celeb news Pinkpantheress: "We don't need long songs, we don't need bridges"

[TitanicSurvivor]

And i don't need Pinkpantheress and so?

[NoOneDiesFromLove]

TikTok's fried her brain 

[Headlock]

[Digitalism]

I mean she can do whatever she wants but why would she say this publicly. 

She is kinda late into this conversation. Songs have been short and bridgeless for years now. Why is she bringing this up now as if it means something.

[bad guy]

Love some of her songs and I guess this works for her but if everyone followed that we would never get this:

 

 

Like I can't imagine a world without SONGS.

 

[OnlyManInTheWorld]

That's why she's nobody.

[Devin]

no thats called poor songwriting.

[hallucinate]

ffffff yes we do

i enjoy her music but she sounds stupid

[nostalgic]

The Velvet Rope: say that to my face *****

[Dante Silva]

I do not agree with her. Music is supposed to take you on a journey. I can't help but think her opinion is informed by having grown up during the Streaming/ TikTok age where her exposure to contemporary music has been heavily edited by the demands of TikTok.
 

It is so sad that the exposure she has received from heavily edited music has informed her opinion and made her believe 2 mins 30 secs is a nostalgic norm for her generation, so much so that she doesn't even understand the concept of getting pleasure from longer arrangements to the point that she actively wishes to maintain such short song durations in her own work.

 

I feel sorry for her.

Bridges are so essential to music, and they can be the absolute defining moment of a song. They can bring movement, urgency, uncertainty, humor, a respite, so many things. They can transform what is a very good song into a classic record. 
 

Even though the lengths are slightly little longer than what she's saying, eternal sunshine is a great modern example that songs can be concise AND well conceptualized. Many of those songs have bridges even though you might not expect them to with their runtimes, and they benefit greatly from them.

First of all **** her!!

 

Second lock her ass and throw away the key.

Who is this talentless and ignorant person? 

[Stepfon]

Well, no, this isn't true, and I wish the younger generation of artists would stop this way of thinking. 

[blackoutbritney]

The bridge on songs usually being my favorite part…….. jail 

[illia]

Sister is wrong but we forgive her 

[UnusualBoy]

So she basically loves ringtones, girl bye, just say you're lazy and call it a day.

[Katamari]

If she says we don't need bridges than we don't need them  

[Trainwreck]

Idk who this is and I'm grateful

[Cheers]

Can you guys stop pretending her music is good just because you like her aesthetic?

[twinkpeaks]

[K$Ellie]

people are always annoying and defensive over this topic but her songs work just fine at 2:30, it's only an issue when the song feels half baked but that doesn't apply to all short songs

[Blue.]

Bridges are usually the best part of sons what is she saying  

[Bussea]

i feel like it's a case by case thing some songs needs to be more than two, but there are some that actually get the job done…

 

… but im so sick of the whole EVERY song being 2 minutes thing  

 

but she's completely wrong on the bridge thing. It can absolutely can make or break a song tbhhhhh

I don't think that the length of a song is related to its quality, so if an artist can release great songs in 2:30 minutes, that's not a problem.

Not usually the case tho.
