Veinsineon 74,680 Posted July 12 Honestly, as horrible and painful as the song is, still better than anything Sabrina Carpenter has ever made. We need to start carrying the same energy people love to have for Katy for every mediocre, shitty release nowadays Taylor, Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, Tate McRae all of these mediocre flavorless girls, releasing Tik Tok music.... Katy is obviously jumping on the bandwagon here... but somebody else driving the cart.... Like the nuance is that it’s better than a jack Harlow, or any other flavorless United States radio pop music, but it’s not a good song at all. And I’ve already heard it on the radio twice today. I don’t know if everybody knows this, but in the west, it’s usually the shittiest and most simple mediocre songs that get played five times a day on the radio because labels are able to pay for promotional slots. the only reason the song might be semi-successful is the sheer amount of payola and label foot work being done. It sucks that she’s beyond sold out with this latest move. Sue me, but I believe that the witness era was much too ahead of its time, and all of the concepts and deconstruction of poppy enigma that happened almost feels like it was just thrown to the wind. I know witness is not the most well received album in history, but the message is good it’s clear and it’s cohesive. What we are now beholding is somebody who has no other ideas than to cater to what is currently selling. It sucks to see somebody who used to be as impactful and iconic as Katy Perry fall so far from Grace and still be denied ever doing the right things, the right way ever again. Because she really CAN do the right things. Some of the snippets sound great, but she wanted to cause a stir with this lead single and I'm not exactly okay with the whole reason. Like it's something that didn't need to be givin' more credence and whatever Katy is gonna get flack for, it's going to be 10x hotter of a topic. She knew that and she knew the conversation wouldn't be drowned out and that's why i'm really conflicted about the lead. Bad taste for the beginning of the era, complete shill move. And it was in no world going to "make music love katy again" or anything.. 11 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t want to spend too much time on it because tastes will always differ, but imo Sabrina can get away with it because she’s self-aware in her own cringe - to where’s she’s lauded for being “so unserious” whereas what Katy is doing feels very serious and it feels like she’s not in on the joke. Hence, the song feeling cringe. 2 Quote ⊹ (:̲̅:̲̅:̲̅[̲̅:♡:]̲̅:̲̅:̲̅:̲̅) ⊹ 𓊔 I took the miracle move on drug 𓊔 ⚕️ The effects were temporary ⚕️ ⊹ (:̲̅:̲̅:̲̅[̲̅:♡:]̲̅:̲̅:̲̅:̲̅) ⊹ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
