This is the Kit - This is What You Did

[@thisisthekit]

i had the great honour and pleasure of working with the mighty james slater on this video he has done a beautiful job of capturing the energy of the song with a kind of zoetrope based animation video collage. james is the greatest.

Absolutely loving this tune after hearing it a few times on BBC radio 6 music

[@nicktinsley7779]

God, I friggin' LOVE THIS WOMAN!!! She's my 'new' PJ Harvey! My 'new' Kate Bush! My 'new' Allison Goldfrapp! My 'new' Bjork! My 'new' Karen Dalton (it's the Banjo regarding this comparison!) =oD So, yeah, I'm worshipping at Ms.Stables' altar nowadays! Thanks for the signed postcard and free Earthquake on blue 7" vinyl, Kate!!! XxXx

[@funkyjones]

Just heard this on the radio coming home from work and was delighted and intrigued. This is probably the most refreshing music I've heard in the last couple of years. I'm gonna look into the Kit!

[@blazedbug]

Between the healthy relationship I've been building with my mental health, and my challenging relationship with my body (recently underwent shoulder surgery due to years of overstrain at work and not holding my boundaries); this song couldn't have reached me at a better time. Let's just say I teared up when I heard this song.

[@thewildbulldogs3271]

This song gives me the best excitement!from Japan!!!

Love this. A new This Is The Kit album is just the good news I needed this morning. Hope to catch you play in Bristol some time this autumn.

Is anyone else reminded of traditional music from Zambia and Zimbabwe? Or am I just bias? Stunning song, even though it hits hard as I am struggling at the moment.

Discovered Kate Stables beautiful voice through her collaboration with Jesca Hoop, from the album Stone Child. So, I'm relatively new to "The Kit". Can't stop spinning Off Off On! Looking forward to discovering more of Kate and the Kit.

[@minervalopez8539]

This is a rip off of Cycling trivialities by Jose Gonzalez!!!

[@EdenLippmann]

Sure, except for how it has different melodies, different instrumentation, different lyrics, different song structure, and different production. You really think Gonzalez invented singing over guitar arpeggios?

[@dzordzi]

This is such a rip off of José's González - Cycling Trivialities! Shame shame shame!

[@EdenLippmann]

You know, I've seen a few people say this, and I've got ask; do you think Gonzalez invented this kind of music? Cause, from what I've heard, there's nothing he's doing that Joni Mitchell, Toni Morrison, Tori Amos, Eddie Reader, Feist, etc. weren't doing back in the eighties. And you're really going to say a three minute up-tempo falk-rock track is a rip-off of a seven minute ambient ballad because ... they both have guitar arpeggios? The thing people have been using since the guitar was invented? Is it because thay have similar subjects? Anxiety is a pretty universal theme. Are the chord sequences too similar? I hate to break it to you, but artists use similar chord sequences all the time. If you want radically inventive harmonies you should listen to someone like Ornette Coleman.
