drewby 9,246 Posted September 25, 2014 Wires by Athlete was my anthem like age 14. Charli's voice is way too struggly on her cover I feel the same about I Want It That Way, she was just pitchy all-around especially the key change in "just wanna hear you say"...that was past her range 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iseeyouupsidedown 931 Posted September 25, 2014 Have you heard the Daytrotter version? Yeah but I don't like it as much... It doesn't sound the same as the lower quality one. I actually like how raspy and desperate it sounds. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PrettyBaby 2,219 Posted September 25, 2014 btw has anyone read this yet? [...] http://www.nylonmag.com/articles/nylon-october-2014-it-girl-issue-girl-we-heart-charli-xcx "It’s punk-inspired. It’s definitely still a pop album, but there are moments where it is raw and wild. I’m commenting on the music industry, the female body, and money, whereas before I mainly spoke about love. This record definitely feels better informed.” This actually gives me hope. I actually trust that she knows what she's doing. Whether I like the end result or not is a whole separate issue. I never sold out as a screenwriter... and I never sold a single script :'( 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iseeyouupsidedown 931 Posted September 25, 2014 Well, we should know if Sucker sucks or not soon since she's starting her US tour in 2 days. But who knows. Maybe she won't play anything really new now since she pushed the album back so far... If her career really launches how I imagine her label plans it to, she will likely do another tour in the summer and play all the new songs. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heartbreakhigh 738 Posted September 25, 2014 I hope she plays some new songs. I can not deal with a 12 song setlist. 4 days for me 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

heartbreakhigh 738 Posted September 25, 2014 I was just watching some old videos of Charli and the first 40 seconds of this video is so funny https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qWe92C2bPo "I said DOES ANYONE FUCKING KNOW THIS FUCKING SONG!!" 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
comeintomybedroom 8,657 Posted September 26, 2014 "I said DOES ANYONE FUCKING KNOW THIS FUCKING SONG!!" "I WROTE THIS FUCKING SONG! IT'S BIG IN GERMANY" Lol the crowd at this festival was so dead. This was the only song that mildly hyped up the crowd. I remember when she performed Take My Hand then, she was all "THIS SONG'S ABOUT TAKING EXTACY!" 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
