good god if you can’t hear the last ten years of pop music blossoming so perfectly by her will. my ipod hated to see me coming for the digital drop. i do think the pop auteur thing continues to be such a wonderful look on her - she made the most perfect collection of contemporary pop music videos ever and now everything feels comparatively postmodern. and of course there’s lemonade... which i know fewer of you have watched than i’d care to admit. please go do that! it’s a totally different form, excellent in a distinct and singular way. alas. here lie the hits! a whole other language and one she breathes so effortlessly. do you have this in your itunes library? do you have history with this record?

ok i have revisited it since then but it’s been a while and when tristesse/joie came on in the natural wine bar the other night i suddenly regained my will to live and man this whole record fucking rips. i found it originally when MTV was featuring ‘je veux te voir’ nearly constantly in 2009. les femmes is also a really good song

Very fantastic and delicious pop album. I revisit it every couple of years when inevitably one of the many bops gets stuck in my head and I’m never disappointed. it’s always a fun time. Mind you- Ariana was 19 when the album was released

literally could not be more excited for her and brat (should’ve been aoty) but it’s always bittersweet when an artist you love blows up like that and their very intense impact on one group of ppl is stood up next to new fans/the general public’s opinion. it’s exciting but it’s sort of awkward. i dont think we can explain what music means to us.
whatever
pop 2 rlly is so f*cking fun and cool

there is little more british than grave robbing i’m not sure what to tell you. as for the appeal, consider the innate proclivities towards divadom endemic to homosexuality… ahhh yes. my mother (biological) put me onto the first of many mothers (figurative). used to plug in another controller and let me convince myself i was doing shit. her cone bra built nations. i thought i was going to be a game designer before anything else. she’s the beyoncé of video games and her IP holders need to remember that
