Posted November 4, 20204 yr The listening party concept returns to the Ariana AF TONIGHT after hugely successful ones earlier in the year! We want to celebrate the release week of Ariana's 6th studio album 'positions' by listening to it together in unison as a forum. It's simple, at 8:30pm UK time tonight hit 'play' on your preferred platform and comment along in this thread. I'll be providing a YouTube embed of each song as it begins playing too - so if you are only able to join part-way through then you can catch up with us. Here is a link to the 'thank u, next' party back in June for a feel of how they work. Here are some handy links for tonight: SPOTIFY APPLE MUSIC YOUTUBE playlist?list=PLojpqoibx6qK9iM1ZSn0aaJuhOnfss7eq See you later :cheer:
November 4, 20204 yr Author My 3 month trial of Spotify premium ran out today so I've just upgraded to having it full-time in time for this :cheeseblock: Does tonight work okay for people? Really excited for this :cheer:
November 4, 20204 yr Author A little over an hour to go! I’m warming up by... listening to ‘positions’ in the bath first :lol: #streampositions
November 4, 20204 yr I think Shut Up is my least favourite track on the album but it's still certainly a nice way to start. The harmonising in the 'so dumb' bit sounds so good :wub:
November 4, 20204 yr PLAYING :cheer: The album is growing on me with each listen, so I am excited for this. 'shut up' hmm a cute introduction, but definitely low down on a full album ranking for me :heehee: the anthem for Trump over the next few days though ~
November 4, 20204 yr I actually like Shut Up :lol: It's by no means the best on the album but for me it's not the worst either!
November 4, 20204 yr Author Yeah 'shut up' is a nice enough opener - I like that it's reflective of the past and takes us to her current state of mind and the elongated notes and strings are lush. But not in my top 10 of the album really. the anthem for Trump over the next few days though ~ mood :rofl:
November 4, 20204 yr '34+35' is DIRTY and ALL THE MORE FAB because of it *.* We stan and need that music video now x
November 4, 20204 yr Author I want to love this more with it being the 2nd single but it's still in my bottom 3. Not bad per sé but not wowing me. Hopefully a video will make it click more!
November 4, 20204 yr 34+35 really is the right choice for single 2. Sounds like a hit and the adlibs at the end are great. I can't wait to see what a video for this looks like.
November 4, 20204 yr This one's alright but again nothing stand out for me. Other tracks have grown on me but this one wasn't really the same.
November 4, 20204 yr Motive was one that didn't really hit me on my first few listens but grows on me loads every time I hear it. I think it will end up being on of my faves. I'm a bit disappointed with Doja's verse though. She usually kills it with the features but she's just decent here.
November 4, 20204 yr 34+35 is a bop, a good single choice I think! motive is another fave, probably my top pick for single 3.
November 4, 20204 yr Motive has really grown on me since first listen! It's still probably towards the bottom of my ranking (and I don't think Doja adds much to it tbh :unsure:) but it's a bop. :music: Edited November 4, 20204 yr by MrAndrewMan
