Dua Lipa

I definitely like the verses

yeah they're good. i can't decide if it should have gone a little more bon jovi or not overall. i think i'm sold on the song itself it's a b+ maaaaybe an a-. terrible video though lol

It kind of sounds exactly like you'd imagine a collaboration between Miley Cyrus and Dua Lipa to sound

it really does except that it's somehow more underwhelming than i would've imagined.

This is growing on me. The key is not to look at the video.

This person has a song on Just Dance 2021 that my 10yr old daughter likes.

$50 million dollar on a one-time livestream is a little scary

I liked the "Prisoner" chorus better when Olivia Newton-John used it for "Physical"

Dua Lipa x Angèle • Fever (Oklou Remix)

.@DUALIPA appears on our February cover.

How the singer ignored the trends, turned herself into a ‘female alpha,’ and delivered the modern disco classic we didn’t know we needed. https://t.co/yLiGFzgf3T pic.twitter.com/LPVQhOK3Ve

Boomers not happy

Is this a music magazine or a fashion magazine?? Way to prop up talentless people, where are the pianists and violinists let alone guitar players that would shred that excuse for clothing even more.... helping dumb down society instead of improving it.

Rando cereal-loving covid truthers not happy.

where is that "haunting imagery" thread

also lmao @ "Dua Lipa???? FUCK OFF, WHERE IS MY ITZHAK PERLMAN COVER???"

the Dua Lipa experience is hearing a song you've heard a million times and going "who is this" and somebody says "Dua Lipa" and then you immediately forget again

since hearing Wendy Williams call her "Dula Peep" I cannot stop doing it myself, it is a much better popstar name

I have no idea how you would forget a song was by a person named dua lipa

Dula Peep is her canonical Star Wars name

Dula Peep Roth:

(this one’s for you, “Cereal” Shredder)

Dula Peep > Dua Lipa, by every metric imaginable

i would like to see that thing she's wearing on a hanger. i just think it would be hilarious.

Duo Lingo, I mean, not the hot babe looking in the mirror of that more recent photo

anybody angry about doula pyap on the cover of the stone is ignoring the hard truth that RS is less popular and culturally important that d'walla i'pa by an exponential factor

boomer dads got angry when Rolling Stone put Britney on the cover in what, 2000? surprises me that people still have outrage left for this stuff.

New 'Moonlight Edition' of the album out today with some new tracks on it

WE’RE GOOD video is OUT NOW!!! Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to bring this video to life. 🦞🦞🦞🦞 #WereGood https://t.co/K71s0Omzsj pic.twitter.com/indwk5ykQn

I'm really into that song but I don't know what's more demented: lobster aboard the Titanic video or "we're not meant to be/like sleeping and cocaine".

In the past couple days I stumbled across her Tiny Desk Concert from December and I'm completely obsessed with it. Could be an e.p. in its own right.

to be fair you could edit any popstar like this I'm sure

I assume at least some of those are rehearsals? (But she half-asses her singing on record, so...)

her slack approach to singing and dancing is part of her appeal, to me anyway.

yeah, kind of a debbie harry thing

lmao all the club future nostalgia remixes really are dogshit aren't they.

the only good one afaict is tensnake's "hallucinate" which wasn't on the album.

I like the Mr. Fingers and Midland remixes

I literally only know Dua Lipa because my daughters like her, but she is by far the best thing they listen to. I enjoy her music. I am old.

some of the remixes are ok i guess but they're all at least second-tier for the artists in question imo. the fingers remix is nice but it's hard for me to ignore how his chords clash with the key of the vocal. worst in that regard is the paul woolford remix, just like ... wtf was he thinking? that doesn't work for me on any level. it just seems like there was no dialogue at all between dua lipa or her songwriters and the remixers - just all on separate islands and it sounds totally phoned in as a result, less than the sum of the parts. there must have just been too many people involved without anyone making overall creative decisions and like covid and everything, idk.

not a Future Nostalgia track, but try Oklou’s stab at “Fever” for a remix that totally works on its own terms

love it, thanks for the tip!

unexpectedly i found the 2cd edition for £2 today.
read this thread, expected the worse re the Blessed Madonna mixtape version.
instead, like a proper cut-n-paste sample heavy mixtape, i bloody love it.
so much fun.
the label must have had a lot of fun clearing/paying for samples.
cant recall the last time i heard a major release with so many samples.
not heard the album proper yet, but damn, best £2 i have spent in a long time.

rumours abound of a joint disco album with Kylie!

be still my beating heart.

ps. heard the proper album now.
yeah, it's bloody brilliant.
still don't get the hate the re mixtape as it's exactly what i'd expect/want from a dj mixtape.
celeb phone ins, samples, and quick cut-n-paste drops of remixes.
i think it's a brilliant 50 mins of pop/dance perfection.

given the rather boring megamix that girls aloud put out for their Tangled Up album release, then i cant help but throw a lot of love to Dupa for the effort put in by all concerned.

i'm a big fan of this misprint in this week's New York Magazine "Things to Do" section.

Lol

Definitely sounds pretty similar

lol yeah that's a rip for sure

she improved on it tho

I can't remember if they said anything in the Song Exploder episode about how they came up with the chorus. I'll have to go back and listen to that later.

i have a hard time believing it's anything but an unfortunate coincidence tbh.

there are only so many sunny pop song chorus progressions you can do.
