Can someone give me a crash course on Roksyopp cus they seem interesting but I have no idea who/what they are + what their bops are

Start with Junior:

Their biggest song is probably What Else Is There?, which also has one of the best music videos of all time, and features vocals by Goddess Karin Dreijer of The Knife (RIP in Peace).

besides the monsters have absolutely no right to come for it when they could barely hold it together in excitement when this vile rubbish assaulted our collective eyeballs a couple of years ago

I'm listening now. Compulsion done ended me.

This is seriously a perfect autumn/winter album. So dark, brooding, and ambient throughout. Literally no one else could.

I Had This Thing has ended me, oh my actual GORIEGMDFPGLKMFDGVLS;MG/

they know how to pick their vocal guests
 
Thank You is punching. Perfect closing track.

I use everything except Rong. It's aptly named. I think I'd like Rong if it were just an instrumental. It's not even the constant lyrical repetition that grates me. It's more that I don't think the voice meshes very well with the track.

The new Chvrches song "Dead Air" for the MockingGay OST is a hard punch, stream it on Spotify unlike any of Taylor's music.

I just saw love never dies. What kind of travesty. Andrew Lloyd webber needs to be banned from Broadway.

Sarah Brightman is rolling in her careers grave.

What did the Rhat do musically besides The Monster Tour?

Must be sales from her perfumes, MAC cosmetics and RIHver Island. Damn, I can see why she retired.

Tours and sponsorships tend to pull bigger cash than album/single releases, so that's why. Just look at Bey's numbers. Comparing Katy and Gaga's numbers for example, Katy had a small bump as far as album/singles performance, but she pulled in more for the Prismatic tour likely outgrossing ArtRave during that period, plus she had a handful of sponsorships. Also her fragrance. lol

Was Taylor on tour at all in 2013? I guess she had a lot of sponsorships too coz she didn't have music. lol

beyoncé scooping up nearly twice as many coins as taylor in second place

her power. her influence.

when even #2 is irrelevant when compared with the power of the queen b i can understand why some people seethe and fume so much at how utterly irrelevanT their own faves are in the order of the world.

St!nk still slaying after all these years...work i guess. what the fuck do her stans even look like. do the gays even like her...?
 
Beyonce owns music. There's not much else to say on the subject.

Updated 1989 song rankings:

Love:

1) Wildest Dreams
2) Welcome To New York
3) Blank Space
4) All You Had To Do Was Stay
5) I Know Places

Like:

6) Shake It Off
7) Style
8) I Wish You Would
9) Out of the Woods
10) Bad Blood

Meh:

11) This Love
12) How You Get The Girl
13) Clean


Does POPGAF like this more or less than Red?
 
Clean in last place is a goddamn tragedy.

I'm not sure if I'd rank 1989 over Red at this point. It needs more time to sink in. Speak Now will forever remain unbothered if I'm being honest tho.

I think I prefer RED overall. I'm happy 1989 has done well, but I think RED has a lot more of the great songwriting that I've come to appreciate from Taylor. I think I liked country-pop Taylor just a wee bit more than full on popstar Taylor too.

But why isn't New Romantics anywhere on this list tho?
 
Pray to God is really great. The best Calvin song since We Found Love when the decline began.

Honestly, HAIM's power to pull Calvin from the depths of shittiness. The harmonies in the middle eight are simply tew much.

I made the grave mistake of listening to Red for the first time a couple of days ago, thinking it would offer something similarly enjoyable to 1989. Aside from the three pop singles I already knew of, only "State of Grace" stood out while the rest put me to sleep. I am really not here for country-Taylor.
