Is Nashville any good? I should watch it sometime.

The competition will crumble! Skyfall will will rise. <3

As it should, though Safe & Sound is one my favorite Taylord songs too.

No

 

[Bladenic]

No

Um, yes it is.

 

[Koodo]

No

Succinct and to the point. Your fave should take notes.

 

[Mau ®]

I like Nashville

 

[Trigger]

lol, I suppose it won't hurt to see for myself.

With or without cannabis?

I've noticed how Koodo never leaves the opportunity to drag Xtina

This reminds me actually, I was listening to Warrior last night and I was thinking that pop stars need to stop making 15-16

Spoiler

or 20

track albums. Almost every great pop album is ~12 tracks, not 15+. Cut out the bloat, cut out the album tracks.

Funny, because the same thing can be said about your vocally diarrhetic fave.

But your fave is the most guilty of this of any pop star of the last few years. You know who I'm talkin' about...

We had this discussion before, but album length doesn't really bother me in Pop. I'm not usually checking on that in the genre, and most artists aren't going for cohesive progression in their albums these days. The ratio of good tracks to pointless tracks is more important to me.

 

[twobear]

I could lose some of the tracks on The ArchAndroid too tbh, I just think that the overall quality and the highs are high enough that the more fillery tracks aren't enough to drag the whole experience down.

But your fave is the most guilty of this of any pop star of the last few years. You know who I'm talkin' about...

Actually, I don't.

Body Talk is longer but as Pt 1, 2 and 3 they're 8, 8, 5 respectively,
Out of Control is 12 tracks,
Aphrodite is 12 tracks,
Visions is 13 tracks,

Spoiler

Channel ORANGE is 17 tracks but Intro and End are intros and outros and there's a few shorter skits,
4 is 12 tracks

Have I missed any?

Besides, if my faves were releasing longer albums, I'd still be critical if they were too long.

 

[Artemisia]

I already complained about the length of albums on a fansite for an artist who just last year put out a bloated album with 14 tracks.

not naming names tho

 

[Trigger]

I don't really care too much about album length. There have plenty of short and forgettable albums as well as long messy ones.

I was referring to Janelle. But bless you for the bolded.


EDIT: Oops on the double post...

Same. Long albums have never bothered me in the slightest......

I detect a misspelled word.

 

[twobear]

I just said that I think The ArchAndroid could be a couple of tracks shorter though. I don't much feel Make The Bus or Wondaland.

But I think Suite II as a whole is strong enough to make up for Suite III.

Spoiler

Though I think I & II are altogether the strongest.

[edit]The bolded was because Aphrodylie is one of my faves, not saying it's an amazing or classic album.

Spoiler

Although I do think it's a cut above certain recent efforts I could name.

 

[Artemisia]

...wait HEW are you talking about Lotus just came out this year and has 16 tra--Oh.


OH

there are at least 5 tracks on that album that no one uses tbh

3 of those tracks are important to the album (one of them is even the title track~) but sound like a filler mess

poor dat if only she wasn't overzealous and cut out some songs. though we should to give her some credit for her restraint because have yew heard those bonus tracks? imagine if they made the final cut

but HEW am I talking about

Now sis, Make The Bus is a bop. One of my favorites on Suite III, actually.

Hey, I dont know about you but she is no longer twenty-two


Celebrate her birthday by buying RED and then wait for her Trouble video later on today

Yes, Aphrodite is a better Pop album than most of what came out this year.

Thanks for re-re-reconfirming that Bey is the better vocalist
Mumei's readings have taught you a lot, it seems

You are a true Bey stan if you can't recognize the several ways Beyonce bastardizes that poor, poor song.

I think it's instructive to compare the FLOP MESS of this black and white dude-avatar to my own. And then reflect on your 1D stanning.

Isn't it nice of Taylor to give free promo to 1Dimension?

 

[Majmun]

She does oversing it a bit. I must be honest. But she doesn't miss a note and it sounds pleasant.

You, a Xtina stan, accusing other artists of oversinging is a stretch, though.

Not much of a stretch when it comes to Beyonce - one of the few chicks in the game who REGULARLY oversings and porks up their renditions. She's just as guilty of this as Xtina...but I guess it's "slaying" when she does it.

It's more of a mutual trade tbh. Harry is giving her material for that next single.

He's just glad that it's such a leap beyond the inharmonic vocalization of hunger pains that you and your fave consider to be "singing."

I'm sure that every person on GAF would rather listen to Beyoncé's oft overdone chromatic runs than be subjected to Christina "taking it to church", as you and others like you tend to succinctly put it (it would be nice if your fave knew a thing or two about being succinct, but we can't have everything!).

Although, to be fair, I'm sure that Metal "Real Music" GAF would be delighted to listen to Xtina's sometimes-throaty/sometimes-guttural yelling. I've mentioned it before, and I'll say it again: there is some crossover appeal.

Well, sitting through a church sermon is a truly grueling experience; so I guess the comparison is apt.

I agree, this is one of the cases Xtina has Bey definitely beat.
Christina showed raw emotion and unparalleled power.
Beyonce's sounded so forced and bland. I didn't the performance at all but I think it was because she was nervous considering the occasion.

They so threatened by our 12 year olds

Its adorable.

There's no way around it. Bey's oversings at times but sounds magical at the same time. Unlike Xtina's oversinging...
