Sidewalks is conflicting to me. The Sam Smith feature feels a bit random, he adds just a bit of different color to the song, and thematically I guess it makes some sense for the post-chorus not to be Abel, but its an interesting choice. I thought Sam Smith finally dropped off the face of the earth tbh :poot:

Kendrick's verse is... :giveup: 

and i LOVE the way the guitar and background processed vocals weave along side each other, its beautifully done and super atmospheric with the drum kicks and bass in the background... but Kendrick's verses and hook are not melodically very strong to me :shrug: Like, I also thought it was the autotune turning me off, but I actually think with the production not having it auto-tuned would sound odd, i think its the melody itself I find weak. It's still a great song. Also, super miniscule detail, but sometimes he starts verses with the same intervals regardless of key, it feels accidental, like where his natural voice levels out; they always branch out pretty quick, but like I heard him start this song and immediately thought of 3 other songs where he also started with the exact same melodic line. Idk if casual listeners would pick that up, but its interesting to me. I don't have perfect pitch, just relative pitch, so I'll have to go back and check, but its the inflection and intervals from 1 to the next that are the same. 

It's not Sam Smith! It's Daniel Wilson.

I have been listening to this album the whole day and I am obsessed. He did not disappoint. I love Rockin' and Love to Lay (and a few more :lolly:). But my absolute fave is Secrets!

In general I love the sound of this album, it's so amazing :giveup:

Spoiler

and let's be honest, I thought Joanne would have this kind of sound (at least influenced) and I guess I will rot in hell for that comment :hor:

Secrets

Can somebody please tell me what inspiration they hear?
I'm 100% sure it sounds a lot like something I've already heard but I can't come up with any artist name or song! The closest thing I can think of is Empire of the Sun. But I feel it reminds me of something else too.

Album's great. But I find it sexist that nobody's pointing out he worked with a million writers and producers on the album. When Bey released Lemonade GGD bashed her for the same thing. :oprah: 

I don't think it's sexist, at least here in GGD, simply because people give more attention to Beyoncé. She's a female artist, more successful, has more fans and is closer to Gaga's status. Everyone notice what she does. The Weeknd is much less meaningful for people around here, so no one really cares.
