OMG @ emoji cushions

omg his cat seems awesome

he be like "Tell me that the pussy is mine."

i am glad someone made that joke :)

Surprised it took a day

apparently the title of the album is Wild Heart, which is "popped up on a harley singing about cigarettes" as fuck

haha

just finding out that that's the name of the album turned me on... damn

Brad I could kiss you

Both excited and somewhat afraid to listen to this...

this song is perfect. i'm never listening to the wale version

OK, if it weren't for the Wale/"Fucking"-free version, I'd be devastated that he felt the need to ruin the beautiful fragment that was last year's "Coffee." But as it stands, I may now have a new fave Miguel song.

Also, why does it look like he has the Van Halen logo tattooed under his neck in that (otherwise smouldering!) photo?

i have spent entire commutes with the 'coffee' ep clip on loop tbh

just literally had to pause it now cos the feel was so intense when the bridge finally unraveled itself to me

WOMAN

DO YOU KNOW WHAT U GONNA NEED BABY?

oh my god it's still going, this coda, i am dead

this that real kaleidoscope dream, tumbling casanova capsule collide of jagged little thrills

peach colour moon glistens the plot thickens we laugh over shotguns and tongue kisses, kool g rap woke up with a boner today

apparently the title of the album is Wild Heart, which is "popped up on a harley singing about cigarettes" as fuck

love love love

my god that last minute or so ;_;

Bit nervous to know which version is going to make the album. The version without Wale is just about perfect.

Maybe he'll do with-AND-without Wale versions on the album like "How Many Drinks."

I've been holding off buying the frigging GIRLS Season 2 soundtrack because I want Simple Things so much but I'm not sure if it will be on the next album.

*purchases furiously*

Idk it's good but I'm not in love with it. (The cover, otoh)

yeah i feel the same way. there's a certain effervescence that is missing i think. i like it less than "the thrill"

yeah it's not the very top shelf but i want to hear how it sounds on the radio. especially because the "coffee in the morning" version >>>>> the "fucking in the morning" one.

I thought "Adorn" was just OK when it appeared on the EP, so I'll wait for (and if) radio lifts this.

It's the #Beautiful I thought people were falling in love with

Love this guy, but everything he's done post-Kaleidoscope feels very one note to me

'the thrill' seems a comparison designed to arbitrarily cardinalize that song's qualities, i reject it

'use me' x 'arch & point', if anything, otoh

if i was gonna make a favorable comparison, i would say that the layering of vocals on "coffee" reminds me of the sort of static dreaminess of "kaleidoscope dream," a song that seems slight at first but really reveals itself over time

i.e. an album track?

idg y'all

sweet dreams turn into I don't get y'alls

omfg that cover

omfg this full song

praise going up to miguel for making the solo version free - even aside from wale the clean version is a lot better

i meant official not free

solo version is spectacular, "fucking" is terrible

having a prominent curse word to conspicuously edit seems like something radio actively gravitates to these days, would be terrible if not surprising if stations opt to play "f___in' in the morning" over "coffee in the morning."

Adding 'fucking' + putting Wale on both seem like total studio moves to me, the original was just called 'Coffee' after all

The motorik slowburn of the arrangement (which carries over to miguel's performance) is so captivating, I think this works better for not going for the pop jugular, it just hangs there suspended and teasing.

I might actually prefer the youtube rip to the iTunes store version, there's something Wall-of-Soundish about the final two minutes that benefits from a mussing of the edges
