Cocorosie

In the organizer's words:

The entire CocoRosie project-which has, above all else, been a conduit for sisters Bianca and Sierra Casady's connection-has been leading up to these words: "if no one in the world understands, at least I have you". They are the chorus of their latest song 'LEAST I HAVE YOU', as well as the spiritual reward for Sierra and Bianca's twenty year-long stint of carrying one another's pain and transmuting it into trashy treasure. In another artist's mouth they might scan as trite, but in the sisters' they are revelatory. CocoRosie has a unique talent for turning the kitsch primordial, the platitudinous into fresh truths. And no one has earned those nakedly sentimental words as much as the Casady sisters. 'Least I Have You' is the hardest-earned and purest distillation of the CocoRosie project yet.

The song's musical arc mirrors the sisters' relationship: it begins combatively, with the sound of gun-toting guitar squalls and beats like Street Fighter punches, before leveling out into tentative euphoria, cautiously crawling towards the ecstatic union of that chorus.

"Up until this song, we used to take our pain out on each other," says Sierra. "Until we allowed our sisterhood to become the antidote to the damage that came in our younger years." The song, Bianca adds, came "just in a simple way." "It's vulnerable. It's cute. It's cliche. It's all these things I don't think we would have been able to approach in the past."
