i can appreciate lyrics that i can't relate to too, but there are just topics that bore me completely, and that's one of them. unless it's done in a particularly interesting way like maybe some Kanye stuff i guess. but some people just prefer lyrics they can personally relate to, that's why I think a lot of Lorde fans (not really me) fell in love with Melodrama/Pure Heroine and they didn't like the lyrics as much on this one. especially in this climate where a lot of people have been struggling. some people just value emotional connection more in their lyrics than the pure poetic aspect, it's not really how I feel but I can kind of understand it

cause i won't write no symphonies, won't have no streets named after me

for sure, for sure. lots of thoughts and ways to take that conversation but it all comes down to personal preference at the end of the day, like you say.

when the guitar takes over her line in stoned at the nail salon omggggggg

so pissed i dont have tickets for this tour.... gonna use that money towards phoebe next month tho

yeah it's the little moments like that, sometimes even two or three seconds of a song, that makes this thing possibly incredible

yupp

listened to the whole thing 5 times today

only song thats still iffy is 'the man with the axe'

You are a f***ing caricature

It’s either “Live in the Dream” or “…At the Holiday Party” by St. Vincent from my point of view.

By the way, the album might’ve grown on me even more.

holiday party is so f***ing good

Yes, indeed.

Oh, and by the way, @provider, I believe that both Annie and Jack play the electric bass guitar on “…At the Holiday Party.”

yes I think she plays it on a few tracks. really dope album that keeps growing

She plays it on “Down and Out Downtown”—on her own—and on the aforementioned “…At the Holiday Party”—with Jack (if I recall correctly).

you stay coming in this thread solely just to respond to me do something valuable with your life lol

finally the storm clearing up in nyc tomorrow need that solar power

First half was nice, the second half was dragging the album out a bit, this a solid 6 for me.

Yeah couple of shorter filler tracks near the end there

Yikes

Slappss

OMG yessss it’s a top 5 song of 2021 for me

Well…

I guess I predicted this
