May 15, 20205 yr 'i finally understand' is an absolute banger, where is the love for it x I've been into all 3 of the singles so I think I am going to check out the rest of the album, first album from her that I'll be listening to in full ;o
May 15, 20205 yr Charli was great but there were 2/3 filler songs (which isn't bad at all, my criteria for a good 15 track album is normally like a 10/15 strike rate), not one song isn't essential here. We are not worthy of you Charlotte :cheeseblock:
May 16, 20205 yr This is truly the pop record of the year so far. Two Lips could quite literally never.
May 16, 20205 yr Top 5 on Apple Music albums! :o Even with no physicals she must surely be in with a hope of top 10 officially with that :o
May 16, 20205 yr Wow this album really ends on a strong note with 'visions' *.* definitely my favourite of the album tracks although 'i finally understand' is still my fave song from it overall. 'pink diamond' (idk if it's just the title swaying me but this feels like her really going full Hannah Diamond) and 'detonate' (mainly for the second half of it) are my other standouts among the album tracks but I did at least somewhat enjoy every song on here which is impressive for an artist who until very recently was super hit or miss for me ~ Quick one listen rating cos why not 7.5 pink diamond 8.5 forever 7.5 claws 6 7 years 8 detonate 6.5 enemy 9.5 i finally understand 6.5 c2.0 7 party 4 u 7 anthems 8.5 visions 'anthems' could have probably been one of my standouts too, it has one of the best instrumentals on here along with 'visions' and 'detonate', but her vocals are a little bordering on annoying in some parts of it which does drag it down a little oops ~
May 16, 20205 yr Some of her tracks have been popping up on my recommended new music lately, and they are really not what I expected from her but I'm really liking this new, non-hit chasing direction. claws and i finally understand are really great *.*
May 18, 20205 yr When was she chasing hits though? I feel like the only time she sort of has been in the last few years is by adding the (really lazy and pointless) Lizzo feature to Blame It On Your Love? Which obviously didn't work at all because most people still preferred Track 10 anyway! Can't get enough of this, will definitely end up as one of my favourites this year. As if she's given us this, Charli, Pop 2, Number 1 Angel, Focus & No Angel etc. all in the last few years. INSANE.
May 18, 20205 yr This is a lot better than I thought it'd be (not because of Charli but because of the circumstances). It's like a cute younger sister for POP 2. Special mention to the spoken part in 'Enemy'... that gives me goosebumps. A great listen and a huge clap for her going to this extra mile to create music in lockdown. Her work ethic is 10/10 :clap:
May 19, 20205 yr This massively exceeded my expectations considering how quickly it was made. It all flows so well without sounding too samey Pink Diamond, Anthems, Visions and Detonate were the stand outs for me
May 21, 20205 yr Anthems is becoming one of my favourites :wub: I’d say Enemy, Claws, Forever, 7 Years, Pink Diamond and I Finally Understand are my other faves (so 7/11 tracks on the album :’)). The only one that isn’t essential for me is ‘party 4 u’ but it’s still enjoyable. I love her so much but I need to get into her pre-Pop 2 stuff more, I know some but not enough!
