Lucy Rose
This Ain't The Way You Go Out

 

 

 

 

 

72--90点相当

 

日本では、アニメ 蟲師 続章のOP で採用され

そっち方面でも少し名が知られている。

 

毎作、雰囲気先行なところがあるものの

質の高い作品を作っているが、

評価的には、どうもいまいちな感じとなっていた。

 

今作、若干サウンド的にも幅が広がったか、

リズムのサウンドに重点を置いた感じ。

 

まぁでも、要素的には、

2012--2015年の Like I Used To や Work It Out に

近いところがあり、原点回帰になっているのかも。

 

 

ようやく、作品の実力とメディアの評価が

一致してきたかな?といった感じ。

 

 

 

 

A lot happened to U.K. singer/songwriter Lucy Rose after releasing the quietly poignant No Words Left in 2019. Having toured relentlessly since her late teens, she both welcomed and was forced to take a break from music while much of the world sheltered from COVID-19 throughout 2020. Still on hiatus, she welcomed her first child in mid-2021. After experiencing worsening, then debilitating back pain in the weeks to follow, she was eventually diagnosed with a rare form of pregnancy-induced osteoporosis that had resulted in multiple fractured vertebrae. Making music was hardly on her mind as she sought treatment, finally finding success with hydrotherapy that allowed her to move freely and lift her child again. With time, she sat down at the piano -- for five minutes or so, long enough for a song -- which was enough to get her writing again. In 2023, Rose accepted an offer from Paul Weller to book some time at his studio in Surrey; in the meantime, she accepted a different offer to fly to New York to work with rapper/producer Logic. From Logic, she took the concept of "open creativity" -- a philosophy of both involving and trusting those around you in the recording process -- into her Surrey sessions with producer Kwes. (Sampha, Solange). Although admittedly well-rehearsed before entering the studio, this resulted in the more immediate, jazzy spirit of This Ain't the Way You Go Out, which they began by laying down six songs live in a single day.
