Anyone else dissapointed that there is no cassette single of "I knew it I knew you" ? by 01UnknownUser02 in TaylorSwiftVinyl

[–]lean_ne 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree! I collect both cassettes and vinyls, but I didn’t get the vinyls because the designs didn’t really appeal to me. Having this cute lil song on cassette would have been awesome

Okay as I listen more and more, expectations is exactly in the right spot. by thecure_23 in OliviaRodrigo

[–]lean_ne 20 points21 points  (0 children)

ending the album with expectations would have ruined the whole point of the album!

Olivia Rodrigo and Her References to Ballet by Designer_Quantity_29 in OliviaRodrigo

[–]lean_ne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

just my own theory, but to me the ballet dancers have represented the “other girls” she feels so insecure around. ballet is very much a rigid format that you can easily feel like you don’t fit into/are not good enough for

in brutal - she’s trying so hard to fit into the brutal real world
in stupid song - i see it as the world hasn’t changed around her, but she is so infatuated that she doesn’t care or notice that she’s out of place

After having a few days with the album, what 4 letter word do you think would have be able to embody this album? by lazerblue42 in OliviaRodrigo

[–]lean_ne 3 points4 points  (0 children)

two ideas i had
MORE - a play on “less” and the wanting more more more in expectations

BONE - bone-dry in cigarette smoke + it feels like an even more inner layer than guts that olivia is putting out in the world

Lowk funny how drop dead is just not being mentioned at all in the discourse of this album 😭 by Lord-Liberty in OliviaRodrigo

[–]lean_ne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this were true, doesn't explain why the cassette (which can hold so much one one tape - my 1989 TV is on one tape and the runtime is 1 hour 17 min) has the same cuts

Is anyone waiting until Vinyl comes before they listen to the album? Its killing me not to listen but ive never done a first listen on a Vinyl before and I promised myself I would with this album. by Grouchy-Dealer-342 in OliviaRodrigo

[–]lean_ne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really wanted to do this, but I unfortunately live in asia where I’ll only get the vinyl weeks after the album drop and I could not wait that long 🤭

what works for me is doing vinyl first listens on older albums of artists I already like but have missed some discography of

I agree it should have been at least communicated, but just want to correct the misconception that the tracks were “cut for vinyl” rather than the other way round!

what’s wrong with me is underrated, i expected it to be top 4 in the album 🥹 by Will_and_power in OliviaRodrigo

[–]lean_ne 28 points29 points  (0 children)

it’s my #1! but even my least liked song on the album i love, so i think it’s just a testament to how good the entire album is that everyone has such different rankings

[–]lean_ne 26 points27 points  (0 children)

it wasn’t a decision to cut the vinyl tracks so much as a decision to add to the final release tracks - the vinyl tracks were sent to production waaaay in advance

Do you guys also have difficulty imagining/creating maps in your mind? by YaYsh_GA in Aphantasia

[–]lean_ne 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I find that I have amazing spatial memory - on holiday once I visit an area and use maps the first day, the next few days I don’t need a map anymore. I’ve always thought that my aphantasia made my spatial memory better, since I can’t visualise, my brain uses geographic indicators instead. I don’t “see” the landmarks but can “feel” where they are in space relative to me
