This sounds faster than the original for some reason.

The vocals are still wub.gif

It's giving me flashbacks to the 'Dangerous Woman' acapella video with the bunny mask.

My favourite element of 'true story' is the production so am probably not going to rush back to this in a hurry, but wonderful vocals as ever

I actually prefer imperfect to you acoustic to the original I think!

This yes and remix is still an absolute mess though I'm sorry laugh.gif

Yeah this version is not it x. Lol at Fantano thinking this is the superior version laugh.gif (this is the guy who gave a Sexxy Red album a 8 tho, 'eternal sunshine' got a 6. Where has the taste gone kink.gif)

First time hearing this as I actually dipped out of listening on release after seeing the reaction. Fake fan I know laugh.gif

I've only really liked the more R&B songs from Mariah so I didn't have much excitement for this.

Listening now, it really doesn't suit Mariah at all. She's obviously one of the best vocals of all-time but it sounds like they've had to modify her vocals too much to fit on the track. Just sounds like a robot and doesn't mesh well with Ariana at all.

I was feeling a bit sleepy during this listen so I'd take my first impressions with a pinch of salt but my immediate highlights (alongside 'yes, and?' which I'm still bopping to) were 'supernatural', 'eternal sunshine' and 'i wish i hated you', plus to a lesser extent (but can see all 3 being growers) 'we can't be friends (wait for your love)', 'true story' and 'ordinary things'. I think I liked the Troye version of 'supernatural' more than the original but I don't know how much of that is down to Troye's contribution as opposed to it just being a second listen of a song that's a likely grower laugh.gif The a cappella version of 'true story' worked surprisingly well too. Mariah's vocals on the 'yes, and?' remix are ok when she's singing on her own but the parts where they're singing together just sound distractingly poorly mixed to my ears, I can hardly even tell it's Mariah's voice, it just sounds like sonic mush - I'll stick with the original thanks x

The other 4 songs didn't do too much for me on first listen ('the boy is mine' I can see being a grower too but the album got off to a very slow start for me with the first 2 proper songs both being quite boring imo, and I'm not sure I can see myself getting into 'imperfect for you' either unfortunately, I am cursed again to having one of Jade's faves as one of my least faves, 'safety net' all over again kink.gif) - all of her albums have at least a couple of songs I don't really care for though so at least glad there are more songs I liked than not and I think a lot of the songs will grow on me more. Will listen to the album again at the weekend when I'll hopefully be more awake x
