I don't think so, I wasn't letting that go, not with the Halsey thread you were frequenting dear

YES. I heard PURE TALENT.

Since she's trifling and likely won't release half of them, I'm finally downloading ALL songs she's premiered live Anyone have a link for these? TKO Daddy Knows Hey Boy Hey Girl Taxi Burn Rubber Give Me Your Love Round & Round

Everyone can Google it, just like I did. ffs y'all millenial Lorde listeners not on this download grind Okay the final notes of Perfect Places just played and I'm in love with this album. It's so intimate and colorful and melodramatic and catchy as hell too. In the end I'm glad the whole album tells one story and stands out from the topical songwriting of Pure Heroine. It feels like she's developing her feelings over the course of the album instead of taking one song to capture it for the sake of variety. Ahhhhhhhh not to mention Melodrama is like the album-length jump off point from A World Alone, four years later

I'm already choreographing a contemporary ballet routine to The Louvre --> Liability

We love flip floppers Gonna listen ahhhhh

How's that going? Lol someone PM me

Mmm the verses on the original sound faster/actually hard-hitting. It's like she's enunciating too much here, just listen to how "proud of it" is awkwardly stretched by like .2 seconds. Its enough to sound wrong okay lol. Maybe its not a new take though and just in the production/mixing

Lol you're not wrong, I had Simon Says under the cringe list at first but I decided its more elite than the other two songs. Its more Gaga yikes than Halsey yikes, ya know? Pffft let's not take ANY time to dissect "listening to everything from grunge to rock n roll"

Some thoughts on CXII: - Vintage and Lifted are bops, but cringey bops. I would never let anyone catch me playing those lyrics out loud. Melody wise she kills it. - Casanova, Simon Says, and Paper Love are cringe-free bops. I thought PL was too generic at first but in the context of the album it just stands out as like, the main "single." So I'm not mad at it. - She really made OHDH and TSU way duller with their new vocal takes. Idk if she's trying to sound "commercial" or something but it was unnecessary. I liked the songs in their original form but this is just too bothersome to enjoy. Like an iTunes karaoke version or something. - I'm not moved by Downtown, I feel like I've heard it before. So a bit like Paper Love I guess, but I like it less. I see what she's doing, coming with those familiar structures n shit. - True Love is Violent, cute but not gonna be getting those replays. I only follow Alfie X for the synthpop bops. - Need You is the only one I full on skipped. The chorus is too thin and then that duet ffbkjgfl - Casanova > Simon Says > Lifted > Vintage > Paper Love > Downtown > That's So Us > True Love is Violent > OHDH > Need You

Oh Say Can You See for the acoustic side Put Your Lips Together for the dark/sexy Cherry side Children of the Bad Revolution for the fan preaching side--she could make it woke

You're both annoying

It gives me first track, but then again she probably can't resist making another 6-minute opener. God Bless America or Best American Record are coming

Sissy why are you telling people to fuck off when they respond to your inflammatory shit? You made this bed of off topicness and you're like a point away from full-on ban

Mess, not only is the beat of "Perfect Places" Team 2.0, it also has an empty ass underwhelming second verse too

I guess he must love her and took her to the gas station. Hopefully she picked up a wizard figurine while she was there

The Swinefest demo of MANiCURE is SO good

Me using mod privilege to dead this topic and pretend it never happened

Stop Well hey at least she's starting to build some deserved collabing clout y'know, I'm excited for the recognition

goodnewseveryone

Omg Sober > Perfect Places Its my first time hearing it

Val was flopping a bit in her past few weeks but if she powered through all the acting I think she could've slayed both the makeover and the ball. She just seemed too consistent not to go all the way imo. Nina unfortunately just got cannibalized by the competition though it was strange to see her get that winner's edit in the beginning and then slowly change lol Thinking of the Native American look Valentina would come up with, shaking

We're forgiving the delay because she worked with Giorgio Moroder https://twitter.com/KITTENTHEBAND/status/872508173176848384 Honestly, dream Kitten producer, they better serve a classic

The day she wrote 13 Beaches, confirmed
