Rose Elinor Dougall (ex-Pipettes) :: “Another Version Of Pop Song”
Posted by PJ in The Yellow Stereo
I was pretty disappointed with the news earlier in the year of The Pipettes breaking up, as I thought they were an exciting group who had a lot of fun with their music, and brought some unique quirks and personality to their brand of pop. Well, they’re not dead as they’ve recouped their members, but I don’t think I can look at that group the same way again.
But what about Rosay and RiotBecki? What are they up to now? Well, Rosay – just Rose Elinor Dougall now, thanks – made her first single available to the masses. Obviously from the title it’s a pop song, but there’s some confidence and maturity to it as Rose sings of a yearning for love. Wow, super cheesy sentence I just typed. Sorry about that.
Oh, what about those Pipettes? Take a look for yourself of the new lineup. Weird.

You said “but I don’t think I can look at that group the same way again” and that is exactly what has been on my mind regarding The Pipettes since they broke and re-de-constituted. I suppose I could be a bit more generous but honesty serves in the end and on the bottom line and the fact is that Rose was the mouthpiece of The Pipettes. They may evolve into something new and awesome — but never will they be anything like they were.
The good news was brought to me by you when I ran across your post here (I’m a wee slow — I read far too many blogs and follow way too many female artists/groups) and it brought me such elation to read your words, which said in that one snippet I quoted all of what I was thinking, and to hear Rose singing again — and good material… well I must say this thrills me but good.
Great job you’re doing — keep up the excellent work.
