简介
Actress Nikki Reed and American Idol alum Paul McDonald recently announced their separation, just a little more than three years after they met on an Idol episode and married after a whirlwind courtship. But over the course of their relationship, they worked on music together as a Civil Wars-like duo — and this week, their independently released full-length debut album is finally out. With a title like I'm Not Falling and tracks like "Misery," "Bouquet of Lies," "Don't Let Me Go," and "Goodbye," the record may seem like a classic breakup/divorce album, a la Fleetwood Mac's Rumours or Richard & Linda Thompson's Shoot Out the Lights. And it does have that classic feel. (It's certainly a better breakup album than Robin Thicke's failed Paula; in fact, it's a gorgeous listen.) But some of the most romantic tracks, like "The Best Part" and "All I Ever Wanted," were originally written and recorded during earlier stages of their marriage. Either way, the two now want the public focus to be on the music itself, not on their personal lives.
