Young and Beautiful: hNkgucMSqlM For some reason, it's not clicking with me like I thought it would. In some ways, the 30 second tease was better than the actual song.

The beat isn't that dissimilar to Tyga - Rack City. It's the synth strings that sets this song apart.

I thought this was a good episode but it really didn't feel like a finale to me. My biggest frustration this season is that no story has had any pay off - especially Andrea's. I just think that after all the build up she would've got a bigger pay off than that.

The first episode was quite slow but I felt it worked a lot better than the season 2 opener which was a bit of a mess.

Christ....it looks incredible. It looks like they've stepped it up a notch this year. Storm of Swords is easily the best book in the series...there are just so many amazing moments. The scene with Dany in Astapor looks like it's going to be perfect.

Don't Hold The Wall is great as everyone's saying. I need the rest as separate tracks to fully get into it though...those iTunes streams do my head in. Has anyone else heard this? It has made me love Suit and Tie now: TVwtBBpkAJc

I really don't understand the hate for season 1. I think Boys Club and The Reporter are two of my favourite episodes. Even the pilot is pretty great - the "broke my clavicle" and the travel pillow bit are hilarious. Season 2 is easily the best season though... for me I would rank them: Season 2 > Season 3 = Season 1 > Season 4 > Season 5. I think season 5 has been pretty terrible so far with just a few moments of greatness. I think the best bit so far has been the Borat and Neve Campbell impressions.

Which is funny because when she came out with Remedy everyone was whinging that she had become a 'pop tart'. I really like Motorway. I think it's a nice balance between the pop hooks of Hands and the more alternative dance route she's been going recently. Listening to the rest of the album clips on iTunes and nothing is really jumping out.

Puakenikeni > everything else.

What's going on in this thread? Anyway, I like this... I think she should've changed it up from the Max Martin songs though and saved this for fourth single. I've Red on Radio 2 a few times and it sounds so good on the radio. I reckon they should've made that the third single.

This is dire. I want this song: 0u5Jv3gMbSE

I agree that the season 4 finale would've probably been a better place to end the series. The overarching plot this season felt very tacked on which is why it was hard to get emotionally invested in it. At least the first 4 seasons had some sort of common theme in terms of the alternate universe. Still, the actual finale was pretty good and would've been considered an amazing season finale... but as a series finale it's just sufficient. The best season finale was obviously the end of season 2. Did we ever find out why the Observers actually invaded?

I don't think Timbaland was the best person to produce this. Fair enough, the song is very R&B, but it could do with something that gives it an edge, like Usher - Climax or Solange - Losing You. I absolutely love Timbaland productions but this sort of song is not his forté.

For me, this is better than most of Master... HQIciGoQLvs

I think Homeland is at its best when there is a seed of doubt about Brody and I think by using his car that element of doubt has returned. Unlike some, I actually liked the slower paced first half. I really liked the scene when Jessica started taking Brody's things out of the drawer... for some reason I found it quite moving. The only thing I don't really like is how the Brody/Carrie love story is becoming the main driving force of the plot. In season 1, their relationship seemed more like a component of the is he/isn't he a terrorist plot, whereas now the overarching storyline seems to be about them two getting together.

I still think there's a mole... maybe that's something that will be developed in season 3. I thought this was a great finale. It wrapped the events of the season up nicely while putting in place the pieces for season 3.

Leona needs to take a chance on a song like Come Alive. I know Collide flopped, but I think a big part of that was because it doesn't actually have a melody and isn't very good. Come Alive is right on the money in terms of production and melody but her team seem to keep picking the most generic safest songs to release, when that isn't really going to work.

I immediately thought of the Lana Del Rey - Ride video. Ridiculous desert monologues and all that. Love them both.

At the moment, the Diplo song is easily my favourite. I just love that synth he uses on this and Get Free. This EP has got me excited for her next album... I think it's going to be quite the pop spectacle.

This week's episode is the first one this season that has actually made me laugh. Why has Lesley become so annoying though? And what's with the crinkled forehead face she seems to do all the time now?

Well, I reckon it's , he just turns up when there's another chance to tip Nazir off...

I have a feeling Tom Odell - Another Love could become a big hit...all it needs is some well placed use in a trailer or an advert or a season finale of something...

Nothing has grabbed me yet like Losing You, but Lovers In The Parking Lot is very very good and keeps growing. The rest I'm struggling to get into, it reminds me a bit of the Jessie Ware album.

I think this week's episode + next week's trailer made it quite obvious who the mole is...

Pull Me Down is ridiculously gorgeous. I just think I love anything Clams Casino produces. Stay is probably the highlight of Unapologetic as well.
