On The Bound Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 crazy this is produced by the same person who did “hey you got drugs” by tove it’s a bop tho, 2/2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyMetalAura Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 This is fun! Not her best but it bops. Question for people who follow CRJ: did people enjoy Dedicated or were they generally disappointed? I don’t remember it making much noise but I know Emotion is a classic in gay culture, so I would expect Dedicated to have been more discussed. I haven’t gotten around to listening to it, just Party for One, but I really enjoyed that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Blue_Shirt Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Imagine releasing a masterpiece Western Wind and then this.... basic song as a second single I blame the gays who whining that she's not releasing a dance-pop song for this by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristen Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Very cute, but needed some retooling in terms of structure. I so wish she repeated the “Boys around the world” chorus section after every time the guys sing their little “I’ve got a ___” breakdown (especially before the second verse). When it comes in again after the quasi-bridge it sounds so euphoric, but even there we needed Carly’s part at least two more times for a truly perfect ending.

I mean this should honestly have been left on the cutting room floor and not near a track list let alone given pre-single or single status. THIS Can't say I'm surprised seeing some gays who stuck in Emotion era loving this song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youreyesgocold Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Hmm… I liked it through the first half of the chorus but from the first second a man started talking it became kind of awful, and then more men started joining in on the bridge and it got worse. I feel like if it was just Carly being sarcastic and petty it would be way better. The chorus melody is actually fun and I like the concept, the men are just too much. Maybe it will grow on me who knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryoncé Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 (edited) this sounds like a spoof SNL song centered around a bad segment about a cannibal who lures girls to his beach house to "harvest their organs" its baffling that the same girl who made so many classics on EMOTION also made this massive dud Edited August 5, 2022 by ryoncé Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryoncé Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 the end of the chorus (i got a beach house in malibu...im probably gonna hurt your feelings) doesn't rhythmically work at all -- its very off putting this might be the worst song ive heard in 2022 so far, its giving Rebecca Black in her Friday era Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieceByPiece_KC Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I can't really wrap my head around the song. I feel like it will be a grower? Beach House & Western Wind are sooooooo different. What is this album going to sound like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pavi Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Loving this! Very fun I get why the boys do the chorus, but I wish she would've done it herself, cause it feels like she's absent too much in a song that's already short Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyPony87 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 This is so cute and cheeky. I really, really like it. She should have led with this instead of Breaking Wind, which was kinda transient and forgettable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t gotten around to listening to it, just Party for One, but I really enjoyed that one. I think the reception of Dedicated was pretty good, though I do seem to recall some people expecting another Emotion being disappointed a bit (which is why they can't seem to shut up about Disco Sweat). To me personally Dedicated is by far her best album, its sound is unique and there is not a single track I hate. Emotion is overrated as **** in her discography.
