18: Like Em Young
Average: 6.5


They’re just in love; Nick F1 (8.5), JosephStyles (8.5)

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen; dandystar (-1), mr_aly (4), Nelly. S (5)

In last place is ‘Like Em Young’. A bit of a meh moment for me, but I don’t hate it but it can be a bit repetitive. It received the only -1 of the entire rate from Dandystar, if it hadn’t been for this, it would have been 3 places higher in the rate. But no great loss.

17: Paradise
Average: 7


They’re just in love; Nelly S. (10), Nick F1 (8.5)

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen; Ultraviolence1989 (5). Mr_aly (5),

‘Paradise’ manages a 7 average, despite coming as low as 17. It sounds a bit like a Sigma produced track and really doesn’t show Tove Lo at her most creative, but overall it’s not a bad song at all.

16: Crave
Average: 7.03


They’re just in love; toxic_air (10)

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen; barbaric_dan (5)

Very little improvement in the score here. I’d probably say ‘Crave’ was my least favourite QOTC track and am glad it’s not on the UK edition.


15: Over
Average: 7.07


They’re just in love; J▼hnkm (9), Nelly. S (9)

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen; Ultraviolence1989 (5), Toxic_air (5)

Another very slight increase in scores for ‘Over’, which is a nice little power ballad that I find somewhat forgettable, but listening to it now, it has some power behind it, I’d certainly have upped my 6 to a 7 for it.

Given that Over is the best Tove Lo song, this rate is already void. Well done BuzzJack.

If you'd rated it'd probably have jumped a few places, since only 16 people actually did.

^ no. It's amazing. There's a lot of filler on this album you can't possibly prefer to like em young? really?

I wish I'd noticed this was happening!

I would say 'This Time Around' is fairly filler-ish, but 'Like 'Em Young' is the worst on there easily.

"Like Em Young" is kinda eh.

Kinda impressive for most of the album to measure over a 7 average, really speaks about the quality of the album.

14: The Way That I Am
Average:7.35


They’re just in love; toxic_air (9)

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen;Hurricane (5), dandystar (6)

This didn’t really many bad scores, but didn’t get any scores higher than one 9. It’s actually a very decent song. The fact that it’s as low as #14 with a 7.35 just goes to show the strength of the album.

13: Timebomb
Average:7.63


They’re just in love; barbaric_dan (11), Cody Slayberry (9), Liаm (9), Spinning Adam (9), dandystar (9), JosephStyles (9)

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen;Hurricane (4.5), Joe (5), Nelly. S (6), Nick F1 (6.5), toxic_air (6.5)

Possibly the biggest surprise of the rate for me here. ‘Timebomb’ not top 10. I expected 4/5/6 for this when I opened the rate. It was at one point a single, but I don’t know what happened there? Did it just flop? I certainly am not too upset about this charting so low here, as I’ve always found it rather underwhelming - and the talky parts very irritating, but looks like some members agree with me.

Like 'Em Young is not the worst thing on this album. Aside from being a worthy way to live your life, it's stronger than at least 3/4 other tracks (most of which have already gone out too, to be fair).

'The Way That I Am' deserves to be higher, it's pretty stunning (although lyrically clunky in the chorus, but I'll just put that down to mistranslation/broken English)

That's reassuring to know that, whilst I didn't vote, I'm not quite as alone as I thought I was in thinking Timebomb is just a mess.

12: This Time Around
Average:7.67


They’re just in love; dandystar (10), barbaric_dan (9)

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen; mr_aly (5)

Another decent track, which you couldn’t say much that’s too negative, but it just doesn’t stand out as some of the far stronger tracks that have charted above it here.

11: My Gun
Average:7.78


They’re just in love; toxic_air (10), Cody Slayberry (9), JosephStyles (9),

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen; barbaric_dan (5)

Just missing out on the top 10 is ‘My Gun’, which still receives a fair amount of love from Buzzjack. ‘My Gun’ is the album opener (not including The Sex intro), and a good one at that. Perfectly sets the tone for the rest of the album. I find myself listening to ‘My Gun’ quite a lot and I always enjoy it, despite regretfully giving it a mediocre score myself.
