    I mean do we really have to worry about Charli selling out? There's a difference between Charli being stuck in label hell with her label trying to get a quick hit a la Boys versus Charli writing Same Old Love, Fancy, I Love It, etc. (except actually keeping them this time instead of giving them away, lol).

     

    But anyways, it feels like maybe she's trolling/hyping the Janet album.

    Anyways, my top 3 from Charli... it's very volatile. Never sure of what my actual favorites are because its always rotating. Right now I'd say that the ones that I go back to the most are:

     

    Next Level Charli

    Gone

    Thoughts

     

    But also... Shake It exists. February 2017 exists. Cross You Out exists. It's like picking favorite children.

    LOVE HIFN, every song. it's made me a real fan of hers. currently overwhelmed. which other tracks give off that sad, but imma party vibe? wanna get to those first from her prev records. 

     

    Thoughts, Track 10, Backseat, Blame It On U, Delicious...

     

    Not sonically the most similar to HIFN, but definitely some of her more emo tracks.

    btw, which part of ROL did she use for gone? or was that just a fake rumour 

     

    Iirc it's just (part of?) the melody of ROL that she "re-used"?

    ok this is kind of annoying to me. when did the narrative start that SOPHIE was against the 'commodification' of her art? she literally NEVER said that.

     

    Soph ALWAYS was about her money. Literally always. In her earliest interviews she said that she considers the genre of her music to be 'advertising' and gained her fame from Lemonade being featured in that McDonalds commercial. She has declined signing to a major, created her own publishing company so she makes more points on her records, and signed independently to retain rights over her masters. 

     

    Plus remember when Brooke put her on blast for charging $10K for 'Oh Yeah?' Ms. Xeon is a business woman and a BUSINESS, WOMAN! She sold her remix album for $300 bucks a pop in 'clutch bag format' (her words) before putting it on streaming. she joked about 'leaking' her four albums, but i dont think that was ever gonna be the case. SOPHIE is about her purse and never has let anyone f*ck w/ her money. framing these leaks as anything less than damaging is really not it.

    Didn't know my fantasy would hit such a nerve...

     

    Anyways, stream Transnation (if it comes out)!

    In my fantasy, SOPHIE is leaking all of this shit herself to prevent the commodification of her art, committing to anti-capitalism by preventing her tracks from being boughten...

    Imagine Charli cashing in on the trendiness of the 80s/90s throwback sort of sound that's getting popular right now on a throwback-sounding album with production from Dev Hynes, Jack Antonoff, Ariel Rechtshaid, Deaton Chris Anthony, etc. I wonder if the Janet album cashes in upon this throwback sound but with production from AG. It would also be cool to have SOPHIE produce a 90s sounding track for Charli too considering how a lot of the Transnation leaks + WGFU for some reason scream 90s to me.

     

    I feel like True Romance definitely had a level of nostalgia in its production. I'm not well versed in music enough to make specific references but there was this heavy throwback feeling I got from the record (as well as with the proximity of her covers of The Killing Moon and I Want It That Way). It would be cool to see Charli bring that back again.

     

    I would never say no to more PC music though, I just eat that shit up, but it would be cool to hear Charli make something different nowadays. But ultimately if she changes up her sound, I really hope she'd expand her horizons in terms of producers...I think that she would really benefit from working with people she's either hardly worked with or haven't worked with since TR/Sucker. Even a collab with SOPHIE in 2020 I feel would be refreshing for her sound considering they haven't worked heavily together since 2016 or so.

    I honestly just don't like Swish Swish haha! And wasn't she just featured on If We Ever Meet Again?

    Yeah, but I think it's commonplace to include a feature on a greatest hits album if its that iconic

    Honestly, a greatest hits album from her would be pretty amazing! I know they're not really a thing anymore but perhaps when she kicks off the Vegas residency (if that's still happening), she could launch one alongside the show. I mean, her singles run is kinda incredible...

     

    1. I Kissed A Girl
    2. Hot N Cold
    3. Thinking Of You
    4. Waking Up In Vegas
    5. California Gurls featuring Snoop Dogg
    6. Teenage Dream
    7. Firework
    8. E.T. featuring Kanye West
    9. Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)
    10. The One That Got Away
    11. Part Of Me
    12. Wide Awake
    13. Roar
    14. Unconditionally
    15. Dark Horse featuring Juicy J
    16. Birthday
    17. Chained To The Rhythm featuring Skip Marley
    18. Bon Appetit featuring Migos
    19. Never Really Over
    20. Harleys In Hawaii
    21. Daisies

    Hurts how you didn't include Swish Swish and If We Ever Meet Again.

    I think it's a really lovely video and captures the essence of the song well even if she isn't lipsyncing the song and whatnot. Although I do feel like some of the sounds in the instrumental sound like a subway's doors warning they're about to close so I do wish there was some scene of this video on the subway. 

     

    Quite beautiful when they both killed each other.

    Reason Why

    Sunscreen

    Take Me To Dubai

    Lock It Up

    My Forever

    Spliff In My Ear
    Burn Rubber

    New York’s Burning Down

    TransNation

     

     

    The international ramifications if SOPHIE were to put these 9 tracks on streaming. I feel like many artists would announce their retirements immediately. The Billboard charts would have to shut down for a month because they would need extra time to count the groundbreaking streams and sales of this record.

    I hate reissues, so I hope she doesn't re-release the album. If she didn't have the cut songs ready for when the album came out, she better just out them out as standalone singles or save them and rework them for a later project.

    I just don't get why artists like to reissue their works with songs they already had before the album's first release.

    This bothers me too lowkey if it's just slapped onto the record. However, if it is its own release, I'd be cool with it (BTD/PE sort of vibe).

     

    What if she were to brand it as HIFN (Documentary Edition)? Disc 1 being the standard album, disc 2 being the demos, remixes, etc.

     

    My dream tracklist for a HIFN (Documentary Edition) Disc 2:

    1. If I Cried

    2.2Hot

    3. I Hate All This Gravity

    4. Breathe Out

    5. Dreams

    6. If I Cried (alt. mix)

    7. Party 4 U (original demo)

    8. Forever (demo)

    9. I Finally Understand (demo w/ scrapped verse)

    10. and on as remixes. 

     

    I'm sorry I know we get fed with all these leaks but she really needs to make up for True Romance (deluxe). I still hold a grudge for that.

    Wait, I just heard Voices Carry for the first time... I'm convinced that Sky could release an album full of covers like this and Easy and I would still stream the fuck out of it. Mastermind curator.

    Downhill Lullaby was a terrible choice for the first single. It's a great song, but it would serve better as a follow-up promo single. Or... it would have been a great strategy on a double single with a track like Guardian and/or had been released with a killer music video.
