It's modern pop but with some nice instrumental pop/rock flourishes without sounding dated. 1
Afterglow Posted September 23 Posted September 23 21 hours ago, abra said: You're being too defensive… It's ok if you like it but as a mixer I agree that comparing is fine as long as it's not toxic. Perrie's singles have been way, way below what she could deliver with a voice like that, but it seems like she has bad taste. Leigh Anne's EP is great, but there have been some questionable production at points. Obviously, she was always going to have a harder time being a black woman. JADE took a risk and showed a lot of personality and it reasonated well with the public. Don't Say Love is the one I played the most out of all them and Perrie's material is the one I played the least by far, but I do think JADE delivered the best package and seems to be the one most sure about where she's going and how she'll get there. She knows her public. Eh, I agree and concede.
Migs Posted September 24 Posted September 24 Hope this is a hit for her, but girl needs to do some promo. She didn't promote the other two singles very well, me thinks.
Garbaj Posted September 24 Posted September 24 as much as i love them as a whole and as solo artists... it just seems like perrie needs that "BOOM" of a single... this just isn't memorable or jaw-dropping to make people tune in for more than a day. i really need her to find her sound.

WERKER Posted September 25 Posted September 25 Hope you girlies got your preorders in!! Hoping for a top 40 debut this time
shark_heather Posted September 26 Posted September 26 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DAYfjBeNin1/?igsh=MzZ6Ym5zcGNucW9k Eh , guys do you like this ? 🤔
butterflymimi Posted September 26 Posted September 26 it definitely sounds better than tears, although i'm not feeling that snippet she just posted im not going to judge it properly until we hear the whole thing
Irvine Posted September 26 Posted September 26 hmm...the new snippet unfortunately does not sound like it could save this solo era she really needs to stop playing it safe
DemnisBreezy Posted September 26 Posted September 26 I think it sounds cute. Could be good but nothing too special. She really is playing it save. I hope her team has physicals ready on release day and that enough people were interested in getting Me Myself and I (which sounded quite meh imho ) with it so that she can sneak a top 20 debut somehow. I see myself bopping to this on release day anyways hehe

There's this cheesy antiquated approach to everything, she has the vibe of an artist who's on their eleventh album trying to gain younger listeners.

Pfff im sorry but its all wrong to be , all 3 singles even the way she is presenting herself This snippet is just bad noise to my ears She should be out there giving us either a new Leona Lewis or Kelly Clarkson / Olivia Rodrigo / Chappell Roan kind of thing There is lack of taste , lack of vision , lack of identity . I really hope im wrong cause i love her so much and i wish her the best but ... Edited September 26 by shark_heather
goldstargay Posted September 26 Posted September 26 She has such a good voice but I totally agree that she isn't carving out any kind of musical identity. So far everything sounds like it could literally be put out by any other UK bubbling under flop pop girl. her distinction is her vocal ability so save these songs for Mabel and give us VOCALS 1
mampie Posted September 26 Posted September 26 She needs to fire whoever her A&R is honestly, because you have someone who has a voice as big as perrie's and for her first 2 singles you get demos from Ed Sheeran and Selena Gomez (of all people ). The songs just aren't meant for any big vocals so instead she just chucks on some high notes and adlibs on the tail end of the songs to try to make up for it (it really doesnt). I hate to compare her music to a literal legend like Whitney but that cover she did was the best thing she's done her entire solo career and that's because the song highlights her voice all the way through not just for the high notes here and there and I hope she realizes at some point that that's what the people want from her.
glitch Posted September 26 Posted September 26 The mixing on this sounds a complete mess. The potential was there but that snippet is giving earbleed
GloryDays Posted September 26 Posted September 26 Does her team cares anymore? They saw the Whitney cover went viral, they had to be quick and scrap any plan Perrie had to record an "I wanna dance with somebody" sampled song with some big vocals and a good video but hey, after FAU and Tears I don't expect that much of creativity coming from Pezza or her team. Watch her go on vacation the day after she releases this single 1
