I would love to be proven wrong, but it doesn’t seem George has a lot of range in his production compared to someone like AG. And I’m worried for his involvement on the new album. 15 minutes ago, White Dress said: This is literal shit omfg I’m so scared for the album now His production is so extremely simplistic and boring, it’s literally just frat boy pool party music here yall go with this sh*t 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

White Hot Forever 4,220 Posted October 19, 2023 It’s not necessarily bad but I just can’t help but feel bored listening to it. I could get behind the Welcome to My Island remix but this just feels like it goes nowhere and like anyone could have sung it. Can she please take some creative inspiration from Caroline? 4 Quote 𐌔Ꝋ𐌋ᕓ𐌄 𐌄𐌕 𐌂Ꝋ𐌀Ᏽ𐌵𐌋𐌀 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OverYourHead 6,250 Posted October 19, 2023 She needs to stop with these Anne Marie/Zara Larsson/Jess Glynne songs, Dirty Sexy Money was the most palatable but when she does these songs it’s so like?? You’re better than this Charles 12 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slayyyngel 1,287 Posted October 19, 2023 The song is cute and basic its basically exactly what a "Charli XCX does a colab with Sam Smith to get on the radio" needs to sound like. I flinched when Sam first came on only because his glaringly loud high pitch note at the beginning is so jarring compared to Charli's whisper singing in the beginning of the track. Later in the track when they layer each other's vocals it actually fits well. Honestly I agree with this being a production problem and Welcome To My Island remix was fun for how different it was from the original but I hope this kind of production doesnt bog down the album. Everything involving A G so far with this 'era' has sounded phenomenal. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charli bby 5,447 Posted October 19, 2023 ITC is a fun between eras song As long as the new album is in the same sonic-sphere as Spring Breakers/Whip It I have no complaints 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Later in the track when they layer each other's vocals it actually fits well. Very much this. When I groaned about the collab several pages back, this is what I was envisioning and exactly what ended up happening - Charli's voice lately has been much deeper, more sultry, more gritty. Sam's is higher, if not operatic at times, and when they came on I winced because it was so SHARP it knocked me out of the song. Their voice is just very, very high. When they were harmonizing together it was totally fine though. 1 Quote 🎶 Art decorates space, but music decorates time 🎶 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KillForLove 13,361 Posted October 19, 2023 the sheer amount of you who are already complaining about the album despite her personally saying, numerous times, that In the City is neither for the album nor does it represent the sonic direction of the album 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bootynugget 2,921 Posted October 19, 2023 I think this song is cuteeee, Sam’s voice is nice on it. Sadly, I don’t think the radio is going to eat it up (will happily accept being wrong) but it’s a nice song to add to both of their discographies. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I can hear what was done with who. It sounds like a demo that Charli made with George, was sent to AG to help with some percussion here and there plus the outro fx. The generic bass drop is very George. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Time 1,772 Posted October 19, 2023 The song is nothing special, but doesn’t cross the “bad” threshold It’s much better than Out Out or Hot In It for example. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
