Selena Gomez - Revival (sync tonight 8pm)

It is kind of likable in a Charli XCX kind of way though
 
I'M SO SICK OF THAT. *computer explodes*

you can literally hear Charli all over Same Old Love. the nerve! :D it's a fucking banger though. to this day I'm STUNNED that this shouty nonsense was a hit but good for HER!

Never made that connection but it does kind of remind me of her

I like it in a 7 kind of way
she wrote the song and generously left on her "backing vocals" (lol) hun!
 
Sober is really just a deliciously great "pure pop" song. the audacity of not putting a track like this out as a single.

also quite a strong vocal performance for Our Sel. she gave us everything indeed. *beeweewop*

I was obsessed with this when it came out. Makes me want to (awkwardly) strip to it
 
"Good for You" is the best example of her lazy spoken word vox actually working. It's like Lana Del Rey trying to do Selena. SULTRY
 
it's quite bizarre how perfectly at home she sounds on a SEXY URBAN JAM like this. even the ASAP feature doesn't feel shoehorned in (and god he sounds like the CANDY he is)

quite a moment of forward thinking whatever from the good sis. to think this came after Stars Dance!

Nothing she's done can come close to this. She did say LANA DEL REY and God bless her she did :disco:

Too bad she tried to recreate it with The heart wants what it wants.

that came a year before Good For You sis! it was the PROTOTYPE that was later ELEVATED.
 
objectively not the behemoth of the tracks before it but I do really love Camouflage. it's so sweet and I guess I'm a sucker for that kind of FAUX INTROSPECTIVE MOMENT.

I've definitely never heard Camouflage but I'm really feeling it. Especially the melody in:

But it's good to see you here again
I don't wanna say goodbye
But it's about half past ten
And I have to catch my ride

Me & The Rhythm is such a fucking sugar rush. Would honestly KILL to be in the studio watching her record that note. :eyes: very slinky, très chic. could and probably should have been a single.

Survivors is where things start to get... a bit less effortless. a lot of the songs from this point feel a bit overtly trend-chasing. Survivors is not bad, but it's not quite taking me there either. what was the wild she survived? a tropical disco night at CLUB SAINT TROPEZ?

also, wake up hun, you're singing!

Probably should have been a single, even if I still prefer Kill Em With Kindness.

I have to leave now, but it seems like I hit all the best songs on the album. Thanks @Jark The Herald Angels Sing
 
did we lose you @POP!? :D

Don't remember "Body Heat" at all - digging the HORNS AND JAZZY INSTRUMENTS. Every turn it takes is so unpredictable.

I ZONED OUT for a few of these tracks after Survivors to be honest. what a sea of mediocrity.

Nobody, on the other hand, is absolutely GORGE.
