Paolo Nutini Releases “Shine A Light,” The Third Single From Last Night In The Bittersweet
After an eight year hiatus since his previous album, Caustic Love, Paolo Nutini finally returns with the release of his new single, “Shine A Light.” “Shine A Light” is the third single released from his forthcoming album, Last Night in The Bittersweet (out July 1st). Paolo Nutini’s dreamy vocals artfully combined a string section, with drums and guitar give “Shine A Light” an 80’s vibe. The song starts with strings, before switching to a simple bass rhythm that is joined in by drums. Nutini’s vocals are powerful, but with a mellow undertone that builds up to the end of the song, where he releases raspy screams while singing the ending “Shine A Light” chorus. Along with sounding as though the song could sit alongside other 80’s classics such as U2’s “New Years Day,” the visualizer for “Shine A Light” is reminiscent of video cassette cases, further evoking a feeling of nostalgia.
