It's her New york accent

I don't think she pronounces it like that when she is speaking, though. I think it just shows up in her singing. 

She's also mentioned she grew up listening to a lot of British artists, so maybe some of her vocal delivery is influenced by that?

I get the PI part but she doesn't do it in SL? Isn't it just "I want your stupid love-love"? :oprah: 

Also in PI it's an elongated vocal to go with the melody. The whole chorus vocal is stretched to fit around the melody, like a rubber band, if that makes sense? :sweat:

[Phonetically]

It wasn't laaaahhv

It was a paaahfect illuuusshaaahhnn

 

Edit: I just realized it's about the love in the SL pre-chorus, not the chorus :flop:

Hahaha yeah the pre-chorus one 😂

It drives me crazy and ruined both Stupid Love and her cover of Elton’s “Your Song.” She sounds like a high school choir student singing a solo when she does that.   

Beyond puzzled here. What specifically does she do in Your Song that ruins it ? 

More generally, what is this thread on about ?

How? Had she just pronounced love and illusion normally, which she did in some performances. It made the song sound better. She was just being extra and making a mountain of a molehill for a track thats so incredibly simple lyrically.

I like that it's become her signature. It adds some new depth to the word love and makes it stand out more. My favourite is when she says "all I ever wanted was love". The way she sings it makes it feel like a genuine emotion, like she feels love on a deep level and has a genuine yearning for it.

:applause:YES all of what you have written. It is one of the things that I love most about her and her voice, no one does it better. Her signature.:legend:It's really special and moving to me.:pawsup:

The future's uncertain and the end is always near.

Its one of her worst imo. The fanbase likes to play contrarian and switch it up as every fanbase does. Its the same reason everyone here stans ARTPOP and why Katy stans stan Witness and blah blah blah. Its a way for the fanbase to take something the general public isnt about or was trashed in the media and turn it around and make it something thats just for them. An insider thing that only "real fans" get. like....idk i cant and wont tell anyone not to like it. but i just would hope everyones being authentic to themselves. let me put it that way
