skwonderfactory Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I think "About Damn Time" is pretty solid and a damn solid lead single (do wish "Rumors" was on here, even as a bonus track), but "Special" is truly amazing. It's so sentimental yet Lizzo at the same time. I can't wait for the studio version and this album! I have a friend who is second cousins with her, I should ask him how our girl has been.

Diarrhoea Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I dragged Special when we first heard it but that performance really affected me? I had a truly horrible 2021 and I think I’ve mostly made it though and I feel like it was the right time for me to hear it and she sold the s*** out of it.

Protocol Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I'm still flabbergasted/annoyed they had such a good instrumental with "About Damn Time" and then wasted it with no hook. Where is the A&R? Where are the professional songwriters? The song has no hook!! It wants to be a Chic classic circa 1979 but those songs had hooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
