Hello Hello is a whole ass bop and I’m convinced that if a MPG released it, it would’ve been a hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve listened a few times and I think I agree with Barbara still being her best work. This one is a close second, definitely the campiest (she wrote most of the songs from a drag queen’s perspective for the first time). The singles are the best songs from the albums though, and in the exact order she released them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like () the album but i find the campiness a bit overbearing, her iconic and beautiful ballads were definitely missed! i hope next she goes full folk and gives us an album full of Gold, I Do Like You, I Don't Have a Broken Heart, I Know You All Over Again and This Town, she's an excellent songwriter tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely thought the albums being split between two discs was indicative of the genre though. I imagined The Blonde to be Pop leaning while The Pink more Folk/Country. I was actually a little disappointed that This Town and Vacation are basically the only stripped back, guitar lead songs as they're the ones where her voice and songwriting truly shine (in fact I'm a big fan of all the songs mentioned in your post). A Pop album was long overdue at this point and she gave us actual bops, so I'm not mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polgg48 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 (edited) fortunately saved album on my phone last night. not feeling the big difference between double side as first 5 songs in B side are continuous from A side, more country element but its remain power pop as first side. if thats what she intended, then id get i shoud love positive jams rather than last two slow country because she actually seems wanted album to be all uptempo. my fav are Goner and C'Mon Loretta for A side, Wake Up and Stay the Night for B side. put Weezer to shame all with only this project Edited June 25, 2022 by Polgg48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they messed some things up when they uploaded the album on YouTube on April 29 (original release date) and now they need some time to fix it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really good, it helped me understand more what's the thought process about her songwriting and her persona in general. Apparently the only difference between the two albums is the POV of who's singing/telling the story, with Blonde being from the side of Trixie and Pink from the side of Brian, not the sound/genre. I also didn't know anything about this and it caught me off guard. Funny you mentioned Weezer because she was inspired by them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
