Just thought I'd make her a thread after hearing her new song, had high hopes for the album after hearing Vampire but this new song is awful. 🙈 Thoughts?
 
I dislike her music.

Drivers Licence is one of the few songs I mute the radio for. It's pissing awful. So plinky plonky bollocks I hate.

Good For You was okay, but she doesn't enunciate very well, so it hard to know what she is singing sometimes and that annoys me.

Vampire feels like an amped up Drivers Licence and is pretty pissing irritating as well.

Also, she didn't deserve to be praised as the best on HSMTMTS. She wasn't.

I loved vampire but I’m not so sure about this one - it seems like it’s trying to hit the vibe of brutal but not quite getting there.

More importantly, which vinyl variant is everyone going for? I’m leaning towards the navy blue
 
I like the new song, I probably won’t go to play it again cos there’s not enough singing but I do think it’s good. Especially as it’s kind of solidifying her sound. Also love her voice

I love the navy the most but went for the Spotify picture disc as I figured the navy would be easier to get hold of after the fact.

I love Vampire, new song is growing on me. Sour was a really impressive debut so im intrigued for the rest of the album.

I was tempted by the picture disc but I never like the plastic sleeves they come in! It looked great though.
Did you get sour on vinyl? If so, which one? I went for the baby pink one but kind of wish I’d gone for a different colour

I just got standard black for Sour - it was one of the first vinyls I bought when I started getting them so I wasn’t really hunting out the cute ones. Now I’m a lot pickier though and love the colours so I’m a bit annoyed I have the black.

She doesn’t though? She writes with only one other writer/producer called Dan Nigro and he’s hardly a Max Martin or Dr Luke. Olivia is the biggest artist he’s worked with.

I can look at his Wikipedia and see that he's written songs for Kimbra, Kylie Minogue, Billy Idol, Caroline Polachek, Carlie Rae Jepsen, Louis Capaldi, Sky Ferreira, and Billy Eilish's brother, among others. Olivia is not the biggest artist he's worked with by a long shot, but Driver's License is definitely the biggest song he's ever written.
 
Olivia is currently bigger than all those artists you listed. And it’s not like he worked with Kylie Minogue, Carly Rae Jepsen etc. in their prime when they were commercial juggernauts, he worked with them when they weren’t that popular anymore — unlike Olivia.
 
Yay an Olivia thread! She said tour will be soon. I can't cope if it is as stressful as sour - I am still heartbroken I didn't get tickets :(

Not sure if it makes you feel better but I didn’t enjoy it. She was good - what I can hear from her anyway, because all the younger people in the room were screaming and crying so much I could hardly hear her. Funnily enough, my friends went to different venues than me and we all had the same complaint
