TayDuaStan Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 L-worded. This version doesn’t have a new 2nd verse or bridge, just instrumental over those parts.
better than revenge Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 I don't get why people hate this song, it's so positive and fun 8 1 6
GabeInPolaroids Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 (edited) I mean, anyone could've edit this... but then again, I don't think she recorded this as a solo track, since Brandon has songwriting credits. Edited August 25, 2023 by GabeInPolaroids
Nashe Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 Her choosing this as a lead single after Reputation or even putting it out into the world as a non-soundtrack song will never cease to baffle me. 4

I mean anyone could but it wouldn’t sound this good without an official instrumental or stems (which were never released officially or l-worded) so I think it’s the demo before she chose Brendon as the feature.

I always laugh at the transition in Miss Americana where she is sad rep got no Grammy noms and states she will release a better album and it cuts to her recording Me! 14

Fastlane Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 I still think it was a soundtrack for some child-pets cartoon.

Buffy Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 This song should’ve stayed locked in her imagination. Nobody would ever be caught serenading this to anyone in real life. This is assassination of your love/crush life.
gatito Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 releasing this song as a lead single could’ve been career killing for any other pop girl

She was too big and established to downright kill her career in 2019, but in 2019, she was not the force she is today. Like, still bigger than every other popstar comparatively, but the cracks were showing a little more in 2019 than ever before imo. Lover was her first album since Fearless to not open with over 1M in sales and both ME! & YNTCD performed noticeably worse than her leads from other eras. I think starting Lover off w/ ME! really briefly made people a little more judgmental about the album. That's why it's so interesting the album is slaying 4 years later & becoming one of her biggest eras ever. Seems like once other songs started to get people's attention like CS & the title track, they listened to the whole rest of the album & liked it. She obviously turned her perception around fully w/ Folklore, Evermore & Midnights, which made people re-visit her entire discography in more volume again too. 1

It's clear she wanted a big contrast from reputation both in sound and image but ig she went a little bit off board with it 1

I think if she had kept the song as slow and less glittery as this demo it would be a bit better. too bad she didn't record this solo btw Edited August 25, 2023 by GabeInPolaroids

Tusk Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 I’m surprised a demo version of this hasn’t appeared when she wrote it when she was 7.
