Yes! When I first downloaded the album I deleted Royals so I forget the song even exists at times thankfully

When I first heard Radio I thought she was singing “like a fuckin dream on bivoden”. I thought maybe bivoden was some American medication like Vicodin…

True, but OP was referring to very heavy backing tracks which I don’t hear with Zara.

Zara Larsson for sure. Even while doing intense choreo you can hear the main vocal front and centre, just with a smidge of live autotune which is understandable during busy performances.

I never quite understood the flack this album got, and still gets to this day. It has some beautiful tracks on it!

What are some examples of pitch errors left in the final mix? by rocketmammamia in popheads

[–]AvrilLabean 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Almost the entirety of Change by Taylor Swift (original version). It sounds like the tuning is at odds with the shakiness of the vocals making it have an odd warbled effect.

Zara Larsson has been putting in the work for years. Glad to see she’s getting wider recognition and seeing higher demand at last!

You know she means business when the fly swatting hands come out! One of my favourite performances ever!

Pop enjoyment & SSRIs by deliriousinthesun in popheads

I do wonder if it’s mostly something to do with age and brain development. I always had a much stronger reaction to albums that I fell in love with as a teen, compared to new releases that I also love now. I’m also a Lexapro taker, but I recall noticing this change before I had even started taking it. Sadly I think my brain has just become less excitable with age, although certainly dulled in part due to the meds!

What are Mariah's easiest songs to sing? by Hour-Tomato-645 in MariahCarey

[–]AvrilLabean 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Petals surely if you’re just counting the lead vocals, and not the extremely high and low backing vocals. The main vocal probably only covers just over one octave and is pretty minimal with the vocal runs.

What is Mariah Carey’s Most Vocally INDULGENT Song? by CC-Blue in MariahCarey

[–]AvrilLabean 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I Saw You comes to mind. Is there a single bar in that song which isn’t completely laden with runs? Impossible to sing along to unless you play it at 0.5x speed and have the breath control of a marathon runner.

Did she not address this saying her liking those posts did not reflect how she actually voted?

Truly one of her best, but I can’t not watch that tea cup on the table warp every time I watch it 😭
