it is weird to me that this album is comparably well received to devotion which is imo more interesting and emotionally resonant

No she’s not underrated and Devotion = WYP
both questions settled, next

imo Pleasure > Tough Love > Devotion >>>>>> Glasshouse
Neat how different people hear things differently.
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 10 January 2021 04:14 (three years ago) link
She’s so underrated outside the UK.

Apparently she has a sizable following in Poland -- Devotion apparently made a successful impact there. I believe she has performed on The Voice Poland

There's been a whole Polish nu-disco scene for at least 15 years, most visibly to me (as a dilettante) in the Kathy Diamond albums or the film The Lure. What's Your Pleasure is a neat fit, and really its only fault (to me) is its single-minded lyrical focus.

Jessie will be on Graham Norton in a few weeks' time and the rumour is she will perform "Remember Where You Are"

Remember Where You Are is finally coming out as a single because Barack Obama gave it the seal of approval & because I know how many of you love it. A brand new edit will be yours from midnight & I’m so excited to be performing it on @TheGNShow tmrw night so make sure you tune in pic.twitter.com/CIBxkyep0s— Jessie Ware (@JessieWare) February 4, 2021 Remember Where You Are is finally coming out as a single because Barack Obama gave it the seal of approval & because I know how many of you love it.

Nice to see Jessie's victory in our poll last week (as well as her performance on The Graham Norton Show) resulting in a boost for the album this week. Its original chart run was just 3 - 44 - Out. To see her this high in the mid-weeks is impressive.
1 Foo Fighters - Medicine at Midnight (35.4k)2 Fleet Foxes - Shore (5.3k)3 Black Country, New Road - For the First Time (4.7k)4 Celeste - Not Your Muse (4.5k)5 The Weeknd - The Highlights (3.9k)6 Jessie Ware - What's Your Pleasure?
Hopefully Remember Where You Are takes off and keeps the album selling for a while.

lovely video. took me a few seconds to realise that was Gemma Arterton and not Jessie though - they really do look a fair bit alike

"are we really arguing about whether she's underrated here? "
I think the better word is 'unknown.' Her albums were/are reasonably well championed and well reviewed in the US, but I doubt most people would know who she was by name.

Album is being re-released in June, first single out tomorrow.
Hi everyone,So, after telling you all in January that I was going to do a deluxe, it seems like I’ve taken my sweet time doing it. But it’s here! And going to be yours June 11th.What does one call a deluxe record after their first deluxe was called the Gold Edition? Well, Platinum Pleasure of course!!!Now, we have to make the deluxe go to Platinum so I don’t feel like a wally.The first taste of Platinum Pleasure (sounds like a condom range I know, hey, perhaps merch idea for tour in December???) goes out with the delightful Zoe Ball on Wednesday 28th April from 7.30am.It’s called Please. It’s fun, flirtatious and a song that feels like we are getting closer to those moments of meeting up, talking, touching and kissing. I love it, I wrote it with Shungudzo, Danny Parker and James Ford (my dream team) and the video that is coming has loads more dancing for you lot to learn in time for the tour.Now, onto the tour. December, I have everything crossed for it and honestly, can’t wait to perform to you all.In the mean time, get ready for more music, more dancing and the arrival of What’s Your Pleasure The Platinum Pleasure edition. All formats (including limited edition vinyl, double cassette & more!) will be available on my store on Wednesday morning, so keep an eye out!Sending loads of love to you all.Jessie xxxxxxx

Wish the bonus disc was packaged separately as a single disc for those who'd bought the album on release, along with a discounted 2cd platinum edition to draw in those who hadn't. Feels more of a fan disservice, buying the regular edition twice.
― the body of a spider... (scampering alpaca), Tuesday, 27 April 2021 14:29 (two years ago) link
Well I didn't actually buy the regular, but more tempted for this. Will it be okay to put put PP on a ballot after after listing the regular last year? Prob gonna do it anyway.

I refuse to believe that a Platinum Edition wasn't always planned because there is no way you would sit on a song this good.
― boxedjoy, Wednesday, 28 April 2021 08:36 (two years ago) link
yeah i figure there would have at least been plans floated to do something with the outtakes if they're all this good (and of course "overtime" is too)
― ufo, Wednesday, 28 April 2021 09:15 (two years ago) link
I downloaded it. I want her to earn the revenue.

Are they outtakes? I was under the impression she went back into the studio in lieu of touring.
Fabulous song once again, she doesn’t miss these days.
― monotony, Wednesday, 28 April 2021 11:16 (two years ago) link
oh i'd just assumed because that's what deluxe edition tracks usually are, idk if she's said either way
― ufo, Wednesday, 28 April 2021 11:25 (two years ago) link
You may be right. I’ve definitely seen some Instagram stories from the studio since WYP came out, but I also know that she’s talked about starting work on the next album and that it’s a continuation of the sound of “Remember Where You Are”, so it could be that she was recording that instead.
― monotony, Wednesday, 28 April 2021 12:08 (two years ago) link
i found the interview where she talked about the next album and she said she intends for it to release early next year (so probably what she's been working on most recently then) & will be like "remember where you are" "with a bit of energy" which sounds great to me
― ufo, Wednesday, 28 April 2021 13:44 (two years ago) link
ah and found another interview where she confirms the deluxe edition tracks are outtakes & that she's been working with kylie lately!

it kind of reminds me a little of the inferior and utterly obscure 80s track called “Wild Girls” by Rori, but to be honest that’s just indicative of a whole swathe of shimmery dancefloor oriented pop from the time. i love the space she allows for the track between lines, i love the fuckin HARMONIES.
― Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 28 April 2021 17:20 (two years ago) link
more than a bit of Madonna’s “Open Your Heart” added to this stew too i reckon
