Selena Gomez is Good For You

regarding the "goïd", when you listen closely, it seems it's not due to her pronunciation but to the echo or something.
definitely one of the things that struck first !

there's another thing about the rap break it's the sounds she makes in the background... kinda creepy.
Like an old ghost or something !

YES. the only i truly hate about his verse is the john hancock line. otherwise i fully prefer the production on the callabo. it hits hard.

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.

<3 this

uh ohhhhhhhhhhh. what with this and the new Janet i think my friday night is MADE. can't wait

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"

if your heartbeat is syncopated you should see a doctor

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 love this record so much

omg is there a full album? HANDS TO MYSELF what a title

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.

wow title track is lovely, her voice sounds incredible

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

me and the rhythm is a little taylor for me

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

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 !

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

"hands to myself" is really great

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

definitely an album to cherrypick from though

um can we please talk about "hands to myself"

yes

kinda crazy

def voting for "hands to myself" in the tracks poll

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.

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

that song sucks

"same old love" is great

alb is <3

i actually like "same old love", much better than "good for you"

down with all 3

my gf heard this on the car radio and she goes, "who's this? she seems... damaged..."

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

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