COOOK 76,406 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 (his highest score there) "The Australian singer is a hedonistic pop hero on an album that pulls together club nights, tender moments, last-call horniness, and eclectic samples with remarkable finesse." Spoiler "Something to Give Each Other is a showcase for some dazzling eclecticism. Ideas that couldn’t possibly work on paper are executed skillfully and to often gorgeous effect." "The record’s vibe is so cohesive that when the album dips, it’s noticeable." "Much of Something to Give Each Other scans as less of a reinvention than a gradual honing of Sivan’s craft. He’s slightly scaled down the soaring, anthemic volume for a sound that he can more fully command. Whether he’s falling in or out of love, going out, or reflecting on the night before, Sivan sounds more credible than ever, pairing a newfound swagger with a heady rush of emotion. He’s his own drug, and it’s such a hit." Full review and previous scores here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm happy for him the reviews have been very favorable so far, but I'm kinda surprised, ngl. There are some REALLY good songs on there, but those that aren't are quite... boring?

Guest Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 I personally would have rated the album a 7. It's really good and I do enjoy it - its been spinning for most of the weekend, but I feel like 8 is too high of a score for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeavyMetal Halcyon 1,747 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 I actually really like this album, and agree with the rating. I think with time, more people will come to enjoy it. It's like Robyn's Honey, everyone hated it at first. His production on his tracks is amazing and so is the song writing. I know y'all just want gay club bangers.
