Natalie Imbruglia - Algorithm (Album #7) (1 Viewer)

[Jark]

I fear I... don't find her voice that listenable anymore. it's kind of grating in that clip.

 

[Iguana]

You just need to get used to a new era's TIMBRE!

 

[Eddie]

Yeah I'm not a fan of those shouty vocals either.

 

[Eddie]

What happened to the breeziness? What happened to the relistenability?

 

[AlgoAlex]

Well after hearing in full i think the newest one is my favourite from this era!

 

[FetchFugly]

 

[FetchFugly]

The FUCK!

 

[lolly]

The song underneath the production feels very slight to me. I don't dislike it though.

 

[FetchFugly]

Yes I like it but was expecting/hoping for a little more based on that initial clip.

What HAS she just seen here though?

 

[VoR]

It’a nice, but a bit too close to Dancing On My Own, production wise.

Something just isn't clicking this era I fear.

 

[Eddie]

I think Upside Down might be my favourite the only one I like of the three. It reminds me a bit of Wrong Impression.

 

[Shoat]

Natalie CONFIRMED TORY Running amok through the fields of wheat

I do enjoy however her subverting the usual BMW adverts as she instead looks PETRIFIED making her way through the wilderness of Worcestershire

 

[Iguana]

Oh I actually really like it! That's my favourite so far

 

[disneyteletubby]

Same I got recommended this thinking it was an older song of hers for a moment (the setting in the car with her fearful driving immediately reminded me of Shiver).
Then her hoodie/cardigan dancing is like Torn.

 

[Jark]

if only everything else was more like Torn

 

[disneyteletubby]

I definitely heard her at this verse ♡

 

[disneyteletubby]

Wait it was only earlier this month she mentioned she was diagnosed with ADHD and OCD?

I suppose people realised she was a bit different in some way ages ago. (I figured she probably had ADHD since that podcast thing when she was talking about packing for a holiday and said 'neurodivergence kicks in' or something.)

 

[disneyteletubby]

Haha I love this recommendation last week (she didn't invent it, but to gladly try something like that on TV, you'd have to be unafraid and a bit out there )

 

[Eddie]

I wonder where Nat Imbruglia sits in the ENYA VENN DIAGRAM.

 

[GNL]

Where does Enya sit in the Natalie Imbruglia venn diagram? (Three intersecting circles: breezy & relistenable, new timbre, double pregnant).

 

[Shoat]

Enya resolutely REFUSES to do anything new, and the only things ever getting pregnant in her castle are her cats and cellar spiders.

She does however cross with being her own algorithm and she does like to fine dine

 

[disneyteletubby]

I was actually listening to Nat first when I got recommended Enya in (early) 2021 ♡

Three intersecting circles: breezy & relistenable, new timbre, double pregnant).

Not the last one probably in perimenopause 10 years earlier.

Enya was ~2 years older than Nat when she released the legendary Dark Sky Island.

 

[Eddie]

Albums with word "Island" in their title is another interesection then..

 

[disneyteletubby]

I was about to say Dark Sky Island and White Lillies Island. Ironically Natalie's is darker and named after a property.

 

[Jark]

I can't believe you've only been on the Enya express for 5 years

 

[disneyteletubby]

5½ years or so (unless the time Orinoco Flow played on CBeebies in 2008 counts )

Torn was all I knew by Natalie Imbruglia until February 2021 (then remembered she was a judge on the X Factor, and that she acts too). To be honest there needs to be a Venn diagram for Jill Halfpenny and Nat.

 

[disneyteletubby]

Enya is bilingual; I don't think Nat speaks much Italian? Savoiardi guy sang with her on Ultime Parole or something.

The algorithm should inspire her to develop some language like Loxian.

 

[disneyteletubby]

To be honest there needs to be a Venn diagram

Nat and Gina Lollobrigida (both of Italian descent, can act and sing; regarded as 'the most naturally beautiful woman in the world' at some point. Personally I don't like such titles, but it's evident they looked beautiful in addition to talent. ♡)

 

[disneyteletubby]

I pre-ordered the CD yesterday, and decided to relisten to Just Drive. I do feel the instrumental could've been better, but I like her voice; the raspy timbre is fine here. Sometimes the chorus reminds me (musically) of Just The Way You Are.
The outro would make a cool sample "don't let me take that from you/I'll never take that from you".

 

[disneyteletubby]

Speaking of random samples, this mix 🫟

 

[BoysForSeles]

She’s doing a handful of in store performances and signings on release week but none remotely doable for me.

 

[AlgoAlex]

Hmm I could possibly make the first one but no I am too awkward for such a thing

 

[BoysForSeles]

Hmm I could possibly make the first one but no I am too awkward for such a thing

I used to think so too but have been to two of these kind of things solo in the past (signing and performance) and there were plenty of people there on their own and nobody batted an eyelid. I’ve also reached an age where I no longer give a fuck too!

 

[underthunder]

Hmm I could possibly make the first one but no I am too awkward for such a thing

Me too, but when you are there with other fans you'll forget about that. I've met her and she's is VERY sweet and relaxed.

 

[Halli]

BURY is quite random in that list of stops.

 

[AlgoAlex]

BURY is quite random in that list of stops.

Nat must be a secret black pudding fan ?

 

[Berly]

They do quite a lot there, Jade did her signing there for Manchester

 

[Halli]

Maybe Bury is a hotspot for Northern/Manchester GAYS to get the bus and scream for an hour or two at NAT and JADE then go Cafe.
Before meeting Cherlu and Baba.

Bury has a tram stop. As if the gays would brave the bus

 

[straightorbroken]

Just Drive sounds great based on the snippet I just heard on The One Show where she's sole-guesting.
