about

The newest release from kitti is “how long?”

A song written in lockdown, fuelled by the sheer frustration of feeling trapped indoors while not being able to fulfil physical desires with a love interest.

This is the first of 2 full live band recordings to be released this year, produced at Park Lane Studios in the Southside of Glasgow.

kitti makes an impact with this song, with a strong groove and punchy hornlines. While surprising listeners with an unexpected time change, this song perfectly captures the exasperation of life in lockdown and the true nature of the madness of feeling infatuated with someone and not being able to see them.

lyrics

ive been stuck on the same one
ive been holding out for some fun
with you

i keep hanging on this boy
but i can’t seem to get any joy
with you

Oh tell me
how long
is it gonna be?
how long
until you set me free?
how long

Oh tell me
how long
will it stay like this
how long
until i get my kiss
how long

you been teasing me since the start
now you gone and captured my heart
oh no

i don’t want it to be this way
want you to tell me if you feel the same
do you?

Oh tell me
how long
is it gonna be?
how long
until you set me free?
how long

Oh tell me
how long
will it stay like this
how long
until i get my kiss
how long

SAX SOLO

when will you take me out of this misery
i'd love to stick around but i got places to be

Oh tell me
how long
is it gonna be?
how long
until you set me free?
how long

Oh tell me
how long
will it stay like this
how long
until i get my kiss
how long
