literally every artist claims an album/song that's clearly about an ex isn't about them lol. it's to not stir up intentional drama. 

 

she ate him up on powder and nymphology tho :oprah3:

A common misconception is that Melanie claimed nothing on the album is about Oliver! Moon Cycle is the only song she publicly denied to be about him. She still asked fans to not send him hate though.

 

I'm like 99% sure Evil is about their relationship. It has similar lyrics to songs like Absorb, Under the Desk, Paper Cut etc, which were all recorded in early 2020 while she was dating Oliver. Except those 3 I just mentioned are about keeping the relationship going and wanting things to get better, while Evil is an actual break-up song

 

Melanie even confirmed that Evil is about "the last relationship" she was in before Verde, so unless she had some unknown mystery boyfriend after Oliver, I seriously doubt it's not about him.

 

Spoiler

For example

 

Paper Cut (2020):

Quit calling me up and putting me down, you're breaking my smile and making my frown.

"It's all in your head", you tell me instead. When you acting up, I speak and I'm dead.
 

Evil:

You called the other day, I stayed away. I left your shit on read four times today.

Said it's all in my head, whenever I spoke my truth.

The way I listened to this album multiple times a day for weeks, then resold my concert tickets so I could hang out with my boyfriend instead and listen to Speak Now TV, and now I never listen to Portals :smokes:

 

I was so obsessed with Tunnel Vision and I re listened the other day and it was kinda cringe.

It's a beautiful life, remember that too, for me.

Cringe?? I listen to it almost every other day :crai:

Tunnel Vision

Milk of the Siren

The Contortionist

Are all in my daily rotation playlist

Though I haven't really touched the playlist in a few weeks :eek3:

My most played are Pluto, Powder, Void, and Womb in that order, but I'd play most of the other tracks more if the lyrics were tweaked a little(some are too repetitive or corny for me) and the production was better.

A full studio version of K+OLs Faerie Soiree and Tunnel Vision would've made Portals a 10/10 though! :hair:

The tracks that leaked prior to the album gave me hope , it’s mostly the visuals that are ruining the era imo. 
 

Dragon’s Blood, Mother of Pearl, Fingers Crossed and the other Death deserved to be released.
