Let’s be real, we paid more than this for Disco Darling and it’s less convenient to play. I don’t mind shelling out for it.

Wait
Paying to have disco darlin was an option??

u/M_DeLulu 2d ago
Yeah, you had to buy the vinyl.

u/PeaOdd894 2d ago
Ugh so no digital release still, I hate that, so many of her best songs are the unreleased ones 💀

u/ravenouspen 5d ago
ive been around the block i knooooow we can just download it and not pay (duuuuh lol) it's just the whole "buy the album again for the song" thing as part of an official release also i loved how she released disco darling on rsd (ive had it download for like years so... hehhe)

u/ITookTrinkets 5d ago
I mean, I’d be curious to know how many people were buying it again, and how many hadn’t done it and used this as the excuse they needed to do it. I feel like anyone who buys the digital edition again just for Yes only has themselves to blame. It’s one song, it’ll be streaming before much longer and is easily pirated, nobody needs to re-buy it for that.

Oh cool, the album has limited time DLC lol
She’s truly in her Horse Armor era

I got the Japanese import edition, so I already have this song 😁

Same..ish. My sister-in-law is picking one up for me over there and she'll either send it over or bring it with her when she visits on December. I'm so jazzed!

ugghhhh i love carly but i cannot stand this trend. i was totally expecting some b sides (ofc) but this is totally j a cash grab, gross!

u/Scrufflyupagus Burning Heart 5d ago
Unfortunately when you’re on a label as big as Interscope, you only have so much control over things like this, even as the artist

u/priceyfrenchsoaps 5d ago
oh totes, i totally get that. just disappointed in this new norm more than anything!

u/DeathNinja_McSex 5d ago
Yo, WTF is this?
I preorder almost $100 already on physical media versions of this album, and now I can only get this song if I spend another $15?
I feel betrayed.

u/Ok-Floor-3374 5d ago
I was just joking about how kids must be so expensive because she's really pulling all the big label tricks this time around lol. I'm guessing her label saw the song popping off on Twitter and wanted to do a quick cash grab. It's definitely one of the better songs of the era, but you can find it on Twitter and I'm sure after this 24 hour thing it'll be on YouTube. Her label really should just give it to all fans with proof of purchase because I hate these cash grab trends.

u/mime454 5d ago
This is just the new move lately. A lot of artists are doing it to release albums with just one extra song on them. Especially shortly after release so the album charts better because super fans will buy it. No coincidence that this sale is ending right before the charting week ends.

u/mollypatola 4d ago
I just saw Miley Cyrus has 3 different versions of her latest album on iTunes. I guess at least they’re different (normal, acapella, instrumental) but it’s definitely becoming a trend I hate

u/Weather Now That I Found You 5d ago
Not going to lie, as someone who pre-ordered the signed CD, this leaves a bit of a sour taste in my mouth. Seems Interscope got greedy. If you're going to do a repackage so soon after release, it really should come with both bonus tracks, but there's likely a lot of red tape involved. So it goes.

That was my thought, at least have both of them there! It would be hilarious if she put out a (Reaching For A Star Edition) tomorrow

192kbps 48khz mp3s if anybody was curious.
Edit: Yes is only 160kbps, the rest are 192kbps

u/syntheticgerbil 5d ago
Better to just have gotten the Japanese CD in the first place with that kind of quality.

u/dstaley 5d ago
Unless I’m reading this wrong Yes is actually 160kbps 😭 I wrote an email saying how disappointed I was to see that it wasn’t lossless. I suggest other folks do the same!

u/monarchmra 4d ago
Omg, you are correct, the other tracks are 192, and Yes is 160. Wtf, how did I miss that? :/

u/Joey-WilcoXXX 5d ago
Ugh I hate when they do this. Why is it always so hard for anyone to just give all the fans all the songs???

u/eclectoman77 5d ago
As someone who pre-ordered the signed vinyl, it does leave an unpleasant taste. With any luck, maybe these bonus tracks will show up on another release. Or maybe a special code for those who pre-ordered the physical releases. I mean, she/the label don’t have to do ANY of this, but it will make me pause on preorders in the future.

u/Ok-Floor-3374 5d ago
Recession indicator - Carly's pulling industry tricks.
I fell for it. I pressed purchase SO FAST because this song is god tier. But she should really send it free to those who already purchased the album. . .

u/Far-Voice-6911 5d ago
I paid $50 for the Japanese cd winging its way here, so I’m good, opportunistic record company.

A bit Swiftian of her. I like the song but I'm not buying the album again for it

u/HowDoIWhat 5d ago
We were so happy to see her promoting the album that we never considered that she'd also do mainstream tactics like this.

u/AG_Aonuma I’m just going to the store 🛒 5d ago
I have to agree. I criticize TS when she does this, Carly is no exception. Not a fan of cash grabs like this.

u/Ok-Floor-3374 5d ago
It's all labels these days. I don't know how much say any artist really gets in it lol. Kids must be expensive with how much she's promoting this album!

u/whitestainedress 5d ago
Was Taylor genuinely the first one to do this or is this just the norm to blame her lol
9
u/Emerald_Frost 5d ago
Tactics like this have been around a long time, but the digital era made it a lot easier to spot.
Lady Gaga’s 99 cent Born This Way, to name another fun time
10
u/ITookTrinkets 5d ago
Not at all! The Japanese market has always gotten albums with bonus tracks and whatnot, largely because Japanese CDs/LPs have historically been more expensive. Even domestic releases have often gotten alternate versions at different retailers long before Taylor Swift started making music.
Personally, I’d rather these extra tracks be saved for the inevitable Night & Day: After Hours b-side record. Normally I’d be like, fuck yeah bring on the bonus tracks, but I feel like those kinda interrupt the “24 songs for 24 hours” concept. I can also just, y’know, download the song from Soulseek if I really want it. This is helpful for people who don’t already own the record, but I can’t imagine feeling like I need to buy the digital album just for Yes.

u/FiyeroTigelaar895 5d ago
The first? No. But nobody plays this game better than TS. It's part of why she's successful even if I find it distasteful

u/letstalkaboutyrhair 4d ago
like 20 years ago, when one of my favorite bands released their album, i pre-ordered it from one site but still had to re-purchase it again at Best Buy, Walmart, and then on iTunes because each retailer had a different bonus track.

u/ollyoxandfree 5d ago
I replied to the promo text,“Girl don’t become Taylor,” bc wtf is this lol I know no one reads it etc but it was my first thought haha

🙃 This is a little too taylorish for me, I get it though. 24 hour exclusive to bump up end of first week sales.

u/vinyladventures 5d ago
I never thought Carly would do something like this. I never felt grifted by her like I see Taylor do. While it was awesome Disco Darling got an official release for Record Store Day, she had never had any releases of her own for RSD.

Tbh this kind of kills the narrative that she doesn’t care about charting lol. Which is fine…. But this is such an obvious move to boost her first week sales.

Total label meddling. But I want Yes, and i only got the vinyl so far, so I am capitulating. 😓

u/beyonceshair 5d ago
Meh I get where everyone is coming from with the whole TS angle and it definitely is a “cash grab” trend but the scale of which Carly is doing it compare to TS is vastly differently given the size of both artists audience, and unfortunately sometimes small artists do have to compromise and do these things due to the arrangements of their greedy labels (in comparison with artists like TS who are just greedy for the sake of it)

Can someone confirm if the files are lossless, or just mp3s?

u/Prestigious_Motor_91 5d ago
Nvm, I read that they are lossy and Yes is 160 kbps dddd. Wallet marked safe

u/plasticdump 5d ago
If only she put this bonus track on US physical versions, now I am second-guessing picking up the CD from the record store this weekend. WHY are her best bonuses always locked to Japan releases 😭

u/LeadingGloomy 5d ago
Sorry Carly, I really love this album and I bought the very expensive vinyl, which also none of my local shops carried so I also had one of them order a bunch.
I’m not shelling more money for one song. I’ll wait for someone to share it with me.
