Psycho Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Video is great, easily best of the era Song is great too, not clearing Houdini but it should be the biggest hit of the era, the Levitating
SweetenerNostalgia Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Oh my god i was doubting her and she released the best song of the three? MOTHER
DUA LIPA Posted April 11 Posted April 11 the bridge in the extended version should be on all the physical releases / the album version because they made it even better
Crank_It_Up Posted April 11 Posted April 11 This is honestly IT. Even though I've been enjoying the music, I was worried with how lackluster this era has been feeling, when FN was such a joy to experience…but this is giving me hope! The song is great and the video is excellent. It finally feels like the era is actually starting! I hope they don't drop the ball going forward and go ALL in on this. This has potential to be HUGE everywhere, including the US. 1

The way she managed to give a sonic continuation of the first two singles (especially TS) with the chorus switch is unmatched. The bridge gave me goosebumps - I think there's a slight interpolation / ode to DB Boulevard which really hits. She's 3/3 so far and I think this is the one. The quality is on a whole another level. Dreams Broken, Boulevard of? I'm confusion
Erreur2 La Nature Posted April 11 Posted April 11 SONG OF THE YEAR There's no way this doesn't smash in a few weeks
Mark Rih Posted April 11 Posted April 11 (edited) The production is so good and detailed and european'd and daft punk'd.. why I even doubted her Edited April 11 by Mark Rih 1
Jglj Posted April 11 Posted April 11 It's a bop. The video looks so good, love how they used the Barcelona background to give a forced perspective type of thing to it.
Solaria Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Illusion being the song that started this whole album off.. WE LOVE IT EVEN MORE NOW UGHHHH
selena_lavigne Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Yeah. This album will be one I will be playing in my room, and from my DJ booth in 2028 a lot.
schnetzka Posted April 11 Posted April 11 I kinda want her to experiment with her voice more. She tends to mostly stick with her chest voice with only a few flourishes outside of that. I think "Illusion" would have benefited with something like that. As is, it has to grow on me. 2
Asherio Posted April 11 Posted April 11 OMG I switched so fast on this. What a BOP. Insane production. By far my favorite from this era. I really hope this becomes a summer smash, it deserves.
NumbSoul Posted April 11 Posted April 11 As expected, the MV is by far easily the best one of the era so far! A MAJOR serve The song is great too, but I will say - I think I like both Houdini and Training Season more, at least for now. Not that this one if bad, it just feels a bit safer and less interesting to me, but even just on second listen I'm already becoming obsessed with it as well, so she's easily 3/3 so far
glitch Posted April 11 Posted April 11 4 minutes ago, qwerty123123 said: Same. I think it's because we were so used to hearing the chorus on its own. She teased both everywhere before we heard the full thing. Yeah you're probably right, whereas the first time we heard Houdini it was in full.
SayIt Posted April 11 Posted April 11 10 minutes ago, glitch said: Idk if this is just me, but I found this with Training Season too. Individually the verses and the chorus are good but they don't merge together well? Like the chorus sounds like it was written for a completely different song. The extended version helped with that in TS so hopefully that's the case here too I feel the same way. It feels weird and makes it a little hard for me to listen to it
BIAATCH Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Ohh Ms. Lipa again snatching me with her singles i need an extended version. This era im mostly using the extended version of her songs.

Solaria Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Houdini the dark afterparty song where she's starting to realize that she needs ha man to tell her what she's worth Training Season is where she declares her freedom and not settling for less anymore Illusion is her enjoying herself and setting these new rules into motion 3
