Alison Moyet inspired a wave of fan anticipation when she announced the October 4th release date of her upcoming album KEY, a collection of 16 reworked singles, fan favorites and deep cuts boosted by two new songs. It quickly became Amazon’s #1 selling vinyl above Taylor Swift, Coldplay and Billie Eilish, while the world-class talent that propelled Alison to achieve two #1 albums, six Top 10 singles, three BRIT Awards and a GRAMMY® nomination was put back in the spotlight with a stunning Radio 2 Piano Room session. Watch HERE. Now Alison unveils the album’s third release, “So Am I.” Listen HERE.
One of the lesser-discovered gems from Alison’s published works, “So Am I” features on her 1994 album Essex. Lyrically, a wry and sardonic out-of-body observation of defeat, it is counted amongst Moyet’s favorites. The Key version refocuses attention on the song in a collection which aims to unify her back catalogue into a cohesive form for live presentation. Written with Ian Broudie of The Lightning Seeds, “So Am I” in its new iteration, joins the iconic re-visited “All Cried Out” and the brand-new song “Such Small Ale” in previewing the Key album. A set that contextualizes and acknowledges 40 years of original work, gathering together hits and deep cuts alike for an album where no re-packaging was desired. Produced and arranged by Sean McGhee, “So Am I” is also graced by Suede guitarist Richard Oakes, one of Alison’s other key collaborators in this collection.
