Pop singer Pink’s country/folk album – words you probably never expected to read – came about when she found common musical ground with Dallas Green, formerly of Canadian hardcore band Alexisonfire. As You + Me, the pair explore pastoral byways, and it’s a partnership of equals – while Pink often dominates their harmonies due to the featheriness of Green’s voice, she gives him plenty of space. The album was recorded in eight days, and sounds it: tracks such as Second Guess, which brings to mind Robert Plant and Alison Krauss’s warm alliance, feel like demos, but that’s fine. The sketchier and more organic a track – such as Unbeliever, with its drowsy acoustic guitar and vague musings about being “a thousand miles from nowhere” – the more charming. Their cover of No Ordinary Love, stripped of any adornment but piano, makes Sade’s original sound like Metallica. Pink, credited here under her real name, Alecia Moore, slips in a few scaled-down power ballads, but these are also utterly lovely.
