Coney Island King 26,129 Posted July 27, 2022 Yeah Hold The Girl is good. Very late 90’s/early 2000’s sounding British pop. A bit Eurovision too, she seems to be going very unapologetically campy pop this era, more on the nose than her debut (which also had elements of that). 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yet another single cover that's better than the album cover and in this one there's someone actually holding the girl what the fuck Rina, i'm probs using this one instead. 3 hours ago, True Romance said: album is delayed 2 weeks until Sept 16th but she said to make up for it she’s adding another single Does anybody else hate these mini delays? Like, the album was already put in platforms, why is the delay? When it's a couple months is understandable they changed something important, but in this case... girl why 4 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Life 3,983 Posted July 27, 2022 Hold The Girl grew on me really quick tbh. This Hell next to it on the track list really nightlights what absolute trash that song is tbh. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not iconic in any way, just strange for the Sake of being strange and ugly (just like Björk's Utopia cover lol) 4 Quote Hikaru Utada • BANKS • Rina Sawayama • Aly & AJ • MARINA • Björk • Kate Bush • Marion Ravn • Carly Rae Jepsen • Hilary Duff • Charli XCX • The Cardigans • Mitski • Phoebe Bridgers • Allie X • Caroline Polachek • Meg & Dia • Dia Frampton • Olivia Lufkin • Poppy • Grimes • Melanie Martinez • Lana Del Rey • Bat for Lashes • Ayumi Hamasaki • Paramore • Hayley Williams • Evanescence/Amy Lee • ACO • LIGHTS • Alexz Johnson • Avril Lavigne • Florrie • Flyleaf/Lacey Sturm • Tove Lo • Sky Ferreira • HANA • Daine • Foxes • CHVRCHES • Lorde Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jvcx 3,644 Posted July 28, 2022 I've been holding back from preordering the album bc This Hell is pretty much just okay for me atm and I've only listened to Catch Me In the Air probs once. SAWAYAMA was my most listened album of 2020 and I love it so much so I just don't feel like the quality of the first two singles have met my expectations. But oh damn I am loving the title track so I hope the rest of the album will continue on that path and be stronger than what we have for now. And yes the cover for This Hell should've been the album cover imo or the pic used in one of those new t-shirts. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yooo I hate all three Hold the Girl, Born This Way and Utopia artworks mentioned by @EXODUS they have their own way of horrendousness and while I lowkey live for it, I also would've preferred a completely different artwork for each. 1 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pin up galore 19,078 Posted July 28, 2022 Naur gaga as a motorcycle with BORN THIS WAY in that bold metal font is high level camp and I've grown to love it anyways y'all im getting kinda scared for this record This Hell was decent for like 3 days then the lyrics were too bad for me to consciously continue streaming then Catch Me in the Air was... not good Hold the Girl is my fav so far but even then it doesn't hold a candle to any of the just decent tracks off SAWAYAMA LUCID really changed her didn't it where did Dynasty into XS into STFU! into Comme de Garcons Rina goooo 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
