"Dwight's Daily Dose of New Music": In Case You Missed Her Last Hour

Today I feature the new single from KT Tunstall called "Private Eyes"

Here's some info from PlayMpe and m-music:

KT Tunstall burst onto the music scene with her 2004 multi-platinum debut, Eye to the Telescope, which spawned the global hits "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" and "Suddenly I See." These songs established Tunstall as a dynamic Performer and Songwriter with a singular knack for balancing introspective folk and ferocious rock.

In the last few years, the Grammy-nominated Scottish Musician has expanded on these musical selves by focusing on a trilogy of records, where each album zeroes in on a single concept: soul, body and mind. The first, 2016's KIN, was the soul record; 2018's WAX was the body record, and the new NUT is the mind record. Produced by Martin Terefe, who co-wrote her 2005 global hit "Other Side of the World," NUT draws on Tunstall's love of West African music, and is an eclectic album that seamlessly weaves together disparate styles.

The single, "Private Eyes," as KT comments: The song is about a soulless afterparty for some forgettable event in Soho, London, where a beautiful actress (who I didn’t know personally), grabbed my hand and led me down into the dingy basement kitchen in a panic; she was convinced the paparazzi stalking her outside would be the end of her, and she couldn’t face them. A tragic picture of desire turned into a prison. Beautiful eyes that didn’t want everyone looking into them.
