HellaGood 63 Posted September 22 Maybe all of us need to wait for what will no doubt be more interviews and information around the release date before making presumptions about the artistic choices of the album. Based on what I've heard, it seems that Sophie was going for a lot more of a streamlined version of her sound that was closer to product than OOEPUI. My main feedback to fandom is : stop presuming and projecting onto Sophie that she was gonna cut Liz/ because of her political beliefs. It's very clear that Liz was always a gonna be part of the Album in the way the cecelie was part of OOEPUI. Not everyone is as obsessed with everyone's political beliefs as some "fans" are. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It surprises me to think that if you're not related to pc music and read all of these bashings, one would think they hated each other but in reality LIZ and Sophie were friends since 2014 lol they linked up thanks to Diplo. and if you think about it LIZ was one of Sophie's first muses, they loved each other https://x.com/LIZ_Y2K/status/445257475390857217 3 Quote https://www.last.fm/user/botanicalgod Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not everyone is as obsessed with everyone's political beliefs as some "fans" are. “Not everyone is as obsessed with everyone’s political beliefs” is just stupid. I don’t care about LIZ being on the album at all but openly supporting genocide is very different than just having a political belief. Also SOPHIE was a trans woman whose existence has all to do with politics right now including her own music which was about being trans. Would you say someone calling SOPHIE a man is just a different political belief? 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paltargeist 684 Posted September 22 Also if anything Liz gives a little ditzy and not-politically-minded at worst. I think some Stan’s are doing too much based off of a few Twitter likes 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would you say someone calling SOPHIE a man is just a different political belief? This is the literal exact type of fan I'm referring to. Your hypothetical has nothing to do with this conversation because it rests on Transness and gender identity being connected to a conflict in the middle east. Any connection you can form there is tenuous as best. Liz makes bops, get over it. Editing: to add that Why Lies is an absolute banger. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DinahLee 6,192 Posted September 23 9 hours ago, Veinsineon said: My only complaint is I feel time restraints played a big part in why a lot of the songs can feel “half baked” at times, or rushed. When they were played live, sometimes some of these songs would run about 9 minutes…. Like DYWBA and One More Time alone could’ve taken almost an entire side of a record up in terms of space if they were the original lengths. I wonder if that was a problem. I think it all comes down to the fact SOPHIE was constantly switching music while playing it live. I think of this album as somehow a vehicle of what SOPHIE wanted to portray during the live shows as well, especially since that was a big piece of these songs coming together. I also find it interesting that within one of the last interviews/profiles, Ben mentions being aware of how SOPHIE was happy with certain parts but not others of some songs, so I can imagine they might decided to chop up some songs and make sure they'd all flow together. Waiting until friday to finally listen, but it's just bittersweet to imagine the world SOPHIE would build while playing live. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
