Ultra Violet

Best song:
Highschool Sweethearts and Show & Tell
 
 
Best "music video":
Same, and I think they should be singles, along with maybe Detention ,The Principal or Orange Juice
 
 
Favourite moment/s in the movie:
When the kindergarten teacher was snorting chalk and looked up at the security footage to see Mel and Kelly both levitating in a fight. And also when Angelita killed the science teacher. I'm still on edge about that actress but that was a good moment.
 
 
What you found most surprising:
That I loved The Principal, Lunchbox Friends and Detention.
 
 
Anything you predicted coming true:
That Recess would suck (the video, not the song)and that an extra song would be in the credits (but I think someone had proof of that anyway)
 
Any criticisms:
The start of lunchbox friends where Mel was singing at the table of the blonde girls was cringey. It would have been better if she was singing to herself while not paying attention to them, and then looking back at the table of her real friends.
Also that there seemed to be no guys in the picture when Strawberry Shortcake came on. I was expecting something to connect like a guy paying her too much attention or something before the song came on.
 
 
Which song you relate to most:
Highschool Sweethearts actually, cause not only am I still with mine, but that song relates to me be extremely picky in friendships too and I just can't handle being in a friendship that isn't real and what I need it to be.

Imagine a cover of Phil Collins 'In The Air Tonight' on this album.
She could make that song sound hot and seductive and make me cry and scream at the same time.
And the production in that song is not too far from what more I'd expect from her

I think her powers and her friends powers in the film was a metaphor for being able to see things clearly, like things happening you in the past that made you aware of hidden motives, what people's insecurities really are and patterns in society that go unnoticed or ignored by most. And then having the self awareness from it.
That would explain her "transformation" at the end of Mad Hatter and then a continuation of the black eyes through K-12

I want to see crybaby grow if she continues with the concept of it. Since we know she has 2 more visual albums planned I feel the 4th one will be the goodbye to crybaby as she essentially just graduated. So from here it’d be college & real life. Here songs in the vein of You Love I & Night Mime could actually be released which is so REFRESHING!

400 lux would fit that criteria too wouldn't it

Thank you! Listening now

I would like it if WHF would contrast NFR - a really glamorous-horrorish visuals with a very dark production

WOWOWOWOOWW imagine its your second album and you release a million dollar movie with absolutely gorgeous visuals. Legendary tingz

Best song: Teacher's Pet

 

Best "music video": Orange Juice

 

Favourite moment/s in the movie: i loooved all the choreo (ex. The Principal, Show & Tell, OJ, Detention) Mel is such a good dancer 

 

What you found most surprising: the budget! every set and every costume was exquisite 

 

Anything you predicted coming true: recess being the worst song oops

 

Any criticisms: other than the plot bcuz wtf was the plot, some songs had great segues (drama club's transition was great) but others made no sense (high school sweethearts) also my fav song(teachers pet) had a lackluster vid i wanted some choreo!

 

Which song you relate to most: lunchbox friends

Okay so I don't wanna rain on anyone's parade (including my own) but I was thinking about this just now and essentially I'm just wondering. Where do we go from here?
 
I mean. everything was fine when she released her debut and introduced the concept of the Cry Baby character. After that she could have went to any direction but she chose to continue and expand on the project she had already established. I'm not gonna complain since K-12 is a really nice album but I'm really torn right now. On one hand, if she makes more Cry Baby music it's gonna feel like she's dragging it out way too much, but on the OTHER hand I'd feel really weird to see anything by Melanie that isn't the Cry Baby concept and I think it'd be out of place in her discography for me personally.
 
What do you guys think?

wow truly one of the best music projects I've watched in a long time 
the dancing outside in the grass field in orange juice was so pretty 
detention and lunchbox friends got me dancing sis 
 
and holy fuk Fire Drill is honestly one of her best songs 

I LOVED THE MOVIE. Some parts were really underwhelming though Still, she did a fantastic job and I'm so proud of her. Now we just need fire drill in HQ.... 

Wow Buzzcut Season just came up on Spotify reccommended and I actually love it and it's the first Lorde song I've ever listened to without hearing it on the radio etc.
Can anyone kindly reccommend me more good songs. I like the dark stuff or songs that just have a really pretty sound and good production
?

Her look during The Principal, Detention and HSS were sooo good I can't stop thinking about it

Imagine a cover of Phil Collins 'In The Air Tonight' on this album.
She could make that song sound hot and seductive and make me cry and scream at the same time.
And the production in that song is not too far from what more I'd expect from her

Ok, let me start lol
 
Best song: Nurse's Office
 
Best "music video": Drama Club
 
Favourite moment/s in the movie: The whole scene/musical number of Orange Juice
 
What you found most surprising: The ending!
 
Any criticisms: Overall it's a beautiful and well put film, I'm very surprised by the quality on her directorial debut. My main criticism is that that are a few things that are not really explained on the movie like the whole "superpower" thing and what happened to Kelly. And some musical numbers that don't really make sense to the storyline, being Show & Tell and High School Sweetheart. I with they were incorporated in the movie nicely like the other songs, both give "cut to be a music video" vibe.
 
Which song you relate to most: Honestly, Fire Drill. Really hope we get that song officially on some version of the album.

Best song: imo Orange Juice (Nurse's Office right after)
 
Best "music video": High School Sweethearts (literally every video is perfect but this one is heavenly)
 
Favourite moment/s in the movie: nurse's office + orange juice
 
What you found most surprising: Teacher's Pet lyrics
 
Anything you predicted coming true: no
 
Any criticisms: it ends with "to be continued" vibes so we are getting a new crybaby era for sure
 
Which song you relate to most: Show & Tell

I'm also gonna add- I kept thinking "I would have loved this so much as a kid" even though obviously I do now, but I get it. She's aiming to make an impact on her fanbase which are probably mostly still in highschool, so I congratulate her for that.
It will do its job, plus has given us another amazing album full of visuals

I know this is so extra but I'd love to see everyone's opinions answering these after seeing the movie and listening to the songs. I love reading people's thoughts, but preferably in a logical format cause I'm a virgo fucking rising :

She doesn't even acknowledge WHF related questions during Instagram livestreams. Maybe the name dropping of this album was a prank by our random sis? Lana troll.jpg
