brooklyndaddy Posted June 1, 2023 Posted June 1, 2023 I just don’t get it DF was an okay album that could have been pretty good if the tracklist didn’t include that batch of 3 sonically different songs (I’m To Blame, Kick In The Head, c&c). She literally could have included the deluxe tracks initially, had a cohesive album and then released the other 3 as bonuses (which makes more sense because they sound nothing like the album)

Club classic Posted June 1, 2023 Posted June 1, 2023 I just can't stress how this and Padam Padam are songs of the summer

It has some amazing standouts like Grapefruit and Pineapple Slice but the lows are really low She’s doing her job by keeping gays engaged. Hopefully she’ll go back to taking some risks in the future
DevinWylde Posted June 1, 2023 Posted June 1, 2023 I will not stand for Tove slander. Dirt Femme isn't as good as LW/BL but I think it's maybe her most sonically cohesive project to date, closely followed by Sunshine Kitty surprisingly

All songs just flow perfectly on that record 1
pink lightning Posted June 2, 2023 Posted June 2, 2023 Spectacular bop! This and Miracle really satisfying my needs of europop songs this year, need more of those stat
SweetTalker Posted June 2, 2023 Posted June 2, 2023 (edited) LW is her most cohesive, her most ambitious, her most innovative, best body of work by like a thousand miles. I still think that even tho Cool Girl is pop perfection, it was a weird lead single and too much for the GP I never see praise for Vibes, but imo that would’ve been THEE perfect bridge between QOTC and Lady Wood, and i think that sonically, Vibes fit better in 2016. Vibes -> Cool Girl -> True Disaster -> Don’t Talk About It would’ve been the perfect single run. anyway i’m high. I read the comment about Dirt Femme being her most cohesive and I had to laugh. LW > DF > BL = SK > QOTC in therms of cohesiveness. Edited June 2, 2023 by SweetTalker
fountain Posted June 2, 2023 Posted June 2, 2023 Lady Wood is her best by far, masterpiece tbh I think I love this song specifically because it reminds me of LW era kinda, not tonally but in terms of the sound somewhat. They feel like opposites in that LW is like the sound of the club on the worst night of your life, whereas this song is like the best night

Burqa Posted June 2, 2023 Posted June 2, 2023 my problem with dirt femme is that the main sound of the album is songs like NODFL, Suburbia, AW, PS, Grapefruit... and it's cute for a couple songs but it's just mid to have a whole album like that imo when you have songs like Call On Me and How Long in it... specially now that the 2 deluxe tracks are better than 70% of the standard. and yes cute and cruel needs to be deleted
gloamingtheplain Posted June 2, 2023 Posted June 2, 2023 I do agree that Lady Wood is her boldest album, but some of the taste in this thread C&C and True Romance don’t fit the album, I agree. But the rest of the songs are all 8-9/10. People saying the album is mid or has too many lows…huh? I think based on what I’ve heard now this is how I would have had the track list: 1. How Long 2. I like U 3. No One Dies From Love 4. 2 Die 4 5. Suburbia 6. Grapefruit 7. Call on Me 8. Pineapple Slice 9. Attention ***** 10. Borderline 11. Kick in the Head 12. I’m To Blame BONUS: 13. True Romance 14. Cute & Cruel

You mean the 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 punch of the whole album back to back. Probably my favorite pop album of all time I fear

gloamingtheplain Posted June 2, 2023 Posted June 2, 2023 5 hours ago, dangerousalex said: True Romance is a wayyy better closer than I'm to Barf imo Nah I’m To Blame is amazing. And it suits the narrative of How Long and No One Dies From Love but also Kick In the Head where she talks about taking responsibility for herself. So it all ties together nicely. True Romance is cute but it doesn’t really work with the rest of the songs and just feels off. Same with Passion and Pain from Sunshine Kitty. Great ballads but don’t work amongst the upbeat songs. 1
Jay L Posted June 3, 2023 Posted June 3, 2023 hmm this is cute I guess but I probably won't play this much. She has so many way better songs. This one feels pretty mid
