Can you spot these influences in Halsey's music?


Recommended Posts

Posted

 

Halsey grew up as a devoted Bieber and Harry Styles stan, she's also been a huge Lana fan. I find that their influence is pretty easy to spot in her discography

 

What about these artists she impersonates for her upcoming album?

Sorry, but I don't hear any Tori or Polly Jean in her music at all :rip:

I don't hear more than half of these in her discography.

I don't understand this era. We get it, Nostalgia and whatever, and I loved Lucky's cover, but this takes too literally the idea of "going back" to get inspiration.

she should quit music and do drag

I mean...let's hear the full album first, right?

 

I don't really hear it for I Never Loved You.  Lonely Is The Muse is much more shoegaze-inspired IMO than the music Evanescence make. 

 

I can hear The Cranberries a bit for Ego.

Go listen to Manic and you will find it.

I love that she's making **** up as she goes just so she can cosplay a lil. A fan clocked her saying previously that one of the songs was mainly inspired by a different artist and she just said "yeah, it's a different influence " :ahh:

Let's remember queen is tri-bi, so her songs are bi-influence too

 

Anyways i love this impersonator thing she is doing, can't wait for the last one

How we can tell if she said such artists inspired content it's for the album and it isn't out yet? Did op travel in time?

I think op is asking, out of these influences she has showcased in these posts, can we hear them in the music she has released thus far?

Aside from Bowie (fashion) and Dolores (vocal influence) she never listed those as influence music wise for her previous albums so what was the point of the question? she's making music inspired by her fave artists from each decade what does her other albums have to do with that

She's says she's grew up on Tori, Fiona's a life inspo for her, Britney's is the first popstar to influence her, Joni's her favorite lyricist of all time... I'd expect them to be all over her material since her debut

Well that's on you babes, they were never mentioned as inspo for the previous material. Back to the drawing board! BADLANDS a concept album about HER state of mind and feeling lonely, hfk being her take on the Romeo and Juliet story yet you wanna her Britney and Joni :deadbanana2:

Lana also said britney is a inspiration to her and one of her favorite artist but none of her music sounds like britney

 

None of halsey music sounds like 1d, only JB but both were releasing trendy songs so it makes sense if they sound like each other, doesn't mean she was influenced by him

Literally just stfu, she's inspired by those people - she never said that her inspiration translates to a carbon copy of her music and FTR I really don't hear anything remotely comparable to Harry sodding Styles. Just appreciate that out of all the album releases this year she's the only one to go out of her way to be out of the box and attempt something different.

Hmm. According to this she's a major pop nerd but if she were, why are all her influences so on the nose? We all have our khia faves yet her faves are all million selling artists...
