Courtney Barnett gets away from herself (and you) on ‘Need A Little Time’

While we’re out here waiting for the release of Courtney Barnett’s new album Tell Me How You Really Feel (out May 18), the Aussie rock champion has gifted us with another single and not-so-subliminal message on “Need A Little Time.” Following the release of “Nameless, Faceless”, “Need A Little Time” and its accompanying music video get right to the point: Barnett’s ready to GTFO. “’Need A Little Time’ has this soaring, floating feeling to it,” says visual collaborator Danny Cohen, who created the video. “I decided to play on the meaning of the song, Courtney needs some time away from herself (and you). I didn’t want to show Courtney leaving her friends/family/fans etc, it needed to be more metaphorical. Courtney floats through space and time, ends up in some isolated part of the universe. She finally has found some time alone, just Courtney and her guitar, singing in space without a care in the world.”
