Selena really is our new Britney, Justin drama and all
― surm, Saturday, 9 April 2016 15:33 (seven years ago) link
This new Selena track takes the "Psycho Killer" and makes something really enjoyable out of it. I didn't think Selena would be the coolest Pop Star around, but maybe she is?

"Psycho Killer" bassline... sigh.
― brontosaur, Thursday, 18 May 2017 18:14 (six years ago) link
Unimpressed ...too acoustic for my liking. Also, it just made me want to listen to "Psycho Killer". Maybe they should have sampled the guitar as well?

selena gomez was secretly the coolest popstar around back when she was doing "naturally" and "love you like a love song" and has generally regressed since then
i have mixed thoughts on this, it has a good song but there are some real lyrical duds in there, i felt secondhand embarrassment at the battle of troy line. not bad tho!
― dyl, Thursday, 18 May 2017 20:31 (six years ago) link
it is at least unique enough to stand out when compared to the typical output of the top 40 sphere at the moment
― dyl, Thursday, 18 May 2017 20:32 (six years ago) link
this is def the kinda song where a strong music video could get me to like it but i don't think major labels are particularly invested in creating those these days
― dyl, Thursday, 18 May 2017 20:39 (six years ago) link
the battle of troy line is still a step up from "metaphorical Gin and Juice"
― brontosaur, Thursday, 18 May 2017 20:42 (six years ago) link
in general it seems like the kind of song that only gets better on multiple listens. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a "Work" level hit, but I don't expect it to happen
― brontosaur, Thursday, 18 May 2017 20:43 (six years ago) link
yeah definitely
"work" wasn't instant for me either!
― dyl, Thursday, 18 May 2017 20:46 (six years ago) link
I love it. It's fresh.

yeah battle of troy line is lol but I really like the song, her delivery is great
― bunny slopes, Friday, 19 May 2017 07:49 (six years ago) link
this is great. it's so nice to hear a new pop song with this sort of light touch. a little space, a little simplicity! thank you!

I really like the song...and her performance too.#selenagomez #BadLiar #psychokiller— DavidByrne.com (@DBtodomundo) May 18, 2017
― illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Friday, 19 May 2017 10:20 (six years ago) link
yeah it's nice and will probably grow with more plays but I don't think it has a smash hit potential.Somehow, it reminds me of Britney's "Piece of me".and, yeah, her delivery is great.

I have never heard that Maria Mena song before. That's great. *Wonders if ILX has talked about it here before*
Is Maria Mena's "You're The Only One" the new Worst Thing Evah?
Oh.
― MarkoP, Saturday, 20 May 2017 16:02 (six years ago) link
maria mena's newer stuff is also good

Love it as well. Not hearing how this sounds like CRJ at all tho.

Or do you mean something off her debut? I haven't heard that one.

less in sound than in lyrics

in sound it kinda makes me think of a deroboticized version of something bloodshy & avant would've done with britney

This came on the station my 11-year-old listens to which is otherwise 100% Hailee Steinfeld "Starving" + soundalikes and it really really really stood out (in a good way)

The Bad Liar video is so goofy.

― surm, Thursday, 13 July 2017 11:19 (six years ago) link
oh it's out! lol
not surprisingly... i like it a lot <3
― surm, Thursday, 13 July 2017 11:23 (six years ago) link
on first listen it sounds alright but a bit generic.
― AlXTC from Paris, Thursday, 13 July 2017 11:37 (six years ago) link
I went back to "good for you" which I hadn't heard in a while. still so... good (but too bad the video version isn't available on spotify).
― AlXTC from Paris, Thursday, 13 July 2017 11:38 (six years ago) link
i just did too last night! STILL that good
― surm, Thursday, 13 July 2017 11:42 (six years ago) link
I still don't get that song at all or her generally but "Bad Liar" really is a jam
