aaron511 Posted March 13 Posted March 13 The album version of Houdini on Apple Music is slightly different from the single version. It's over a second longer and the intro has a bit more of her walking and breathing before the proper song starts I'm sure of that BUT I also think the production/mix might be a little altered. Somebody with proper earphones better listen and compare but I really think it sounds different.

Like you can’t make that **** up it’s peak amateur behavior Everything about this era is messy.. starting with the shitty music videos 3
liquiddiamonds Posted March 13 Posted March 13 I dont see whats the issue with the lyrics leaking. She’s not a poet. People go for Dua for the production, songwriting and her performance, not her words
Augmented Posted March 13 Posted March 13 1 minute ago, Yes, AND said: Do you think these were added in the re recorded tracks ? No I don’t believe so, I just assume the album sonically is a bit more diverse then just “it’s psychedelic”. She’s made reference to 90s Britpop, Primal Scream, Massive Attack etc when talking about the album so I’m sure those sounds will be spread over the rest of the tracks. We’ve also had tracks mentioned with a Carole King/ Fleetwood Mac vibe and a “dreamy midtempo”.

Digitalism Posted March 13 Posted March 13 23 minutes ago, Yes, AND said: So we have gone from psychedelic to Brit pop. Makes sense. I know you're just trolling in this thread But britpop was mentioned early in the era Maybe it's just about the visuals
Relampago. Posted March 13 Posted March 13 ATRLers will read the 7th grade vocabulary words “Radical Optimism” and suddenly it’s “she’s trying TOO hard. FAKE WOKE!!!” Let’s be honest, a lot of you decided you wouldn’t like the album cover or title the moment Houdini didn’t go top 10. Anyways, I actually think this is her best album cover. I love Future Nostalgia but it was mostly just a cvnty cover. I like that this one has a stronger concept that isn’t too hard to grasp onto. I also don’t think that there was… that much of a shift in aesthetic? The only real difference is there’s water in these covers. It’s not dramatically different from her bare face and minimalistic aesthetic in the Houdini and TS covers. I really don’t get the narrative that everything switched direction entirely. I guess I’m just glad we didn’t get the rumored ESV copy cover. 10 3
