between the Say Lou Lou single and this, I'm really missing pop Lindstrom being a proper thing.

Ok the Sundfør album is out for everyone http://open.spotify.com/album/4Mewe6A62ZpJKmVzcaOixyOr, the good that can come from someone with the ambition and guts to do ludicrous, theatrical pop, really go for it vocally too, and the songwriting chops to write the catchiest choruses of the season.― abcfsk, Monday, February 16, 2015 12:48 PM [

This is bloody great isn't it. So many brilliant songs and really good sequencing too - love the way 'Accelerate' segues into 'Fade Away'

I'm happy people are digging Susanne's album, perhaps her best, although some earlier singles are unbeatable.
You had to be here to understand how instantly ubiquitous her music became when she debuted in 2007, with the most airplay of any artist that year. Of course that album was very different, more of a straightforward singer songwriter production with several v radio friendly tunes:

i see this was posted in last year's rolling pop thread (i failed to click on the link), but sheep that i am i had not heard it until recently now that it's getting a radio push. i'm on board.

This is a quick, quarterly reminder that all available tracks mentioned on this thread (and a few album selections) are being posted as updated to a thread-specific Spotify playlist that I'm maintaining. I just did a quick sweep prior to posting this message and updated as of today with everything that's been added on Spotify since it was first mentioned.
That playlist is currently a bit more than an hour of music and is clickable below. Give it a spin and subscribe if you want to listen along through the year.

"love me like you do" or "outside"? I prefer the latter and think it's kinda silly that her calvin harris features keep competing with her solo singles on the charts, same thing happened with "burn" and "I need your love."

the track is Austrlian, so maybe many brits and americans are unaware yet
― djmartian, Friday, 10 April 2015 12:47 (nine years ago) link
That should be AUSTRALIAN !

this is the greatest broods track ever

I heard this the other day because I have a George Maple alert on Spotify, but I'm listening to it again more intently right now. Very good!

I've been enjoying the Allie X "release", CollXion I. There's a clumsy Sia-esque metaphor used on "Tumor" (and the melody bares strong similarities to "Unconditionally"), but otherwise it's pretty much all fire

surprised that as far as i can see there's been no mention of the moroder x britney "tom's diner" on ilx yet??? it's amazing and perfect
― lex pretend, Thursday, 30 April 2015 14:50 (nine years ago) link
ilm favorites fall out boy have ruined "tom's diner" forever for me with their heinous song
― dyl, Thursday, 30 April 2015 14:55 (nine years ago) link
apparently it has been discussed somewhat on the giorgio moroder thread
― dyl, Thursday, 30 April 2015 14:59 (nine years ago) link
they've covered it???? ewwwww i never want to hear it
― lex pretend, Thursday, 30 April 2015 14:59 (nine years ago) link
they inexplicably interpolated it in their last hit song ("centuries")
― dyl, Thursday, 30 April 2015 15:01 (nine years ago) link
reason #9349392931 never to listen to fall out boy i guess. i adore almost every interpolation of "tom's diner" i've heard, trust them to be the ones to get it wrong

This is honestly the first favorable opinion I've seen expressed about it anywhere.

it's a great idea executed too straightforwardly to be interesting
liked the kylie song from the moroder record tho

I like "Centuries" quite a lot but i dig that Fall Out Boy's brand of emodramatics isn't for everyoneBritney's Tom's Diner was discussed in the Moroder thread brieflyi don't know what to make of it except that it 1) isn't terrible exactly2) is tremendously unnecessary

I love the album from this duo of twin french-cuban singers who mainly sing in Yoruba. Art-pop, a tad too much chamber-piano but there some complimenting cuban percussions and a r&b vibe. Great stuff.
