Saint Etienne singer Sarah Cracknell releases her new single this week called ‘Take The Silver’, which features London folk duo, The Rails.
The track is lifted from her second solo album, Red Kite, which was released back in June.
As with many singles released at this time of year, ‘Take The Silver’ is poignant and lilting, and it could make you feel melancholy and reflective after a few cheeky ones. But once again, Cracknell’s reassuring voice offers something sweet to satisfy us as we wait for another Saint Etienne album – which apparently is in the offing.
After listening to ‘Take The Silver’, one fan on You Tube states: “In my dreams Dolly Parton has covered this.”
Which is, perhaps, all you need to know.
