Charlottexseax 7,943 Posted November 4, 2021 the fact that even Positions, which was clowned by everyone for how short the songs were, it longer than this 20 minutes ago, brandon said: ok tbh yeah i agree i was hoping for at least 40 minutes but i’m assuming she was aiming for the most accessible, playlistable, radio play-able songs possible and as she said, the sweet spot when writing those is 2:30-3mins No offence but this excuse doesn't make sense considering she never charts even with shorter songs lol edit: I know GO peaked at #44 in UK and at #164 in the BB Global 200 but those numbers are not worth cutting songs in half tbh... 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ceremonials 2,894 Posted November 4, 2021 i know that one vinyl is *exclusive* but i wonder if she'll have any limited variations coming out through other vendors. i wish it was actual blood splatter but i’m still very happy with the color 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redbullandcigarettes 159 Posted November 4, 2021 the comparison with positions should make it evident enough that length doesnt play all that much into if a song is good or not, good ones doesnt even have a bridge and i still think its a great pop song! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's undoubtedly a great tune! I'd just love it even more if it was 30 secs longer but I'll stop my complaining ass and be ready to bop to this short af banger-filled album! 2 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OverYourHead 6,269 Posted November 4, 2021 I mean I wasn’t expecting a Pop 2 level sound but …seriously? come on charli 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LunaeManifestum 8,305 Posted November 4, 2021 I love this song its very chill, I've never seen her doing something like this and its very nice ps: some stems of New Shapes (in the verses) reminds me a lot of 1, 2, 3, Dayz Up by Kim 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
palemoonbaby 15,103 Posted November 4, 2021 Is she serious with that almost all tracks are under 3 minutes and half of them are barely 2 minutes? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ExoticBrick 436 Posted November 4, 2021 I feel like there will be a deluxe for this. Considering Atlantic made her put 1999 on Charli, I'm sure we'll see OUT OUT & maybe even Spinning on a deluxe. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

venicebitch 14,339 Posted November 4, 2021 New shapes is an interesting choice for a 2nd single... its pop and its kinda catchy but its not going to get any airplay at all. I was expecting something more powerful tbh 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adrift 4,813 Posted November 4, 2021 1 hour ago, Charlottexseax said: Pop 2 is almost 10 minutes longer and has less tracks... I'm not saying every song should be Track 10, but why not have one song standout and be, IDK, 5 minutes? Give us a good instrumental breakdown, something omg songs can be short but complete i promise itll be ok the chorus of good ones is an instrumental breakdown same w new shapes arguably 4 Quote X----into me, into you----X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
