gah and now i kind of want to start saying rti myself
this is the thing about migs that not enough people seem to get imho, he is excellent precisely because he is so often very nearly terrible
like idk if it was some italian guy popped up on a harley singing about cigarettes and john lennon and leopard print skirts u would all shrivel up and die
loving his new song 'rude' tho

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

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

this song is perfect. i'm never listening to the wale version
― insufficiently familiar with xgau's work to comment intelligently (BradNelson), Sunday, 3 May 2015 16:07 (nine years ago) link
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

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

Bit nervous to know which version is going to make the album. The version without Wale is just about perfect.
― Kitchen Person, Sunday, 3 May 2015 21:17 (nine years ago) link
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.

Idk it's good but I'm not in love with it. (The cover, otoh)
― The Reverend, Monday, 4 May 2015 18:38 (nine years ago) link
yeah i feel the same way. there's a certain effervescence that is missing i think. i like it less than "the thrill"
― J0rdan S., Monday, 4 May 2015 18:46 (nine years ago) link
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.
― some dude, Monday, 4 May 2015 18:52 (nine years ago) link
I thought "Adorn" was just OK when it appeared on the EP, so I'll wait for (and if) radio lifts this.

Love this guy, but everything he's done post-Kaleidoscope feels very one note to me
― Evan R, Monday, 4 May 2015 19:02 (nine years ago) link
'the thrill' seems a comparison designed to arbitrarily cardinalize that song's qualities, i reject it
'use me' x 'arch & point', if anything, otoh
― r|t|c, Monday, 4 May 2015 19:14 (nine years ago) link
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
― J0rdan S., Monday, 4 May 2015 20:10 (nine years ago) link
i.e. an album track?
