I have never in my life teared up to music just because it was that good before. This album fits right where my heart should be.

Go Find Yourself or Whatever :cries:

 

Ms. Jepsen did NOT have to go this hard. This album is a step up from Dedicated

When they start posting Bad Things Twice x Fleetwood Mac Dreams mashups on twitter just know I thought of it first

Finally done. This album could literally just be Surrender My Heart, Talking To Yourself, Bends, Bad Thing Twice, and Keep Away and it would still have been a life changing experience. I have no words that can do it justice.

The Pitchfork reviewer has clearly never listened to Tug of War. This is not Carly 'reinventing herself' to try to stay interesting. It's a return to form. A perfectly balanced blend of the folk-singing Carly I fell in love with 15 years ago when she was on Canadian Idol, to the critically acclaimed indie-pop goddess people outside of Canada know and love her for.

The way things go downhill after Joshua Tree...only Bends, Sideways and Western Wind are the very good songs there. And then it rebounds at Go Find Yourself till the last song, Keep Away. I think the large chunk of the middle of the album should be removed and replaced with the bonus tracks only because they are not it. Overall, very uneven, very high highs and low lows.

I think I like this better than Dedicated

 

Bad Thing Twice is my favorite (even though it's quite derivative from Smile Monalisa and Windows :skull:), Sideways, Shooting Star, Go find yourself, and the bonus tracks are again better than several main tracks

 

she really did that again and deserves her flower for keep making excellent pop music for so long :jonny5:

Listening now, as much as I like some songs on Midnight. I need my bops and I'm ready for Carly to delivery :jonny5:

Bends is literally a career best - keep listening to it, its magic will win you over!
