"Suddenly I See" is a song by Scottish singer-songwriter KT Tunstall and is featured on her debut album, Eye to the Telescope. It was released on 29 August 2005 as the third single (second single in United States) from the album, charting at #12 in the UK Singles Chart (see 2005 in British music). The single was a hit in Australia where it charted at #6 on the ARIA Singles Chart. It was also certified gold by ARIA for sales of 35,000 copies. The song was Tunstall's highest charting in the United Kingdom, and spent 26 weeks in the Top 75 Singles. "Suddenly I See" won her an Ivor Novello Award in 2006 in the category of Best Song Musically and Lyrically. It is inspired by New York singer and poet Patti Smith, whose album cover for Horses also inspired Tunstall's album cover for Eye to the Telescope. In the summer of 2006, "Suddenly I See" became popular in the United States after being featured prominently at the beginning of the movie The Devil Wears Prada. The song also features at the end of the film Blind Dating, which was released in the same year, starring Chris Pine. It was also the farewell music for female contestants eliminated from the television show So You Think You Can Dance, featured on the season finale of the MTV show The Hills, at the end of a Ghost Whisperer season two episode, for promotional clips of The Amazing Race: All Stars, and the series premiere of Ugly Betty. The song has also been used in Cold Case (5.03 - Running Around). Jennie Garth and Derek Hough performed a quickstep to a cover of the song for their performance in week 2 of season 5 of Dancing With The Stars. KT also performed the song live on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. The song was one of the candidates for Hillary Clinton's campaign song. It features in the Torchwood episode "Greeks Bearing Gifts". It was also played in Grey's Anatomy episode "Enough is Enough (No More Tears)" in 2005. The song is featured on the soundtrack of the game Thrillville in the park radio stations and was used in the trailer for the Jessica Simpson movie Blonde Ambition. The song is also the song played for the new Next advert celebrating their 25th anniversary. The song came to be satirized in an episode of Best Week Ever, which mocked the concept of how films and television shows frequently played it during uplifting, feminist scenes, and went on to play the song while contrastly depicting degrading images of women working in sweatshops and strip clubs. It also appears in the Playstation 2 version of Dance Dance Revolution SuperNOVA 2 and the theme park building simulation game, Thrillville. [info courtesy: wikipedia.org]
