Ticket resellers like Viagogo shouldn’t be allowed to deceive and exploit music fans like this so, although I don’t agree with all their policies, I’m really pleased to hear that Federal Labor is committed to putting an end to this ridiculous situation!!!

Hey gals and guys! Today is a special one (see what I did there?) because I’m releasing into the world my Best Of, ‘The Special Ones’! Listen to it via www.missyhiggins.lnk.to/thespecialones. It really has been quite a crazy ride back through memory lane putting this together, going over old recordings and footage. I’m finding myself feeling even more grateful for everything and everyone out there who has got me to this point. And don’t worry I’m not about to stop, I’m hoping in another 20 years there’ll be a Best Of #2! I still have a whole lot more to say, whether people wanna hear it or not, ha! Also, this Sunday at 8:40pm my show at the Melba Spiegeltent for Ausmusic Month airs on the ABC! I was joined by a superstar lineup of friends: Dan Sultan, Kasey Chambers, Ladychoir, Peter Garrett, Gretta Ray and Ben Abraham and it really was sooooo incredibly special. My mum and husband were in the audience and even got a bit of airtime, much to their surprise! I hope you love watching it, it really was an honour to be a part of. Next up for me is the Coming Home tour with John Butler Trio+ in Jan/Feb next year which is gonna be awesome!!! Tickets selling fast but some are still available at www.missyhiggins.com/shows so get in quick! Really looking forward to these shows with John, we go way back and there’s a lot of mutual respect there. I hope to see your lovely faces in the crowd somewhere soon. Thanks as always! Love Missy x

Sound checking with Peter Garrett for my show at the Melba Spiegeltent on ABC TV this Sunday night... me and the band were pinching ourselves, such an incredible honour to sing with you Pete!!! Tune in this Sunday eve on ABC at 8:40pm to see the whole set and me sing with so many other incredible artists! Kasey Chambers Dan Sultan Gretta Ray Ben Abraham and Lady Choir!

✨ 'Steer' (Live Earth 2007) ✨ Here's a clip of baby-me playing 'Steer' at Live Earth back in 2007! My gosh I can remember being SOOO nervous before this show. In fact, I'm pretty sure I never got over my nerves the whole gig because there was just a sea of people, and it was being broadcast all over the world! That was too much for my little brain to handle. It felt really good to play a show for such a great cause (climate change) though, and it was a real rush that so many people came out to support. Woah, these trips down memory lane are spinning me out. X p.s. some tickets are still available for my tour in Jan/Feb next year, with a new Gold Coast show just added - head to www.missyhiggins.com/shows for more info

Super honoured to be featured on The J Files yesterday with Gemma Pike! Have a listen if you want to experience a couple of hours of Missy Higgins nostalgia, including lots of me rambling on about my career to date, the ups and downs and what I don’t take for granted… Also I’m not sure who drew the illustration they’ve used but I’m very impressed with the bum-chin detail… x

✨ 'Everyone's Waiting' (Like A Version 2012) ✨ Ah, back when I was a blondie, I miss those days!! It was really fun going in to do Like A Version a second time round on triple j. My cover was of Gotye's 'Heart's A Mess' and then I played my own song, 'Everyone's Waiting'. I always love going in to the ABC to play piano songs because their grand piano is SOOOOO yummy and rich sounding, it just resonates through your whole body. Hope you like this little clip x

✨ 'Where I Stood' (Live on Jimmy Kimmel, 2008) ✨ This was a huge deal for me getting on a US Talk show! At the time my single 'Where I Stood' was going really well over there, better than any other song of mine had before. It started with Grey's Anatomy putting it in one of their episodes and then other TV shows followed like One Tree Hill, Smallville and a few others. Then Jimmy Kimmel Live! called, which I was so excited about. I remember meeting Sarah Silverman (his then partner) backstage and she was so sweet and supportive of us. 'Where I Stood' ended up going Gold in the US which I'm so proud of. I still love going back there and touring whenever I get the chance.

Hi friends! Today I’m releasing the very first recorded version of ‘All For Believing’ that’s on my album ‘The Special Ones’ coming out on Nov 23. I was in high school, and being known as a singer/songwriter I was chosen to be the guinea pig for a Roland Music equipment salesman visiting the school. The company apparently liked the song so much that they approached me to ask if they could record the song to be the official ‘demo’ on some their equipment. I was stoked! It was the first time anyone had showed interest in my songs and I felt honoured. This recording is the version my sister, a year or two later, would send in to triple j Unearthed… and winning that changed everything. There’s also a video that was made during the recording session in a hotel room - I am so young in this I can’t believe it was so long ago, ah - I must have been 15! Anyway I hope you enjoy this trip down memory lane as much as I do! Missy xx Pre-order 'The Special Ones' via www.missyhiggins.lnk.to/thespecialones

Hey friends, in the lead up to 'The Special Ones' (out Nov 23) I thought it'd be fun to take a trip down memory lane and remember some of the moments that are attached to the special songs on the album. First up is 'Scar' performed live at Wave Aid in Jan 2005. ...Check out baby me! I look like I've just woken up, probably had. There were so many amazing bands playing that day. I remember after my set, sitting right on the front of the stage at the side watching Peter Garrett pace and twitch and writhe to Midnight Oil and I was in absolute awe of him. Anyway, here's a little clip of 23 year-old me (very loudly!) singing what was my first number one single, Scar... Pre-order 'The Special Ones' via www.missyhiggins.lnk.to/thespecialones

Here's a little bit about my new single 'Arrows' 🏹 Listen to the full thing at http://www.missyhiggins.lnk.to/arrows

Missy Higgins

NEW ALBUM 'THE SPECIAL ONES' ✨ BEST OF OUT NOV 23, PRE-ORDER NOW via www.missyhiggins.lnk.to/thespecialones NEW SINGLE 'ARROWS' 🏹 OUT NOW. BUY / STREAM VIA www.missyhiggins.lnk.to/arrows To me, songs can be “special ones” for lots of reasons. Usually, they’re the ones that get the biggest reaction at gigs, the ones that most connect with people, the ones that seem to have touched on some universal truth. They’re the hooky ones you can sing out loud in the shower while no one’s watching and imagine you’re in a stadium. But some are special for other reasons. They’re the ones that unexpectedly squeeze at your heart. They move you in a way you find hard to articulate, they roll to the rhythm of some internal beat you knew was there but couldn’t quite express. This album tries to balance these two types of Special. I hope you enjoy it and, while listening, I hope you’re taken back to some special place in your memory you’d forgotten about. Musical time travel. And for the new songs on here you haven’t heard, maybe you can make some new memories. Special Ones, particular to just you. One of the new songs is a track called 'Arrows' I originally wrote for my wedding. The lower register of my voice actually changes a bit when I’m pregnant, I guess it’s the hormones or something but, anyway, I wanted to take advantage of those temporary extra notes to record this song. We only just made it. A couple of days later and it would’ve had to be a duet with our little girl! Missy xx More info incl. tracklisting: www.missyhiggins.com/thespecialones
