March 22, 20214 yr I think the problem with the MLK interlude is leading into literally a love song... about your wife. it's a really odd placing. I really like 'peaches'
March 22, 20214 yr Not feeling this unfortunately. Definitely better than Changes but I still not the level I'd have thought after reading online comments. Maybe I'm just not a massive fan anymore after him previously being one of my favourite artists. Sigh... Also Peaches is absolutely revolting and one of the worst, how is that song blowing up?! Truly baffling!
March 22, 20214 yr Not sure if they always been there but his website is selling cassettes. I don't remember seeing them earlier.
March 22, 20214 yr Also Peaches is absolutely revolting and one of the worst, how is that song blowing up?! Truly baffling! It's catchy, though!
March 25, 20214 yr Author @1375192646990237697 @1375193240543113223 Deluxe is coming! Edit: out at midnight, 6 more songs!!
March 26, 20214 yr Author New tracks: 17. There She Go (feat. Lil Uzi Vert) 18. I Can't Be Myself (feat. Jaden) 19. Lifetime 20. Wish You Would (feat. Quavo) 21. Know No Better (feat. DaBaby) 22. Name (feat. Tori Kelly) Loads of collabs! And the three physical bonus tracks remain just that for now.
March 26, 20214 yr Wow I wonder why he didn’t put some of those big name collabs on the original release Haven’t listened to the deluxe tracks yet but I hope it doesn’t keep up with the recent trend for me where deluxe versions drag the album down as a whole
March 26, 20214 yr Like the whole album, I think the extra tracks take some more listenings. I can see why they are left off the main album for the most part as they don't fit the whole tone as much. A couple of them I do actually wonder if they are leftovers from Changes (Wish You Would and Know No Better). They have a similar type of production.
March 26, 20214 yr Just had a listen to the deluxe tracks and ngl I'm quite disappointed :( 'There She Go' and 'Wish You Would' really do sound like Changes rejects and most of the others are just quite forgettable. 'Name' is stunning though so at least I like one of the new tracks! :wub: Edited March 26, 20214 yr by MrAndrewMan
March 27, 20214 yr 'Peaches' is quite nice, not blown away by it but I can definitely seeing it being huge.
March 27, 20214 yr The Tori collab is stunning, really loving that the most of the deluxe tracks :wub: Do agree with the comments about some of the others sounding like rejects from Changes though oops :(
March 27, 20214 yr Lifetime doesn’t fit the main album but it does sound like a smash, it’s the sort of ballad Ed Sheeran would chart with for three years straight. Really liking I Can’t Be Myself and Name from the bonus tracks too. The main album is very solid overall, vastly better than Changes for me. I’ve liked all of the singles from it to some extent, particularly Anyone and Hold On. Peaches is not my type of thing but it’s very catchy and I can see why it’s smashing.
March 27, 20214 yr See it’s really interesting, I can’t get it on to Name at all but I really like I Can’t Be Myself, that definitely sounds like it could fit on the album. Gooddelta- I totally agree about Lifetime- I had to check the song credits to see who wrote it to check it wasn’t Ed Sheeran! I definitely think it could have fit in the first half of the album before the MLK interlude.
March 27, 20214 yr Author I Can't Be Myself is the only one of the new tracks that could slot into the main album for me, it's my fave of the six! I really like There She Go though and both Lifetime and Name are lovely. DaBaby's rap on Know No Better makes it worthwhile :lol: Wish You Would is probably my least favourite across the whole 24-track thing (!) (ignoring MLK lol), it's perfectly fine but quite average. Still though, among 24 tracks there's 22 I find worthwhile - that's such a great hit rate and perhaps even better than Believe, which is my favourite Bieber album. We'll see how I feel about this when it's brand new but I think Changes proves that a new Bieber album doesn't always get stan bias from me :kink:
March 27, 20214 yr there was a miley deluxe that was originally due on the album but for whatever reason they didn't include it (cough scooter)
March 28, 20214 yr Author #1 in the US confirmed, 154k units - over double what Lana managed at #2 :cheeseblock:
March 29, 20214 yr I wonder how often the deluxe coming in the second week is going to be a thing... look at Nick Jonas starting a trend. my last.fm however is ruined.
