out of like 16 tracks? how is that not a terrible ratio
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Saturday, 22 February 2014 16:02 (ten years ago) link
depending on your interpretation of "gems" vs. "hits" teenage dream had about the same ratio
― katherine, Sunday, 23 February 2014 00:51 (ten years ago) link
"dark horse" is kinda just a more tolerable version of "ET" isn't it
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Monday, 24 February 2014 16:21 (ten years ago) link
Except with more trap and less aliens and less "All the Things She Sad".

Forget what u said. It's a pretty boring album except for roar, unconditionally, and the second track

dont forget "moments in love"-style synths. shit is the jams.

Spiritual is the real jam on this - love this droney bass during the verses (a bit of a smilar thing in Roar), could be a BoC instrumental.

Birthday and Walking on Air are the two takeaways for me from this album so I'm not mad I'll be hearing this on the radio instead of Black Horse.

dark horse owns, into it way more than ET

Quite like the new single but the new video is just horrible. Think it's a huge misfire on every level.

― Kitchen Person, Thursday, 24 April 2014 17:50 (ten years ago) link
yeah the video doesn't really work at all. it'll be a good radio jam anyway.
― dyl, Thursday, 24 April 2014 18:45 (ten years ago) link
tbf even with at least a handful of good/tolerable singles, "Teenage Dream" is still pretty much her only video that isn't embarrassing on several levels
― some dude, Thursday, 24 April 2014 21:06 (ten years ago) link
Still can't deal w her voice. Very yelpy

"American Girl" was nothing if not excruciating (and "nothing" is a viable option)

with karmin and that violin star and etc. its like now that she went indie after not breaking on a major she's hanging with a whole bunch of youtube-famous viral ppl. i like the california winter single itself, but also generally bonnie mckee is a very boring lyricist.
― big WHOIS aka the nameserver (s.clover), Saturday, 9 January 2016 00:52 (eight years ago) link
the karmin performance is even by the standards of karmin performance something.. else
― big WHOIS aka the nameserver (s.clover), Saturday, 9 January 2016 00:54 (eight years ago) link
don't like the treatment of the vocals on that holiday song, otherwise I would have dug it (if I'd heard it at the appropriate time)

Doesn't a New Jersey require its singles to be hits though?

it will probably fall off the chart next week then re-enter for one more week after the video drops before falling off again. i wonder how embarrassed and/or panicked the ppl at capitol are right now.

it's sorta crazy anyone involved heard that and was like "this is the song we need to save our suddenly flagging new album rollout"... maybe it was just the migos feature
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 9 May 2017 22:21 (seven years ago) link
This really was an odd choice for a single but I did think it would still do fairly well based on her name alone. I still think Chained To The Rhythm is a great song.
― kitchen person, Tuesday, 9 May 2017 22:27 (seven years ago) link
Love the music, but the vocals and lyric are TERRIBLE (and I really liked "Chained to the Rhythm" overall). The Migo rap is the best sounding vocal part.
― Spencer Chow, Wednesday, 10 May 2017 02:52 (seven years ago) link
that migos song is good as hell

you can stump for it as a song for whatever reason but it's already a flop basically
