I'm not sure if I like it or not, but you can tell she wanted a taste of Melanie's nachos

 

Even hired the same producer

God forbid artists work with the same producers

i like it 

 

i mean it’s not groundbreaking but it’s a fun pop song idk what yous was expecting  the last 45 seconds are VERY froot reminiscent 

[AllForYou 1,852]

the intro reminds me of 'all around the world' by ATC. 

I don't hate it but I don't love it, it's cute/enjoyable and I suspect it might be a grower. I wish she used her lower register to give a bit more contrast, it feels a bit one note from verse to pre-chorus. I actually prefer the chorus to the verses, I just feel like sometimes she works better with a co-writer to edit lyrics and maybe this could have helped here, but there's nothing egregious that makes me want to make an edit like purge the poison's verses. the concept is cute too! personally I find it relatable.

Yall need to start accepting we wont have another Froot / Family Jewells… she moved on from that kind of songs and now just releases basic pop (like Electra Heart wasnt that and u still love that) 

 

its not the best song ever or something groundbreaking… but for what she has put out lately i think its pretty good. On Ancient Dreams she was trying too hard to reheat the nachos

This forum is truly only filled with us needing to accept that our favorite artists will never peak again

Nah, not enough auto tune

lowkey yeah that makes more sense, take away the vocal pitching and it would absolutely fit on there

it kind of would though. change some of the lyrics and the progression of some bits and it would be a froot outtake

eh, don’t know if this argument makes a ton of sense - you can’t really group all of basic pop together as a whole. pretty broad spectrum there. comparing electra to what marina’s releasing now is like comparing future nostalgia to an ava max album. 

 

just the lyricism between then and now is what really does it for me. valley of the dolls for instance, so incredibly gorgeous! sex yeah, genuinely a little thought provoking, it’s progressive without being corny! 

 

the production too! those first three albums had so many little things in the background that i would regularly put on instrumentals to study to, but a lot of the instrumentals nowadays are kinda just really generic (besides ancient dreams which actually had some interesting choices!)

What's the song length?
