Tanita Tikaram shares new single "I See A Morning"

Tanita Tikaram today unveiled a brand-new track written specifically to convey a sense of hope in increasing turbulent and aggressive times. I See a Morning is the third track to be lifted from her eagerly awaited new album ‘LIAR (Love Isn’t A Right)’ released on 10 October 2025.

At the heart of I See a Morning is the political passion that drove Tanita Tikaram to write the sequel to her multi-million ‘Ancient Heart’. A sense of a return to human impatience and lack of acceptance in the world and the incomprehensible hatred that confronts you every time you turn on the news.

Tanita Tikaram said, “We are living in a time when fundamental freedoms are under threat all over the world, characterised by a frightening normalisation of violence, extreme inequality and authoritarian government.

”It can be difficult as an individual to feel positive, but there is hope in the way that people come together forming groups and communities to challenge those ideas and fight for a world built on compassion and social justice.

“The idea that we can be better I find deeply moving and I See a Morning is about that.”

Taken from the long-awaited ‘LIAR (Love Isn’t A Right)’, the sequel to her debut ‘Ancient Heart’, the album reveals the emotional and societal differences between the woman Tanita was to the woman she is today, taking in four decades of life experience. It is an album of haunting beauty and exquisite musicianship underplaying her unique voice that tells a masterful story of emotional, political and personal truths.

When it was released in 1988, the multi-million selling ‘Ancient Heart’ was the story of an uncertain 18-year-old brown gay woman living in middle England feeling like a stranger in her own home. Almost 40 years later that same woman, now feeling like a stranger in her own country as politics and society become more divisive. ‘LIAR (Love Is A Right)’ is a full circle moment: a comment on community and its importance for all our futures and the perfect accompaniment to her classic breakthrough
