Am I crazy or is Bad Thing Twice sampling Robyn’s Ever Again? 
 

after a few listens I think Bad Thing Twice might be my favorite track

Also her reworking fantastic bops into less good tracks needs to stop... Bends and Window, I'm talking to you.

I could easily see Kylie Minogue recording Shooting Star, we needa a remix

Just saw that Carly follows Kylie on IG, and I don't think she did that before 2022 :gaycat1:

What were they thinking in regards to the singles? ww & bh are by far the weakest on the album

Beach House was worth it just for that iconic MV :jonnycat: It's my most watched video of the year, just so good.

I guess this is one of those album with such a range of sounds that she must've wanted to show that in the singles rather than just releasing the gay bops

Posted

boy, you got a reputation.

Shooting Star is that girl. 

 

Some of the sings sound a bit slight and side B'd but I think it will be a grower 

 

Also hate her for Far Away/Keep Away/Stay Away/Felt This Way

Posted

I am honestly so floored by this album, I have no words. This will be an autumn staple.

"Never Get To Hold You" walked so "No Thinking Over The Weekend" and "Keep Away" could run. Achingly perfect.

WW (Her weakest single outside of Too Much)

I should warn and threadban you for trolling because there's no way you're saying this in good faith :deadbanana4:

 

very good! clearly a 16 track album that her label forced her to pretend wasn't, especially considering the bonus tracks exist on every(?) physical and digital version

Far Away is so interesting. 

Posted

what's the target exclusive track?

Posted

There isn’t a single skip on this, it’s absolutely marvelous. Anxious and Bad Thing Twice are total gems. 
 

I am gonna be streaming hard on October 21st ?

Shame that it leaked. Will be listening soon :gaycat5:

This ablum drastically elevates from 'Bends' onwards. The dreamy, luxurious atmospherics :heart2: The first half with all the sub-3 min sings is such B-side material. 

 

"Keep Away" is actually too much :heart:

Production is amazing, but there’s something in the melodies that sounds very monotonous to me, like they are not catchy enough.

 

If the whole album was in the vibe of Talking To Yourself it would ve AOTY for me. However, I will stream on the 21st once Midnights have left me breathe.

 

Songs I liked the most

 

Surrender My Heart

Talking To Yourself

Beach House

Bad Thing Twice

Shooting Star

Go Find Yourself or Whatever

The Loneliest Time

On Sideways and so far it sounds like her most spiritual album. Her most carefree, peaceful sounding album. I’m not sure how I feel about it yet. SMH is euphoric, but Joshua Tree was completely useless. TTY is a bop, but Far Away was completely forgettable. Sideways seems cute so far, but idk. This seems like it might be her Lover/Sweetener, in that it’s a very mixed bag. Has some of her best songs, but then some complete oddballs are thrown in that sound like B-sides.

Ok and see, another thing with this album is she throws in some elements that are so off-putting and jarring. It happened in Beach House, the whole chorus of Joshua Tree was annoying to me, and now with So Nice, like it’s a cute bop, but whoever is doing those “la la la la la”s is throwing off the groove for me :noparty:

Mess not it leaking :deadbanana2: 

Posted

I’m not seeing enough love for Joshua Tree. Wish it was longer. That outro is perfection. “I’m feeling dramatic, i like the moon and the magic of this” :jamming: 

Posted

Title track grew on me so much. It’s a silly song, but it’s so dreamy and indulgent. I absolutely love it.

Posted

This ended up being so much better than I was anticipating but for what reason is Anxious considered a bonus track? 

Anyway this stomped on Dedicated.
