Today, record companies are failing because they are putting their accent just on the young, and I think that’s rather silly. They’re missing out on thousands of people that would love to buy records but they don’t buy them because they don’t have a lasting quality." https://goo.gl/xMgMvJ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzcutSeason 3,307 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Its not great, but i get why its popular. Most number one songs aren't the best songs ever, they are just extremely likable and hard to hate. Surely, you can find a few good things about closer. Just like Cold Water, Cheap Thrills, One Dance, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

T3ARS 4,132 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Girl, I thought you were talking about Closer from Nine Inch Nails and I was about to drag. It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences. - Audre Lorde Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like how they utilize two people singing in a way that it comes off like a story being told. 17 minutes ago, BabyDory said: I enjoy the simplicity, but mainly theres something about Halseys verse. Idk her voice just cuts, its very pleasing to me. The song makes me so emo though, but thats just Halseys effect on me. 4 minutes ago, Morphine Prince said: I think it's good. Glad it's a hit.
