Oh @Click Clack help JT get off the floor.

There is no such thing.

Not even Orbit?

Thoughts on the new album by MILEY formerly known as (but somehow also still known as) Miley Cyrus? Have you been bass persuaded?

Oh wow, oh wow, is this really true?

Yes up until then he seemed to care about good songwriting but it feels like he's just... given up on that. And it's quite sad how many gay artists seem to think embracing their gayness means they must sacrifice depth in their music. I don't know why but it seems like a real struggle to balance "fun" with actually having something to say. George Michael didn't die for this.

Poor guy. I've followed him since the start of his career and it seems clear to me that despite posturing as bold, this song (and video) are the result of Troye being insecure about what he brings to the table as an artist. He has zero confidence in himself as a vocalist (which is why he won't even try to improve). He has no faith in himself as a songwriter (which is why he won't write anything, not even his features, without Leland). So he's decided what he has to offer in the form of artistry is this forced edgy provocative persona. Or maybe I'm wrong and it's genuine and all this is from his heart. Idk. But I'm just not buying it.

Notice she's drinking.

Just greedy.

This is CRAZY She can probably eat off this song for the rest of her life. Glad that she has the security but her label really needs to get up and push her new music. It's like they expect the success of this song to automatically transfer to the rest of her catalog so they're being lazy.

@Lorde

Mismanagement. They should have pushed more singles from Bird's Eye after Love Me Not blew up. But also, Blue Island was barely promoted. First two songs (Reputation/Bobby) were released unceremoniously earlier in the year. No performances, interviews, podcasts, playlisting or radio. Same thing with the follow-up songs Handle and Saturday Night. Then she does literally one performance of Handle the week of her album release.

RECORD LABEL EMERGENCY!

What country is that?
