JJ Rosa turns tragedy into inspiration on heartfelt new single
Out of tragedy comes inspiration, and none more so than for JJ Rosa who, in the wake of the Paris attacks, wrote Where Is The Mercy as a tribute to it's victims.
Heartfelt and emotive, yet a sure-fire dance floor filler, Where Is The Mercy is an infectious nugget of shimmering synth pop, no wonder then that she calls super-producer Labrinth a pal.
"Where is the mercy in the world right now?" Rosa questions over pulsing synths, before the bombast of the chorus that showcases the sheer power of her pipes.
It's confirmation too, that Rosa wasn't simply reciting her dad's record collection when she likened herself to Prince and Jimi Hendrix, as the track boasts a killer guitar solo with the kind of shredding that wouldn't sound out of place on a classic rock record.
Where Is The Mercy may be a primed piece of pop perfection, but it's emotion-soaked lyrics ensure it will stand the test of time, long after the chart success it deserves.
Proof then, that out of tragedy can also come a great pop song.
