I'll wait years between albums if it means she's spared by the label from recording Ryan Tedder shit like "Obsession" ad infinitum.

'Why does anyone sign with a label at this point"
I assume she's under contract from several years ago and can't extricate herself yet.

she signed to a major as a teen 9 years ago and has had nothing but drama with them ever since they failed to get an early hit with her

after seeing her interviews and clips of her live performances tho I really do worry NTMT was a fluke and her follow up could very well be a dud.

Is there a thread yet for "most disturbing pop songs to crack the top ten" yet?
― Rod Steel (musicfanatic), Monday, 30 July 2018 22:58 (five years ago) link
Pretty faithful to the original, but also very 2018.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 30 July 2018 23:07 (five years ago) link
that Elliot Smith cover upthread is disturbing
― antisocal (rip van wanko), Monday, 30 July 2018 23:29 (five years ago) link
cover is surprisingly great for a scratch thing
― anza808, Tuesday, 31 July 2018 03:31 (five years ago) link
yeah I was pretty impressed with his guitar playing - that is a hard song to play. no indication in any of DIIV's music that he can play that well. her vocals sound good, too. but it is a heroin song, given the circumstances of the time, i get why it's dark.
― flappy bird, Tuesday, 31 July 2018 04:21 (five years ago) link
the slight dip in the melody of "of" in "there must be something he's thinking of." is great.
― fact checking cuz, Tuesday, 31 July 2018 06:56 (five years ago) link
Great cover - on record at least she's always had about twice the vocal presence and intensity of Aimee Mann, so it's no surprise that she plumbs something more from this obviously good song than fools like me ever knew was there.
On the topic of the follow-up album, can't anybody Extraordinary Machine this shit? Free Sky!

― President Keyes, Tuesday, 31 July 2018 13:21 (five years ago) link
Yeah, it's a good song for her, but as a demo it sounds pretty undercooked, and doesn't add much to the original.
I am glad that she's starting to put stuff out there and communicate more. I take it as a sign that we will get a new album before too long.

idk I think the Kim Wilde comparison is otm
― flappy bird, Tuesday, 31 July 2018 16:19 (five years ago) link
virtually every singer on the planet has at least twice the vocal intensity of aimee mann
― aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Tuesday, 31 July 2018 16:32 (five years ago) link
Yeah, that's not really a challop at all. No slam on Mann, it's just her toolset.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 31 July 2018 16:41 (five years ago) link
idk i guess i have a wide definition of "vocal intensity"
― princess of hell (BradNelson), Tuesday, 31 July 2018 16:43 (five years ago) link
presence also
moodles is correct that sky is louder
― princess of hell (BradNelson), Tuesday, 31 July 2018 16:44 (five years ago) link
Just heard this for the first time and I love it! It's the song Sky was born to cover. As much as I love the Till Tuesday version (and I really do!), I think Sky's vocals are superior Aimee's.
― daavid, Tuesday, 25 September 2018 07:58 (five years ago) link
Also that bass is amazing! I don't have high hopes but it'd be great if they polished it a little bit and it became a proper release.
― daavid, Tuesday, 25 September 2018 07:59 (five years ago) link
*superior to Aimee's

How did this cover become my favorite track of 2018? There's been a lot of good music this year but I keep coming back to this. Where's the fookin ablum?

The first song isn’t a pop song...because I really want to make a video for it (& I love it). I’m confident about all of the pop songs on my record so I decided to start with something different. 🤠— Sky Ferreira (@skyferreira) March 6, 2019
