Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following massive commercial successes, the soft-rock duo sparked widespread controversy with the album's title track, an explicitly anti-abortion ballad responding to the recent Roe v. Wade decision. Despite the polarizing subject matter, the record retains their trademark lush harmonies, intricate acoustic guitar work, and spiritually influenced lyrics.
