KT Tunstall is a sparkling new songwriter with Chinese
blood, a Scottish heart, great legwarmers and a cool name -
"well, it's got a bit more attitude than Kate which just
says farmer's daughter to me," she laughs. KT celebrates
classic singer-songwriting in the tradition of Rikki Lee
Jones, Carol King and Fleetwood Mac with an articulate,
accessible, immediate brew of rootsy sass, wistful quandary
and after-hours atmosphere. The latest in a line of
outstanding contemporary Scottish songwriters including
Texas, Fran Healy, Teenage Fanclub and The Beta Band, KT's
unique perspective offers a rare emotionally connecting
intensity through it's gripping lyrical bite and heartfelt
melody.

She grew up in the university town of St Andrew's
("beautiful but sheltered, a More...

    Review about KT Tunstall

    Messed up lyrics | Reviewer: kiera
        ------ About the song Black Horse & The Cherry Tree performed by KT Tunstall

    These are all the right lyrics. Don't look at any other place because I had to learn this song for school and the I got the wrong words. I came here and the teacher said that I was the only one who got the lyrics right!


    The ever-so-confusing song | Reviewer: kaitlyn
        ------ About the song Black Horse & The Cherry Tree performed by KT Tunstall

    this is how i would explain the song if i had to:

    big black horse= a guy that loved KT Tunstall
    cherry tree= a woman that loved the guy

    so at first she wasn't sure about this guy that 'asked her to marry him' because she new that he had broken up with some other girl who still loved him and after a couple years after she left him, she came back to find that he had re-fallen in love with the other girl and he was no longer avalible for her to take... it's still confusing even when someone explains it but still that's what i think this song is about.


    KT's tells the meaning of this song | Reviewer: Bamagal
        ------ About the song Black Horse & The Cherry Tree performed by KT Tunstall

    From another website, located the meaning of this song from KT herself: It amazes me how many different interpretations dervied from such a simple-thought song which was written simply from seeing a horse who had broken free. How awesome!

    In The Guardian newspaper of February 24, 2006, Tunstall explained: "It's a metaphor for good and evil. One summer, I was traveling in Greece on a little moped and this massive black horse had broken free in an olive grove and was going nuts. It looked apocalyptic: a seed was sown. I wrote the song years later in a tiny studio in Shepherd's Bush. I was about to tour Scottish coffee shops and was worried about coming across like Phoebe from Friends. At the same time I saw a brilliant guy called Son of Dave who looked like a ginger nylon 1980s' Elvis: really raw blues with just voice and effects. I got a pedal and one of my techie friends helped me put myself and my guitar through it. It's probably the most scientific I've been, but the song was written in a 10-minute burst. The lyrics where my 'Heart stops dead' refer to a heart murmur I had as a baby. I got into this fantasy that my heart felt betrayed and had decided to stop working. The song is about having to dig incredibly deep to find out who you wanna be." (thanks, Edward Pearce - Ashford, Kent, England)


    Beautiful | Reviewer: Rae
        ------ About the song Miniature Disasters performed by KT Tunstall

    I promised a lot of people I wouldn't listen to anything else about dying but this song is totally soothing and it's helped me a lot in just letting go and not trying to control my life anymore. I love KT Tunstall's work, I hope to get more of it soon.


    KT is LOVE! | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Little Favours performed by KT Tunstall

    I love this song :D.
    SHE WAS SO AMAZING WHEN SHE SANG THIS SONG LIVE!
    It sounds a lot better than it sounds on her album!

    GO TO HER CONCERTS IF YOU CAN.
    Even if you dislike her at the start, you'll just fall in love with her in the end ;)


    stirring fiery song | Reviewer: alease
        ------ About the song Black Horse & The Cherry Tree performed by KT Tunstall

    I think this is about a "good girl" who passes up a chance at a romance with a "forbidden,dangerous,"experienced"man.The "cherry tree" is a reference to the girls virginity.She tells herself that she does not want this man,that he is wrong for her.Down inside she desperately desires him.She "cuts him loose",gets far away from him,out of fear of what people would think,and fear of the dark passions he stirs in her.Years later she regrets it,and wants to be with him,but he has found love with another woman many years ago.The woman feels a great sense of loss and loneliness.She wishes with all of her soul that she would have followed her heart and taken the risk to gain this mans love when she had the chance.The chance will never come again......Alease


    KT is brilliant! | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About artist/band KT Tunstall

    I'm humbled and floored by KT's talent. Has anybody noticed how she does ALL of the parts live? Stacking the percussion parts, the backing vocals and harmonies, using delay stomp boxes... brilliant. Amazing. I tried it at home, stacking rhythm parts with a delay pedal, and it is almost impossible to get it to come out right... and she does it in front of a crowd! Her sense of timing is impeccable! KT is truly a one-woman band!


    wow | Reviewer: Steph R
        ------ About the song If Only performed by KT Tunstall

    remind | Reviewer: Arran
        ------ About the song Heal Over performed by KT Tunstall

    This song reiminds me of my gf, when she and i went through a bad patch in our relashionship, we heard this song and we knew we are gonna stay together no matter what happens.


    Perfection In A Song | Reviewer: stephanie b.
        ------ About the song Another Place To Fall performed by KT Tunstall

    This sums up my life at this point. Thirty something years and I have nothing left to give others. Turning down all favors. Desiring to be left alone. Wishing EVERYONE would find another place to fall as I seek out answers to myself.

    I love her soulful, soothing (sometimes scratchy) voice. All the perfect elements to deliver life's messages. While I don't love all of her songs, this one is definitely my favorite! :)

    KT Tunstall is my #1 | Reviewer: James
        ------ About artist/band KT Tunstall

    Last christmas was not really into music at all just a bit of Bowie, and for a crhistmas present i got given SingStar and i heard Black Horse And A CHerry Tree and just feel in love with the music. And i went on to the internet and heard her other stuff and the obsession grew larger and larger. So i got the albums eye to the telescope and acoutic extravaganza and felt i was her number one fan. And then the magnificent Drastic Fantastic came out and know i am her number one fan. And i just luv her and nobody else.


    Fade | Reviewer: Arden
        ------ About the song Through the Dark performed by KT Tunstall

    This is Such a good song. I've learned to play the chords on piano and have listened to it so many times. But I think It's Wisheson Eyelashes fade, not fail. Thanks for putting these up!


    Cherry Tree is a TC word | Reviewer: Neigh Bor
        ------ About the song Black Horse & The Cherry Tree performed by KT Tunstall

    The horse it was big, so this must be a big event.

    The cherry tree. It was cut down (supposedly) by George Washington and now this song is reviewing that event to determine if it actually happened. The horse is there to show strength, albeit only one single horsepower.

    The horse is black. Black is an allusion and an illusion. Black is strength, majesty. Being rescued is usually on a horse of white color. (Frankly if needing rescue the actual color plays little importance when selecting the horse.) Magic is sometimes black, good and evil, shadow and light. A dark horse is a political overture. Is the author and singer more clever than initially thought?

    Those aspects of humanity are simple to see. The part about marriage and then a kazoo break after the marriage (what happens during this non verbal interlude?) needs more time for analysis.

    Why was the horse asking is the puzzlement. Consider that the writer knew that the singer is stunningly hot and worked this in so live audiences would see her and know and get it.

    I do this for a living, plz do not attempt at home.


    Silent acceptance | Reviewer: Jean
        ------ About the song Silent Sea performed by KT Tunstall

    The song is about silent acceptance.

    "I was happy in my harbour
    When you cut me loose..."
    How someone in the relationship suddenly breaks off and the other, who is understanding and loving though hurt, chooses not to create a scene but silently accepts the fact that the relationship is over but still continues to love the person.

    "and when i find the controls
    i'll go where i like
    i'll know where i want to be
    but maybe for now
    i'll stay right here
    on a silent sea"
    Perhaps it's a kind of passiveness that says, "yes, you hurt me but I love you more than myself that I'll choose to understand you and accept and go along with what you want." The other person maybe opted to live with the lost love and not see other person, until he or she is completely healed.


    Black horse and the cherry tree | Reviewer: Casey
        ------ About the song Black Horse & The Cherry Tree performed by KT Tunstall

    I took the cherry tree to mean truth. And the black horse as temptation. And that our biggest regrets are not what we did, but what we didn't do when we had the chance.
