liddos acting a lil too brave when Bruno has yet to confirm DWAS isn't on his album

I'm not a fan of the gay man trapped in a lesbian's body music that is Robyn

I was surprised to see the mixed reception for this one... and then I wasn't.

Further proof of a deep generational chasm that divides ATRL into two camps; the twentysomething pop sophisticates with 15 to 20 years of top-shelf pop consumption to their name, and an unruly kid crew with Chappell Roan avatars and tributes to Olivia Rodrigo in their signatures. It's not that the latter generation is a lost cause entirely, but they've clearly never heard a "Robyn" — that is, they've never encountered a voice quite as distinctive as Robyn's. "But I know Robyn! Body Talk was the first album I bought!" First off, ask for a refund. And no, you don't know Robyn, you know a very stilted and subdued version of the iconic performer.

The Robyn of "Sexistential" is Robyn as Robyn is intended to sound. She very skillfully vacillates between a range of tones; she nasally, then guttural, then grainy, then nasally again, then delicate. (And yes, that's how she's supposed to do it.) She's sultry. She's goofy. She's sounds slightly absurd. She's fully engaged. She's expressive in ways that "technically superior" vocalists just aren't. She is brilliant. You have no idea how brilliant she is.

This is the probably purest attempt Robyn has made to harness some of that ineffable charm that made her early work so irresistible. I adore it.

even that girl, so annoying song came and went despite her fan telling everyone it was SOTY. oh Whorde

Some things represent the glass ceilings for certain demographics.

girl so confusing is the glass ceiling for a chronically online girls and gays hit.

Padam Padam is the glass ceiling for a #PRIDE gay hit.

ARTPOP's first week WW physical sales is a somewhat accurate census of young homosexuals.

Madame X's first week WW physical sales is a somewhat accurate census of 50+ homosexual males.

Record labels and politicians should pander accordingly.

How do y'all do those

So we all agree Sexiconfident is a bomb

Erotica sucks so bad

Even though I'm glad Kylie got a hit with Padam Padam, Tension (the song) deserved it more

Beyond Sáving hasn't made good music since someone told her she could rap.

mind you the anorexia promoter's only, very mildly, acclaimed album is her in blackface delivering corny rap attempts with third grade lyrics

I'm conflicted whether this is the best or worst performance of all time

I asked myself the same question when I watched this performance for the first time

Literally no one is talking or making threads about Bruno outside of the DWAS context or for OGH purposes, but suddenly everyone "can't wait" for his album I-

#ThankYouBruno for clocking these messy gheys
