Charli XCX

[KillForLove 13,361]

Wtf fuck Atlantic, they should’ve just let Bounce be a bonus track & go forward with XCX World anyway

I'm sure it made them nervous about GNO and the other SOPHIE tracks as well

[drewby 9,246]

While Bounce would've definitely been the worst thing to lead the album campaign with, I don't think a bunch of dislikes on YouTube warrants scrapping an entire project. Reading the comments on that video, it was mostly critical of how repetitive/banal the lyrics were

[LonelyHeart 5,980]

Thats so sad because we could get this iconic videoclip performance (vroom vroom mv teas)

 

 

 

 

 

Atlantic shoud've kept Bounce as a buzz single or quickly change the second single choice to CTMP, Bounce is way too experimental for the gp I dont know why they let Charli perform that on a tv show... they're not dumb they did it on purpose so they could cancel the whole album as an excuse (conspiracy theories)

[wahyun 6,906]

with all the bullshit that atlantic puts charli through people still ask why some of us want her out of it......

[halfaxa 111]

you're right. Charli and her producers poured so much hard work into developing this album (at least 80 songs were made for it throughout 2015-2016) just for it all to be canceled.. 

finally someone talking about it.

bounce remains one of her best choruses

 

when you kiss me I melt just like plasticine

Honest question... Why? Why though? Like ok, "Bounce was poorly received by the GP on "XYZ" late-night show, so therefore, CTMP is bad." This is basically what they're saying. Or GNO, or whatever... completely different songs, the entire idea of the album... and which, I mean, GNO ended up getting released anyway?

 

It makes NO sense... absolutely ZERO sense!

ag dying on the floor was basically me last august when we finally got to hear the studio of Bounce (even if it was just a demo) lmao 

[alienprincess 1,972]

I think ag was just portrayed to be passed out... but i guess we will go with the dead concept for some reason? lol..

[lonely lonely night 4,968]

my skinny mind i knew it was the kimmel performance that killed xcx world. that is so sad, could they really not have just chosen something else off the album to test the waters with and scrapped bounce if they didn’t like it? 

also i’m just now realizing i wanna be with you sounds like a dreamer prototype (but better)

[BeautifulAnywhere 5,417]

What’s sad is the fact that Bounce hasn’t been performed since 2017

[Hattie 1,954]

Bounce was doomed to flop. It doesn't have the catchiness of any of the songs on the Vroom Vroom EP. While I don't think Atlantic was right to scrap the entire album, Charli shot herself in the foot with that performance choice. She could've performed, like, any other of the drafted XCX3 songs and it would've been received better.

when i said lying dead it was a hyperbole sis..........

[OverYourHead 6,269]

Her hair looked so much better during the whole N1A era

[xcxboy 4,572]

like this bitch really made the choice to cut her beautiful long hair.... like really

 

[evalionisameme 13,889]

Lmao I just saw charli on a voted best female rappers of all time list, but she has rapped on every released project except sucker so her impact I guess.

What's bizarre is if they knew the type of fan base charli has they know none of her songs would appeal to Jimmy Kimmel viewers anyway, the brandings are totally different you don't go there to perform party songs to middle aged people unless you're a big superstar.

I wouldn’t say that... it’s definitely catchy and fits the Vroom Vroom “brand” to a T... I mean, just my opinion. But I get what you’re saying:.. it’s way less of a lead single and more of a “cult favorite” type of song.

 

It’s just crossed into more obscure territory which is why it didn’t work for TV audiences. But it’s tough because it IS so catchy. It’s just that people have to be open to hearing something left-field and most people have no taste lol, so it just didn’t work.

tears and tantrums would’ve been cute with the rest of xcx3
