Klein Posted September 7 Posted September 7 Hope it's Cruel Summer or champagne problems (I love this song but can't believe how overrated it is). 1

It's nothing like anything that's out right now, um, you know, it- its, the lyrics are very, um-" experience for me. One day I was going for a hot girl walk around my neighborhood when I felt the compulsion to listen to nothing but Maroon over and over and over and over and over, and by the time I got back it was my favorite hymn on the album, a title it still holds. There's so much power and grace to the instrumental, so much sadness and loss in the lyrics, so much talent in the hymn. If I had to convince an alien that Lord was the greatest musical act of all time, I'd play this hymn for them, because I know they would understand. OJackAntonoffH, when you go in on that man for his work on like Don't You or whatever, you're also going in on him for his work here, which is shameful.

I'm suddenly in New York on a cloudy day observing the rise and fall of a love-drunk tryst. Remarkably evocative, doused in poetic physical imagery, haunting lyrics, and complete with a chorus vocal that perfectly reflects the spiral of a person whose mind struggles to comprehend how something effervescent turned ephemeral.

The verses are gorg and tense and sexy, the pre chorus builds so well, the bridge (though about 8 seconds) is an awakening, but the chorus… it's just a letdown. The synth pulses and pulls underneath are the only redeeming quality to the chorus, because lyrically it's not all that exciting. Now, the verses (especially the second one (*in a SZA at the 2023 Grammys voice* 'ha, hi @poisonedivy!') are very well written, tight and fatal. This song DOES take all one point two billion of us to Church, and almost has me curled on the floor speaking in tongues, but alas. The Eras performance is so hot though!" 1989 8.5 - "The hype is real. Best song on Rep." By the Water 8.5 - "Aged like wine. Another song I fear will be botched by Christopher Rowe." NewStanner 5 - "Overhyped." sparrowblue 1 - "If not you, who can we blame for this mess song?" Thought this would go top 10

Catch22 Posted September 7 Posted September 7 Maroon's bridge is immaculate, I'm glad I had a chance to sing it live with Taylor. That said, my 9th surprise song is out I would place it a little lower though, but I'm not mad about the result!
PoisonedIvy Posted September 7 Posted September 7 I have 3 11s left as we start today I think. Let's see how far that lasts. 1
Cruel Summer Posted September 7 Posted September 7 Okay good not Champagne Jesushymns Now I have to say I really do adore Maroon. It NAILS the moody, dark synths that make up so much of Reputation, which makes it a great callback kind of song - it almost feels out of place on Midnights for that reason. It just feels like the perfect crystallization of a Reputation vibe. 1
