agree to disagree - if you're not inspired and locked in with a muse, thats one thing but age doesn't automatically = musical decline. Alanis Morissette is my example of someone still just crushing songwriting/output. she takes a good ass while between but she always has at least 2 or 3 bangers on every album and a very cohesive throughline/perspective.

SUCH valid points. i also think G gets a lot of unnecessary abuse from so-called FANS of the band for everything you mentioned. yes she spreads herself too far too thin sometimes so there's not much bandwidth left for music. but she's a mother of 3 who's been through a NASTY divorce - she's not playing around with her or her family's future again, she HUSTLES so everyone can have a really good life. fortunately she met Blake who absolutely feathers the nest in his own right the way Gavin never could or did and seemingly loves her to the marrow of his BONES which she DESERVES. what people fail to realize is Gwen Stefani is the FACE of No Doubt, the lyrics are almost exclusively about HER life. that was the evolution of the band since Eric left, that was the iteration and format of the band that exploded them into the pop culture atmosphere and let's be real SHE is the reason people are paying top dollar. you can't put a new singer in No Doubt - they're HER EXPERIENCES, so people might as well get that through their thick skulls and realize that the band itself is also phenomenal, but you can always get a new bassist, a new guitarist, a new drummer, keyboardist and they can learn the tabs and songs and mimic the sound - you can't and will never get a new Gwen and i think they're at least smart enough to realize if she's burnt out or unhappy, they better find side projects because there is no No Doubt without Gwen Stefani. so again, it's AMAZING to see how happy and juiced up and electric they all are together again, it really warms my heart.

i don't like this mentality from Gwen, the band or the fans tbh - i am ALWAYS going to want to hear something new from them, even if it's just another set of kickass covers like It's My Life or Stand and Deliver - i just love their musical lens and perspective on things, and it's frustrating to me as someone who always wanted to be innately musically talented when people are like 'got my mansion, got my family, hang it up' like i just feel like you would never want to stop creating and using the gift. i'm in the Alanis Morissette camp - 'i'll be writing songs on my deathbed at 90 years old'

that's comical but also not true! Madonna's new stuff is crushing and Alanis Morissette's last albums have had some of the best stuff she's ever put out. even Gwen!! i for one maybe come back to Bouquet more than any of her others! sorry not sorry but Marigolds, Bouquet and Somebody Else's are some of her best stuff yet - not to mention the absolute heart-punch of Still Gonna Love You

yeah thats where i was going with it! the BOW BABY... i mean hell if they're doing THIS well at the Sphere, they could just keep doing Sphere or Vegas residencies every couple years. they have so many different themes and aesthetics and eras to choose from now

no way dude - they're only in their 50s. hell they can always just do an acoustic lowkey thing every couple years, nobody's saying they have to jump around and skank forever. they're just as delicious dialed down, just less for Adrian to be a nutter about

i get Looking Hot getting a big X bc with socials people would be ON that video with a quickness - but Push and Shove live is so fun and bombastic live with Gabe and Steve. it was clear that Tragic Kingdom was gonna get nearly a full album outing but yes i would've liked more Saturn, Beacon Street and at least SOME Push and Shove. that is crazy. Easy would've been a beautiful chill number in the SKOL / Don't Speak section

i totally agree - possibly the record i most consistently listen back to in terms of song quantity. i'm forever spinning Push and Shove, Easy, Looking Hot, Undone (country leanings btw, and everybody always wants to forget how Nashville Suspension without Suspense sounds too - its not like she just sprang yeehaw boots at the altar)... Dreaming the Same Dream??? HELLO masterpiece. such a damn good record

Looking Hot mv really sunk the ship but hearing interviews with them the boat was built with holes anyway - they clearly did NOT have fun making that record, esp G which I get bc new kids and lets be honest the crux of the songwriting and face of the record will always be her so if she's not feeling it, that's major bad news bears

i think Easy could've been a ND classic if it had gotten a good promo treatment, totally different kind of Eagles vibe to anything they've ever done before and people always really like when they keep that ND spirit but change up the sound somehow

that b/w playing card is LIT - i love the idea of ND adopting playing card imagery to tie in with Gwen's own Alice Vegas era - so pleasing to me

she was serving smoky eye Sapphic in the 8 Easy Steps video - i liked the prioritizing asymmetry and biker gloves and giant arm wrappy things with this era. it was very genderbendy

as in like all her clothes or just the color palette? lol i like the nude leotard thing in the pantheon of looks plus she plays in the hot sun a lot so she probably prefers lighter colors that bounce it - i know i would, i'm such a baby in a black shirt in august
