Cremey

Thought this was a bit of a mess at first but I’m really liking it now, it’s cute. That outro 👌🏼 Wish that was longer

I’m ready.

Empress Of’s third album is out today and is one of the albums of the year so far. Obsessed :heart: Even more impressive that she wrote it in two months and self-produced most of it. Such a star. 'U Give It Up' is one of my immediate favourites: 0zkxJ6CxwbI

Another BTW vote from me! BEST: Born This Way WORST: ARTPOP

I like their first one the most :lol: The second one looks a bit tacky to me, it has a bit of a fan made quality to it haha. And the new one reminds me of Booty Luv :’)

My second favourite behind Blackout :heart: Top 5 01 I’m a Slave 4 U 02 Overprotected 03 Boys 04 What It’s Like to Be Me 05 Bombastic Love The singles from this are some of my absolute favourites.

'Cool' is the absolute one :heart:

Love this. Quite like PND anyway but even better with Rihanna being involved. So good to hear her even if she only does the chorus/backing vocals haha. SO reading for R9.

Firework

sweetener for me too, my order is pretty similar to yours. 01 sweetener 02 thank u, next 03 Dangerous Woman 04 My Everything 05 Yours Truly The top three are all so solid.

Obsessed with both of these, he just gets better and better. On The Floor might just be my song of the year so far.

Couldn't love this more. Impossible not to listen to it on repeat :heart:

Loving this on first listen. The pre-chorus (or pre-pre-chorus) melody really reminds me of Ariana’s Greedy.

Haha yeah I immediately thought of Take On Me when I first heard Blinding Lights, I just assumed everyone else did too :’)

Love a pop sax! Did the ‘Your Song’ interpolation on ‘Scared to Live’ take anyone else completely by surprise? :lol:

False Alarm sounds nothing like Blinding Lights! It always sounded quite Bloc Party-esque to me, which Blinding Lights...doesn’t. I’m actually quite liking this after not caring much about his last couple of albums. I think it’s pretty clear he’s going in a different direction to Trilogy so it’s best to just take it as it is I think haha In Your Eyes sounds huge to me. Ready to hear that sax everywhere :wub:

This isn’t good, but I’d much prefer to listen to this than Close to Me, Sixteen or Hate Me 😅 I don’t see why people seem to be thinking that this is worse than those three. No idea what her or her label are thinking with this whole campaign though. Flux has been the only decent song – I cant imagine that ever being a hit though so I guess it’s no surprise it didn’t get a proper push.

This isn’t doing much for me after a few listens, it’s not a patch on any of the Phoenix singles. It’s not bad but it’s far too Lewis Capaldi-esque for my liking :lol: Hoping that’ll help it be a hit though!

I think my order would be the same. 3 seems way too low for Summer Girl, it’s so perfectly breezy and fun, but the other two are just undeniable. Ugh SWOON.

The Steps didn’t grab me on first listen but I’m obsessed with it now. Love all four from the album so far. I’ve loved both albums but this is feeling like a step up. Like everyone else I don’t get the reason for the first three being bonus tracks. They’re apparently on all versions anyway though so they might as well just be part of the standard version? Odd.

Before the Fever is the post-apocalyptic anthem I didn’t know I needed

XS is so good. 3/3 now

Can’t wait. That artwork 👌🏼

Nancy and Frank definitely my favourite :heart:

01 Bad Romance 02 Applause 03 Stupid Love 04 Born This Way 05 Shallow 06 Just Dance 07 Perfect Illusion Her lead singles are never her best, Bad Romance aside. Most of them I like a lot but don’t love.
