ATRL Moderator supaspaz Posted July 21, 2022 Author ATRL Moderator Posted July 21, 2022 LOVE IS A GAME Average score: 6.70 High score: 10 (@Taemira) Low score: 2 (@madonnas) Sweeping, sentimental, shamelessly indulgent at nearly seven minutes, the final track from the standard edition of 30 sends the album off on a gloriously retro wall of sound as Adele bemoans that “Love Is a Game” for fools before finally conceding that she’ll “do it all again/I love it now like I loved it then.” She told interviewers that she imagined it as the song that should have soundtracked the end of Breakfast at Tiffany’s, which was playing in the studio when she recorded it. Best bit: the echoing background vocals of the second verse (and beyond) give Adele her own doo-wop girl group ATRL says...: “Now this is done well,” @BnPac stated.

ATRL Moderator supaspaz Posted July 21, 2022 Author ATRL Moderator Posted July 21, 2022 I just want to state for the record that 30 is a good album and you all did it wrong!
ATRL Moderator Ace Reject Posted July 21, 2022 ATRL Moderator Posted July 21, 2022 Mama this is a massacre! Not Adele becoming the HAIM of this rate. The Jason Isbell. The Car Seat Headrest!
ATRL Moderator supaspaz Posted July 21, 2022 Author ATRL Moderator Posted July 21, 2022 Last one for tonight is another major single. There will be several of those coming up in the next update as well.

ATRL Moderator supaspaz Posted July 21, 2022 Author ATRL Moderator Posted July 21, 2022 LOST CAUSE Average score: 6.70 High score: 10 (@supaspaz, @ultraviolence.xx) Low score: 2 (@Insanity) An absolutely brutal diss track for an ex. Over a simpering, jazz-inflected beat, Billie Eilish, an audible smirk in her voice, coolly drags him as deluded, inconsiderate, simple – a straight-up loser with no job. (Based on the 22 seconds of silent black at the end of the music video, fans speculate that she’s singing about rapper 7: AMP, whom she dated when she was 16 and he was 22.) Released as the fourth single from Happier Than Ever, “Lost Cause” debuted and peaked at #27 on the Billboard Hot 100, making more of a splash for the music video, where Billie got sexy with a group of girlfriends at a slumber party, causing a minor controversy. Best bit: “I used to think you were shy/But maybe you just had nothing on your mind” ATRL says...: @madonnas thought it was “good song,” comparing it to “Punch at the Wedding” by Radiohead. @Ewan Chaos cackled at “people crying that this song was ‘offensive to people who don’t have jobs’ klnfkldhflkhdflhd.” @Ace Reject suggested that “this needs to be a tad faster.”

ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted July 21, 2022 ATRL Moderator Posted July 21, 2022 I’m honestly quite shocked that this is out before NDA which got a lot of backlash from fans. I mean I like both, and I do think NDA is better but still.

Into The Void Posted July 21, 2022 Posted July 21, 2022 50 minutes ago, supaspaz said: MALE FANTASY Average score: 6.43 High score: 10 (@ultraviolence.xx, @Born to Run) Low score: 1 (@Insanity, @creativity.) The final track on Happier Than Ever is a minimalist curio, opening with a dissection of the inherent flaws of *****graphy before shifting into a more conventional ballad about the stasis of heartbreak. Ultimately ending the album on a hopeful note (“I know I should, but I could never hate you”), its wispy acoustic aura makes for a gorgeous listen, even if the message doesn’t entirely hold together. “Male Fantasy” was released as the seventh single of the era, but made minimal impact, peaking at #2 on the bubbling under chart. Best bit: the exquisite falsetto of “‘Cause I loved you then and I love you now” ATRL says...: “Not really needed musically, but I appreciate the message of the song,” @madonnas said. 36 minutes ago, supaspaz said: GOLDWING Average score: 6.68 High score: 9 (@Ewan Chaos, @Ace Reject, @Born to Run) Low score: 2 (@Insanity) With its ominous drum machine loop, this is one of the Happier Than Ever tracks that most feels like it could have appeared on Billie Eilish’s first album. But its preoccupations are firmly of her sophomore era: “Goldwing” evokes the imagery of an angel for a metaphor about her protectiveness toward innocent young women in the music industry. The intro is a choral hymn, based on an ancient Hindu poem, that Billie sang in choir as a kid. Best bit: “Gonna claim you like a souvenir/Just to sell you in a year” ATRL says...: “That change halfway through,” @Ewan Chaos marveled. “WHEW.” 14 minutes ago, supaspaz said: LOST CAUSE Average score: 6.70 High score: 10 (@supaspaz, @ultraviolence.xx) Low score: 2 (@Insanity) An absolutely brutal diss track for an ex.
