When they first broke into the charts with the gimmicky hit "#Selfie" in 2014, many detractors were ready to dismiss the dance music duo The Chainsmokers as a one-hit wonder. "Roses" is an elegant, irresistibly catchy return for Andrew Taggart and Alex Pall. The song is gaining international attention and is nearing the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. The vocals are courtesy American singer Elizabeth Mencel who records under the name ROZES.
