I found this item on eBay. Bid early, bid often as they say. This confirms the fact that it is the next single.

You’re currently reading “Snow in Sun Single,” an entry on bibbly-o-tek
It also got a play on Mark Radcliffe’s show on BBC Radio 2 last night, and Mark commented that it’ll be out as a single in the first week of Sept.
Incidentally, Russell and Mig who run Coolbadge, the promotions company, used to be in a terrific band called Moose. They were big mates of the Cocteau Twins. Their 4th and final album from 2000, High Ball Me, is a sonic masterpiece, and well worth tracking down…
Tangentially related: a good pic and story from today’s Guardian to promote the new Rough Trade book:

Strange thing is that Rough Trade Holland informed us this week that for the time being there will be no new single. There had been talk about Snow In Sun as being the new single but it had been postponed.
good to hear radio 2 keepin the faith with real music for real people
Details on “Snow” single – new b-side -”Am I Right In Thinking?”
Yay!! Was hoping for something to be done with Am I Right In Thinking. A worthy addition, and it makes the single a must-have of course.. 
Hurrah!! I should wait to hear it before I declare it the best thing since sliced (white) bread but how can you go wrong with a gorgeous melody like that?
I wonder if it’s also in the promo. By the looks of the photo it doesn’t. Have to wait for the mailman.
No it doesn’t Ernst, sadly…I got a copy of the same promo a couple of weeks ago and it’s not on there, although I’m keen to hear what might be one of the most emotional songs Green has recorded. It’s certainly a show stopper in the live set.
So are Snow in Sun and Robin Hood exactly as on the album, Peter? Of course I wouldn’t expect anything radically different but did wonder if they might ditch the bit tacked onto the end of the former.
But Richard, that’s the best bit!!
I’m indifferent to it really, just seems superfluous. I was hoping it might be left out so I can burn my own personally tailored version of WBBB, which also involves replacing ‘After Six’ with ‘Am I Right In Thinking’!
Nah Richard – exactly the same versions, at least on this promo.
is it coming out on monday or not? i cant find it on http://www.amazon.com or http://www.roughtraderecords.com
