Tove Lo - "Borderline"


Recommended Posts

Basically the intro sounds very FN, but the rest is *very* Tove Lo. I feel like Dua would have nailed the verse and pre-chorus but the actual chorus Tove nails in her signature style and I feel like Dua wouldn’t have even it the same emotional pay off and it would have sounded a bit flat. 

Hmm I still don't feel it in the intro, this song is very Blue Lips to me. Regardless it's good!

Honestly I would be here for them to do an EP. Or Tove do do a remix of Infatuation from his album. 

i would KILL for that, literally

Am I the only one that doesn't hear any of Dua's influence or style in this song? This is very much a Tove Lo single, I haven't heard Dua's demo but it actually kinda makes sense why it didn't end up on FN to me, not that it's bad b/c I love Tove.

I think you hear more of Dua’s influence if you compare it with “Prisoner”. I think you can hear these two songs likely came out of a similar writing session.

 

Tove really made it her own though. Having The Struts produce it also helps to make it feel like her.

WOW this is so good. Not me just finding out about this.

 

A clip of Dua's recently made its way online, I also cannot wait for the inevitable leak of her version :jonny4:

That was ok, she's had better performances but Borderline is the best she's released in years, I'm still obsessed with it

The way this is kind of song of the year and already has more plays than most other Dirt Femme tracks on my Last.fm, wheeew :jonny:

Idk how y'all don't hear the Dua influence on this. The whole "tonight for the rest of my life" sounds IDENTICAL to her, or something she would do

 

Yes deluxe when, Toovuh... :oh:

Idk, I love Tove but I’m not here for this sound. She needs to give us another QOTC, LW, or BL. I haven’t been feeling these last 2 eras much. No One Dies From Love is still a smash tho…tove lo flash GIF by mtv

Call On Me was a major slay. I just haven’t been a fan of these overall last two projects. Sunshine Kitty was especially bad. Pineapple Slice is ok. It kind of burnt out fast for me. I want more of the old Tove 😭😭

trust me i get it. her last two projects have been more growers than instant for me but that's never a bad thing. as long as the material is good that's all that matters. wish that her cedric cervais collab came out years back would've been another cute hit for her

addicted to it

We do - and it's because the track is co-written by Dua!
