"   The cover of Vanessa Carlton&amp;#039;s fourth album, Rabbits on the Run.  Vanessa Carlton&amp;#039;s new album, her fourth, comes out tomorrow. Rabbits on the Run was produced by Steve Osborne and recorded at Peter Gabriel&amp;#039;s recording studio in Box, England. Carlton spent years writing the ten tracks, which were finally recorded on tape: &amp;quot;The end goal was how it would sound on vinyl,&amp;quot; she said. We hopped on the phone with Carlton to talk about &amp;quot;I Don&amp;#039;t Want to be a Bride,&amp;quot; the track we&amp;#039;re exclusively premiering here. It was the hardest song for her to write, and the most personal. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s really easy to write things that have happened in the past, or what hasn&amp;#039;t happened yet. But when you&amp;#039;re in it...I wrote 13 to 15 pages of single paced teeny font typed pages of lyrics,&amp;quot; she said. It took her over a year to edit it down to something sort of resembling a song, and even then Osborne had to step in and take the editing reins. Carlton compares the song to old-school country ballads, but feels most triumphant about the song&amp;#039;s message. &amp;quot;What about the other side of the argument?&amp;quot; she said, referring to the hundreds of songs women sing about wanting to get married. &amp;quot;What about if it&amp;#039;s more about what love is? And what it can be? And it has nothing to do with the confines or the tradition of any of that?&amp;quot; If it sounds like Carlton&amp;#039;s grown up, wait until you hear the album. Click through to hear &amp;quot;I Don&amp;#039;t Want to be a Bride.&amp;quot;      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
