Paris Sun 6. Sticks and Stones 7. Magic 8. Pipe Dreams 9. Palaces 10. Tap Dancing 11. Right Road 12. Phoenix No Islands of me? -_- Edited January 27, 20178 yr by Red Blooded Man
January 30, 20178 yr Good interview and the performance is surreal !! :wub: On another note, the tracklist that was posted isn't complete, according to wiki, it has three other songs: "Bliss", "Islands of me", "Behind your back". Enjoy! 6Wy6ip16JsQ
January 30, 20178 yr She looks like that One Hit Wonder who sang Two Times :lol: - same styling, art and everythin!
April 3, 20178 yr !!! I bloody loved that song at the time :wub: Should've been massive. Not heard this album yet but I gave Cold Hard Truth a listen and it's v good!
April 3, 20178 yr There seems very little hype, promotions etc for this album, a top 40 placement would be wonderful but i fear it may struggle to make top 75.
April 3, 20178 yr There seems very little hype, promotions etc for this album, a top 40 placement would be wonderful but i fear it may struggle to make top 75. I feel like people are trying to pretend this is just a few years after Loose or something - it's a decade. She's releasing this on her own label and clearly isn't bothered about charting. You can't really expect it to do anything.
April 6, 20178 yr Pitchfork gave it a decent review, which is surprising cos mostly they ignore albums like this http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/22948-the-ride/
April 7, 20178 yr I find the cohesion lacking from the album, my favourite are so far Carnival Games (which should be an obvious single choice), Paris Sun and Phoenix. I am annoyed that she didn't include Islands of Me in her album. :(
April 7, 20178 yr Pitchfork gave it a decent review, which is surprising cos mostly they ignore albums like this http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/22948-the-ride/ Considering they uploaded the video for 'Pipe Dreams' then a semi decent review is expected. She's going for the Solange/Robyn/Carly angle but it's not quite working.
April 7, 20178 yr Paris Sun and Cold Hard Truth standouts for me. Lack of promo now, but she might have some lined up for later in the year. It's not very commercial but could shift some copies if she landed a spot on something like Jools or a Radio 2 interview. Even if later in the year and she just made out it was a brand new release.
April 8, 20178 yr Author I like the album and it's also great that Nelly changes the direction with each release. I mean, she fits in every genre to be honest. I am annoyed that she didn't include Islands of Me in her album. :("Islands of Me" is on the vinyl, but I agree that she should have included in the digital/physical version too.
April 12, 20178 yr This album is so good :wub: Magic and Palaces are my favourites so far. This has really got me interested in her again :wub:
