I actually really like all this. The idea of being at peace amidst the chaos is the main theme of the album.

 

Everything kinda reminds me of Ray of Light for sure. People are saying the visuals are lacking the cohesiveness that FN had, but I almost feel like there isn't supposed to be one theme this era? Like, look at the MVs of Ray of Light and even Madonna's style throughout that era - they're all very different aesthetically, but they all match the overall theme Madonna had for the album. I think that's what Dua's ultimate goal here is, too.

These Walls and  Whatcha Doing are so short wtf

Are they interludes  

No, I thought that as well, the lyrics continue on the right side.

Dua doesn’t strike me as someone who can captivate the GP past her 30s. If this album can’t strike while her career is still hot, she’s over, sorry. We’re already witnessing the downfall 🤷🏻‍♂️

You sounds like a 30 yo gay who haven’t touched a dick in 10 years.

Okay Anita with the 7 posts. Thank you for the groundbreaking insight on Dua's career.

It’s not the drag you think it is💀 you’ve posted 48.5K times on a constantly crashing pop forum. I wonder how many years that took off your life….

 

OT: I’ll send my thoughts and prayers to Duas career. I hope she survives this hit

oh…two tracks on the album only have one verse. Only 11 tracks with 2 pre-album single releases and 2 tracks that are basically interludes? 

2024 The Age Of Pleasure is here

They aren't available yet, people are thinking they're interludes because of the messy design in the lyric insert

The same crashing forum that you joined on February 29 to troll. At least do a better job or go back to your main account.

No they're not out, I was just confused by the placement of the lyrics in the booklet, those 2 looked very short

What I am mad about it: you can't see the red hair which is the trademark of this era 

Anita is thread banned I do not need their negativity ruining this optimistic moment!

brb gonna read the lyrics and try to imagine how they all sound in my head
