It's so annoying how Pitchfork reviews Ariana's albums yet refuses to do Taylor's despite several of their reviewers listing her albums and songs on their year end lists.
Pitchfork giving Arihanna's album a higher score than Pure Heroine
Quote:
What’s fueling Pure Heroine is a tension between the tweet and the truth, the cumulative effect of the little digital fictions we craft for ourselves daily. But "Ribs" is the best song that this very promising songwriter has written so far because—even at the risk of seeming uncool— it gradually allows the walls to crumble. "It feels so crazy, getting old," she sighs at the beginning, in a smoky pantomime of maturity and detachment—sort of like a sepia-toned Instagram filter applied to her voice. Soon, though, the beat ramps up and the song turns into an impressionistic swirl of memories: "The drink you spilled all over me/ 'Lover’s Spit' left on repeat." She gets so caught up in the feeling that she lets herself blurt something truly vulnerable: "I've never felt more alone/ It feels so scary, getting old." Lorde’s music is quietly wise to a particular modern irony: Beneath every #DGAF there’s a person who secretly gives a **** about something, and behind every anti-pop song there’s a singer who—just like everybody else—knows what it’s like to feel happy, free, confused, and lonely at the same time.
This girl that I came here with, dat my main
The one that's sharing these drinks, dat my main
The one that always had my back, dat my main
Dat my main one, dat my main

This girl that I came here with, dat my main
The one that's sharing these drinks, dat my main
The one that always had my back, dat my main
Dat my main one, dat my main
Yeah she up in here with me right now
I said dat my main one, dat my main
