Chromatica 7,039 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I haven't heard most of the demos. Are any of them better than the album versions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FfFfFfFF 56,083 Posted April 15, 2020 Author Share Posted April 15, 2020 HIGHEST SCORE: 11 from @carsonjoel LOWEST SCORE: 0 from @Ctouf COMMENTS @bowie1986 Like So Heavy, I also think this song is a phenomenal feat of world-building. It's menacing. The horn at the end with the spoken outro is brilliant. I've heard some people having really adverse reactions to this song and I don't understand it. Beyond the language barrier, this feels like the most broadly appealing track on the record. @tomsches Nice track. but nothing special @Andreu I used to dislike this song and it's still one of my least favourites on the album but I am starting to appreciate. @ororo munroe lyrics is good, but sonically not my cup of tea @Sestri Levante I have a love/hate relation with this song. Sometimes I bop real hard to it, others I just beg for it to end @littlefreakster This sounds so badass even though I don't understand a word. @adterp We don't move our bodies anymore, yas corona anthem. This song is intense. Love the ambiance, hate the direction the song takes. Some parts are excellent but the whole thing is not cohesive at all. She hardly can make a featuring song work. @Ctouf I'm sorry but this one just ain't it. I hate the rhythm and even if I forced myself to listen to it hoping I would like it better with time... this still ain't it. I'm giving it 0 because I don't want this one to be high on the final rate. @BradleyCooper I love the production in this song. The vibe is so badass. The only complaint I have is that the song is a little flat throughout. @Lois Griffin I love Grimes-Pan collabs! The “unrest is in the soul, we don’t move our bodies anymore” can at times feel a little too teenage angsty for my tastes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowie1986 178 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Before the Fever is really the only song (in my opinion) that lost something from demo > final track. The midsection was so loud and abrupt, it was amazing. Now it just kind of throbs. IDK I have many thoughts... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryusei 61,110 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 aand the second track i gave a 7.5 to, now i really dont care much because the rest is 9+ Musery Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chromatica 7,039 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I'm not terribly upset with Darkseid placing tenth but I will say that it is an exciting song that is better than two other songs on the album for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FfFfFfFF 56,083 Posted April 15, 2020 Author Share Posted April 15, 2020 HIGHEST SCORE: 11 from @Sneaky and @catsandlabneh LOWEST SCORE: 4 from @Blond COMMENTS @bowie1986 I was really impressed by the mood and lyrics of this song, but the bottomline is that I don't really want to revisit it ever. If I'm going to sit and listen to the whole album, I appreciate its place in the narrative. But, otherwise, I don't see myself going back to it often. @tomsches Cool balad @ororo munroe This song is so magical, melody is so beautiful, stunning @Sestri Levante I feel like the reason why I gave a lower score on is because I was in love with the version that leaked... @littlefreakster It doesn't sound particularly interesting, but still on par in terms of quality with the rest of the album. @adterp This should have been the opener. Great progression and intensity and ughh, her voice. I don't understand what she is talking about nor the direction and from her explanations in itw, neither does she. Transcending atmosphere, the second verse is amazing. @Ctouf I almost never listen to this one. It's an OK track. Not the biggest fan of it though. Not a skip but I would not listen to it on loop. @bradleycooper Kinda of forgettable for me @Lois Griffin The ideas that go into this track are a great example of why I appreciate Grimes as an artist. Unfortunately, I never find myself reaching for this track. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FfFfFfFF 56,083 Posted April 15, 2020 Author Share Posted April 15, 2020 Darkseid and Before The Fever are my top faves. But then again, I love almost all songs on this album and it was expected some of them will end up low. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryusei 61,110 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 one of my 9s not a 9.5 or a 10 so everything in order Musery Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
