"Marvin Gaye was an atrocity against music"
huh

The Way I Am, Slow It Down and Somebody Told Me are all great, why weren't any of those singles? most of the rest feels pleasantly anonymous (had remembered hating Attention but it sounds decent enough now?) but when I actually pay attention to the lyrics he comes across as so obnoxious yeah

so you hate marvin gayes music?

The album is largely more subtle than that.

Although I am not wowed by that song called “Marvin Gaye “” I don’t hate it as much as Man Alive.
― curmudgeon, Tuesday, 29 May 2018 21:30 (six years ago) link
Charlie Puth has a song called Man Alive?
― Fedora Dostoyevsky (man alive), Tuesday, 29 May 2018 21:39 (six years ago) link
he has a song called Lord Sotosyn.

"attention" was a big hit & then they released the two songs on the album that sound most like it

god that Kehlani track is so "Human Nature."

something about the main hook in BOY is unsatisfying to me

you're unsatisfying to me

is this the 'poptimism 2.0' that one thread was warning us about?

I love the last minute of "BOY".

Not that this matters either, but Puth writes, produces, and plays almost every note.

in this vid he says he was channeling jam n lewis production on this alb ... might be why i like ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IU8BEMi8UyM

"Somebody Told Me" isn't going to be a single, is it? It's my favorite on the album. By contrast the James Taylor track...isn't (and didn't go anywhere either from what I can tell).

Sorry after he put out a good album, I had to accept that he is also quite attractive

Fuck this is good. Weirdly it reminds me of Kylie’s “Slow”, though that may be due to the parts of the video where he is lying down.
Looks wise, I tend to feel that Puth is unfortunate to be in direct competition with Mendes, but he’s definitely giving it all he’s got here.
― Tim F, Thursday, 22 August 2019 10:56 (five years ago) link
and i feel it's not that far away from a billie wilish vibe? but maybe i'm feeling this because yesterday i spent all day listening to her album.

I'm not sure about that choke, though.

I was a bit ehh on this song at first, but it turns out listening to music on an iPhone speaker isn't ideal. It's a grower for sure.
― self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 22 August 2019 17:15 (five years ago) link
I like the choke. Adds a teensy momentary edge to an otherwise edgeless production
― Simon H., Thursday, 22 August 2019 17:15 (five years ago) link
the choke thing took me out of it at first
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 22 August 2019 17:16 (five years ago) link
calls to mind this recent longneck post from the Burna Boy thread:This is exactly what I needed. Just one question though: is choking someone during sex considered to be extremely romantic these days? I get that it's a "thing" in prn atm, I'm just not sure I'm ready for it to become a trope in love songs just yet.― human and working on getting beer (longneck), vrijdag 26 juli 2019 13:23

sorry, meant to block quote
i like hearing him do something w/ more of a groove but this production is cool... it's almost like "cry me a river"ish which...

― self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 12 September 2019 17:35 (five years ago) link
i liked way more 'i warned myself' but he seems to be getting cuter with each video.
― Nourry, Thursday, 12 September 2019 18:07 (five years ago) link
Listened to this again recently and it's half excellent, half solid. Might like it more than the last one. His melodies are indelible.
― Indexed, Tuesday, 3 January 2023 21:39 (one year ago) link
"Smells Like Me" is very Hall and Oates, no? -- tons of fun but doesn't excite me like "That's Hilarious" > "Charlie Be Quiet!" The latter does the soft/loud thing a la Rina Sawayama, and how perfect to have the electric guitar riff blow up on the words "be quiet!" 2 minutes of pop perfection.
― Indexed, Tuesday, 3 January 2023 22:37 (one year ago) link
new song he's been posting about on tik tok called "that's not how this works" sounds excellent
