Hi darling, how are you? Have you heard Selena Gomez's new album “RARE”? I'd love a review from you
hi babeeee! i’m good, i hope you are too 🥰 sorry this took a while, i wrote some tags for you so you knew i was doing it, hope you saw them? another anon asked me about this album (+ a follow up question and, spoiler alert!!! i agree w your take!) so i was already quite curious. i’ve been a little busy but finally, here it is
rare: omggg, from the start this is the kind of beat + sound that has me bopping immediately! it’s kind of heard and reminds me of taylor swift, especially when she vocalizes. the background music is so cute, i’m not being very technical here but that’s how i feel! i’m really liking it. i adore how she articulates it feels like before the refrain. fave lyrics: and i bet there’s somebody else out there to tell me i’m rare
8,5/10
dance again: wooooah when the beat dropssssss! this reminds me of an early 2000s song? best compliment i can give to a song basically. i love the pre-chorus and the little oooh oohs. lyrically it’s not impressive but still! fave lyrics: when i speak, my body listens
8-/10
look at her now: classic song that at first has me like meh and after a while grows on me and im like mh mh mh mh mh. let’s be real, it bangssss, although something in the metrics still sounds a little off for me?? idk. still, such a jam tbh. fave lyrics: wasn’t wrong, wasn’t right, what a thing to be human, made her more of a woman
8/10
lose you to love me: at first i felt this one was a bit too slow and whiny for me, but as i listened to it more, i got used to it and learned to appreciate it. fave lyrics: we’d always go into it blindly, i needed to lose you to find me, this dancing was killing me softly, i needed to hate you to love me
8-/10
ring: this sounddddd! so vintage!!!!! omggggg. love love love, it’s so old school and sexy, it sounds like burlesque. the words aren’t particularly poetic nor relatable (to me at least gjghjkkgk) but it sounds so fucking GOOD??? fave lyrics: i put it down, they call me up
9,5/10
vulnerable: the (pre?) chorus is my favourite part here. all in all it sounds very chill and like, a basic bop, background music but not in a bad way?? just maybe not extremely memorable, but then when she goes if i show you all my demons, that elevates the whole song and that’s the part that would drive me to listen to it again, it sounds so dreamy. fave lyrics: wrap your arms around my weakness if the only other option’s letting go
8-/10
people you know: very hypnotic, both the music and her voice, especially in the chorus. it might not be groundbreaking but it’s like… chill and easy to listen to while doing stuff, jammable, a bit repetitive but it works for the whole concept. not my fave overall, but i love the layering toward the end, when the whole sound gets a bit more complex. fave lyrics: when it was good we were on fire, now i’m breathing ashes and dust
7+/10
let me get me: WHATTTTTTT this is straight from the 90s??????? iconic!!!! no ok i love it very much, there’s something addictive about how it feels like it’s straight from another era, and the iiIIIiii and the ouUut, ah oOh, it’s like… obsession material. and a great bridge, something i’ll always appreciate in a song. fave lyrics: i’m so connected to me
10/10
crowded room: i don’t think selena would plagiarise the iconic ‘me & u’ by cassie (2006) soooo this is a homage????? wow selena truly is a 90s girl…… we have to stan. love love love this one, the falsetto part is perfection, her voice is so airy, a dream. fave lyrics: out on thin ice until you came over to break it
10/10
kinda crazy: byeeeeee i say this about every song but i’m starting to get this is whole album is very vintage sounding (the early 2000s are VINTAGE now ok??? we’re getting old), the chrous is >>>>>>, one of my faves for sure. fave lyrics: i think you’re kind of crazy, and not the good kind baby
10/10
fun: ok do i sound crazy if i say this reminds me of lorde?? or at least antonoff-produced taylor swift, especially in the reputation era (which also reminded me of lorde). the chrous is soooo lorde and when she goes fun then it’s taylor but anywayy. a good song! maybe idk, the fact that it reminds me so much of someone else’s sound makes me love it a bit less than it deserves, but i still do! fave lyrics: put a gold star on my disorder
7,5/10
cut you off: again, the chrous is swiftyyyy. a soft but empowering tune, there’s something sensual about it which i love. maybe not my fave bc it’s not like… addictive, more like chillout lounge music, i wouldn’t go crazy over it, but very nice. cool instrumental around minute 2 or so! fave lyrics: how could i confuse that shit for love?
7,5/10
a sweeter place: this one sounds cosy, if that makes sense? some part i really love, others not really, maybe my least fave at least for now, but all in all i still really like it! fave lyrics: i can’t believe i can be loud, holding hands with the darkness
7/10
ok so in conclusion, WOW?? tbh i wasn’t expecting this, not that i don’t like selena bc i’ve been obsessed w some of her singles since ‘naturally’ or ‘i love you like a love song’ (good old selena gomez & the scene! not to mention ‘good for you’ like… that shit is hot) but i wasn’t prepared to something this consisently good?? like maybe i won’t listen to it on repeat for months as i do with some albums but i wouldn’t skip any song, not to mention some are true gems (and jams) that will go on my january playlist! thank you (actually, thank both my selena anons!) for having me do this, i probably would have missed this relase otherwise and that would have been a shame bc it’s pretty great
let me know what you think, if you feel like it, as usual♡

10 songs I’ve been listening to
I was tagged by @bitterrglitter, one of the absolute joys of my dash, to spill the dirt on what’s in my current rota, and we all know I’m a huge narse who LOVES DOING THESE, so in no particular order, here we go! I’ll even give you links, I don’t even care!
1. Dua Lipa, “Don’t Start Now” - it’s been out for a while, but it’s a big win on the current walk mix (me as the top youtube comment saying we can already hear this in every Zara and H&M across the land, and what about it, it’s a bop!)
2. Louis Tomlinson, “Walls” - help, it’s been about 24 hours, but this song and every single one of its 5+ layers kill my mind, to turn a phrase (my latest wall stare is what it must be like to see Louis chit chat with Noel G, the zingers!)
3. Harry Styles, “She” (She!) - this song is like quicksand, I start thinking about it or listening to it, and I get sucked into a vortex and softly mutter motherFUCKER 15 times, even that guitar frenzyyyyy that bubbles up into a soothing lullaby
4. Princess Superstar + A. Turk, “Supersonic Bitch” - it’s old but gold, and I’ll go to my grave thinking she should have won a grammy for the period song she wrote for Lunette menstrual cups (this one’s grand, too!)
5. Stormzy, “Vossi Bop” - I know, I know, but I’m still obsessed with this album, I drive around letting it pulse me through random traffic situations, and it honest-to-god helps, especially this bop (<---- see what I did there)
6. The Big Moon, “Don’t Think” - god, I love these guys, and this is from their new album that either just came out or is just about to come out, idk, I’m just in love with the kinda country twang of this one? First Aid Kit-ish echo??
7. Orville Peck, “I Will Always Love You” - THAT’S RIGHT, HE’S OUT THERE COVERING DOLLY MOTHERFUCKING PARTON!!! And we all think of Whitney on this one, but he makes it so croony and dreamy, swoony and beamy
8. FKA Twigs, “sad day” - a staple on my focus in and WORK mix, the album in general is so good, but I go back and forth on fave song, and I think it’s this one, judging by my “you’ve heard this 15 times this week” metrics, lmao
9. Arctic Monkeys, “The Ultracheese” - every single LINE of this song is perfection, the chef’s kiss on the album’s cohesive theme, “What a death I died writing that song, Start to finish, with you looking on, It stays between us, Steinway and his sons, 'Cause it's the ultracheese”...IT SURE IS, I LOVE YOU
10. X-Ray Spex, “Germ Free Adolescent” - I adore Poly Styrene, but the documentary I just watched a week or so ago made me love her even more, and this song, Jesus, the lyrics, everything, sigh
I tag @alienfuckeronmain, @vondrostes, @setsailtomorrow, @vondrostes, @pattern-pals, @statementsue, @kerasines, and anyone else I can’t think of because I’m literally running out the door.
