Ok guys!! So today I walked into HMV and selected which Deluxe to purchase ... obviously the one in the most pristine condition!!
...haha anyway...
As I was making my choice...They started playing the album in the store! (getting that promo
) but randomly as "Beam Me Up" started playing! So I was thinking: "quick pick one and get out of there before you hear all of the song!" ahaha! So I had heard the first verse, chorus and second verse before I could get out of there!
So anyway...had to wait for a couple of hours to listen because we had a power cut!! The gods were obviously denying me the impact that P!nk's slayage was going to have on me!
...so I've just finished my first listen and I'm very impressed indeed!
Immediate stand out tracks for me are (well most of them!) :
Are We All We Are
Just a great album and tour opener and amazingly anthemic!!
Just Give Me A Reason
Just BRILLIANT! P!nk's and Nate's voices just blend beautifully! Such a good match!
How Come You're Not Here
Just lyrically awesome! Such power!
SIut Like You
You guys were spot on about this! The rap and acoustic breakdown just sh*t's on a lot of discographies tbh!
The Truth About Love
Much like
Grin Toll, this is one of my favourites as it's just so diverse from the rest! Flawless!
Beam Me Up
This made me sad and made me think of my nan even though it's about her miscarriage, some of the lyrics connect with the loss of her!
Where Did The Beat Go?
I just love this song! No particular reason, just the lyrics, the melody especially! Just a great song!
The rest are growers and I think I expected too much of Lily Allen in
True Love so that's why I'm not overly keen YET...but I know it's still awesome!
HCTW is not as bad as some of you made it out to be! I was actually kinda impressed and thought Eminem makes the track!
The worst song for me ... *wait for the shocker* ... is DEFINITELY
Try and I don't think that will change tbh! It's not a bad song because one doesn't exist but it's just the worst of the best!
I'm kinda glad my least favourite is "Try" because it's the only one she didn't have any creative input on!
After listening to the album for the first time, I think it's
Try This meets
I'm Not Dead ... did anyone else get that vibe or was it just me?!
Overrall, I'd rate the album a solid
9 / 10 ... Definitely one of my all time favourite albums!
Listening to the second disc now! All the deluxe tracks seem equally as flawless and you don't get the feeling that they're leftovers!
What did you guys think
P!nk and
Karma Chameleon ??
I'm so happy about this album right now! Definitely worth the £13 I spent! Well P!nk is always worth however much I choose to spend on her! She's worth every penney!
...So P!nk...when are you letting us know the UK Tour dates!?!
