de imagen han sabido cómo resaltar los rasgos finos de la cantante.
“No se trata de un disco, hay que trabajar mucho. Sin duda, este paso -empezar a trabajar en la industria estadounidense- fue un paso muy grande”, dice la cantante.
Ximena extraña la actuación y no descarta hacerlo en el futuro pero, por el momento, la música consume sus días. Este último año ha sido meteórico. De septiembre del 2010 a abril del 2011 fue telonera de la cantante estadounidense Sara Bareilles.
Si pudieras ubicar un momento muy concreto que es el parteaguas para que llegaras a EU, ¿cuál sería?
“Fue como de película. Fue en el 2009, cuando yo estaba nominada a los Grammy. Después hubo una gala organizada por Warner Music y ahí conocí a Lyor Cohen, director de Atlantic Records y de Warner Music. Y quién sabe por qué pero le caí muy bien. Y en esa gala me presentó a todos los directores. A partir de ese momento tuve algunas juntas. Fue un momento muy surreal en el que todo se estaba alineando”.
En cuanto a su participación en Coachella, Ximena comenta: “La primera vez que fui iba de espectadora a disfrutarlo y obvio nunca me iba a imaginar que años después iba a tocar allí. Me da mucha emoción.
“En California hay muchas cosas sucediendo con la música latina, las estaciones de radio la promueven mucho. Pero EU es un país enorme y es muy diferente California de Ohio, por ejemplo. Creo que aún hay mucho que trabajar porque siento que está muy dispersa la representación latina aunque sean mayoría”.
CAMPANADAS DE LA LIBERTAD
Chimes of Freedom es un disco homenaje al cantante Bob Dylan, el cual reúne a grandes figuras de la música como Adele, Lenny Kravitz, Maroon 5 y el propio Dylan. El tributo fue convocado por Amnistía Internacional, con quienes Sariñana ya había tenido algunos acercamientos en el pasado pero no se había concretado una participación.
“Fue increíble. Quedó muy padre el disco y también la canción”, dice vía telefónica. La canción que Ximena escogió lleva por título “I want you”, del disco Blonde on Blonde (1966). Cuenta la cantante que ella conocía los discos de Dylan pero no era tan fanática. Entonces, cuando sus representantes en Estados Unidos se enteraron la pusieron bajo advertencia: “O sea, no es cualquier tributo: tienes que meterte a escuchar sus primeros discos completitos, tienes que tomártelo muy en serio. Y yo no quería decepcionar a nadie, sobre todo en un disco donde iban a cantar artistas tan grandes”, comenta.

Ximena Sariñana le entra al mercado anglosajón con su disco homónimo en el que deja el español de lado y canta en inglés -con excepción del tema titulado "Tú y yo"-, y no es lo único que ha dejado, pues los toques de jazz que se escuchaban en Mediocre, su anterior disco, también han desaparecido, sustituidos ahora por un tinte electrónico que la acerca de lleno al pop.
El material abre con "Different", el primer single del disco y también el que más alegría provoca dentro de un material más bien con aroma dramático. "Echo Park" es el ejemplo perfecto del cambio de sonido que alcanza Ximena, con los toques de sintetizadores que reflejan el trabajo de postproducción al que se ha sometido.
Hay tiempo para las baladas que, aunque carecen casi por completo del toque electro, no reviven el sonido clásico de la cantante. Sin embargo es en estos temas donde Ximena se escucha más en su zona de confort. "Tomorrow" y "Common ground" se convierten de esta forma en los más poderosos del CD, una mezcla perfecta entre un nuevo sonido y la pasividad que nos había mostrado en el pasado.
Hacia el final, Ximena coloca una melancólica balada llamada "Tú y yo" -en la que por cierto participa Omar Rodríguez-López tocando el bajo-, que conserva el ambiente e incluso lo hunde más en la depresión -por su sonido más que por su letra-.
VEREDICTO: Al final no es ni un paso hacia adelante ni hacia atrás para Ximena, simplemente cambia de dirección y genera un sonido que ahora tendrá que defender... o volver a cambiar.

Childhood
Ximena Sariñana (pronounced: [xiˈmena sariˈɲana]) Rivera was born in Guadalajara, Mexico[1] to producer/director Fernando Sariñana and screenwriter Carolina Rivera. When she was 2 years old, Sariñana attended an Ella Fitzgerald concert, claiming this to be the beginning of her interest in music and one of her biggest influences. She soon started listening to other artists such as Paul Simon and Tracy Chapman. She would often be seen singing and dancing, dressed up in costumes. When Sariñana was 7 years old, her neighbor, Cecilia Toussaint suggested she should take singing lessons with her teacher Ricardo Sánchez, known for instructing Mexico's biggest talents. She also took up piano lessons with Hanna Cot. In 1994, Sariñana acted in Hasta morir (English: 'Til Death[2]), which was produced by her father, Fernando Sariñana.[3] Sariñana would later attend the Academia de Musica Fermatta.
Acting and early work
She started acting in telenovelas at the age of 11 as the villain Mariela in Luz Clarita,[2] starring Daniela Luján as the main character, Luz Clarita.[4] The following year, Sariñana acted in the telenovela María Isabel as Rosa Isela, with Adela Noriega as the main character, María Isabel.[2] Her final appearance on a telenovela was in 1998 on a telenovela entitled Gotita de amor (English: Droplet of Love) as Enriqueta.[5] At seventeen, after earning a scholarship for the Five Week Program of the Berklee College of Music, she composed three songs for the soundtrack of the Mexican movie Amar te duele where she also played the part of Mariana. Other important movies in which she acted were as Ximena in the 2001 film El Segundo Aire (English: A Second Chance[2]), Valentina in Niñas Mal (English: Bad Girls), all of which were directed by her father and written by her mother. She also appeared in a short film called De paso in 2005. In 2007, Ximena Sariñana acted in the movie Dos abrazos (English: Two Embraces[6]) directed by Enrique Begne. Dos abrazos won Sariñana an award for Best Female Actress at the 38th Diosas de Plata of Pecime awards.[7] The latest movie in which she has acted is called Enemigos íntimos[2] (English: Close Enemies) and will be released on DVD in late 2008.
She went on to be part of the band Feliz No Cumpleaños (English: Happy Un-Birthday), a Mexican funk-jazz, pop-rock band she formed alongside old friends from the Academia de Musica Fermatta. She captivated the audience on television by performing "El Triste" (English: The Sad One), originally performed by Mexican icon José José.
Mediocre Main article: Mediocre (album)
Sariñana in 2008 Her first solo album Mediocre was released on February 12, 2008 by Warner Music Group. Ximena wrote most of the songs on the album and revealed in Venus Zine's Summer 2009 cover story that, “Learning the language of my nationality was something I really wanted to achieve... so I thought maybe if I did a Spanish album it would be a good challenge."[8] On March 28, 2008, Mediocre was certified gold by AMPROFON for selling more than 50,000 copies.[9][10] Sariñana would later receive further achievement when Mediocre reached platinum status for selling more than 80,000 copies.[11]
The videos for Vidas paralelas, Normal, and No Vuelvo Mas were all shot in Iceland. Vidas paralelas was directed by Pablo Dávila.[12]
In late June, Metronomy stated that they were fascinated with Ximena's debut album Mediocre and the group produced a remix of La tina. Her music video for the second single, No Vuelvo Más, was premiered as an exclusive video on July 14, 2008 in MTV Mexico. She was later nominated for two Latin Grammy awards for Best New Artist and Best Alternative Song but lost to Kany García and Volver a Comenzar by Café Tacuba respectively.
Collaborations
In 2007, she contributed vocals for the song "Valenciana" in the album Extempore by the Ensenada-based nujazz band Kobol. In March 2009, Sariñana was featured as a vocalist alongside her boyfriend Omar Rodríguez-López with his solo group on their tour of Europe, which resulted in the live record Los Sueños de un Higado. She also provided vocals on Omar's solo albums Xenophanes, Solar Gambling, Ciencia de los Inútiles, Cizaña de los Amores and Tychozorente.
Along with Jason Mraz, she has released a Spanish version of Mraz's song "Lucky". The video for the Spanish-version has both her and Mraz in it, it was released to MTV on 22 June 2009.
Second album
As of November 2009, it was said that Sariñana was in the studio working on her second album. Her second, self-titled, album, consists of English songs written or co-written by her. The album contains one Spanish-language track called, "Tu y Yo". The album was recorded in Mexico City and Los Angeles during 2009 and was completed in early 2011. It was released in North America on August 2, 2011. The album's first single, "Different", was released in June 2011.[citation needed]
An article in Rolling Stone España in February 2009 featured Sariñana, and she expanded further into international stardom when she graced the cover of Venus Zine's Summer 2009 issue, transcending national boundaries to make her mark in American media.

Wrong Miracle Lyrics
by Ximena Sariñana
a La La La ....
I am a million years old
a million years old oh yes its true
I got the wrong Miracle
the wrong Miracle cuz all I wanted was you .
La - La - La...
I am a ship in a bottle
a monkeys tail, a blue lagoon
I got the Wrong Miracle
the wrong Miracle cuz all I wanted was you
No matter how happy I am
There is always something in the air
the sudden thoughts the smallest thing,
remind me of what could 've been
should I have walked the other way ?
I have a lovely man, a quiet life oh yes I do.
I got the wrong Miracle
the wrong Miracle all I wanted was you the
wrong miracle cuz all I wanted was you
no matter how happy I am there is always
something in the air the sudden thoughts
the smallest thing
remind me of what could 've been,
If I have gone the other way
would you be here with me today ?
here with me today ..
La la La la La La ...
Wrong miracle all I wanted was you the wrong miracle
all I wanted was you ,
The wrong miracle but I guess it would do .

Love Again Lyrics
by Ximena Sariñana
Pick a number
Take a name
Falling on the roses
Falling on the roses
Start a fire
Burn it up
Falling on the roses
Falling on the roses
Is this love love love love love, love again
And will it be enough to keep me from running away again
Is this love love love love love, love again
Oh will it be enough
I wanna be in love again
Make it easy
Break apart
Falling on the roses
Falling on the roses
I'll be over you
Before it ends
Falling on the roses
Falling on the roses
Is this love love love love love, love again
And will it be enough to keep me from running away again
Is this love love love love love, love again
Oh will it be enough
I wanna be in love again
It's hard to be alone
The tides have come
With wasted words
And things I've always known
They don't mean shit without your love
Love love love love, love again
And will it be enough to keep me from running away again
Is this love love love love love, love again
Oh will it be enough
I wanna be in love again
Is this love love love love love, love again
And will it be enough to keep me from running away again
Is this love love love love love, love again
Oh will it be enough
I wanna be in love again

Different Lyrics
by Ximena Sariñana
Sleep it off again
Don't remember when started
Failing to communicate
Will it see like I'm in half-hearted?
There´s not much to explain
When I'm so in my head
The stronger the theme
The less you will need
To hear it from me
To know what I am trying to say
Sorry if I don't see you
Mind me if my eyes cross you
Keep in mind I'm not here
I'm a different zone
Sorry if my words hurt you
Wish I knew the time to lie to you
Keep in mind I'm not here
I'm from a different world
Wait till I'm unique
I'm a light in the making
My wisdom will strip you down
Can't believe all the risk I'm taking
There's still so much to learn
And things you haven't heard
I want you see beneath everything
You're no different than me
No matter the language we speak
Sorry if I don't see you
Mind me if my eyes cross you
Keep in mind I'm not here
I'm from a different zone
Sorry if my words hurt you
Wish I knew the time to lie to you
Keep in mind I'm not here
I'm from a different world
Ahhh ahh ahhh ahhhh ahhhh...
Sorry if I don't see you
Mind me in my eyes cross you
Keep in mind I'm not here
I'm in a different zone
Sorry if my words hurt you
Wish I knew the time to lie you
Keep in mind I'm not here
I'm a different world
Sorry if my words hurt you
Wish I knew the time to lie to you
Keep in mind I'm not here
I'm a different world
Keep in mind I'm not here
I'm from a different world...

Jane's Addiction performed at Boulevard Pool at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas on September 7, 2012. © Erik Kabik/ erikkabik.com
Jane's Addiction has written the rule book for alternative music and culture through a combination of genre-defying classic songs and a cinematic live experience. Their songs serve as the Ten Commandments for alternative rock, inspiring an entire generation of bands such as Nirvana, Rage Against the Machine, Nine Inch Nails, Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam and Tool.
Perry Farrell stands out as one of music's most forward-thinking and enigmatic frontmen, and his vocals soar with vibrancy, vulnerability and vitality. Guitar god Dave Navarro conjures simultaneously psychedelic and epic riffs while Stephen Perkins' tribal stomp remains hypnotic and transfixing. In 2010, Jane's Addiction began writing songs for the new album. By 2011, recording began on what would become The Great Escape Artist, an October 2011 release on Capitol, to be supported with a worldwide tour in 2012. The band and producer Rich Costey (Muse, Franz Ferdinand, Interpol) added TV on the Radio's Dave Sitek to the creative team. Sitek, best known for his production work on TV on the Radio, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and the Foals, is writing and playing bass on the new album.
The Boulevard Pool sets the stage for Las Vegas’ most unique live concerts. Perched high above The Las Vegas Strip, The Boulevard Pool is a multilevel pool experience by day and an intimate outdoor concert venue with unobstructed sightlines of both the stage and The Strip by night.

On April 20, 2011, the band announced the death of Gerard Smith on their homepage: "We are very sad to announce the death of our beloved friend and bandmate, Gerard Smith, following a courageous fight against lung cancer. Gerard passed away the morning of April 20th, 2011. We will miss him terribly."
In May 2013, the band headlined and curated the All Tomorrow's Parties music festival held at Pontins holiday camp in Camber Sands, England, at which they debuted the new song "Mercy."

Jane's Addiction has written the rule book for alternative music and culture through a combination of genre-defying classic songs and a cinematic live experience. Their songs serve as the Ten Commandments for alternative rock, inspiring an entire generation of bands such as Nirvana, Rage Against the Machine, Nine Inch Nails, Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam and Tool.
Perry Farrell stands out as one of music's most forward-thinking and enigmatic frontmen, and his vocals soar with vibrancy, vulnerability and vitality. Guitar god Dave Navarro conjures simultaneously psychedelic and epic riffs while Stephen Perkins' tribal stomp remains hypnotic and transfixing. In 2010, Jane's Addiction began writing songs for the new album. By 2011, recording began on what would become The Great Escape Artist, an October 2011 release on Capitol, to be supported with a worldwide tour in 2012. The band and producer Rich Costey (Muse, Franz Ferdinand, Interpol) added TV on the Radio's Dave Sitek to the creative team. Sitek, best known for his production work on TV on the Radio, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and the Foals, is writing and playing bass on the new album.
The Boulevard Pool sets the stage for Las Vegas’ most unique live concerts. Perched high above The Las Vegas Strip, The Boulevard Pool is a multilevel pool experience by day and an intimate outdoor concert venue with unobstructed sightlines of both the stage and The Strip by night.
