DelusionalGaga 29,205 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 What's with all my faves disappointing me with their releases recently? I really loved Flux and thought it was a step in the right direction. But Sixteen is another faceless attempt at a hit. I wish she/her label would realize that commercial pop really does not suit her and she should go back to her folk roots. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic 11,922 Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Okay it grew on me, I've had it in my head all day. It's the best release this era. Flux just wasnt a return to form imo. It was like someone trying to be Ellie, sounded kinda forced. Slow song =/= Old Ellie. Hoping the rest of the album is great though.

Thing is commercial pop does suit her and that's why her label force it even more. Close to Me wasn't great by fan standards but it pulled some good numbers, like most of her pop hits. It's just that we prefer the deeper lyrics and melancholy of her earlier works. I dont think her later stuff is that faceless, just not as meaningful. Tbh though I loved Delirium and that was very production > lyric so The hardest thing in this world is to live in it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like "you be a bad sixteen" 🤔 They’re chopped vocals a la It Ain’t Me / First Time. It says Like we were sixteen but they’re chopping it. [Pre-Chorus] Time Suddenly, we got no time We're so busy doing life That I miss your eyes on mine, mine [Chorus] If you just focus on me Like we were sixteen And plotting our lives Can I wear your t-shirt And sleep on you While I dream of all the good times? When we were sixteen [Post-Chorus] Like we were sixteen Like we were sixteen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
