June 11Jun 11 First of all...Indie forum?!Secondly, this album is really growing on me. She certainly picked the right singles.I just love her storytelling backed by slick production ❤️
June 11Jun 11 Author I think to be fair all her previous topics have been in this forum, and sometimes she does lean into alternative-ish sounds.I <3 You is easily the best song on this.

I'm enjoying "Everybody knows I'm sad" which hopefully isn't a reflection on me 🙃Princess of power is strong too!
June 11Jun 11 Agreed on I <3 You being the stand out. Feel like it should have been the lead single, or at least pushed before album release. Some really good stuff, but also some notable filler.Overall, I would say I am enjoying this more than I did Love + Fear, but prefer all other albums. Hoping it grows more as a whole with more listens.

June 11Jun 11 Still need to hear this album in full but been LOVING 'I <3 You', her operatic vocal style works really well on that glitzy ABBA sort of vibe.
June 11Jun 11 While I'm still admittedly more fond of the first four albums, I'm glad this album is a much more enjoyable collection over Ancient Dreams.

June 13Jun 13 Author Debuts at #7.That's a really good result for her, it feels like hype and awareness of it has been zero. Also 10 places higher than her previous!
June 13Jun 13 I’d also say that #7 is a good result for her. A shame the last era ruined her top 10 streak but this is definitely stronger than that was for me. Everybody Knows I’m Sad I think being my overall favourite.
July 6Jul 6 Quite like the album! Been going on a bit of a delve into her previous work as well and forgot how many bops there are *_* My favourite tracks on the album are "BUTTERFLY", "CUNTISSIMO", "EVERYBODY KNOWS I'M SAD" & "FINAL BOSS". But also like "I <3 YOU", "JE NE SAIS QUOI", "CUPID'S GIRL", "PRINCESS OF POWER" & "DIGITAL FANTASY". A solid 7/10 album (which correlates nicely with me liking 9/13 songs!)!I also really like the 2nd half of "METALLIC STALLION" when the production really kicks in - love the orchestral notes to it. It's a shame it takes half the song to get there.
