Tanita Tikaram - Liar (Love Isn't A Right) [CD]

37 years after the release of her multi-million selling debut album 'Ancient Heart' Tanita Tikaram will release the sequel entitled 'LIAR (Love Isn't A Right)'. The long-awaited new album reveals the emotional and societal differences between the woman Tanita was at just 18 when she made 'Ancient Heart' to the woman she is today, taking in four decades of life experience. 'LIAR (Love Isn't A Right)' is released on 10 October 2025 via Cooking Vinyl. Her first album in almost a decade, 'LIAR (Love Isn't A Right)' is an album of haunting beauty and exquisite musicianship underplaying her unique voice that tells a masterful story of emotional, political and personal truths. When it was released in 1988, the multi-million selling 'Ancient Heart' was the story of an uncertain 18-year-old brown gay woman living in middle England feeling like a stranger in her own home. Almost 40 years later that same woman, now feeling like a stranger in her own country as politics and society become more divisive. 'LIAR (Love Is A Right)' is a full circle moment: a comment on community and its importance for all our futures and the perfect accompaniment to her classic breakthrough. Celebrated as a maverick music icon Tanita Tikaram was recently featured in the Venice Biennale exhibition by Sonia Boyce OBE RA and previously in the National Portrait Gallery captured by David Bennett. She returned to play at Glastonbury Festival in 2024 and as well as her acclaimed musical output over the years, Tanita has also developed a popular voice on social media, capturing the mood and zeitgeist of our times. Tanita Tikaram continued, ''You never set out to make a sequel album but this just felt right. I see myself both now and then, frustrated, alienated and in part fearful of the future, they just manifested in different ways.''
