Hug Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Chained to the Rhythm is okay. I don't like it as much as Rise, but then again, it's probably my...3rd or 4th favorite single of hers. ET > Wide Awake > Rise or Firework > Rise or Firework Depends on what I feel about it at the time As for where I would place CTTR... Rise or Firework > Dark Horse > Teenage Dream > CTTR > others in their own special order and LFN is last
SaintWest Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Is nobody going to talk about the fact that CTTR has the same intro as Style.
Hug Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Also, I am going to need people to stop dragging it for being fauxlitical. I guess some people can't handle social commentary when it's not blatant and using hot buzzwords. Katy should've just made the bridge slam poetry about Donald Trump, maybe people wouldn't be so eager to call it generic pop.
Jackson Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 If it sounded anything like Style I would have unstanned already
Hug Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Taylor copied Lana so it's not like she's the queen of originality, either.
SaintWest Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Nothing like making non-party, political song by releasing a party song.

I think the song being upbeat is actually very fitting, because the song talks about ignoring the issues of the world and living in your own bubble. The chorus is tongue-in-cheek and not meant to be taken like a command like many dance songs circa 2010.
Hug Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 I have no idea why I am so adamant on defending this song when it's very middling to me. I do admit I like it more with each listen, though. Might end up on my year end.

Jackson Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Well it's definitely more political than Formation or Born This Way, that's for sure!

Jackson Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 BTW the alt right is currently having a meltdown over the song on twitter so don't act like its non-partisan

Yeah, and I'm not denying the legitimacy of it, but people are acting like it's a political statement when it's just not. Saying "don't live in a bubble or ignore what's going on around you" could mean a lot of different things to different people, right? It's not targeting any direct issue at all, so I don't really get the praise over the political aspect of it. I think it's a cute song, some of the lyrics are cringey, and it reminds me of Style and This Is How We Do, but it's cute.

Hug Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 I just want to appreciate the sudden tone shift when she says "and party on" in the pre chorus. The way it sounds so bleak is effective in showcasing the song's message. EDIT: The timing of the song has a lot to do with it being "political". A lot of people weren't involved in the political discussion of the 2016 election, and basically ignored it. This song could be considered a subtweet for everyone who "sat it out".
