Track #5 from Lover called "The Archer", which was released on July 23.

Posted by: UltraME! 23rd July 2019, 04:28 PM

Produced by jack antonoff as well supposedly!

I'm hyped 😍

Posted by: John-James 23rd July 2019, 08:28 PM

The title gives me good quality vibes. Plus its Track 5 so it has to be good.

Posted by: legendsglory 23rd July 2019, 09:17 PM

Its out now!!

Posted by: Liаm 23rd July 2019, 09:17 PM

SHE'S JUST DROPPED IT

Posted by: Liаm 23rd July 2019, 09:21 PM

Oh idk if I like it

Posted by: JosephAvery 23rd July 2019, 09:22 PM

It felt like it was building to more than it actually did but the production is lush and it's a great song. Not a single by any means but I like

Posted by: Cqmerqn 23rd July 2019, 09:36 PM

I get Robyn vibes from this.. slightly. Kinda reminds me of ‘Missing U’!

Posted by: Neil 23rd July 2019, 09:37 PM

Oh yes I was expecting it to build up to something huge but it just sort of plateaus in the middle. Nevertheless, it's immediately and easily my favourite out of the 3.

Posted by: John-James 23rd July 2019, 09:44 PM

Hmmm, its a bit of a non-event

Posted by: Jack 23rd July 2019, 09:50 PM

This builds up really nicely and then it's just over. It's nice enough I guess?

I prefer the two singles really.

Posted by: Cqmerqn 23rd July 2019, 09:55 PM

This is the best song of the era tbh

Posted by: UltraME! 23rd July 2019, 10:09 PM

Ahhh I can't listen yet cos I'm out! 😭

Posted by: UltraME! 23rd July 2019, 10:31 PM

It's pretty good but feels more like a grower haha! The middle 8 😍 I agree tho I was waiting for the production to build up to something magnificent haha and it kinda doesn't lol

I feel I'm gonna love this after a few more listens

Posted by: Jonjo 23rd July 2019, 10:38 PM

THIS IS WONDERFUL. OMG.

My fave of the 3! Gorgeous

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 23rd July 2019, 10:46 PM

Lovely track! Dripping in sophistication.

Posted by: jakee 24th July 2019, 12:29 AM

feels more like an interlude!

Posted by: No Sleeep 24th July 2019, 03:36 AM

Wow I love this! Sounds like something from Ingrid Michaelson's Stranger Things inspired album

Posted by: J▲hq 24th July 2019, 05:56 AM

Feels like it could do with a bit more punch, but definitely more like what I want from her and still the best thing from this era so far, I hope this is more representative of the album than the singles.

Posted by: lewistgreen 24th July 2019, 06:35 AM

It’s nice enough, I just don’t like how it builds to... nothing

Posted by: HausofTove 24th July 2019, 08:43 AM

It's easily the best of the three so far! She does this darker more sultry pop (Delicate, Style) better than her gimmicky over the top cheery stuff. More of this!

Posted by: Bjork 24th July 2019, 09:14 AM

just Ok but nothing spectacular

Delicate was much better

Posted by: 365 24th July 2019, 09:23 AM

It's more palatable and more "her" than the other two, especially the abomination that is 'Me'. It's a little dull though, I feel like it builds up to nothing.

Posted by: Medellíam 24th July 2019, 10:44 AM

All I kept thinking was that it sounds like Lana Del Rey singing 'Time After Time'.

Posted by: Jonjo 24th July 2019, 10:49 AM

YES! I thought that too

I love this sfm. I like the structure of it.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 24th July 2019, 12:08 PM

I like this.

I like the production and the way it’s sung.

I kinda get the Robyn Call Your Girlfriend comparassion.

I kinda lolled at the Humpty Dumpty like part though.

Posted by: dannjohn 24th July 2019, 05:54 PM

It reminds me of cyndi lauper’s ‘time after time’.

Posted by: HarryEzra 25th July 2019, 12:38 PM

I actually fell in love with this track!

Posted by: UltraME! 25th July 2019, 05:17 PM

#2 on spotify US *.*
#36 on uk (not on hot hits tho)

This has also given a boost to YNTCD and ME (the latter has climbed like 40 places on spotify us/uk/global <3)

Posted by: Cqmerqn 26th July 2019, 04:33 PM

Looove this, but I really wish that it was Lorde’s song. It would feel a fraction more authentic.

Posted by: UltraME! 26th July 2019, 05:01 PM

Enters at 100 this week *.*

Posted by: UltraME! 26th July 2019, 05:03 PM

Idk I acc feel it'd be a lot more authentic with Taylor, melodically & lyrically it feels so Taylor and track 5's are always known for notoriously being the most authentic/vulnerable track on Taylor's albums

Anyway yep I'm obsessed with this, on repeat 😍 It feels like a mix of Melodrama & delicate ❤️

Posted by: Bré 27th July 2019, 02:13 AM

This is an absolute MILE better than the two singles - obviously very lowkey so I see why it's explicitly 'not a single' but I really like this kind of sound from her.

Not surprised that Jack Antonoff is behind this, it sounds like it could have slotted somewhere into 'Melodrama' indeed.

Posted by: UltraME! 29th July 2019, 04:51 PM

40 in the midweeks ahhh hopefully it holds on!

Ready for this to peak at 45 like delicate 😭

Posted by: John-James 29th July 2019, 08:08 PM

Its on HHUK now too but at the loss of YNTCD which is a bit weird.

Posted by: Algernon Monqueef 11th August 2019, 10:51 PM

Omg

THIS!!

So much better than the singles too But it soes sound a bit too much like Are We Outta The Woods? though.
