Augmented Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Whilst listening to filler season I feel like I need to comment about her describing the album. The thing is with Dua she absolutely NAILED the album influences with Future Nostalgia (Blondie, Moloko, Jamiroquai etc) so I fail to understand why she didn't get her intentions properly across on this go around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summer Boy Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 I don't really love the album right now. Houdini is still great, very catchy. I really like French Exit and Watcha Doing is my favorite (by a large margin) so far. But yeah, the rest of the songs are decent, but not very strong. And the lyrics are way too cliché. I'll listen to it again tomorrow, but it feels like a weak 6/10 right now. Also, some of the songs are kinda boring for me, and it's the worst thing a generic pop song can be...

Quote Nobody needs to know the details of Lipa's real life to lend her songs weight, but there should still be something in her performance, delivery, songwriting or production that sets them apart from platitudes, from background noise. In her dance-pop singles, she's proven that she can do the 'pop' part, but the 'star' is still lacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
