Black Horse and the Cherry Tree (2005)
KT Tunstall
Rating: 4.5
KT Tunstall, a Scottish singer, really shows off her vocal strength in "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree". With wonderful guitar lines, great backup vocals, and a subtle drum beat, this song went to the top of the charts in several countries. The lyrics are clever and intelligent, and Tunstall's delivery is spot-on.
I have heard a few other songs by Tunstall, but they never managed to impress me as much as this one. If you haven't heard it before, I suggest you do so as soon as possible.
"Big black horse and a cherry tree/ I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me."
(Side note: this isn't one of the main 1001.)
