Lol I know right? One of us Charli stans wrote this...

Ohh wow... check out this article. https://www.highsnobiety.com/p/charli-xcx-album-leak-investigation/ Freedom of the press! ...and the mention of RNR! :defeated: lmao

I think because she puts so much focus on the production too, it's always interesting and shifting and building... Not like some songs that just have a steady beat the whole time and nothing else happens. That gets too repetitive. Like when the bridge/build up starts... I'm not listening to Charli as much at that point, despite her repetitions... I'm listening to that thumping bass that comes in. It's an interesting shift. Then it quickly shifts again to that shiny layered synth part... Plus her melodies change around and "progress" enough to not get boring. It's just the queen delivering an all-rounded grade-A BOP! That's all there is to it!

I missed that one... oops... but emphasis on Black Roses!

I will add Black Roses to that list...

Double singles are pretty cool yahhh...

Charli is such a queen!!! :defeated:

Maybe it's because I started listening to Charli with Sucker, but I honestly find it to be the better album. True Romance is really good, I like the majority of it a lot... but it's got a couple of weaker moments in the middle and latter half of the album, IMO...

I actually don't mind the "chipmunked" vocals... I feel like they work well enough for the song and the progression, but Hannah Diamond's voice just sounds so bland to me, idk...

I would like Paradise so much more if it was just Charli...

Real talk...

Charli baby beamed back bops from the year 2089 with this latest release... She really did THAT. Her future pop aesthetic is so perfect! :flutter:

Yeah who knows man... it's just kinda strange.

How do all of these songs leak exactly? I mean, it's like such a borderline regular occurrence... ya know?

Wow... that hook on Theme Park is so good... different!

Got my new RollIngStone issue and Charli is featured a couple of times and there's a nice write up about her. She's in just about every issue I've gotten so far in some capacity. They must really like her over there.

Focus is a more fun song, a definite vibe, but No Angel is a classic! :defeated: It feels timeless...

Been streaming the double single on repeat, on Apple Music, the last couple of nights... Maybe I'll just loop No Angel tonight! It really surprises me how Focus has jumped out like it has, maybe because it's been featured in so many playlists internationally, and it's new... Idk.

Ahh it was pretty close, hard to tell with the faster tempo.

Yeah, sped up...

5ITM music video is trending #37 in the US!

The red Exchange look was definitely an iconic look of ALL TIME for her!! This is a cool idea!

Still says #106 for me... unless I'm not looking at the same list. No Angel is somehow not even close to as popular, but it doesn't sound like it's being pushed that hard either... :/

I just gotta say something... the way she has progressed into this PC Music type stuff... it's honestly PERFECT! I couldn't be happier with her direction... It just feels so good to finally have some "XCX3" material. The new songs are great, the production and melodies are just so "visual" and take me places, and I can't wait for the next drop! :defeated: Oh wow! It was 104 when I checked last... has No Angel made a dent in the top 100? It really deserves to...
