June 10, 20188 yr I don't get it :lol: Paris was nazi territory for half that decade and there was revenge against the helpers of nazi's and recovery from the war damage in the other half lmaoo Let's say it wasn't a nice place to be during that time
June 15, 20188 yr I’m not sure if I’m looking forward to this album tbh I want it to be good but I just don’t think it will be unfortunately
June 16, 20188 yr ruoSacIyVfE GVVOLDg-aYI gbi9COmu6G8 ‘Knees’ and ‘Pillow’ sound incredible :wub: this album is gonna be for the Rexhars like me x
June 22, 20188 yr Perched for midnight. Just me then ;o x An ALBUM *.* packed with hooks and there’s a bit of everything but it still feels ...sort of cohesive? 09 Ferrari 08 I’m A Mess 09 Two Souls On Fire (feat. Quavo) 10 Shining Star 10 Knees 10 I Got You 10 Self Control 08 Sad 06 Mine 09 Steady (feat. Troy Lanez) 08 Don’t Get Any Closer 07 Grace 09 Pillow 11 Meant To Be (feat. Florida Georgia Line) this has to establish her as a big pop girl :(
June 23, 20188 yr Author I agree with your summary there Andrew, it's varied and there's enough happening for 14 tracks not to feel too long or full of filler, yet it works together as a cohesive package. 09.0 Ferrari 10.0 I'm a Mess 09.0 Two Souls On Fire (feat. Quavo) 08.0 Shining Star 08.5 Knees 09.0 I Got You 10.0 Self Control 07.5 Sad 07.5 Mine 08.0 Steady (feat. Tory Lanez) 09.5 Don’t Get Any Closer 09.0 Grace 09.0 Pillow 09.5 Meant To Be (Bebe Rexha & Florida Georgia Line) Love :wub:

June 25, 20188 yr My biggest problem with the album is the lyrics - full of pretentious and cringey lyrics, especially 'I'm A Mess' and 'Self Control' :')
June 29, 20188 yr Must I reinforce my point? Shes considered a feature artist on her only ‘solo’ hit & shes also done no UK promo.
June 29, 20188 yr Author Must I reinforce my point? Shes considered a feature artist on her only ‘solo’ hit & shes also done no UK promo. Once again I don't think this is the case, I just don't think people really know who she is yet. Meant To Be is her only UK hit and it felt very much like a fluke - most of the public still have no idea who she is, even if they like Meant To Be. I expected about #25 and it was only about 600 copies behind that so I'm not surprised, but I am disappointed as it deserves much better :(
June 29, 20188 yr She is prtty much a feature in the US, bc it's basically a poppy FGL track, but over here Meant To Be was a fluke becasue it's basically tailored to Heart but is poppy enough with a solid melody so that younger leaning stations went for it too. It's an easy listen that sticks out a bit from what's out atm. Anyway listened to the album and I find it pretty meh, at best. 09.5 Ferrari 09 I'm A Mess 08 Two Souls On Fire 04 Shining Star 06 Knees 09 I Got You 08.5 Self Control 06.5 Sad 03 Mine 02 Steady 03 Don't Get Any Closer 04 Grace 05.5 Pillow 09.5 Meant To Be The songs we've heard are great and there's flashes of good stuff, she is a great pop writers and there's melodies here but all together the songs are just... so dull. The whole album really dragged, especially the last stretch up to Meant To Be. There's no identity, her biggest hit is a country leaning pop track and she's trying to do this whole dark pop thing, idk what it's trying to do really but it's... not for me :lol: I half expected them to go down a more Meant To Be route but tbf they'd have had to start the whole album again for what was probably like the 8th time.

I expected about #25 and it was only about 600 copies behind that so I'm not surprised, but I am disappointed as it deserves much better :( Oops I was expecting about #10 with ~8k, because of Meant To Be and all her collaborations. And my iTunes was messed up and had her as the top pre order above Ariana etc, but I realised that was wrong when she was still at the top when you looked at the pre orders in alphabetical order :’) This is probs my album of the year :lol: Meant To Be does stick out but other than that and maybe I Got You I’d say she is carving out an identity for herself with the dark/urban leaning pop. Surely Self Control has to smash? Edited June 29, 20188 yr by Andrew.
June 30, 20188 yr I think the album was released a bit quickly tbh with not a lot of time for pre-orders which would have been handy during ‘Meant To be’ promo. Expected to debut around 20-25 on billboard with sales of 7-8k. Absolute tragic!
