Posted August 18, 201410 yr Here's the separate single thread for 'Break The Rules', the new single from Charli XCX's upcoming album 'Sucker'. VJQCbE5CWHs -- "Break The Rules" is class. Reminds me of Garbage a little bit!
August 18, 201410 yr Just made a separate single thread for this as it's been confirmed as the new single in various places! Loving this on first listen! :wub:
August 18, 201410 yr Really really like that :wub: Hope this is huge when it's released. If anyone finds an MP3, please chuck it my way, don't wanna keep relying on Soundcloud when I have such a bad connection right now :kink:
August 18, 201410 yr very good and so different to the general musical climate of the moment. hopefully should be pretty big for her. bizarre that she is actually really happening
August 18, 201410 yr I LOVE the verses, but the chorus (such as it is) is a total non starter, which is a shame as up until now I've largely loved her single choices.
August 18, 201410 yr I LOVE the verses, but the chorus (such as it is) is a total non starter, which is a shame as up until now I've largely loved her single choices. This for me. I was loving the chanting lead up to the breakdown but for me, the breakdown is a really big disappointment when it comes to it. May grow as there's bits of I love, much like John but as a whole song, it's not wowing me yet.
August 18, 201410 yr i am a fan, but not so much of the kinda cliche let's break all the rules cos yolo lyrics
August 18, 201410 yr This for me. I was loving the chanting lead up to the breakdown but for me, the breakdown is a really big disappointment when it comes to it. May grow as there's bits of I love, much like John but as a whole song, it's not wowing me yet. The absolutely opposite for me, the part of this song I like the most is the breakdown :wub: Definitely one of my favorite songs released in a little while. Edited August 18, 201410 yr by M¤th
August 18, 201410 yr I'm not sure how on earth that chorus could be described as "massive". There's nothing to it. It's a problem I've been having with a lot of big pop songs of late, I want a MASSIVE chorus and I keep getting these mediocre instrumentals which sound either like bridges or like they just forgot to write a chorus altogether.
August 19, 201410 yr "Break the rules" sounds great on first listen ! Not to sure on the breakdown post-chorus though, it's bit of a non-event.
August 19, 201410 yr I like the build up to the chorus. It's like the best bit of the song but then... nothing <_<
August 19, 201410 yr Has nothing on 'Boom Clap' but I still like it. The after chorus breakdown does sound a bit out of place though with the rest of the song, maybe just take a bit of getting used to.
August 19, 201410 yr I'm hooked on this, it could be contending for one of my songs of the year. I'm glad to see her living up to her potential.
August 19, 201410 yr i am a fan, but not so much of the kinda cliche let's break all the rules cos yolo lyrics Agreed. It reminds me a lot of Icona pop. I do want big things for her, but kind of miss her grimy-pop sound, as with 'What I Like'
August 24, 201410 yr Agree that this is like Icona Pop - which is logical enough I guess. I think the lyrics really restrict it's target audience somewhat.
