Some lyrics could have been better tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TryMe Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 I have listened to a lot of FN outtakes and a large portion sounds like this but less summery. Ball and Chain, Crocodile Tears, Berlin Summer. I loved these songs, however these songs don't hit the right spot for me. I loved the singles, but these songs seem very plain like potato, meat and vegatables. There are no real dishes to me.... I think the problem lies in the production, it's really stripped back, some of the instruments sounds straights out of GarageBand. But I will give it another try.

_Fey Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Finally listening to this in my country. Omg it sounds so good. The 6.6 from * is also so surprising to me. Considering it's been getting 3s and 4s, I assumed they would go in. Dua must be in their "we don't mind her" list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halcyonday Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Happy For You is one of the highlights. Maybe if the entire album fit its vibe of summery, breezy escape instead of trying to pretend to be psychedelic pop... it would've been a much better album.

scottstreet Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 There's a few new important reviews out but they're not rated, we'll have to wait for Metacritic to update. But one of them looks panned and the other two seemed to like the album. https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/music/story/2024-05-02/dua-lipa-radical-optimism-album-review https://consequence.net/2024/05/dua-lipa-radical-optimism-review/amp/ https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/03/arts/music/dua-lipa-radical-optimism-review.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
