Tournament: PLATINUM HIT 8 - Page 917

Boy Problems is great for how comedic it is.

But I love those types of songs, like Dinosaur.

"I think I broke up with my boyfriend today, but I don't really care" gets me every time.

1. Run Away With Me - 7/10
2. E•MO•TION - 9/10
3. I Really Like You - 2/10
4. Gimmie Love - 6.5/10
5. All That - 8.5/10

Well, sorry E*MO*TION (song), Making the Most of the Night took the title of my new favorite. This song is very gripping melodically, and it's not annoying in repetition imo. There are very small things, such as when she harmonizes, that add a hint of darkness to the song that really pulled me in. It's pretty infectious and I could see myself listening to it more. (9.5/10)

There's a little under a day until the deadline, so yes!

...

Also the Timeline is completely up to date, I forgot to mention that during the Kesha stanning for EMOTION rush!

I actually had a sneaky suspicion you'd love this song from the comments about not liking her more "overwhelmingly upbeat" songs and form here on out there aren't so many of those.

Stan this bop!

On Your Type, her usual annoying vocal mannerisms aren't really there. I mean, she still doesn't sound like a 30 year old woman (she's around that old, yes?), but she sounded at least a bit more mature. The chorus did not really do it for me, but it wasn't that bad. (7/10)

Thematically, I feel Let's Get Lost was already covered by the very first song on the album...but at least it felt like a slight improvement. (7.5/10)

LA Hallucinations was just a tad annoying...oh well! I was most looking forward to that one. (5/10)

Aurora

Not Let's Get Lost being rated higher than Your Type. YT is so amazing.

EDIT: Your initial reaction to LA Hallucinations basically being mine.

Luckily, it's a grower.

Warm Blood sounds like a disgusting infomercial in song form. It is trying way too hard to be a #throwback, it's like as if this song is supposed to remind us this was 80s inspired if we managed to forget, or tell us blatantly if we didn't know by now.

(4/10)

Aurora

Huga your taste.

WB really is the worst song on the album (ignoring IRLY's 2 because it's weighed down by the CMM comparison).

Element

I've never listened to EMOTION outside of RAWM (which is fantastic), IRLY (which is fair), and Warm Blood (which is boring). Let me press play and see what the hype is about

Well, thank you for not doing a ballad for the last song on your album! It's so overdone it's near disgusting. Anyway, it has the same overall feeling of the rest of the album, it's almost tiring. It's not a horrible ending, I just feel like this song already existed in about 5 other songs on this album. (6/10)

HUGAMETA RATING: 65/100, Mixed

Kesha saving Carly's career and bringing activity back to the PH thread.

Let me listen to Delirium today in return (also @ Clarkson for listening to Nine, I'll listen to Piece By Piece).

Now listen to the bonus tracks, and if you don't want to, make TIME for the best song on the entire album:

~~Watch you give it a 5.5 now that I've hyped it up~~

Hope you use Don't Need Nobody! It was my personal favorite on the album @ Delirium.

I would've gave this ~9 if it were in my review. It's a lot better than most of the album to be honest.

Such a bop.

Warm Blood should have been bonus track'd and IDJCHTD should be a single.
