I listened to Hard Candy up to DWRY and it's okay.
I feel like Revolver is better than most of the album, although I can't really understand most of what she was saying.
A lot of the early RH demos have that feel (see above) and she said that she wrote the whole album acoustic at first and wants to go on an acoustic tour sometime in the future, so I think it might be coming.
Also, GGW is a shameless gay bop. Nothing wrong with that.
