I love Pink as much as the next person. She's fit, she's fierce and her music is fun. But, I've always been a big fan of Dallas Green and will forever be in love with his soft voice and Canadian charm. I was immediately obsessed with Alexisonfire and followed them until their (devastating) break up in 2012. I was so angry with Dallas after that, I had to put City & Colour on the back burner for a bit. It's hard when your favourite band splits, and at times you can be irrational... right?
Anyway, Dallas had announced that he and Alecia Moore would be doing a song together awhile ago, but then surprised his fans a few weeks ago by announcing that not only had he and Pink wrote a song, they recorded an entire album called Rose Ave. It was released last Tuesday and I've been listening to it non stop all week. It's hauntingly beautiful ballads make my heart two sizes too big, reminding me of listening to the older country and folk songs my dad sang to us since we were kids, with a little modern twist.
If you haven't given Rose Ave a listen yet, I suggest you do. Even if you aren't a fan of Dallas Green or Pink, because it doesn't really sound like either of them. Well, it is similar to City & Colour, but, it's definitely something different for Alecia and showcases her voice in a very different light. And ending the album with a Sade cover? So much swooooooon.
