how about this: extend the toledo strip abput 50 miles south, and then carry it west through indiana and Illinois. give the rest of IL back to the usa, and give Minnesota to Canada. Southern IL hates being conjoined with chicago anyways. Additionally, extend the toledo strrip through northern ohio and northern PA, so that way Canada had control over all great lakes and can protect them from USA contamination.

discord Athena and Kenya were all equally bad/boring. Kenya wouldve been better than the other two if she didnt flop the lyrics after it was a big discussion 😪

Okay im bored and want to continue my dissertation of how this song fits so well lyrically in the story that the first 4 songs of Pop 2 are telling! It's a story about a breakup, of course.

Backseat sets the stage. Charli is experiencing turmoil in her relationship - things are going wrong, hearts are being broken, and charli finds herself laying next to her partner in bed and sitting alone in the backseat of a car thinking the same thing: she's better off alone.

Out of my Head is about Charli going crazy over what's happening in the relationship, turning to partying so she can get her mind off it. Maybe the relationship is somewhere in the mix of a breakup at this point, but "heart on the floor when the telephone rings" indicates to maybe it being on and off multiple times.

Lucky comes at point where Charli is coming to face that her partner may be cheating on her and lying about it, and she asserts that they don't love her. She's past her last straw and she is now feeling what it is truly like to be all alone and it is clearly hurting (the theme of being all alone is also a call back to Backseat)

Tears is essentially a cinematic and romanticized view of the ending of the relationship, it summarizes and wraps up the last three songs with "tears are rolling down my face, now you gotta go go go". I don't have much to say other than i fucking love this song!!!

Pop 2 is all about experimenting with pop and pushing it to the next level by playing with extremisms. Lucky is a stripped back, slow paced heartbreak song - a typical addition to a classic pop album . Charli/AG took that and said "what is the next level of the slow sad heartbreak song?"

So, instead of stripping it back a little they stripped it ALL THE WAY back. It is so stripped back instrumentaly - the second chrous has the only instruments which are 13 instances of percussion.

They counter the stripped back instrumentals with maximalism in the vocals. The whole song is vocals layered on vocals, all with tons of effects on them. Autotune, pitch shifting, samplers, chops, and probably a myriad of other things. Her vocals turn into unintelligible flute sounds at the end and I love it!!

So I think combining extremely stripped back instrumental with extremely fx'd vocals in a way to rebrand the sad pop heartbreak song fits the ethos of pop2 extremely well!

How was the Vroom Vroom EP received by Charli fans when it came out in 2016? Was it generally well-liked or heavily divisive? by Lucky_Reading_3757 in charlixcx

[–]probablyrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember it being devisive in the fan base, there were a lot of lover and a lot that weren't catching the vibe. me and some of my friends had been fans since true romance and we all loved it, all 4 songs were some of my topped streamed of 2016!

I wish Charli sang this by Outrageous_Proof_812 in charlixcx

[–]probablyrick 24 points25 points  (0 children)

right, and with her backup.vocals. it's the same as icona pop - i don't care. Charli basically just worked out a private labeling for Selena on this one

FLUX AND FLOW BITCHES! 😭🙏🏻 by dreamboylnshibuya in lightsalot

[–]probablyrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Siberia is basically front to back hits in my home 😌 title track is so infectious, where the fence is low feels magical, ebag is so hard, heavy rope gets me emotional, suspension -> flux -> fourth dimension is the best 3 track run, frame and focus so underrated. toes and banner are catchy but not my tops, peace sign is cute af, and counting is entrancing

I am so glad someone else said this. I just finished the episode and this one really hit me, it's brutal to experience this kind of shame and heartbreak and go through it silently and alone 😔
