Hundred Dollar Bill 21,803 Posted November 6, 2021 10 hours ago, shady said: I recently got UV in the mail so I have a couple of comments. Flipside and Your Girl are not that good. Flipside sounds heavily inspired by Nirvana that it feels like a cover song. I would still sacrifice The Other Woman for Flipside on the album because TOW is boooring af. Your Girl sounds like Guns and Roses when it comes to repetitiveness but I don't see the hate, probably because it's unreleased and not that relevant. The Other Woman is probably top 3 most beautiful vocal performances she’s ever given… she made it her own & flipped the perspective of the lyrics. Absolutely her best cover. 14 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I noticed how her vocals were beautiful and probably in her top 3, but I still don't like the song lmao, just like I hate her vocals in Ride but love the song. 0 Quote I'm fucking crazy, but I'm free Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nirvana has such a distinct lyrical and musical style, and I don't think it matches Lana/Flipside at all. The only part of that song that sounds similar to Nirvana is the guitar, which I do think is inspired by the 90s west coast sound 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only part of that song that sounds similar to Nirvana is the guitar, which I do think is inspired by the 90s west coast sound I can actually imagine him singing in the style like he did in Something In The Way. The lyrics don't matter, it's the familiar sound. No need to overanalyze my comment since it wasn't that deep. It's just that the song sounds too dark, rock-ish and depressing even for Lana's standards and it reminded my of Nirvana's ballads. Lana's "sad and depressing" songs kinda have a peaceful energy while Flipside sounds completely pessimistic. This last sentence is not criticism, just how I felt when listening. 1 Quote I'm fucking crazy, but I'm free Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This last sentence is not criticism, just how I felt when listening. i don't think flipside is depressive, it's very raw sonically & cathartic, but not "depressing", i feel like the original beautiful people demo is her only true "depressing" track. but that's just my opinion even if it did sound like a nirvana song, which i personally don't think it does, i see nothing wrong with that! 3 Quote ─── ⋆⋅ ♰ ⋅⋆ ─── Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fingertips 72,034 Posted November 7, 2021 California is only liked by people because of who produced it. It really is nothing that special, and is my clear least favorite from Norman Fucking Rockwell. If no one had any clue about the production credits, I feel like many more people would feel the same way due to the Jack hate blinders 9 Quote "You can't be a muse and be happy, too. You can't blacken the pages with Russian poetry and be happy." - Blue Banisters Quote I asked Asmodeus (the demon of lust) to make Miley Cyrus suffer. I am not happy with these new developments. After Miley rips off Lana's aesthetic, she bullies Lana into changing her release date. It is infuriating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't love the song, but I do like it bc of the vocals. The production could use a little extra something though imo. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dark Angel 200,982 Posted November 7, 2021 for k/drive by is actually one of my least favorites from sirens, i don't think it's bad or anything, i just feel like a lot of the other tracks are more interesting/intriguing to me, it's still a very great opening track, it's also very direct & confessional 1 Quote ─── ⋆⋅ ♰ ⋅⋆ ─── Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I ADORE California and nothing to do with who produced it. I do love the production, especially the progression of it and how hard the chorus HITS. But mainly due to the lyrical content, WOOOOWEEEEE the whole if you come back to America thing kills me regularly 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
