They truly think KatyCats of all fanbases care about Metacritic scores  I know some people need the external validation but that's just not us!

Wait what's aurora new nickname? I can't find her anymore. I have not seen her since WW release.

Does anyone know the context here?

 

I know it's from the Zane Lowe Apple Music interview she did recently for the album but I haven't had time to watch it. 
 

She sounds so sad 

 

 

He said there were 100 people out of AM build waiting for her

This is from the first minute of the interview. Zane mentions how there's over 100 people outside and that it's like a sold out event and then she replies with what's in the video on Twitter. He then segues into talking about how she worked hard to establish a name for herself and if she's still surprised that people still show up for her. It was a nice moment tbh and not as sad as that Twitter clip makes out.

when i first listened to has a heart i was like "what is this cliche, smile leftover sounding mess, thank god it didn't make the album" but now i kinda can't stop bopping and need it on spotify helpppp

'Cause one day, when we're older
Will we still look up in wonder?
Someday, when we're wiser
Will our hearts still have that fire?
Can somebody promise me
Our innocence doesn't get lost in a cynical world?
One day, when we're older
Will we still look up in wonder?

Had to do a mashup for this!

 Thank you for the clarifications!

I never noticed how similar they sound. It's kinda funny considering that Kelly has two Katy demos on one of her albums. Katy giveth and Katy taketh.

I bought the Target edition of 143 today and omg the booklet photos are EATING 

Can't wait to listen to "HAS A HEART" on my CD player without any quality loss! 

 

Speaking of "HAS A HEART", I can 100% confirm it's Daisy on this song - it says so in the lyrics booklet!

Crush on my running playlist 

[iamluisfelipe]

CRUSH is such a bop! hope she chooses this for next single

[RandomHooker]

Lucky charm

Thank god Had A Heart didn't make the standard edition because it would be getting a 2/10 from me . I haven't listened to No More Tears in full yet but it sounds promising.

I think the Target edition is the same as the HMV version that I have, so I agree about the booklet photos eating. Such an aesthetically pleasing era, but to be fair, she always delivers when it comes to photo shoots!

I think we aren't appreciating enough Gorgeous-IHHM run, it's an explosive so powerful duo

the reel she has up on her stories rn, man,  they can never take away her work ethic…say what you want but she aint lazy, impressive truly, she did that

Smile did 8k in the UK first week so i don't think 7k after 3 days is bad at all

I've despised most of the music she's released after One of the Boys but I gave this new album a listen last night.

 

There were three to four fairly good songs, to my surprise. 

 

- All The Love 

- Artificial (ft. JID) 

- Lifetimes 

- Nirvana 

 

All The Love:

This would have been a good direction to take the album.

All The Love is the only song where all parts of the song were enjoyable.

It's is a sound she does quite well. It has a nice melody.

 

8 sur 10.

 

Artificial:

I actually quite liked this one. 

It has a darker vibe and my favourite part of the song is actually JID's verse.

This would have been another good route to take the album.

I can't decide if this is as good as or better than All The Love.

 

8 sur 10.

 

Lifetimes:

The 'best' of the singles.

Fairly catchy, but very generic and repetitive lyrics.

Nothing new or noteworthy.

Good sl*t beat.

The refrain and the chorus are the best parts of the song.

 

6,5 sur 10.

 

Nirvana:

Painfully generic but some of it is catchy, notably the chorus.

The verses aren't great and the "Ah ooh" in the pre-chorus is off-putting. The weakest of the four. 

 

5,5 sur 10.

 

Rest of the album:

Just noise and fodder.

 

Overall, 143 is about the same level as Smile, so slightly better than Witness. 

 

 

Better luck next time, Madame Bloom.

Audit trail. 

 

Upon another few listens, I believe I was a little too harsh. I've now added

 

- Crush (7 sur 10)

- Wonder (6 sur 10)

 

That's 6/11 or 54.55% sur 100%

 

Old grade: F

Amended grade: F+
