You+Me is the project of P!nk and Canadian singer-songwriter Dallas Green, two of the most notable voices in music today. While such prominent voices rarely mix too seamlessly, P!nk and Green were destined to harmonize together. The duo already dropped their gentle lead track "You And Me" weeks ago, and now, the duo returns with a heartfelt new selection, "Break the Cycle," from their upcoming duet debut record, "rose ave," out on October 14.
The powerful chilling ballad and somewhat-haunting Americana track, "Break the Cycle," is a love song dedicated to P!nk's mother, and it emphasizes the two singers' incredible harmonies over subtle guitar strumming and stirring strings. P!nk is embarking on a new musical journey, joining Green for a foray into folk that steers far from her more familiar rowdy behavior. Keeping in line with the acoustically driven tone of their gentle first track, "You and Me," strings float in and out as P!nk and Green sit an octave apart atop sparse strums during the verses.
In the chorus, the duo harmonizes with a more upbeat feel, and declares across the hopeful chorus that matched in lyrics like, "Let me heal the wounds you've held onto for all these years/ Break the cycle, break the chains/ Love is louder than all your pain." P!nk has always been excellent at conveying strong emotions in her music, and this stripped-down production shows her softer folk and country music side and only allows her words to stand out stronger than ever.
Described as 'a passion project' for the talented two, they've opted for low-key with a simple, yet elegant accompanying video to "Break The Cycle." The grainy, sepia-toned video appears to be filmed in the countryside, and showing the singers parading and singing around in a mountainous country setting, which perfectly suits the song's simple yet majestic arrangement. Filmed with an old-school grainy filter, "Break the Cycle" enhances the country vibe with You+Me's hip Little House on the Prairie-esque looks.
