This and My Heart Is A Crowded Room are better than anything from their EP last year. Emerald however sucks. I'm just glad they came back with an age appropriate sound instead of trying to appeal to kids like OneRepublic does.

Technically an EP is a collection of 3-7 songs with a duration of less than 30 minutes. An album or LP would be a collection of 8+ songs and a duration of over 30 minutes. Cannibal has 9 songs, 8 original + 1 remix, and runs over 30 minutes so it's technically an album. Because of the way it was originally released as a companion album to Animal has a lot of people confused. They do count it as a second album for her RCA contract as well. Sorry but you're technically wrong on all counts.

Everyone hoping for their favorite unreleased songs meanwhile I'm just hoping we can get official unedited versions of the censored track. I'm glad that album came out at the end of heavy censorship in music.

He just sounds like he doesn't have much training. Drew obviously had more vocal training than Zac had at the point. Zac doesn't sound bad but he hadn't figured out how to have personality when he sang here. He obviously did a lot of work for the rest of the films and Hairspray. On a side note; I remember back in the day Simon Cowell wanted to sign Zac to a record deal. Now I wonder if it was Drew or Zac he had heard.

I want to hear it with an 2000s brick wall pop radio mix because it sounds like when they remastered metamorphosis for vinyl and give it more separation but it kinda just sounds… off. It really reminds me of Workin It Out, it's just got too much taken off the low end so it sounds like it's coming from an old radio the entire song instead of intentionally. I don't even hate the production, even though there's a little bit too much Matthew in it for me. But, if Hilary loves it then so do I.

People saying Britney when she hasn't put out music in almost a decade. AI could imitate her but it will never replace her. It's definitely the faceless DJ feature singers getting replaced; Bebe, Zara.

I have a feeling this is going to be more reminiscent of Metamorphosis sonically. She said "pop" not "dance pop" and Metamorphosis is the definition of guitar driven pop. If that's the case I'm hoping this is Little Voice 2.0

Anyone have any ideas what they've got? My expectations are low considering the Y2K and Halloween drops but Britney and Addison have me a little excited.

Definitely was. The only reason it didn't seem more random that it is was because it was a holiday show. Honestly, I'm worried she'll be able to pull it off. Her voice has been incredibly weak lately. Her performance on TKCS was difficult to watch. Her vocal degradation is worse than Mariah's, I wonder what happened.

Hopefully it's a re recording of this Thanksgiving holiday classic!

She signed to Atlantic? How did I miss that??

Ok they need to push TFT to radio hard then since RD is dead now.

Damn I thought smile was a fever dream. I remember seeing something about it on a fan site back in 06 and it was supposedly from Dignity. I could never find the song but found Smile by Lily Allen instead and became a fan of her. Glad to know it wasn't made up.

Everyone is falling victim to the "right now" mentality here. Like if she doesn't drop the lead single right now she's going to flop. I get it, we're all starving! Let's remember that the process of making an album takes time. We don't know exactly how long she's been working on it already or how much more she wants to work on it. The deal with Atlantic was only announced in September and I'm sure she didn't have a full album ready when she signed. It also takes a few months to mix, master and manufacture physical copies which they'll definitely want ready for first week sales. Realistically releasing a first single in October when Christmas music is about to take over and the album isn't logically coming until next April/May at the earliest that would be a mistake. Anyone remember Disease? Exactly. Just a few weeks ago we talked about how poor the timing of her single releases were and how long they used to go between. Releasing anything this year would be like releasing Play With Fire 7 months before Dignity. I think it's reasonable to expect the campaign to start while she's filming Pretty Ugly. She could definitely film a music video and all the little TikTok/reels content during that time too. Anyway, I have a feeling everything it's going to be fine. I can tell there's a plan being executed. Been a fan since 03 and haven't felt her be this hungry to do music since the Metamorphosis. Between how much she wants it and having Matthew be her biggest cheerleader helping her and how desperate the fans clearly are she's going to be fine.

Quality over quantity babe
