KT Tunstall - Saving My Face

Scotland has developed a knack of not paying due respect to its home-grown success stories. KT Tunstall is undoubtedly one of them, having gone from coffee shop busker to platinum-shifting star in a mere few years. But this latest single from her second album is disappointingly banal. It's over-produced, musically-predictable, and where's that rasping bluesy voice that previously set her apart from the Radio 2 pack? Tunstall may now be a millionaire, but by so willingly compromising her individuality she'll soon find herself back where she started: in the coffee shops, as background muzak this time round.
