Dua Lipa - "Houdini"


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am so confused by the lukewarm reactions. This is hitting harder for me on first listen than any of her other singles and it’s totally gonna grow on me even more because it has a more organic and high brow sound than anything she’s done before

The video is a grower, watching the clips on social media slaps me harder and make me rewatch the video over and over again. :WAP:
It feels like she made lead single the "Physical" of this era, which is A M A Z I N G

I do not want to hear MV slander. It is amazing. The cinematography is stunning.

Oh GAG she actually confirmed to iheart that there is a psychedelic through line in the rest of the album and that they are really prevalent :jonny5:

This is gonna be her magnum opus, I can feel it. She’s gonna top FN and deliver true artistic perfection :WAP:

The song slays and the music video does too. IDK why f*words always want a “storyline”. She is not Katy Perry, she is not going to have a tacky story line, did yal expect her to jump into a box and disappear?! :thing:

I love the video like it is.

But adressing this topic...

 

I would like at least one video with some story. It does help people to connect with her and indirectly call off the "no personality" allegations. That's mostly why I want her team to see it. I love aestethics, but sometimes its good to put in something more

oh btw I see why some monsters said the production reminds them of Artpop :gaycat3:


Yep, the song has a little electronic beat similar to Donatella, Swain, MJH.

The only thing that worries me is that it sound a lot like Take my breath and Sacrifice and those were big flops 

I like this a lot more but it's worrisome

As usual with her I'm almost 100% there now w/ this.

 

Atp, still wishing there that scratchy guitar or whatever at the end wasn't there. Don't get what it added. Really don't like that as the outro lol. Better/smoother if it faded out the way it basically started (with that Thrillers-esque beat).

again, I think Dawn FM would have been more successful if The Weeknd had known how to push the era.

Save Your Tears was still big when he released TMB, then he appeared in collaborations almost every 2 weeks that left him overexposed and finally... he didn't promote the actual singles. :chick3:

This is not the case for DL3

When she sinks into the huge club crowd and everyone suddenly vanishes leaving her on her own on the floor :jonny5:

I actually love the video, it’s the first time she’s ever looked comfortable in front of the camera

btw, do we think these 6hrs will hurt Spotify's performance? :chick2: the song is doing good in youtube

Everything is very “tight” in sound wise, very well produced for that part but the song itself is ok
