Despite the bridge, P0's pre-chorus has the most ear wormy part of any song on the Encore. Stuck in my head.

The Patient Zero bridge would be ok if it wasn't for the borderline run-on sentence that opens it. The first time i heard it , i was like, is she going to take a breath? Lol

Apple Music #7 Patient Zero #11 Cleveland! #17 Pink Clouding #24 Babylon

The radio edit needs to delete the bridge or cut it down or something. It is so so wordy.

Patient Zero was the right choice. Catchiest pre-chorus/chorus of the four tracks. Bridge requires multiple listens to get used to. Wordy/talky. Babylon has the best writing. Babylon/P0 are my top 2 out of the 4 songs : )

Patient Zero has the catchiest pre-chorus/chorus, so i think they chose correctly on picking it as a single.

Ok, I have had enough downtime in my shift to listen to the 4 songs two times now. 1.Babylon has my favorite lyrics and melody of the new songs. So good. 2.Patient Zero is actually pretty damn good, but that bridge is driving me nuts. Too wordy and speaky. Let's see if the bridge grows on me. 3 and 4. Pink Clouding and Cleveland! Sound pretty good to my ear. Cleveland! Lyrics are the most whatevs of the four so I rank it last. I am sure things will flip around later.

My night shift starts when this gets released. UGH!!! I am going to be soooo curious to hear it. I may have to sneak out

Pretty sure it is available 9 PM PST or 12 AM EST

Mr. S reporting pink clouding is quite good !! Need those new songs yesterday!! Pink clouding to be the hidden smash?

The haters setting impossible and unrealistically high expectations so that when she doesn't hit them, they can laugh and point like the losers they are. @DevilsRollTheDice making complete sense here. Those are realistic.

Leaked lyrics?

The LA times article is from 2024!? lol. Ok, so they coincidentally used the term patient zero in their article. I am so intrigued what this will sound like!

So this sounds like a love song based on LA times. However, can be seen as universal, as you can equate any emotion as being contagious.

Woof, that Patient Zero thread is already a cesspool of haters and snark. Nonsense.
