Seems like she needs to have a bit of space and do her own thing without any pressures. Hopefully she hasn’t burnt herself out by the whole major-label thing.

I totally missed this new EP but it is characteristically brilliant. I think about her and Charli XCX in similar terms - why are people so suspicious of artists who openly admit they want to make great pop music?

in her case probably because her first go-round wasn't great (I still like "Remedy" though) and lost among La Roux/v1 Lady Gaga/etc; also it doesn't help that there's really no solid place in the music press right now for this kind of thing except, like, Popjustice

("well why didn't you pitch it" because I totally missed it)

I enjoyed the first album a lot at the time and was completely underwhelmed by the follow-up. Played the debut a month ago and it was sounding like it came from a completely different pop universe to now, like the idea that anyone would try and pitch those songs as mainstream concern seems totally alien in a world of straight-down-the-line maximalist Zara Larsson bangers.

the follow-up was uneven but the first four tracks are completely unfuckwithable (really, it should have been an EP)

yeah "Motorway" is probably the greatest thing she's ever done give or take "Stuck On Repeat"

I love this video for Eros though, it's such a simple concept but it looks incredible

The second album is my favourite. Still love “Every Night I Say a Prayer@.

Yeah, I love that second album. One of my favourite albums of the decade. Working Girl was crazy underrated too. Both much stronger and more consistent than Hands.
