GlamSlam Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 I was a little bit disappointed with this album after the brilliance of Plastic Hearts, but It's now grown on me in a big way. Violet Chemistry, Rose Colored Lenses, River, Island, Jaded, Handstand (and of course) Flowers are fabulous. I'll need more time with the others.
naomi24 Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 7. Violet chemistry another hit.. this needs to be the next single
Bimbo Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 Yeah this is definitely a downgrade from PH, sucks because I thought she had finally found herself and a coherent artistic direction, which this album lacks.
naomi24 Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 8. Muddy feet : this is a rock song! I want her to sing it live with a band .. yes Miley we don't like people with their shoes all over our floors
Shazbaz13 Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 Waited to give this my full attention on first listen. Loving it! It's definitely much more chilled than I expected and especially in comparison to Plastic Hearts. Miley is truly a queen. Always serving something different and delivering.
naomi24 Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 9. Wildcard - Probably the song I like the least so far. I won't mind it as background music though. Sounds a bit filler-y.
naomi24 Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 10. Island - another chill bop- I am a bit confused by the arrangement of AM and PM songs... Is this a PM song? But it sounds like a song with day-like vibes
naomi24 Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 Wonder woman- oh this is an album ender. It's no angels like you but she is a singer and her ballads are always nice.
Antisocialites Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 what's with the constant lack of cohesion, vision, and identity with every single release? the middle section (from Handstand to Muddy Feet) is simply horrid and mastered very badly. Jaded and Island are probably my only favorites. such a wasted potential since she's a very great performer.
naomi24 Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 Overall on first listen I think the first 70% of the album is my fav part. Sounds like the album will be on repeat for me in the coming days

I’m not sure why we’re dragging Chromatica into this. We’re currently talking about Endless Summer Vacation my dear. Get with the times
Poete Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 Rose colored lenses is her best song she ever made.

shark_heather Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 Great album I would remove Flowers Demo and maybe add another song but the rest is perfect . No skips , no fillers I hope she smashes and i hope we get a tour announcement soon

Jude Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 My review after my second listen: Flowers - 10/10 - didn't like this at first but I bopped so hard at the end. Excellent lead. Jaded - 10/10 - It sounds anthemic. Excellent production, great vocals, memorable melodies and lyrics and that bridge was so good. Rose Colored Lens - 10/10 - Is this the tone down version of We Can't Stop? Or WCS with summer vibe? Anyway, I was having euphoria while listening to this track. And that production at the last chorus, insane. Thousand Miles - 8/10 - Nice instrumental at the intro, reminds of deja vu by Olivia Rodrigo. Verses are great. The chorus, however, is a bit of a let down but I enjoyed the last one. You - 10/10 - Lyrics made me teary. Reminds me of a beautiful moment in my life. Love the mix of country, rock, electronic and gospel here. This also reminds me of Brown Eyes by Lady Gaga. Both are great ballads! Handstand 10/10 - This is Miley's Alien Superstar. I feel like flying in outer space while listening to this. That production at the interlude was insane, whew. An experimental bop! River - 9/10 A banger on first listen but idk, it aged on my second listen? It sounds like a The Fame track tbh. I'm afraid this track will age like milk immediately but nonetheless I bopped. Violet Chemistry - 10/10 - another banger and I'm glad they put this after River. This one is the better dance track of the album. Wish this was the second single instead. The production, melody and her vocals delivery are infectious. Muddy Feet - 7/10 - I find the transition from first chorus to the second verse very anti-climactic. Not really a fan of pop-rock. I guess my favorite part is Sia's humming at the end (I thought that was Rihanna at first lol) Wildcard - 8/10 - Her voice is too rockish in the chorus, not a fan, but it's full of emotion and I felt that. Melodies are okay. Love the story telling here, however. Island - 10/10 - Another euphoric track. Memorable melodies and lyrics. Love the tropical vibe. Wonder Woman - 10/10 - Great ballad. Loved her vocals here a lot. One thing that bothers me is the melody, it sounds exactly the same song I heard before that I can't point out. Did she sample a song here? The pre-chorus sounds the same to Ed Sheeran's Visiting Hours as well. Regardless, it's sublime. Miley really has one of the best ballads out there. *********** Average rating: 9.4
