ATRL Moderator feelslikeadream Posted August 9, 2022 ATRL Moderator Share Posted August 9, 2022 Shatter is the best song of 2022. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cefh Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 That's Where I Am is one of my favorite 2022 songs, It gives me early Dido vibes and I'm 100% here for it IMO this album is better than her previous one. Sad it missed top 10 in US/Canada/Australia, but at least she got her first top 10 in UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotunda Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 HIIAPL > Notes > Surrender WW and TWIA the clear standouts Shatter is #3 but the vocals require some getting used to I’ve Got A Friend is the only real skip, but there’s a handful of tracks that are just okay.

Rotunda Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 (edited) Also Anywhere With You is cute - kinda the more bombastic version of this track Edited August 10, 2022 by Rotunda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youreyesgocold Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I basically haven’t listened to any of the album other than WW which I love. Every time I start another song I zone out after 30 seconds. Maybe they just can’t capture my interest, but I felt that way about HIAPL too with some songs. anyways… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

likefoxesdo Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I’m kinda surprised how polarizing this seems to be. In my opinion, it’s a very mature and organic follow-up to her debut And I’m glad she didn’t go down the rehash road despite how easy that would’ve been to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protocol Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I am living with this album more and more and it's like a trusting friend you can turn to for comfort. Such great songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

original_lifeline Posted September 2, 2022 Author Share Posted September 2, 2022 hate to say this, but it has aged quite poorly HIIAPL was much better & still sounds fresh even to this day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 yeah this album was a disappointment all around. Nothing to really hook you in outside of Want Want, which is a shame because I loved her debut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

normanikordeix Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 This album is much better than her debut!!! The last 3 tracks arent it for me but other than that im obsesseddd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonkbanisters Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 As someone who loves HIIAPL - I could see why people find it sorta basic. But Surrender just feels really different in a great way and I can see so much artistic progression with this album. Maggie sounds so free and confident on here and I love that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
original_lifeline Posted September 5, 2022 Author Share Posted September 5, 2022 (edited) the WORST color variant out of them all - and I still don't know where it even came from Edited September 5, 2022 by original_lifeline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The “spring green” sold mainly in North America (made in Canada) came out opaque like the mock-ups! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

original_lifeline Posted September 7, 2022 Author Share Posted September 7, 2022 (edited) finally got my vinyl - was kinda surprised because this particular Target copy has an orange strip on the back, which matches the indie exclusive orange color variant and not the Target one, but nevermind @VeniceBeachdo you like my new vinyl?
