See, I've noticed how that is the typical argument from people whose fave album is hifn. Meaning, most of the positive feelings people have towards that album come from the circumstances surrounding its release (the lockdown, fan involvement, how quickly it was conceived) and not the music itself.

 

pink diamond, forever, claws and visions are priceless songs, but the rest are just fine

Exactly. People prefer hifn because there was little to no label say and Charli did not really have the time to sit on material and let it simmer. She was purely pulling music out of her ass with no second thought, which lead to a fantastic time capsule project. But not a sustainable way to pave the way forward in music. She’s still keeping that candid approach to her writing even now!!

Wasn’t the ? over two words also? It’s possible she was trolling really hard and this may actually be the case… 

 

????? ???????? literally is spring breakers 

[blameitonme 15,673]

charli is one of my fave albums of hers, but it’s tainted by trying to be too much like pop 2 and the bioyl/1999 sneaks

 

it has some of her best moments on it imo

 

but the REAL number 1 album is number 1 angel 

[lonely lonely night 4,968]

i hate the dress

 

pink and blue are really not the colour palette i was getting for this era, von dutch sounds very yellow to me. otherwise it is cunt

[Chorli Xbox 8,844]

y’all forgetting the masterpiece that’s called Silver Cross 

[White Dress 6,901]

Y’all gonna hate me for this but I cannot stand Next Level Charli… something about the snare sound is just so off to me. It’s mixed like doodoo

So the spotify 7" that was up for a bit kind of confuses me.. it looks like they tried adding a clear plastic filter on top insinuating that the vinyl would come shipped in a clear PVC sleeve, but they usually only do this for a picture disc, but the mock-up they posted wasn't a pic disc? Do we think they're still going to be in a clear PVC sleeve? 

 

I made a rough mockup with the single art 

Spoiler

 

[White Dress 6,901]

She’s kind of overdoing it with the teasing, this better be a 4 minute+ epic and not a little 2:16 verse-chorus-verse-chorus-outro situation because I fear we’ve heard the whole thing at this point 

[OverYourHead 6,269]

So much promo for such shite sounding song, this WhatsApp thing is jarring too

It could be possible, I thought it was just a placeholder for when the image got released or finalized tbh

i need this song to be an absolute 5 minute eargasm of just rave sleaze insanity after all this promo.

 

also on the charli discourse, i do find the album to be jarring (Shake It I'm looking at you) but some of its songs are my all time xcx favourites... 

Next Level Charli, Gone, Thoughts, I Don't Wanna Know, Official

I need everyone to understand that Charli is not the one stretching out the teasing, it's Atlantic. We've seen how fast Charli works. When she's left to her own devices (pop2, hifn, etc) she gets out music VERY quickly. The label are the ones who decide when to start promotion, when to drop teasers, when the single is released etc. They want the song to go "viral" before it's released. It's just a numbers game to them, they could not care less about how exciting a rollout is for fans. If you're annoyed with the rollout process, direct your frustrations to people at the label. Charli shouldn't be the one catching strays for the release schedule that her label is implementing.

Hearing the same snippet over and over is kinda annoying, I’m afraid when we listen to the full song hearing it again will feel weird and take us out of the experience…

[Crimson and Clover 22,505]

It would be fine without that ridiculous phone thing like what’s up with that lol? Just getting texts of TikTok’s 

[Ceremonials 2,894]

we've never had a spontaneous out of nowhere fast release from her because she doesn't know how to keep a secret. like even her getting out things fast is heavily teased beforehand. like she doesn't know how to be elusive and that's fine.
