as someone who would say the meadowlands is a top 5 album of all time.... and i also loved secaucus and the other releases, and i've corresponded sporadically / minimally with charles over the years about how meaningful the band has been for me over time (and bless him for being so responsive!).. this whole thing is incredibly sad!! but also this Aeon Station single release seems very empty to me. after a few listens, i wish this would be grabbing me in some way but it isn't at all. i really wish everyone the best, and of course ultimately i'd love for there to be a proper release with the full band that we've all been waiting on.... idk
cynical take: drake makes long ass records to stack up streaming points ---- vince & kenny make short ass records to stack up streaming points?
ok well 1st) charli is the best! and basically doing everything right including this track, imo 2.) i have been really looking forward to hearing more of what the stargate recordings produced and this doesn't disappoint --- i was really excited about after the after party and sad when that didn't produce an album, but number #1 angel and pop 2 happened and those are both all time classics afaic so no harm there! 3.) i love track 10 as did we all but this shit does slap! the p4k review was overly harsh about the drop being 4 years ago or whatever the fuck, this is still very pop zeitgeist IMHO! #queencharli the best
my problem is that the spelling thing is half the song! and it's terrible.
very much yes on 2) it's exactly like 'can't stop the feeling' except boring and lame and probably harder to dance to... i don't want to be at a wedding where this is played.
second take is that this is actually really bad. fwiw.
my first impression (FWIW!) is that it is not good and disappointing!
i have loved imogean heap's 'goodnight and go' for so many years at this point. when i saw the tracklist for sweetener containing 'goodnite n go' i was like no fucking way that is what i think it is. but then it WAS, and so much more. really loving this album front to back (despite the confounding choice of that vocal sample on the light is coming playing endlessly forever but i still love that song.)
just want to be asleep until sweetener drops
maybe it'll grow on me but the hook feels weak -- but i like the beat and ari forever of course.
i will give this album another try, and i'm not trying to hate! -- but after first listen it just made me want to listen to Land of Talk
this was lovely -- also right after this the show became awkward af and basically stayed that way until it ended
i expect the downvotes and i'm not trying to troll but i found that SZA album to be super boring. no disrespect! i hope Tinashe is able to really do it this year.
i am here as fuck for that charli featuring dg track. queen charli.
