Songs like this are why I have this blog. The bulk of the songs of Welsh-Australian singer-songwriter Stella Donnelly are not really my thing. Decent indie folk, but too rock for me. Which is fine, I don’t judge artists because they make music for other people. But this quiet, piano-led Year of Trouble, in which Stella sings about a broken relationship (or is it a friendship?) is so beautiful and hits me right in the feels every time I play it. This is why I blog. “Gradually wе both lead different lives / Wish I could hear about what you like”.
