yeah it hits harder and sounds more like a hit but that's the reason why I prefer the more basic and naked version that leaves more room to her voice.

Pretty cool. It doesn't hit me instantly as hard as "good for you" but many hooks. The "hihihihiiiiiiihi" are fun !

still insist that the writer meant "synchronize"

wow, that's a long wiki entry for such a recent and not that successful song !

virtually all recent songs by pop artists with rabid fanbases (including random album tracks that i guess are "notable" b/c they were mentioned in two album reviews or something) have unbelievably long and overly detailed wiki entries

meanwhile ~90% of wiki entries for pre-wikipedia era songs are just "(song) is a song released by (artist) in (year). It reached #(position) on the charts. The End."

"Hands To Myself" better be a single soon.

I've only listened to a few tracks and have no particular thoughts yet but I've noticed I really like her speaking voice.
I didn't know or cared much about her before "good for you" so I had never heard her talk.
She has a great low register voice when she speaks (which makes a big contrast with her looks).
I'm not sure she's a good singer but there are moments when her voice is great.

Heard part of the album while getting coffee this morning. Not bad.

"Me and the Rhythm" is good. "Same Old Love" is garbage.

The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Sunday, 11 October 2015 18:40 (eight years ago) link

wow title track is lovely, her voice sounds incredible

surm, Sunday, 11 October 2015 21:06 (eight years ago) link

loving the album, same old love included. hearing 'the dreaming' synths and more police revivalism

surm, Sunday, 11 October 2015 21:15 (eight years ago) link

me and the rhythm is a little taylor for me

surm, Sunday, 11 October 2015 21:29 (eight years ago) link

i'm also getting some (forgive me, but) Gloria Estefan vibes like on body heat

surm, Sunday, 11 October 2015 21:40 (eight years ago) link

Some nice tracks but I would have been much happier with only slow, intimate tracks like "good for you" instead of the big pop/rnb songs with big production and hooks. Also
I don't really like her generic diva voice.
For instance I find the second time she sings the word "revival" fantastic. More of that !

AlXTC from Paris, Monday, 12 October 2015 13:21 (eight years ago) link

if anything, "me & the rhythm" reminds me most of CRJ's "warm blood"

j. winters (josh), Monday, 12 October 2015 19:37 (eight years ago) link

"hands to myself" is really great

lex pretend, Tuesday, 13 October 2015 12:52 (eight years ago) link

i mean i could but why would i want to <3

lex pretend, Tuesday, 13 October 2015 12:54 (eight years ago) link

definitely an album to cherrypick from though

HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Saturday, 9 January 2016 01:59 (eight years ago) link

yeah i think i might too even though i've only just heard it yesterday via the EOY spotify playlist. it's really great! love her vocals on it.

Roz, Saturday, 9 January 2016 03:16 (eight years ago) link

i'm surprised that there isn't more love for "same old love"

cher guevara (lex pretend), Saturday, 9 January 2016 12:04 (eight years ago) link

HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Saturday, 9 January 2016 15:15 (eight years ago) link

aww yeah the women are opinionated about it, understandably so, and sometimes empathetic, it seems

"hands to myself" reminds me of a robyn album track, in fact if robyn had released it i'm sure the music blog ppl would be freaking out

great radio single in any case

dyl, Monday, 1 February 2016 16:30 (eight years ago) link

yeah. i heard same old love at my hair place the other day, also sounded v good on radio
