Ghost Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Family Look What You've Done July 25th Oxygen Summer My Pleasure There Isn't Much September 8th Look In Your Eyes Ready To Love Wait For Me Another One Yes You Can Brighter Days Superhuman World Go Round May 6th
Fancyhoodlum Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Curious about the album. Although it seems she won't have the same level of success she had in the beginning ever again
AlexLockhart Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Can't believe there were no thread for this album before It's actually very enjoyable even though she went fully pop this time. Some songs were meh (well, she's experimenting), some songs were really great (There Isn't Much is one of her best imo). 'LLTA' still remains my favorite but I need some time to digest the new one as well, maybe it will grow on me a lot
Rafael Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 There Isn't Much should have smashed. It's such a great song!!
justin464 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 I was obsessed with Family for months when it came out, but nothing else on the album really stood out to me other than Ready to Love. I'll have to listen to it again

I've enjoyed some tracks but nothing remains "strong". The only ones I appreciate are: Family, Oxygen and There Isn't Much
The Next Day Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 I can't believe they went with Family and LWYD as first singles, they killed all my hype for the album. The 1-2-3 punch of Summer, My Pleasure and TIM was right there waiting Thanks to the the first two singles I had no expectations for this album and I was pleasently surprised. Family should've been the closer, it makes much more sense in that context. There are some of her best songs here, I love Summer and Yes You Can. Great pop with gospel tinges, that's what I love about Emeli. It's not as instantly catchy as Real Life or OVOE, but it's groser fir sure and a step forward for her artistry.
Theshigo Washidu Posted May 10, 2022 Posted May 10, 2022 This album is amazing . It should've been the follow-up to LLTA.
Ghost Posted May 10, 2022 Author Posted May 10, 2022 I was surprised by how good and fresh this album is it's full of amazing productions. I was a fan of Real Life but this feels like a return to the more eclectic and chill Emeli
sam.teas Posted May 10, 2022 Posted May 10, 2022 I'll try to "rediscover" it soon since the first time it didn't convince me
ATRL Moderator feelslikeadream Posted May 11, 2022 ATRL Moderator Posted May 11, 2022 Oh wow, I went in with kind of low expectations tbh (REAL LIFE never clicked for me) but I'm so impressed I've only listened twice but think I pretty much like almost every song.
TheWayWeWere Posted May 15, 2022 Posted May 15, 2022 this is low-key her best album I hate how she started to flop with better music than her debut
Ichinaru19 Posted May 15, 2022 Posted May 15, 2022 Okay I really need to sit down and listen to this, but Ready To Love

July 25th being a sweeping acoustic/orchestral interpretation is much appreciated. World Go Round, Ready to Love, Another One, Superhuman and Wait for Me are my other favourites. There Isn't Much should be huge. On 5/9/2022 at 3:48 PM, Rafael said: There Isn't Much should have smashed. It's such a great song!! Family is growing on me much more now.

Current personal favourites (in no particular order cause each song is unique in its own way): July 25th Look What You've Done (the orchestration and vocal delivery in this one are out of this world!) There Isn't Much (absolutely stunning career highlight! one of the best songs released so far this year) Oxygen Ready to Love Emeli is SUCH an underappreciated artist it's appalling. I put "artist" in italics cause many claim they are one when they're merely vocalists, unlike Miss Sandé. Btw, Real Life was a solid effort with some career highlights (read: "Real Life," "Free As a Bird").

Every album has career highlights. Real Life was underappreciated as well; Extraordinary Being, Sparrow, Love to Help, You Are Not Alone.

Joesuxx Posted May 19, 2022 Posted May 19, 2022 You know i'm just listening to this for the first time and i think i can live with her not being as successful as she was with OVOE if this is the result. This is some of her best music in years, she seems happy. She's got herself a new girlfriend, she came out and it's showing. "Summer" is gorgeous. She deserves more recognition but she seems ok without it.
