Country-loving rockers Wilco have previewed a work-in-progress tracklisting for their still-untitled eighth album. After much blogosphere speculation, they've also confirmed a guest vocal from Canadian crooner Leslie Feist.

"Jim Scott and the band spent the last few weeks mixing in Jim's studio in Valencia, California," blog Wilco. "Here's a list of song titles spied on the reels - note this is not necessarily complete and not in sequence."

Deeper Down
Conscript (aka I'll Fight)
One Wing
Solitaire
Wilco (the song)
Country Disappeared
Everlasting
Bull Black Nova
Sonny Feeling
You and I

"Rumors and blogs regarding a guest appearance on that last track are, amazingly, quite true. Feist does indeed lend a great vocal to You And I."

Commercial love

While the thought of a Feist/Wilco collaboration sounds impossibly cool, just imagine the commercial potential! 1,2,3,4 The Thanks I Get iPod-ready Volkswagon, anyone?
