The Pretenders have released a new song, ‘I Think About You Daily’, featuring Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood. It’s the closing track and second single from the upcoming album Relentless, following ‘Let The Sun Come In’. Check it out below.
“I met Jonny a couple of times, and we’re obviously big fans of him because he’s done some incredible music over the years,” Chrissie Hyde said in a statement. “I saw him at the Phantom Thread première where the film was running on screen with a live orchestra playing. And we spoke afterward and he expressed an interest in doing something one day. I was thrilled and very surprised. He also came down to see a Valve Bone Woe show we were doing in the basement of a Pizza Express. So when we discussed the idea of getting strings on ‘I Think About You Daily,’he was the first choice. Legend!”
Greenwood added: “It was a genuine honor to score strings for Chrissie. The arrangement wrote itself because of that voice. She’s one of the greatest singers in popular music, and her continuing passion for creation was an inspiring experience from first the email to the last note of the recording.”
Relentless is due for release September 15 via Rhino.
