Rosie Carney – Better Man (X Novo)
Rosie Carney - Better Man |
Release Date: Out Now
Before I get on with this review,
I just want to take issue with one thing. In her press release, it says that
Rosie Carney has been compared to Adele and while that might peak the attention
of the Heart FM slobbering masses that put me off immediately – I mean, Christ,
who needs another Adele? But, being the unpaid professional I am, I carried on
to listen anyway. Rosie Carney is nothing like Adele. Fact. Where Adele fits in
alongside the likes of Cilla Black, Carney is for more aligned with the likes
of PJ Harvey, Laura Marling, Bjork and Beth Orton – and she’s all the better
for it. ‘Better Man’ is a delicate, soft and touching song that gently sways
like the branches of a Weeping Willow in a soft early evening breeze. Carney’s
voice, while ultimately soothing, is also incredibly disarming but at least she
isn’t banging on about Adele’s ex, let’s leave that to Adele.
