Oh exactly :giraffe:

wow I didn't realize it's been almost 6 months since release, so I'll leave my goodbye post before this thread is closed.

 

overall I liked this album a lot, I can't say that I love it yet but I can see it landing on my top 5. Fortnight, My Boy, Down Bad, FOTS, loml, Broken Heart, TSMWEL and The Alchemy are my faves. So Long London is a masterpiece that deserves its place as the rest of her 5th tracks. Clara Bow is fantastic too and I'd love an album with those chill rock-ish guitars and production. I still need some time with The Anthology but I don't see another track beating I Hate It Here.

 

see y'all on the base and then Rep-ST TV/TS12

Since this thread is gonna be closed soon, let me share what I think the era should've looked like in my fantasy world.

 

Lead single: Fresh Out The Slammer (April - May)

Promo single (ala Bejeweled): I Can Do It With A Broken Heart (like a week or two after the album release)

2nd single: Guilty As Sin? (June - July)

3rd single: Down Bad (August - September)

4th single: My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys (October - November)

Final single: loml (December - January) 

 

All with videos of course :giraffe:

Ugh y'all are just not appreciating this album in the way it deserves to be appreciated. Like... the Reputation stems leaked. Okay? Big deal. When will the stems from THIS leak? Why aren't y'all on the streets outside the 13 Megladons office park rental picketing and DEMANDING these stems? Y'all are some ******* fakes. 

 

 

You are the stems sweety :suburban:

That title is clickbait to the fullest extent and I'm living for it. :laugh:

 

He's spilling a little and then some in the video too. :clap3:

 

Spoiler

I still haven't forgotten about the Midnights slandering so I'm keeping a little side-eye but he's been redeeming himself little by little. :clap3:

Since this thread is closing soon, I'm only here to say that Guilty As Sin deserved to be a single since it seems like this era will end when the tour does as well  :gaycat6:

Posted

Is this thread closing soon???? NOOOOOOOOO :weeps: 

 

TTPD you will always be loved and famous :heart2:

 

Now I hope her team let's Broken Heart run its course and focus on So High School (or another single) before the Christmas freeze!

Jack Antonoff talks about Down Bad to the LA Times saying that he is very proud of the song because it manages to transport him to another universe and that is what his favorite songs do:  

 

"It just captures this vacillation of the human experience so perfectly for me — like, I'm dancing, I'm driving in the dark. Am I crying? Am I making out with someone? It does a thing that a lot of my favorite songs do, where it just puts me in a place. (I'm particularly proud of) Just the totality of it: the LinnDrum; the tremolated, wobbling synth; the shimmering guitars. I could dissect it, but it just grabs me as soon as I hear it. It's like a born universe.

 

I feel that way about "August." I feel that way about "Cruel Summer." I feel that way about [Lana Del Rey's] "Venice *****." They just put you there in that universe. And you can't believe them when they happen, because they're the hardest to try to plan. They kind of come out of thin air, whereas some songs are these mountains that you work on forever."

 

it's coming... :jonnycat:

TTPD, the memorial to mental illness that you are. The way Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus, Fortnight, Guilty as Sin?, Down Bad, I Look in People's Windows, and Fresh Out the Slammer haven't left my On Repeat playlist since release should be studied.
 

I don't think there will be another album like it in her discography. That she was at one of her lowest points while putting on a smile for the biggest tour of all time is pure art. The blending of song subjects is top tier. Her pen was on fire the entire time. Very glad I'm one of those girls who gets it, because I can't imagine not recognizing the TALENTRY on display here :heart:

This really is such a brilliant album with so much TEXTURE and depth that ages like fine wine and sounds a little different depending on my mood and the context of my life. The critics really dropped the ball on this.

No like, I just listened to it and it really is ethereal. I feel bad for people who can't hear its greatness.

I have a feeling that Billboard reported that wrong though? :rip: Aren't those the extras on the Disney+ The Eras Tour film?

Oh so it's not the case. Thank god. I didn't know where these came from, it's a friend who told me that.
