Charli XCX

Recommended Posts

Watching all you crawl back into Charli's good graces now :mj2:

 

Suck a dick perhaps? As if we haven't been saying "I at least hope Sucker is good" all along. BTR is dire and that's the truth.

 

Thoughts:

- Famous is like a solo version of Fancy, i.e. YASSSSSS

- I Need Your Love is also very Boom Clap with those kinda subdued verses

- Caught in the Middle vid doesn't work bye

- WHERE ARE MONEY AND GOLD COINS THIS ISN'T A FULL RUINATION COME ON

- Sucker is my fave

I have been listening to TR on repeat and here are my impressions. Overall I really like the album.

 

01 Nuclear Seasons - I like this song a lot, but I don't like the Grins intro. Doesn't fit the apocalyptic feel of Nuclear Seasons.

02 You (Ha Ha Ha) - This song is definitely a jam. I lIke whatever that background sample is.

03 Take My Hand - The chord progression is repetitive, but I love the uplifting feel of the chorus.

04 Stay Away - This sounds like an early Madonna song. Her voice when she sings "I knew you were know angel" is a dead ringer for her. The chorus is meh.

05 Set Me Free - bad verse, grand chorus.

06 Grins - very cute love song. I already knew it from the mix tape.

07 So Far Away - strange song, but not bad. Knew it from mixtape.

08 Cloud Aura - annoying chorus, but I really like this song.

09 What I Like - another really cute song.

10 Black Roses - not bad

11 You're the One - not bad

12 How Can I - lowest point of the album.

13 Lock You Up - I wanted this song to be extended on the mixtape, so I'm happy to hear it in full.

I Need Your Love, Caught in the Middle, and Famous are good and better than Boom Clap and Break the Rules. Sucker blows. It might even be worse than BTR. 

 

I guess I can hear a little of a punk influence in I Need Your Love, Sucker and Gold Coins, but I'm getting more of a New Wave and 80s r&b/pop vibe from Famous and Caught in the Middle.

I skip Black Roses, You're the One, How Can I, and Lock You Up. I can only take You (Ha Ha Ha) in small doses. She looks hot in the video though.

@ I agree with you on "Nuclear Seasons". I actually replaced the album version with the original one a long time ago haha. I feel the same about the outro on "Take My Hand".

 

"So Far Away" was always just kinda meh for me, but then one day it just clicked and now I freaking love it. I hope the same happens to you.

 

I would also agree that "How Can I" is the lowest point on the album as well, expect for the fact that "Cloud Aura" is on the album :eek: Like, I still don't like that song. Without it, True Romance would be perfect. I've said it before, but "Cloud Aura" should have died on Super Ultra.

My London Queen lyrics. I need help with like two lines so....

 

Right away from Holloway,

I said, "mum, this isn't a holiday".

Listen up, I ain't coming back,

'til I come through this shack with all gold plaques.

 

See me come, home run-whack

Lock it down the ??? with a baseball bat.

When I'm running on the wrong side of the road,

I feel like JFK.

 

You know, I never thought I'd be living in the USA,

doing things the American way-ay-ay.

I never thought I'd be living in the USA,

living the dream like a London Queen. Hey!

 

 

Now I live in Hollywood.

I can't stop even though I know I should.

It feels so good. Oh Yeah. Woah oh.

When I'm running on the wrong side of the road,

I feel like JFK.

 

You know, I never thought I'd be living in the USA,

doing things the American way-ay-ay.

I never thought I'd be living in the USA,

living the dream like a London Queen.

 

I never thought I'd be living in the USA,

doing things the American way-ay-ay.

I never thought I'd be living in the USA,

living the dream like a London Queen.

 

 

Hey, hey, hey, work!

Hey, hey, hey, work!

Hey, hey, hey, work!

Hey, hey!

 

 

I never thought I'd be living in the USA,

living the dream like a London Queen.

 

I never thought I'd be living in the USA,

living the dream like a London Queen.

 

I never thought I'd be living in the USA,

living the dream like a London Queen.

 

I never thought I'd be living in the USA,

living the dream like a London Queen.

 

 

 

Breaking Up

I need help with the second verse.

 

 

You said you loved me!

(I said what?)

You said you loved me!

(Okay, that's rough.)

You said you loved me!

(I said what?)

You said you loved me!

(Okay, that's rough.)

 

You had an ugly tattoo and fucking cheap perfume.

You couldn't dance, bending over, didn't know what to do.

You had a friend in a band but they're not that cool.

You said you loved me!

(Okay, that's rough.)

 

Everything was wrong with you,

so breaking up was easy to do.

Hated your friends and your family too,

so breaking up was easy to do.

 

Breaking up.

Breaking up!

Breaking up.

 

You said you loved me!

(I said what?)

You said you loved me!

(Okay, that's rough.)

You said you loved me!

(I said what?)

You said you loved me!

(Okay, that's rough.)

 

You tried to pull us apart and make a brand new start.

???

???

You said you loved me!

(Okay, that's rough.)

 

Everything was wrong with you,

so breaking up was easy to do.

Hated your friends and your family too,

so breaking up was easy to do.

 

Everything was wrong with you,

so breaking up was easy to do.

Hated your friends and your family too,

so breaking up was easy to do.

 

Breaking up!
