Remember when HAIM got dragged during This Was 2020? That was nasty business.

LAX

 

Average score: 5.59

High score: (@a_d_22, @CBC)

Low score: 1 (@madonnas, @creativity.)

 

 

The least developed of the new songs on the Motomami+ rerelease, this sketch about the perils of Rosalía’s growing international fame – you can hear her putting pen to paper on the a cappella first section – runs only 90 seconds. As she dodges paparazzi in a Ferrari and parties through jetlag, “LAX” doesn’t have much fresh insight to offer on what is by now a well-worn trope in pop music: feeling trapped by the spotlight.

 

Best bit: “Alguien nuevo quiere algo de mí/Muchos más cuchillos en el VIP”

"All That Ever Mattered" was a bop then. It's a bop now. It will be a bop forever!

I mean it's another skit type song... I'm fine with it leaving but nothing else from Motomami especially the standard can leave for 40 spots ok!

Sweet Nothing should have left before Question...?

Huuuuge grower, I remember lashing it back then but it became one of my favorite albums of 2020 in the end :skull:

 

Motomami+ tracks are just weaker versions of the songs on the album so… whatever I guess. Question is a little overhated but the lyrics make no sense

The lyrics to Question…? just baffle me, like what is this song even describing

 

LAX is cute but needed some more development

AGUACERO

 

Average score: 5.67

High score: 10 (@Taemira, @V3$$3L.)

Low score: 1 (@MP2K, @jacklovesyou1, @Norte)

 

 

Bad Bunny is horny, seriously horny, fucking-at-the-stoplights horny, for this girl with a booty sculpted by God and gushing orgasms. (Sorry, I just report the facts!) Horny enough, actually, that he fears he may be falling in love. So Benito tries to diffuse his feelings with humor on “Aguacero,” protecting his heart with jokes about taking other lovers and pretending to be distant cousins over a lo-fi groove.

 

Best bit: “La baby estudió psicología/Y conmigo hizo el doctorado, me tienes desquiciado”

It should have been G3 N15 or Motomami but ok, LAX is way too boring

Worst song on UVST, it's the only filler on the album

It's genuinely lovely! Easy, breezy, beautiful Taylorgirl.

ME FUI DE VACACIONES

 

Average score: 5.68

High score: (@Ace Reject)

Low score: 1 (@MP2K, @jacklovesyou1)

 

 

It’s all good times and steel drum vibes on this carefree cut from Un Verano Sin Ti, a celebration of rest and relaxation on which Bad Bunny seems to be having a lot more fun than the voters did. The chorus of “Me Fui de Vacaciones” became a TikTok trend when Bad Bunny teased it on the app before the album’s release.

 

Best bit: “No me hablen del trabajo, no me hablen de escuela/Que ya subí el ancla y abrí las velas”

 

ATRL says…: “This should be at the beginning,” @madonnas noted. “I’m getting fatigued and can’t enjoy properly.”
