April 7Apr 7 Two intros sounds odd on paper but this works well as a transition piece narrative-wise!
April 7Apr 7 Author The extended version has really helped make this feel like a 'song' in it's own right and seeing it chart was iconic.One of her best intros I think
April 7Apr 7 I like the fact she capitalized on the fact the original was so popular and was like WAIT, we need more of this to start the deluxe. Clever. I've hardly listened to it, but it's lovely. (Streams 3)
April 7Apr 7 "I wish I could un-need you... so I did" is such a simple but effective end to extended intro.'twilight zone' is stunning - my favourite deluxe track so I'm happy this was pushed as a single Yay for this being another top 5 hit for her
April 7Apr 7 Author I love this so much We've been TREATED with these deluxe tracks and this is probably my highlight.Does she know you're not who you say you are?'Cause I might give her a callThe most iconic lyrics of Ari's career??????
April 7Apr 7 A great addition to the album. The chorus has taken it's time to resonate with me as I originally found the chorus forgettable, but it's grown on e massively over the last week or so. I'd have chosen 'warm' as the single though. Though thrilled for another Top 5. (Streams 54)
April 7Apr 7 'warm' is fantastic too, it has gone straight on to my spring playlist!Probably the most instant chorus of the deluxe for me and "if you dare, meet me there, I'll be higher than the exosphere" always stands out to me lyrically.
April 7Apr 7 Author This is so smooth!I think the only reason I don't rave about this more is because how great the rest of the deluxe tracks are!Hearing her say 'hold the space' is hilarious.
April 7Apr 7 Lewis won't agree but I'd love a whole album of 'warms' and 'supernaturals'. This sounds so good on drives in this gorgeous spring weather. Would pray for a music video, but I know that's unlikely to happen. Jesus I've been mashing this, why am I like this?! (Streams 95) clearly I have no life. To be fair, I've barely been listening to anything else.

April 7Apr 7 This is probably my least favourite of the deluxe tracks but it's still fun, no skips!I was lurking the Popjustice thread for the album the other day and someone said they picture Catherine Zeta-Jones' character in Chicago when they hear the jazzy intro and I've done the same ever since
April 7Apr 7 Author I know that I just said that 'twilight zone' was my highlight from the deluxe tracks but I think this is going to overtake it because I've been LOVING this so much over the past few days.Such a great pop chorus and the intro is so different.
April 7Apr 7 Imagine what a summer smash this could be. When I heard that horn at the beginning I was worried, but then that beat dropped like something from 'thank u, next' and I may have caused some worry for my neighbours with how I screamed. Also sounding amazing on those drives, I think I looped it on the way to work the other day after dropping my friend off at a pub garden which I couldn't join so I needed cheering up. (Streams 46)
April 7Apr 7 Author I think this her best vocally from the deluxe tracks and is one that I feel would go off massively on tour. (Please let there be one again).I don't really see much people talking about this one though which is a shame.
