A few other tracks do too, such as Billie Bossa Nova, Lost Cause, My Future.. I don't recall if Billie's ever mentioned Amy as an influence, but if so, it definitely shows in this record. I love it x I agree! These tracks definitely gave me Frank album vibes. Would love for her to do something jazzy in the future. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
annedauphine 35,886 Posted August 6, 2021 IDCMN is becoming my second most played and favourite song behind the second part of HTE. I literally haven't even stopped playing it on repeat since two days. The way she says "text" and "and your best friend too" are a lot responsible for this. I fucking love this song. The beginning with the "okay" gives me fat chills as well Edit: I think BBN and Oxytocin are next in order on my list 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

annedauphine 35,886 Posted August 6, 2021 I refuse to be the “I want the old Billie back” bitch because I truly think HTE is the best body of work / some of the best songs she’s ever put out, and I don’t know her enough to know if she’s changed and anyway I like her for her so much but I was relistening to bitches broken hearts and Ocean Eyes and most importantly Six Feet Under and I just know she can sing openly and loud and I want more of this. Which is why I enjoyed the second part of HTE and parts of Oxytocyn that much. I love pretty much every single song she’s ever put out and I got my stan card laminated and framed last Friday but if she sang more openly in some of her future songs I’d be the happiest stan on earth. I would literally implode for a whole album of Billie singing openly for lack of a better world, but if on top of this it’s a more upbeat record, I’m calling the graveyard as of rn to reserve a space. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flamingos 562 Posted August 6, 2021 I can’t wait to see her live next year!! She is too good to be true. I hope there will be a live version of Lost Cause soon, and a concert movie next year. 11 Quote 💜 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glitter Boy 16,556 Posted August 6, 2021 The way I just can't explain how unexpectedly the album took me by surprise. I'm really loving it. So much, as a whole even more. I like it more than her debut for sure. 10 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mintconfetti 478 Posted August 8, 2021 I gave this album another try just now (my second listen) and I don’t know what changed in me but I actually love it? Your Power is still a snoozefest and I dont think I’ll be revisiting Lost Cause that much but NDA sounds so much better in the context of the album. Her single choices were so weird….. My top 3 at the moment: Billie Bossa Nova, Happier than Ever, Oxytocin I still miss Ocean Eyes & Watch Billie but this album is excellent. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
americangothic 1,690 Posted August 8, 2021 Obsessed with the album lately. I agree with everyone saying the single choices were completely strange. I like 'NDA', but as a single is... a choice. 'Lost Cause' was definitely not single material in my opinion. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If she would have released the fan favorites like HTE, track 3, 5 or 8 everyone would have said, ok that‘s it, we already got the highlights? Not easy to be a musician I guess. ? 3 Quote 💜 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
