![]() Three more singles off Fefe Dobson would follow “Take Me Away,” the album’s first international release, became its only song to chart on the Billboard 100.ĭobson’s next two decades saw a gauntlet of professional and personal highs and lows. Her first album was led in Canada by the single “Bye Bye Boyfriend,” a guitar-driven kiss-off that pump-fakes as a slow elegy for a love lost before speeding up and shifting to snarling satisfaction over their end. Except few in the space at the time who made it looked like Dobson, and almost instantly, she was positioned as a sort of representative for young, angry Black girls in the genre. The Toronto singer-songwriter possessed all the pop-punk/punk-rock stylings and angst of the era when her self-titled debut album landed in 2003 - when punk rock’s popularity had spread so far globally that there was increasing demand for more voices that sounded like hers. The world first met Fefe Dobson when she was 18 years old. ![]() Photo: Mathew Guido for Spoke Entertainment Inc.
