Tones & I Returns With New Single, 'Eyes Don't Lie'

Staff Writer

"'Eyes Don’t Lie’ is written about a large loss of someone/something. Resenting the person/feeling you get and realising it was a toxic person/feeling all along."

More Tones & I Tones & I

Global superstar Tones & I has returned, releasing her new single Eyes Don't Lie.

The track is her first release since last year's chart-topping debut record Welcome To The Madhouse.

Eyes Don't Lie has landed alongside an official video, directed by Tones & I, Nick Kozakis and Liam Kelly, which was shot at locations near Newcastle and Adelaide.

The track begins a new era for the record-breaking artist and sees her exploring the feeling of loss and the resulting learning that has to be done following it.

Tones & I states, “Eyes Don’t Lie is written about a large loss of someone/something. Resenting the person/feeling you get and realising it was a toxic person/feeling all along.

"Someone taking advantage of you and you taking advantage of yourself. Feeling better off and putting that last bit of bitterness behind you.

"The music video reflects being alone, but not lonely. Escaping something that hurt and happy to be wherever else, even though it’s over. I am still reflecting and telling my story one last time, before I move on.”
