Ok, Demi did THAT


Her song w/ Ari is a bop.
The track with Sam Fischer is a bop as well.
Melon Cake was obviously an ode to her story about not getting a real bday cake bc of her weight issues throughout the years.

Still listening btw, from what I’ve heard so far, it’s a very transparent album. She’s being honest about her insecurities, etc. I already see a couple of singles she could get out of this album.



Thoughts?

I hated the multiple threads about her, but she does deliver and I can’t help but Stan:arrogant
Lmao right, she clearly has issues but she can serve with her music. I’ll never deny that.

She really put her foot in this album. It’s giving me TMYLM tease & I LOVED that album.

I loved Tell Me You Love Me, but I guess she decided to switch up her sound after the album wasn’t as successful as planned. I don’t care for this album, although it seems I’m not the demo in mind. The collaboration with Ariana was the standout track to me, alongside 15 minutes, California Sober, and Butterfly (mainly for her vocals). I can hear Harry Styles on The Kind of Lover I Am remix.

I actually like this album. I wasn't sure quite sure what the sound would be like. It's not super poppy like Confident or TMYLM. I haven't hear her first two albums so I can't compare those. It doesn't seem like she's chasing a super mega hit with this album. There's a theme of self reflection, discovery, love throughout. It's a nice chill vibe of an album. It's a very vulnerable project, so I wish her well on this new journey that she's on.

My favorites are:
DWTD (This song took awhile to grow on me)
ICU
The art of starting over
The way you don't look at me
Met him last night
what other people say
carefully
my girlfriends are my boyfriend

i didn’t think i would like this album but i did. demi’s vocals are really good. this is probably the best she's sounded in her career. she's so versatile and her producers and songwriters created a really nice album.

Well actually this album is more on brand for Demi. It’s vibe is A LOT like her first 2 albums imo.
She definitely went back to her roots w/ this album.

This was her most experimental, cohesive album yet. And I'm loving the indie feel of it. Oak went crazy on the production.

Wdym lol? In the beginning she’s begging for help & throughout the album the songs gain a more healing/confident vibe.

i think it was all over the place to me. the tracklist could have been much better. it’s not terrible at all but i’m skipping a lot of tracks tbh.

Are you just skipping them w/o listening to them fully lol? Cause Met Him Last Night & after is banger after banger lol.

I honestly skipped the prelude (cause I’ve already heard most of it).

Lol yeah I noticed that (maybe it’s a glitch).

& Easy is a great song (Noah & Demi’s harmonizing is heavenly FYI)

Butterfly is an ode to her father that passed years ago & Melon Cake is a song about how her team would not allow her real cake for a bdays in the past. Because she had eating disorders, they’d give her a literal fruit cake.

I’m surprised you didn’t like Met Him Last Night, that seems to be the fan favorite (for obvious reasons) thus far.

i actually like met him last night but it’s not a standout to me. carefully, the kind of lover i am, the art of starting over are the highlights. i enjoyed melon cake too, it’s v catchy!

Oh it’s not the standout to me either lol, but I can see how it’d be a fan fave bc ppl have been waiting for this collab for YEARS.

The standout to me was Easy, the vocals on that track are mind blowing imo.

Carefully is a whole vibe, so is TAOSO
