pin up galore 19,040 Posted May 26, 2022 I truly don't think there is such a thing as an overproduced song if it aint loud and blocking out every other earthly noise I don't want it anyways DF is so good playing it alongside Guardian, Legends, Pray for Rain, DL, and One Way to Heaven and it's essentially the 2015 EP of the year 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lonely lonely night 4,968 Posted May 26, 2022 this is what pisses me off about stan culture, people who share any critique of the artist’s work are automatically labelled as haters. like i’ve been listening to sky since she released one, i’ve been a fan for over a decade. i support her and want her to succeed, and i like don’t forget. do i need to lie and say the 9 year wait hasn’t been a little bit anticlimactic? as long as people aren’t attacking her character, because obviously nobody has the right, then there’s nothing wrong with having an opinion. i’ve said this previously but as much as i do really enjoy don’t forget, it is admittedly a bit bland for a comeback single. she had years to work out this release and it was still a nightmare. i really hope after this vulture interview that she can get this album done and release it within the next 12 months 18 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But we have to also acknowledge anything she does will be anticlimactic considering there's such a huge mystique that surrounds her and this album. She's been in too deep for 5 years 11 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She's been in too deep for 5 years i agree, but it's frustrating because i also think don't forget had the potential to be exactly what was needed if there were some chorus, lyric, and production changes. i was so hyped for it based on the teaser and the snippets she posted in the past, the final product sounds like a completely different song 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furor Poeticus 16,360 Posted May 26, 2022 Pitchfork is trash THE AUDACITY to call it bland after one of them heard DF before anyone else on the occasion of the cover story they did with her in 2019. If it were bland, why would they write about it in the first place? 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SalvaWHORE 34,066 Posted May 26, 2022 I dont think the song is bland but honestly this is no where near Downhill Lullaby. 4 Quote @WHORE OF TROPICO ⇨ @SALVAWHORE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hotshot2am 18,791 Posted May 26, 2022 I think on Apple Music it's the Dolby Atmos mix that sounds off. Her voice is drowned out and certain instruments are way too loud, e.g, at 0:53 or 2:42. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Off To The Races 2010 demo pls 19,336 Posted May 26, 2022 I'm sorry but I don't find any flaw on this track. It is a grower and the transitions might be unexpected, but that ain't a bad thing but a good one as it feels as an unique pop song. Also, lyrically is MORE powerful and great than DL if you actually compare each other 9 Quote "ser bella me dio privilegios, pero ser astuta me dio poder" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People were complaining about it before when it was just the high end lossless file they had available. IMO it sounds fine 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
