There's fire in their atmosphere but calmness in the heart of Rose.
Waiting for the time to come, the universe to form.
Tell me who I have to pray

To live a life like Rose.
To live a life like Rose.
To live a life like Rose.
To live a life like Rose.

It's cloudy in the Holland sky but nothing hides to joys of Rose.
Details in the summer frame becoming simple thoughts.
Show me where I need to stay

To live a life like Rose.
To live a life like Rose.
To live a life like Rose.
To live a life like Rose.

As someone else said earlier, the more i'm hearing it the more i'm liking it.
Sounding a lot like Half Moon Run (also from Quebec.) 

Or maybe HMR sounds like Bears of Legend?

In any case, very good. 
Thanks RP.
Lovely track, never heard of them before....and for it to follow Billie Eilish's track in the same key, genius Bill!
I love the instrumental climax section after the vocals stop which then finishes off the song

Nice.  I think a McMahon jersey wouldn't look bad squeezed in there somewhere.
This I like.  Good drama and dynamics.
Grows with subsequent listens.
To live a lifelike Rose? What does that even mean?
Wow! RP does it again!
This group is practically down the street, yet I've never heard of them.
And that's a darn shame 'cause they're good, at least to my auditory receptors.
An easy 8...
Oh, and here's more: https://bearsoflegend.com/home
And even more:  Théâtre Petit-Champlain, Québec
Reposting, because...

Did you try hitting the skip button harder? Like, coming down on it like a ton of bricks.

Might also try that big red X in the upper right corner of the screen 😜

Channeling My Morning Jacket, Fleet Foxes, and Lord Huron. Not that that's a bad thing...  not at all.

It's from Dr. Who, which was revived by the BBC in 2005. "Rose" was the travelling companion to the Doctor in the initial seasons of the rebooted series. The actors for the Doctor and for his/her companion change from time to time, and this photo is from one of the David Tennant/Billie Piper years.




and hearing this song on what is Bille Piper's birthday. 22nd Sept.

We appreciate you staying aroung long enough to leave a comment.

This is definitely growing on me.  I like the use of dynamics and the arrangements work.  8 -> 9
Melodic melancholy without an ounce of dread! Very nice, indeed!
A sunbeam direct in my heart.

For those in the US who don't know David Tennant, you may recognise him from playing a character in Marvel's Jessica Jones.

So the band possibly consists of pandas, but NOT the unrelated red panda?
 

Definitely NOT the '85 Chicago Bears (Superbowl Shuffle)
Much better.   Gets a 7 from me.

Feeling unaccountably upset on behalf of red pandas everywhere

Exactly!  That's what I was hoping this song was about.
First time hearing this. I love it.

Unrelated Red Pandas are a different band entirely.

6 to 7 ... Beautiful!!

Wikipedia punted on this one. And nice new player page Bill. 

AMazon has three albums under these guys. Interesting. 
I dig this sound. The vocals are beautiful and the music accompanying it.

Such a beautiful song. 
first time hearing this ... gave it a 6 ..
Who is or was Rose?
I like the song, would like to know what the inspiration might have been.
This song makes me feel sad, but I really like it
Well, at least there are no French songs from Quebec played on RP ...........     

But I have lots, so I think I will sign off RP for a bit.
You're streaming such good music these Sunday morning..

Thanks a lot!

smiles from Colombia 
Nice band
watch this dancing clip "Fade into you" with Fred Astaire and Rita Hayworth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0petKBBijxE
 
Bonjour de la France !
Lots going on in this tune. Nice work.
There is a very good live version of this on you tube.
Liking this started out a bit alt country/folk and ended up nicely layered.
Nice slideshow photos on this one!
Everybody between my chair and keyboard loves this song.


Cool.  Driving up to Montreal tomorrow, so I can tell the band what I think of their music in person. {#Wink}


Beary nice

Nice tune.  It seems like there are a lot of "bear" bands lately: Grizzly Bear, Boy & Bear, Bear In Heaven, Minus The Bear.

 
Bearnaked Ladies
ok this would sound awesome live in a small Montreal club, after a half dozen pints while a henna-haired vixen lap dances me through the set... otherwise, eh its alright 
I am loving this!! There just have not been many bands to fill the holes of beloved prog-ish like bands,(Genesis, Yes, Kansas etc).
From 8 to 9 in the same first listening. Really fantastic 
Wife
Rose who?
I bought both their albums after hearing this one song here - pretty good stuff throughout

For the benefit of the square heads on the forum (yes, all you Anglophones....),

du Québec = from the province of Québec

de Québec = from the City of Québec 

Your friendly neighbourhood square head on the other side of the country, de la part de monsieur slope 

P.S.  Am guessing that in addition to fans of Yes, a fan or two of Sui Generis might find a connection to this song.

A great song from another band from the province of Quebec in Canada. I've seen Bears of Legend in concert many times in Quebec, but they are now starting to tour in Europe.

Wow great song !

Me ha encantao!!! Preciosa!!!


Very nice ...

The harmonies remind me of late Yes - e.g. Fly from Here - in particular, Sad Night at the Airfield ...

But that is no bad thing ...
I wish it were possible to see my brainwave patterns when I listen to RP.  You guys put me in such a wonderful ZONE!   This piece typifies your thoughtful selection!
