album Troye Sivan - 'Something to Give Each Other'

[ImpressMeMuch]

I adore this album after more time with it, almost no skips

[zasderfght]

After more listens, I actually think this is Troye's weakest album. 

 

Rush is a fantastic single. Got Me Started is fun but it's also not as good as Rush. The rest of the songs? They're too slow to truly be bops and they're not meaty enough to truly be ballads like "Animal" from Bloom or "Heaven" from Blue Neighbourhood. 

 

I honestly have not revisited any deep cut from this album outside of listening to the album from start to finish. 

 

I find it puzzling in a particular interview, he talked about this album not being another sad-girl breakup album (or just a sad-girl album), but you have songs like One of Your Girls; Can't Go Baby, Baby; Still Got It; and How to Stay with You. And then the usual pining-over-a-guy tracks like In My Room, Silly, and Honey. 

 

This just isn't an album that has a whole lot on its mind. You can talk about unrequited love and make it interesting. You can talk about wanting a straight man (as a gay male) and make it interesting. Troye is 2 years younger than I am and yet I have outgrown the "I-like-the-straight-guy" or "I-like-guys-who-don't-like-me-back" or "I-miss-a-past-lover" phases. 

 

I hope as Troye lives and experiences the world more, he writes about something a bit more novel and unique the fourth time around.

I hope slayyyter goes on tour with him

How to Stay With You is a late game fave for me 

[sunbathinganimal]

finally listened to this, I like it but not as much as I thought I would

[AcidPrince]

One of your girls is just pop perfection. 

[campelo]

This album is so Carly Rae Jepsen coded, she could have called her out for the vault tracks 

[as926]

Loving this more and more with every listen. Some of these lyrics are insanely heartbreaking. 

[Almodusa]

This is my CHARLIE of 2023 (both coincidentally released in October of their respective year)  

[roggenpierre]

One Of Your Girls is #11 on this week's UK charts. Pretty good for him I would say!

Ive had this album playing everyday since its release. I was not expecting to get into Troye Sivan as much as I did. He really slayed this era. 

 

[WildAmerican]

wait i kinda get Can't Go Back Baby now omg 

 

now the only one here I don't like is Still Don't Got it 

[Lana Banana]

The only skip for me is Can’t Go Back, Baby

[Power love]

[Slate]

Honey top 3

[Lord Gaga]

How to stay with you finally grew on me now it's just in my room that needs to grow on me.

[Marry The Gods]

I really liked it. Nothing innovating but it’s cute digestible pop music with nice melodies. My favorite is the last track.

I wonder he'll get his first Grammy nomination with Rush video. With its viraility and quality I'd say it's on par with Glad He's Gone, Cellophane and Houdini etc

The way I was right  I mean he even got the nomination for the song itself but still  

[liammmmacbtw]

just posted a remix i made for one of your girls, check it out if you're curious <3
