Are Paramore gearing up to release Jack Antonoff remix of "Sanity"?
Paramore have registered a new version of "Sanity", which has been remixed by Jack Antonoff, on the British music copyright collective. PPL (Phonographic Performance Limited).
"Sanity" originally featured on Paramore's latest album, Re: This Is Why, which featured a series of reimagined versions of songs from their sixth studio album, This Is Why. Upon its release, Hayley Williams revealed that the track was an unreleased demo which was recorded during the sessions for their fifth studio album, 2017's After Laughter.
"There is a B-side as well, of an unreleased song that didn't quite make it onto this record and it actually didn't make it onto After Laughter either. It's been hanging around for a long time, and so we wanted to finally give it a home," she said in an interview.

It now appears that "Sanity" is going to receive its own remix treatment, as Paramore have registered a new Jack Antonoff version on their PPL account.
Announcing the release of the remix album via their socials, Paramore wrote: "We’ve long wanted to recognize the connection we have with some of the artists who’ve influenced us as a band and/or who have cited our band as an influence. Re: This Is Why is almost a remix album. Some of the songs have been remixed sort of classically, while others were reworked or rewritten. It’s incredible to hear all our worlds colliding."
At the time, they also revealed that they had a collaboration with David Byrne in the works, and yesterday (11 January) A24 shared that they are releasing a forthcoming tribute to Talking Heads' Stop Making Sense, featuring "16 tracks from 16 artists". The first teaser to be shared is a rendition of "Burning Down the House" by Paramore. Last year,A24 remastered the iconic concert film Stop Making Sense by Talking Heads, in celebration of its 40th anniversary.
There is yet to be a release date for the newly registered remix of "Sanity".
