Jessie Ware - 110% (and everything else she's done)

ok I've heard "Ooh La La" now - it's excellent and I immediately wanted a 10-minute disco edit of it.

Ooh la la is amazing

This record feels like it was made for choreographed group dances at the discotheque which is a bittersweet feeling during this time

the very beginning reminded me of Honk Honk Beep Beep by Badazz:

wow this is gonna be the album of the century

Kind of reminded me of Tom Tom Club when it came on

my immediate association was esg

mixed with like... "meeting in the ladies room"

this one sounds a bit like little dragon but better than that implies

New song “Save A Kiss” out

Absolutely yes

another one

when i listen to that song i'm in a dream

fuck! can't wait for the 12" versions of these

How can this album still be so far away?

I'll devote Thursday night to Averna negronis + dancing to Jessie Ware's last two jams

i wasn't as into "ooh la la" but "save a kiss" rules this album's gonna be the best

this is beautiful <3

The floor is super high on this album for sure, but Save A Kiss is my least favorite of the three. *shrug*

wow @ the jessie ware and haim albums both coming out on my birthday

happy early birthday! I just discovered I'm getting a Trump-Biden debate on my birthday, fml

Well, this album certainly delivers.

My favourite thing about it after one listen is how it ends with song that would fit on Minnie Riperton's Come To My Garden.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

one last great single before it's out

this really is going to be the best album <3 <3

is this the morgan geist one? kinda sounds like it. chintzy boogie vibe

yeah he co-wrote & produced it

album rules, unsurprisingly

wow "soul control" is funky

all of this was fabulous but jaw hit the floor the most probably on the last song

weird how "adore you" felt so monumental when it came out last year and yet amongst all this it feels slight and subtle. still such an incredible song!

also shout out to the title track

glad I mostly steered clear of the singles, this is massive

jesus

I like that this week has brought us multiple albums seemingly designed in a lab to please each and every single ILMer between them

xpost the last track my god

I haven't responded this well to a record in this vein since...the second Natalie Prass album, I wanna say?

this is a very different beast (much more upbeat for starters) but the combo of new and 'retro" sounds/signifiers brought it to mind

The album mix of "Spotlight" mutes that weird synth (?) noise I loved in the single edit

Sorry I should probably know what that sound is as an ilxor whatever who cares

yeah, my only qualms with this are that she dialed down spotlight slightly on the album version and also that overtime should've been included

Omg the synth bips were what MADE spotlight

As much as I love "Overtime", its exclusion makes sense considering the sound of the rest of the album

Yeah, I also thought those little synth hiccups had been quietened on the album version for some reason. I thought it might have just been the vinyl.

This should be a massive record for her. Why haven't all these singles been huge?

Too retro and/or lack of label push imo

This is ILM bait not chart bait
