Here’s another reason to look past the holidaze in well into 2022: Miles Kane has a new record out January 21 called Change The Show. And as an appetizer, the British artist has today (November 24) released “Nothing’s Ever Gonna Be Good Enough,” a new retro-pop horns n’ piano duet with Corinne Bailey Rae.
“This is all about that feeling of giving everything you’ve got to something/someone, but feeling like you’re never quite getting the same energy back,” says Kane. “And how sometimes the harder you try and reach for it, the further away it becomes.”
The track was born during lockdown one night after the pair spent some time sending songs to each other. “I love the back and forth between us,” Kane quips. “I wanted an Ike and Tina vibe, not a gratuitous guest. Unfortunately, we had to record it remotely, but we’ll perform it on stage together I’m sure.” Rae adds: ”I love this song and can’t get it out of my head. So pleased to be on it with my dear friend Miles.”
