Halsey

[American Money 681]

Wow I never noticed how much she sounds like Lizzy from MS MR, if MS MR changed their production to what Halsey's it'd be hard to tell the difference

I wonder if she's releasing another song!!

My best guess would be that it's Coming Down because it hasn't been officially released yet, but it'd be cool if it were a new song

I always thought the same thing. I think Halsey is a bit smoother/easier on the ears though.

They sound nothing alike. Is it just me?

Since Lanaboards was gone I had no where to talk about how try-hard her song New Americana is least favorite so far.

Why try-hard?

[nowornever 392]

I honestly love it. It's a lot better than the demo, and the demo was my favorite Halsey song. And it's being received really well, sooo

Do you know where I can hear the demo?

Why try-hard?

The lyrics are what bother me, they just seem so cringeworthy. Especially in the chorus with the whole We are the New Americana, high on legal marijuana. Raised on biggie and nirvana etc. The song feels like it's trying too hard to be some outsiders anthem and the overall effect just comes up flat for me. Perhaps it'll grow on me, but my first ten listens or so I get the impression she's trying too hard when she doesn't need to.

I like that demo version more than the final one. I wonder why it was changed

I like the new version more, it's very spacious, it has more depth if that makes sense

I'm guessing it was changed so it could fit the overall sound of Badlands

[KillForLove 13,361]

I hate the new version, the production just sounds very cheesy and I hate the snare in the pre-chorus. It makes it sound like its trying too hard to be an "anthem" which I didn't get from the demo

I felt like this the first time I hard the demo. I just ended up finding the chorus very catchy and it got stuck in my heard really easily. As the song grew on my I noticed (imo) the verses are really clever and have a decent amount of depth in the wordplay she uses (I can see how the baseline message could come off as trying too hard). I do agree that the chorus comes off as very catered to the "I shop at urban outfitters and I'm not like most girls at my high school because I smoked a cigarette once" but I feel like the song (again particularly the verses) have some decent writing in them and I can't deny that the song is really catchy.

I prefer the demo, because the production on this new version kinda sucks, but it's a good song so whatever.

I think someone said she couldn't clear a sample so she had to re-do it?

[luckyonewithoutyou 1,929]

Did anyone hear Drive while it was leaked? I only heard a snippet, but it was very different instrumentally imo

[fessle 730]

She should've just released Colors cuz that song is ACE
