Jun 3, 2025 Not wrong. But I enjoyed temporary. No near my favorite on the album.but if it happens to come in I don't skip it.
Jun 3, 2025 Yeah, he wasted it with that weak a--- writing too. Coulda been speshal if he wrote it better. The hook and production are actually fire, for once, because usually can't stand Skylar's repetitive and generic Dido-wannabe-a---.
Jun 3, 2025 Hmm. Nah thas gotta be Revival fam. Houdini is a b-----r. And I'm not a big fan of 'Somebody Save Me' but, still, not bad. Revival: - Walk on Water - River - Nowhere Fast ...Eh.
Jun 3, 2025 Em should make his last big commercial album with a world tour spanning over 2 years with enough time between concerts so he can go home between dates and call it quits then.
Jun 3, 2025 Yeah, maybe. I've given up on wanting some out of the blue artistic masterpiece now. I don't think he has anything else to say artistically. Even when he does on the odd song (like Darkness), he f---s up the project as a whole with other songs or by compromising etc. although tbf Side A (and is pretty d--- good, with few flaws. But yeah, maybe he should just try go out by making some final, big legacy songs.
Jun 3, 2025 Good song, g---. Em barely tried yet it's one of the few songs that have some content; even if it's something he has talked about a bunch of times already.
Jun 3, 2025 'content' doesn't just = his personal life. There's content in 'Habits', @ 'b---- get off the internet, you ain't even fed your kids dinner yet', that's MMLP-esque and societal commentary. That's the content that excites me, not another Hailie song. He just lazily tried to re-do Castle & Arose because he felt they were wasted on Revival, let's be honest; but you can't re-write those, those were genuine and both amazing, especially Arose. So, he didn't have it in the tank, which is why both feel like forced retreads, because that's exactly what they are. Shoulda left em off or tried harder.
Jun 3, 2025 Most of the album was pretty childish; which isn't bad, just not what you expect from 50yo Em. Need a classic.
Jun 3, 2025 I completely forgot about Revival, it's like my brain was protecting me from the memory of that s--- even existing
