THE RUBENS – SINGLE REVIEW


The Rubens feat. Sarah – Never Ever 

The Rubens feat. Sarah - Never Ever

Release Date: Out Now

There aren’t enough proper duets in music these days so it’s refreshing to hear one in the shape of new single ‘Never Ever’ from the Rubens featuring guest vocals from Sarah Aarons. The New South Wales band bring back memories of the Gotye/Kimbra face-off as they place out a sad and regretful modern break-up atop a sparse piano line and steady pop beat. The vocals contradict each other like lovers heading in different directions but when they come together again at the end you see the last embers of that spark that ignited the passion in the first place. The brutally honest closing line of “I think you broke my fucking heart” is brilliantly raw but also completely throw-away as the song finishes and life moves inevitably on to something else.


Live Dates:

18th May – The Beery, Terrigal NSW
