glacier76 Posted March 14 Posted March 14 I just watched the promo on YouTube. The aesthetic reminds me of 90s MuchMusic VJ. If you have seen One Day on Netflix, think of 90s Dexter being a tv personality.
Rotunda Posted March 14 Posted March 14 The album cover is kinda giving me high school textbook vibes (in a good way). 5
Lady Claire Posted March 14 Posted March 14 The album title is good. I don't love the cover but also don't hate it - if anything, i'm indifferent. I like the concept but can't associate it with the singles. I could see Rihanna doing something with that concept along with a dancehall/tropical album though
SayIt Posted March 14 Posted March 14 “you guys give me this RADICAL sense of confidence…all of the love and support and OPTIMISM is what inspires me” From her speech at the Brits when she won for Pop Act of the year 1 2
itsdavimiguel Posted March 14 Posted March 14 I like the cover, not obsessed with it, but is cute. Hate the title. My problem here is the title/aesthetic. This summer thing doesn’t fit the previous singles/visuals at all. Perched for the music.
aesthetic bih Posted March 14 Posted March 14 I like the title, it fits well along with "Future Nostalgia" As for the cover, I think the water takes too much portion of it tbh, you can barely see her
Relampago. Posted March 14 Posted March 14 I’m screaming at Radical Optimism being hard for people to pronounce and remember PLEASE open up the schools! 12 1
Dula Peep Posted March 14 Posted March 14 get ready for at least four more years of radical optimism........... 2 5

Makes me an optimist, I guess I always jump too quick, hoping this one might stick Hopelessly romantic, then you said Hey, And I said hey What's your name? Come with me Cause when I see your face The sweetest pleasure I feel like we're gonna be together This could be the end of an era Who knows baby, this could be forever Forever No more, you're not my type No more, at least I tried Done with the lonely nights, I guess One chapter might be done God knows I had some fun New one has just begun, you said Hey, And I said hey What's your name? Come with me Cause when I see your face The sweetest pleasure I feel like we're gonna be together This could be the end of an era Who knows baby, this could be forever Forever In the clouds, there she goes Butterflies, let them flow Another girl falls in love Another girl leaves the club Send a big kiss goodbye To all of the pretty eyes Another girl falls in love Another girl leaves the club I've lost all my senses, lalala, lalalala Is this my happy ending? lalala, lalalala The sweetest pleasure I feel like we're gonna be together This could be the end of an era Who knows baby, this could be forever And ever In the clouds, there she goes Butterflies, let them flow Another girl falls in love Another girl leaves the club Send a big kiss goodbye To all of the pretty eyes Another girl falls in love Another girl leaves the club these walls Maybe we should switch careers Cause baby you know no one beats our poker faces And when the nights ends up in tears Wake up and we blame it all on being wasted Ooooh, this love is fading So much we're not saying But if these walls could talk They'd say enough, they'd say give up If these walls could talk They'd say You know you're fücked It's not supposed to hurt this much Ooh if these walls could talk They'd tell us to break up They'd tell us to break up They tell us go and face your fears It's getting worse the longer that we stay together We call it love but hate it here Did we really mean it when we said forever? Ooooh, this love is fading So much we're not saying But if these walls could talk They'd say enough They'd say give up, I know If these walls could talk They'd say You know you're fücked It's not supposed to hurt this much Ooh if these walls could talk They'd tell us to break up They'd tell us to break up You don't wanna go, don't wanna stop Heaven knows I don't wanna be the one to cut it off But if these walls could talk They'd say enough They'd say give up, I know If these walls could talk They'd say You know you're fücked It's not supposed to hurt this much Ooh if these walls could talk They'd tell us to break up They'd tell us to break up whatcha doing After midnight me and my thoughts alone There's a part of me that wants to steal your heart And a part that tells me don't Cause I'm no good at giving up control Are you worried that I might find something wrong Cause I'm worried that I won't But if control is my religion Then I'm heading for collision Lost my 20/20 vision, please Whatcha doing to me baby? I'm scared to death That you might be the one to change me You're in my head and now you're clouding my decisions Got me heading for collison Whatcha doing to me baby? Oh Whatcha doing? In the future, I see you next to me But I can't shake the feeling that there's more to learn In the time between But if control is my religion Then I'm heading for collision Lost my 20/20 vision, please Whatcha doing to me baby? I'm scared to death That you might be the one to change me You're in my head and now you're clouding my decisions Got me heading for collison Whatcha doing to me baby? Oh Whatcha doing to me?

How long, how long Can we stay like this together? Can we keep falling forever? How long Can it just keep getting better? Can we keep falling forever? Oh, oh How long How long anything for love And I'm not interested in a love that gives up so easily I want a love that's set on keeping me When it hurts we don't even think to cut it off And I'm not interested in a heart that doesn't beat for me I want a mind that meets me equally When it's hard it won't ever feel like it's too much Remember when we used to do anything for love? We're all so scared of forever And no one promises always We're not perfect together That means we gotta part ways Remember when we used to do anything for love? We're all terrified of heartbreak Run at first signs of problems Make it look way too easy We've all got too many options Remember when we used to do anything for love? But I'm not interested in a love that gives up so easily I want a love that's set on keeping me When it hurts we don't even think to cut it off Remember when we used to do anything for love? maria I've had love but his is the deepest, yeah Says he'll never leave, he means it too yeah Oooh I owe it to you He was cold and now he's the sweetest, yeah Cause he knows how much there is to lose, yeah Oooh I owe it to you Oooh I owe it to you Oooh I owe it to you, Maria, I know you're gone But I feel ya when we're alone Even when I'm here in his arms I know you're somewhere in his heart Maria Maria I know you're somewhere in his heart When love comes young you take it for granted, yeah Now he knows certain things you can't undo, no Oooh I owe it to you Deepest affect always comes from a cause I'm better too from the ones that I've lost Now he is everything I'd ever want I wanna thank you for all that you've done, oh Maria, I know you're gone But I feel ya when we're alone Even when I'm here in his arms I know you're somewhere in his heart Maria Maria I know you're somewhere in his heart Never thought I could feel this way Grateful for all the love you gave Here's to the lovers that make you change, Maria, Maria, Maria Maria, I know you're gone But I feel ya when we're alone Even when I'm here in his arms I know you're somewhere in his heart Oh Maria I look in his eyes and I see ya Time after time Even when I'm here in his arms I know you're somewhere in his heart happy for you Late on a Tuesday I saw your picture You were so happy, I could just tell She's really pretty, I think she's a model Baby together you look hot as hell And I didn't even want to cry, oh what is this feeling? Couldn't believe it, had to ask myself why I must've loved you more than I ever knew (Didn't know I could ever feel) Cause I'm happy for you (Now I know everything was real) I'm not mad, I'm not hurt You got everything you deserve I must've loved you more than I ever knew I'm happy for you And looking back now, I hope you see it Even the hard parts were all for the best I see where you're at now, you picked up the pieces And then you gave them to somebody else And I didn't even want to cry, oh what is this feeling? Couldn't believe it, had to ask myself why I must've loved you more than I ever knew (Didn't know I could ever feel) Cause I'm happy for you (Now I know everything was real) I'm not mad, I'm not hurt You got everything you deserve I must've loved you more than I ever knew I'm happy for you You, you, you I'm happy for you You, you, you (Hope you're happy too) Oh, I must've loved you more than I ever knew (Didn't know I could ever feel) Cause I'm happy for you (Now I know everything was real) I'm not mad, I'm not hurt You got everything you deserve Oh I must've loved you more than I ever knew I'm happy for you These Walls has modern classic written all over it whew
RadioactiveLights Posted March 14 Posted March 14 As usual, some of you all are melting down for no reason I'm ready for another iconic, 3-year era with both smash and underperforming singles. With lots of memes. And most of all, amazing music Bring on the RADICAL OPTIMISM 2 1
Bhabylon Posted March 14 Posted March 14 This album title She went to ChatGPT and had to come up with something quick
Abracadabra Posted March 14 Posted March 14 Do we think she will be starting the tour this year or waiting until next year?

With lots of memes. And most of all, amazing music Bring on the RADICAL OPTIMISM I mean it is mainly the US not catching on. Houdini has been a top 10 in a lot of countries and showing longtivity in some markets. And Training Season hasnt peaked yet in a lot of markets. There is Def. Room for improvement this era but people pretend she was #80-OUT so far for the singles Edited March 14 by J-esper 2
truthteller Posted March 14 Posted March 14 i need something like this lyrically. make it happen vacay queen.
everytime Posted March 14 Posted March 14 (edited) love the title and cover. but why is the lyric “oooh whatcha doin?” used as the hook in two different songs? (whatcha doing & illusion) hoping it’s an intentional reprise situation otherwise… Edited March 14 by everytime 1

AMIT Posted March 14 Posted March 14 the album artwork is great. it is dark just like the previous singles aesthetics. the other pics released serve more of a light contrast to those (except the eyebrow shaved one which is also darker in tone). she is trying to keep up the feel-good energy amidst the chaos (which is obviously represented by the shark). I don't see how the cover is giving Solar Power or whatever. Just because it's daytime? lol It does remind me of ESV, but the concept here feels more general about the dating world rather than mostly a post-breakup album like Miley, but I could be wrong. Super excited to hear though! 1
