Who here's seen that "Planet of the Bass" meme that's making fun of 90s eurodance? Apparently the guy behind it's gonna make a full version, do you think it might actually chart through TikTok Meme Power

And if so, could we seriously see a revival of that style, ironic or not?

i’m lukewarm on the album but Psychedelic Switch feels like it is about to be a breakout hit.

i guess i'll be the contrarian and say that psychedelic switch is my least favorite tune on the album. it's also the longest tune on the album, maybe those things are related but maybe not.

i may not love a lot of these tracks in the way i love stuff off emotion dedicated and loneliest time but i really appreciate how adventurous the album is. the harmonies on airplane and kollage, the beats on anything to be with you and after last night, the overall arrangement on stadium love and put it to rest... there's lots of stuff i Respect above all else

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


I'll also say that Psychadelic Switch is probably in the bottom half of my favorite tracks. It's fine, just kind of monochromatic in an otherwise densely layered album. I think the darker, more textured songs like Kollage, So Right and Put It to Rest are the real standouts from this record. I have to see Stadium Love performed live at least once. Who wouldn't want to shout Hey! Boy! Saw you on the weekend! at the top of their lungs.

Some of the better CRJ songs have never even been released, or were cut up into other tracks.

I really love a lot of the music on Lovliest Time, the backing beats sound so much busier than I'm used to but in a good way. After Last Night is a prime example, the breakbeat-y drum and all.

I played Vampire for the first time in a while the other day and it's still incredible. I'm not sure if I'm demographically fit to truly love her albums, but I'll happily keep up with the singles.

It's so good. I don't know if I knowingly ever heard any of her songs. But it popped up while my daugther was listening to music the other day and I've listened to it like 100 times since then. Soooo good.

Yeah last night ruled. Every time I see her she gets better, she’s so dope and has so much fun and the crowd gets super into it. And she picked all the best songs from the new album to play live

Only complaints: Bends might be personal but it's boring and doesn't fit anywhere live, and So Right is too new for it to be the crowd-banger that it deserves to be. When the whole crowd knows Psychedelic Switch it's gonna be even better than it was.

Live performance of Go Find Yourself converted me, great intro to the second encore.

Pitchfork gave Loveliest a 7.4, which was identical to their score for Emotion. Kind of annoying that 7.4 is forever Carly's ceiling with them since nothing can be allowed to go higher than that until they rightfully give it a 10/10.

Pitchfork sucks and its always better to just ignore their scores. They always get poo poo wrong, and they play it a bit too safe these days.

I'm legit not sure how I feel about Seven's explicit version. It feels so weird to hear a k-pop star-the youngest one in his group, even-saying he'll gently caress you right. At least Latto's guest verse makes more sense now.

Look, as a post-boy bander, sometimes you successfully transition into being seen as a fully adult artist and make music like Sexyback and sometimes you sing a song with the lyric “you’re too loving beautiful and everybody wants your sex”

More Lizzo info is out and Jesus


quote:

According to the plaintiffs, while visiting an Amsterdam strip club called Bananenbar, Lizzo reportedly "began inviting cast members to take turns touching the nude performers, catching dildos launched from the performers' vaginas, and eating bananas protruding from the performers' vaginas."

While the afterparties were "routine" and "non-mandatory" for her staff to attend, those who participated were favored and even felt a sense of greater job security, according to NBC News.
