I can only agree that it's really raw and brutally honest. Beautiful.

I’m not keen on this.
After releasing bops I Believe and Solo as a featuring artist, she serves up this boring shit. What is the point? |

You do realise that not every single song in this world has to be happy and upbeat? This song is so raw, emotional and shows her struggles recently. That is the point. |

The ironic thing is, this is the most important song she's done since 'Skyscraper'. But ofc, I wouldn't expect you to get that.
I'm sure you're just saying things for the sake of saying things and trolling but just in case... This isn't about you not liking the song (that's fine, it's your opinion), this is about your inability to see things objectively. I'm pretty sure this is gonna connect on such a deep and personal level with SO many people who have relapsed before. THAT is the point of the song. Edit: Obvz @ Tombo.

But this is much more of a song with a more meaningful message than just being addicted to drinking. This is her admitting that after 6 years of not drinking, she relapsed and is feeling so much remorse and guilt for doing so. It's also a topic that needs more mainstream attention. My post was more in reply to you saying "what is the point?" and basically brushing it off just coz you don't like it Hollywood Undead have done songs about relying on alcohol and they’ve connected with me a lot more than this has Also Sia’s Chandelier is about being addicted to drink/drugs and that is a song I like, although Demi’s song is obviously a lot more stripped back so maybe it’s not a good comparison I just find Sober very dull and boring , maybe it is the sort of song that you have to hear a few times

I just thought she was gonna come back with a bang as she tweeted recently about moving on from the last album and Solo was out so I thought she would follow on in a similar sort of way. I didn’t realise she had relapsed for the first time in 6 years and I wasn’t even sure if it was her current situation or a song about what happened in the past. She must be going through a lot mentally at the moment |

Completely agree, I'm sorry but I can't see how you can dismiss a song like this... It's not about it being a "bop", this shows her as much more of an artist with a song that means something... There are so many meaningless "bops" in the chart, her coming back with something that is important to her is so needed in the current climate. It's something raw and personal to her and she probably felt better saying it through song. She probably didn't think "oh let's make it a banger so that people who can't be bothered to listen to a message think my new era is starting off well", the "bops" that keep her name out there as a feature allow her to do this with her solo stuff. Collabs were never gonna indicate the whole album anyway... I don't see why there is a need to dump the contrary opinion with very little justification all the time because it comes across as if you don't actually have much conviction in your opinion.
Not liking the song for it being not your thing, fine, ofc there is not going to a universally loved song no matter how important the message is. But it's nothing short of completely ignorant to say the song has no point because it isn't the "bop" you wanted when she is opening up about something that is probably the hardest thing for her to talk about. |

I realised I never posted about this when it came out but after a few listens to f***, this song is beautiful and powerful. I love it when Demi goes really raw and vulnerable. I don't mind that sometimes she releases these type of singles because we don't need bops all the time. She has a voice and message that she brilliantly showcases in these type of songs.

I did think it was strange that she wasnt performing ‘skyscraper’ on the tour (albeit its essentially her biggest single id say) but perhaps she has slight guilt performing it...

But this is a nice enough song, i prefer ‘stone cold’ on the emotional ballad front though but at least shes not screeching on this song as she seems to do nowadays
