I didn't believe it when I first heard about this, but it seems to be true; the title track to Corporate America. Melocicrock.com has a listing for a band called "Downer's Revenge" and a download of one of "their" songs. Well, it's Boston.
First of all, I don't know how melodicrock.com got a copy of this before anybody else or why they are covering it up as another person's work. But I checked it out anyway...
A few things about the song. First, it seems that Fran is the lead singer on this track, with Kimberley and Tom on backup (can't hear Brad there so I assume he isn't on this song). Signature Boston drum triggers and organ. First for a Boston song is the "reporter montage" (clips of reporters in background).
Anyway, it's currently available for download from melodicrock.com
Lyrics are now available for this song.

Well, the webmaster from boston.org has released the following statement:
I know that everyone is waiting for official information regarding the new album. I hope to have more to tell you shortly. There is a great deal of work going into this release and all of the events surrounding it! It's getting closer! Look for more news soon!
It's looking more likely that the info circulating has some truth to it.
