she's had a bunch of buzz from p4k
it's a good song, i like the synths in the chorus especially
― ufo, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 14:26 (six years ago) link
Johnny, she had two songs on p4k tracklist, I think, and was also nominated for BBC sound of 2018 iirc? She's going places.
― Frederik B, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 14:27 (six years ago) link
this has me hoping maggie rogers places in some capacity
― Simon H., Tuesday, 23 January 2018 14:28 (six years ago) link
Cool. The only thing I go to p4k for anymore is the Over/Under videos.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 14:28 (six years ago) link
I love her voice, made the usual mistake of reading comments on youtube ,though, and apparently there are people out there who feel differently

and yes Simon, hopefully there will be some imago-approved maximalism soon, just for balance, like

oh shit I've not heard this one. Oh shit how did I not know she had an album out this year??

this is dope!

I'm merely an afropop tourist, but I like this a lot.

soundcloud says the release date for this was 15 December 2017, that's cutting it pretty fine for the 77
― faust apes (NickB), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 14:47 (six years ago) link
nice song btw
Nice!
― Frederik B, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 14:49 (six years ago) link
Yay! The album didn't make my ballot but this one was pretty high up on my tracks list.
― emil.y, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 14:50 (six years ago) link
this song is amazing

VERY, considering noms opened on the 14th.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 14:54 (six years ago) link
That's part of the reason for the bonus 10 noms allotted in the final 24 hour stretch, though.

This is destined to be the most interesting stretch of the whole poll folks, so savor it

imago-approved maximalism, as promised

(my #6)
this is awesome
― Simon H., Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:03 (six years ago) link
Oh cool - in a reversal to the last one, I didn't vote for any L'Rain tracks but the album made it very high on my list!
― emil.y, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:05 (six years ago) link
is this the first 77 entry to contain a hidden track?
― Simon H., Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:07 (six years ago) link
that Nilüfer Yanya song is all right but the pretentious blank expression on her face throughout the video is enraging to me
― (the blues version in his Broadway show) (crüt), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:08 (six years ago) link
not sure it's hidden - it's in the title! the silence is just a pause to reflect on how amazing the music is. psychedelic soul-prog yall
― #TeamHailing (imago), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:09 (six years ago) link
I dunno, crut. That just seems like...her face? xp
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:10 (six years ago) link
this is the most imago song ever
― Badgers (dog latin), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:11 (six years ago) link
apologies in advance but it reminds me of the ambient fanfare at the end of Kid A
― Simon H., Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:11 (six years ago) link
yeh voted album too, whole thing as a piece truly rules
― nxd, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:12 (six years ago) link
also, I only discovered this after the nominations closed and would have possibly voted for one of the other tracks instead, but this was the only one nominated and as my introduction to l'rain it merited instant high inclusion. as for the album...well that's another story. next week...
― #TeamHailing (imago), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:12 (six years ago) link
i never got round to listening to this but enjoying it in the here and now

yeah, 'stay go'

is that her going all yma sumac at about 2:00 or is that a synth?
― faust apes (NickB), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:15 (six years ago) link
i liked the l'rain album but not quite enough to vote for anything from it
― ufo, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:15 (six years ago) link
I find this L'Rain pretty annoying but yesterday was rather placid so I'm okay with it
― rob, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:17 (six years ago) link
this ten year old track used the Moodymann sample way better than Drake did:

All aboard the L'Rain. Very good to see it place. Album is nuts.

I loved that xx album

lovely song
― Simon H., Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:22 (six years ago) link
Say Something Loving and Replica were the highlights from that album to me but this was fine too, maybe one of them is still to place?
weirdly when I saw them recently they did this as a stripped down ballad, nowhere near as good
― ufo, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:23 (six years ago) link
In my head last January I kept imagining a Buckingham-Nicks cover.
― morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:23 (six years ago) link
Glad to see L'Rain. I actually nominated this on one of the last days for nominations so didn't really expect it to place. Only discovered this very recently but have listened to it a bunch the last couple of weeks.

reminds me of use somebody by kings of leon :/

see how all the artists have been different? hasn't that been exciting? (starting my rules change campaign early )

lol but true xp

Love the album, voted for it. If I'd voted for a song it would probably have been Dangerous. On Hold placed last year, right?
