K.T.Tunstall,一个身上流有中国血液的苏格兰人,在她的歌中,我们可以听到Coldplay 和Beth Orton的感动。
也许从kt的这张脸上我们很难辨认出她拥有1/4中国人的血统,kt的祖母是中国人,而她则从小被苏格兰古镇st. andrew的一个家庭领养,kt的养父母虽经常外出,但kt的童年还算在快乐中度过,而时常从哥哥房间里飘出来的重金属乐,却成为了kt与音乐的第一次接触。
一直以来这样的女声不想引人注目都不容易,例如dido、Norah Jones等等,所以也难免拿来相互比较。个人感觉也许是年龄及生活历练的关系,kt的声音听起来没有dido淳厚和苍凉淡泊,没有norah jones喧嚣的jazz,给人总体的感觉很温暖却不失张力。

Over the sea and far away
She's waiting like an Iceberg
Waiting to change,
But she's cold inside
She wants to be like the water,
All the muscles tighten in her face
Buries her soul in one embrace
They're one and the same
Just like water
Then the fire fades away
But most of everyday
Is full of tired excuses
But it's too hard to say
I wish it were simple
But we give up easily
You're close enough to see that
You're....
the other side of the world
to me
