Much More Music: KT Tunstall - Suddenly I See (2006)

Here's a real fun tune to strum along to on guitar. I was getting ready for my flight back to the Philippines when this song started playing on Pandora.

Sorta wished I had my guitar with me at the time so I could've played along with it.

Anyway, here's Scottish singer-songwriter KT Tunstall for ya, who broke into the music scene with "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" in 2005.

As for this song we have featured today- "Suddenly I See"- it's been featured prominently on film and TV- most notably, on the opening scenes of The Devil Wears Prada, as well as on Grey's Anatomy, The Hills, So You Think You Can Dance, Ugly Betty and even Cold Case.

Personally though, I associate "Suddenly I See" with Grey's Anatomy the most.

Anyway, here we have KT Tunstall, with a very fun video that's posted up on YouTube for you to play along to. Plus some lyrics and chords for your enjoyment. Have fun!
