Bodyguard wouldn't be my pick. I i think Daughter lyrics paint the most evocative picture with just the right anount if ambiguity to question whats literal and what's metaphorical. It's nice to see shades of each other's greatness in both their works. That's a good point about Daughter, I can see how it's Taylor-esque. The reason why I mentioned Bodyguard is because some people thought that the backing vocal at 0:04 sounds like her voice and I think it could be her.
bowdown Posted April 6 Posted April 6 why is Just For Fun suddenly hitting 'Cause time heals everything I don't need anything Hallelujah I pray to her Here's to hoping I'll fall fast asleep tonight And I'll just need to get through this Born in the darkness, who brings the light? And I just, I need to get through this Or just get used to it 4

If I only want slow lyrical music I listen to the first half if I wanna get crunk I listen to the last half. I can see arguments for this topping Renaissance. She delivers in every metric from story telling, superior vocals, strong duets, emotion, UGH YES The smartest comment you have ever made. 1 1

nooniebao Posted April 6 Posted April 6 The background vocals on BODYGUARD are songwriter-producer Lowell? I thought we already knew this?
Doogle Posted April 6 Posted April 6 Post Malone sounds heavenly on LJ. I have been wearing my Levi's dungarees all weekend and the song is constantly in my head lmao

PrudenceHCharmed Posted April 7 Posted April 7 BODYGUARD, II MOST WANTED, LEVI'S JEAN, TYRANT & RIIVERDANCE (+JOLENE) all could be pushed as singles. Imagine having six top tens hits from this album. It is extremely important to have multiple hits in order for the album perform really well in a really long time. (REN is at 2M daily, imagine CC at 5M daily or more). And just look at Doja having multiple 1B streams songs from Planet Her. 5
MonsterNavy Posted April 7 Posted April 7 been listening to this album since its release and every listen there's a new discovery from a new clever lyric, melody, production etc truly the best album released in years

Very well. Those songs don't get challenged often so good to know they each have staunch defenders 1 1
Mariah4life Posted April 7 Posted April 7 Idk if this was obvious to everyone but notice the change up of words between the ending of American Requiem and Amen American Requiem Quote Goodbye to what has been A pretty house that we never settled in A funeral for fair-weather friends I am the one to cleanse me of my Father's sins American Requiem Them big ideas (Yeah) are buried here (Yeah) Amen Amen Quote Say a prayer for what has been We'll be the ones to purify our Fathers' sins American Requiem Them old ideas (Yeah) are buried here (Yeah) Amen (Amen) American Requiem is her coming to term with what she's been through of not being accepted and she's calling those ideas their "big ideas" and letting go of them. In Amen, it is her hopeful for the future and praying that it would not happen again and now calling those ideas "old" after she took you through the journey of the album by bending genres and letting us understand that we shouldn't confine ourselves to genres and the old idea that Black singers cannot be country. 11
