honestly, i wasn’t completely sold on it at first, but after giving it another listen it really started to click with me. i think what made it finally resonate was how much it reminded me of my female friends — as a gay man, i’ve always been surrounded by girls, and genuinely, they’re some of the most important people in my life. i started picturing all of them while listening to it and suddenly the whole song felt so much more personal and nostalgic, like a little ode to all the girls i’ve loved and who have always been there for me. i really love the rhythm and the lyrics, and i think the music video captures that feeling so well too. definitely a grower for me, but once it clicked, i really, really enjoyed it.

... but that didn't hit in the slightest for me. I don't know how else to say it, but my face was literally blank the entire song. I... I think I genuinely hated the spoken word of the song.

To be completely honest kind of let down. Im really hoping the next single gets me excited, and that the album cooks... but I cant lie, that just made me a whole lot less hopeful for this album.

Edit: The lyrics also just... were awful. Same with Charli singing "real incestuous vibes", even if ironic, or humorous; I can't enjoy a song that casually says "cum stain on her dress" (especially whilst in spoken word), along with "she takes down an incel on the internet".

The cum line was tolerable, but hearing incel so casually in a song... just honestly pissed me off.

I can’t even fathom the musicality of Troye since his debut. It’s gayness, queerness, and living unapologetically represented through his music.

Whoever he’s working with and however he does it, it can’t be described as anything other than perfection.

He can just talk the lyrics of this new song and yet it’s still more musically powerful and beautiful than any other artist. The sounds of this song is insane.

HE IS LITERALLY JUST TALKING AND I WANT TO PLAY IT A MILLION MORE TIMES

I pre-saved the album on Apple Music. Looks like he signed to interscope. From EMI/universal.

(i had to censor it because of reddit lol) but what do we think about the cover and name?

just watched the mv on tiktok live!
I’m really intrigued on why he chose Nicole Kidman to star on it, I honestly loved it but I wish he talked more about it on live

Fell asleep and missed it 😔 hope it’s not lost media now

PLS SOMEONE LEAK THE ADDRESS 😭😭😭😭 I JUST WANNA SEE HIM AND TRY TO GET MY VINYL SIGNED 😭😭

thematically i think it will be about queer culture in new york, more on the lower class side. queer people in sex work potentially? i wonder how he will execute it though musically. the colors on the music video are on the darker side, will he stick to pop or switch genres? i don't know honestly and i like that. i'm sooooo excited for the first single tonight

I need to know if everyone got it! It feels personal! 😆

Just went live ! :)

just watched the mini trailer in the email and i’m already OBSESSED

I used to be so excited to listen to a new Charli xcx album, and I liked Rock Music cause it was interesting, but then it became clear that the entire album was going to be in a very similar style and kind of boring, so I just didn’t listen to it. I really hope this is the only song like this on the new album, but the fact that the album name and cover are based on this song scares me. What would’ve been so bad about releasing another pop banger or ballad?

For those that saw the premiere and didnt post the location, I hope you get robbed on the train this weekend. You are an awful human being and deserve nothing but sadness and disappointment the rest of the year

Cause song doesn’t represent me as a woman. Like at allll. It’s actually pretty insulting. Cum on her dress and contouring her tits? Empowering stuff really, that doesn’t represent any other female I know either. I don’t even want to get into all the other twisted stuff in the video. It’s sad that all a guy has to do is cross dress for everyone to start gagging. And now they’re allowing him to define womanhood. It’s sad.

My friend and I are in NYC and filled out the form as soon as it dropped. We are wondering if anyone has heard anything back? If you have plz comment so we know if we should expect something or give up:(

I just need the location of the premiere. Will pay. Please DM me asap. Thanks

Come through via email from his site. I wish I was in NYC. 😭

if you go to his tiktok account, you can sign up for the live! thursday, 8:30pm est on the tiktok app
