WE ARE LITERALLY SO BACK OMFG. I LISTENED TO IT AND AHHHH I HAVE SO MANH THOUGHTS, SO I HOPE YOU DONT MIND A BUNCH OF NONSENSE RAMBLING. i tried to document my thoughts by each track but it was a bit hard cause im working. i was asleep when it dropped but i had to listen to it the first thing when i got to work!!! and OH we are so back.

anyway here are my rambles! :D

nomad - WE ARE LITERALLY SO BACK. (ik this was a single but hearing it again was like omg just such a reminder!!!)

sexy to someone - always always a bop and like the transition between the singles is cohesive and i adore it. also like that she put both of the singles back to back to make room for the rest of the album too!!! a good fav

second nature - love it. def feels like a grower on me though.

slow dance - the flute part toward the end was interesting. def the percussion reminds me of immunity w the snare. love it??

thank you - i love the upbeatness of this omg. i think this might be my favorite so far!!!!! literally so good???

terrapin - i loved the percussion on this one. it feels reminiscent of immunity in its simplicity but also like sling with how everything fits in tandem with one another. its so calm and chill and i def think its a favorite for me. like second to thank you. i like the lyrics too. it just feels nice.

juna - okok i think i have to take back what i said on the last track being my second favorite so far. this one trumps that one. its my def 2nd fav. its GOT SUCH A VIBE UGHHH I LOVE IT. i know i keep bringing up the instrumental but holy shit i adore this sound for herrrr. her vocals on this too. it fits her!!! its so good. we are literally so back. eating so good as clairo fans.

add up my love - FUCK SHES MAKING IT SO HARD TO CHOOSE A SECONF FAVORITE ON THIS ALBUM. ITS LITERALLY SO GOOD TOO WHAT THE HECK. I LOVE THIS ONE OMG. LIKE- ATP GIVE IT A 3 WAY TIE FOR SECOND PLACE UGHHHH I LITERALLY ADORE THIS ONE OMG. LIKE ITS GOT SUCH GOOD VIBES AND GODDDDDD THE PERCUSSION!!!! IMMUNITY CORE LOW KEY. literally every song slaps and we are literally so back.

echo - okay this one was good but i didnt feel all that blown away over it. it definitely was nice and i liked the second half of it, but i feel like this ones a grower for me in terms to the track list so far. HOWEVER THE FUCKING TRANSITION INTO THE NEXT SONG!!!! WHAT!!! THATS LITERALLY SO EVERYTHING!!!!

glory of the snow - i liked this one omg. i feel like i sound like a broken record but this one was really nice. i dont think it compares to the earlier tracks for my favorite because theres so many already but if i had to itd be on that list toward the bottom. its definitely a favorite but slightly less favorable than the others i was freaking out about. she really has made it hard to pick favorites on this album ffs. 😭. ALSO THE SONG TRANSITION TOO??? WHATS WITH THAT MA'AM!!!

pier 4 - this definitely felt like a good closing track to end the album. i enjoyed it overall. it feels like her, but in a different perspective. its not immunity and its not sling but a whole different thing that feels like it bonded the both together. i think this album is sooooo good for her and like her best work yet but i dont think i could compare it at all to her other albums because they feel like their own seperate lives and beings. its somewhere in the middle of them that brings out the best parts of both of them that charm lives. its genuinely a good album and has so much replayabilty for me. i loved it!!!! i think i have to listen to it again to grasp a list because the songs meld so cohesively that it makes it hard to remember my feelings on them because im so caught up in the moment of being excited for the new music.

NOOOOOO OMG LITERAAAAAALLY. when it dropped iwas quite sleepy but i stayed up anyway and made it :] AND YAYAYAY ME TOO. I HAVE. SO MUCH RO SAY.

WAIT IM GONNA DO WHAT U DID I WILL RETURN YOUR RAMBLES

nomad - YES. i think this one i already got used to because i listened to it so fuckingn much so the magic’s worn off just a liiiil bit BUT YES.

sexy to someone - AHHHHHHES!!! I 100000% AGREE WITH U ON THE BACK TO BACK THING. very satisfying to me ++ THE TRANSITION ALSO YES. there r so many other cool transitions in the album so this makes me so very happy

second nature - yeah SAME NGL!!!! i think i absooooolutely love like. the flow and melody of the song and i love like the chorus especially!!! but the like intro part the dumdum part reminds me a lot of willy wonka…. which is one of my least favourite movies ever

slow dance - I DEFINITELY AGREE WITHH U ON THE IMMUNITY THING I HEAR IT TOO!!! this one tho i don’t have much to say but it’s very catchy imo and just. So Good.

thank you - WAIT NO WAY. THIS ONE IS ALSO GOTTA BE ONE OF MY FAVOURITES???? HIGH FIVE FRIEND YAY!!!!!!!???? ALSO ESPECIALLY THE CHORUS ON THIS ONE GOT ME. UTS JUST SOOOOOOOOOO

terrapin - the instrumentals in this one were soooo good. i love love. AND UES ITS LIKE!!! immunity AND sling !!!!! +++ the piano in the background. absolutely magical

juna - NO UR LITERALLY SO RIGHT ABOUT THE INSTRUMENTALS!!!! I CANT SHUT UP ABOUT THEM!!!!! i feel like it has such a chill smooth vibe!!!! ITS SOOOOOO SATISFYING AND I LOVE HER LIKE. QUIET VOICE IN THIS. also im pretty sure juna is a cat/dog name she mentioned it in a comment i think. SO ITS KIND OF LIKE JOANIE FROM SLING’s SISTER WHICH I ABSOLUTELY LOVE

add up my love - I LOVE THIS ONE FOO. IT REMINDS ME A BIT OF SEXY FO SOMEONE WHICH IS AWESOME!!!!!

echo - THIS ONE I DIDNT END UP LISTENING TO WHEN I WAS DOING A FIRST LISTEN BECAUSE. WHEN IT STARTED THE INSTRUMENTALS AND THE FIRST LYRIC LIKE “there’s something that I need from you” SCARED ME BECAUSE I WAS IN THE DARK HAHA. but YEAH!!! i think this one will grow on me though!!!! very witchy healing vibes imo

glory of the snow - YEAH!!!! i felt like the instrumentals were just a liiittle repetitive on this one but i loved them. so win ish??? UR SO RIFHT ON THE BROKEN RECORD THING THOUGH OH MY GOD I HEAR IT SO GOOD

pier 4 - i heard the acoustic version first which she performed for Palestine (fucking rad . fucking awesome) and i like. CRIED WHEN I FIRST HEARD IT HAHA. but honestly i absolutely loved this track and i was kinda scared she’d add more like. instrumentals cause I absolutely loved the acoustic so i’m so glad she didn’t do that :]

i couldn’t agree with you more genuinely. the meshing thing is very very relatable especially because of how the instruments fit very well together. i think so well that some of the tracks could just be one whole 20 minute song haha!!! AND THE THING ABOUT IT BEINF IN THE MIDDLE…. THE REPLAYABILITY… NOT BEINF ABLE TO COMPARE BECAUSE OF THEIR DIFFERENCES…. like. it’s everything I couldn’t wanted I think taking into mind how immunity and sling. were my favourites ever and were basically my favourite genres so i was kind of worried i wouldn’t like the new one. but NO!!! ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO ME THAT I EVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT NOW!!!!

also wanted to add +++ THE ALBUM. ITS SOOOO. FORESTY. IT REMINDS ME SO MUCH OF THE CHILDHOOD BOOK FROG AND TOAD OR THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS OR LIKE WINNIE THE POOH N THE HUNDRED ACRE WOODS. ITS HOMEY BUT THE HOME IS OUTSIDE. i aBSOLUTELY LOVE THIS ABOUT IT!!! i also saw this new picture which i think perfectly depicts the album!!!!

ANYWAY. RANKING!!!! I THINK I AGREE WITH U ON MOST BUT HERES MINE!!!! (it’ll probably change a lot depending on the days but yeah!!!!)

thank you
