I take it back this is better than Dedicated. And Sort the Whole Thing I just assume is like a mini attempt at PC music inspired song cos she is mates with a few of the big people?

IF CRJ leans more into weird sounds and tribal the next time around, that might be the peak her career. I think of her as a future producer tbh. A good one.



Her lyrics are getting worse, and they were never good. She and TS are on opposite paths lol

After hearing it, I feel it is a nice companion to Dedicated. Should have the same good rating. Dedicated maybe is a bit more consistent, but Dedicated Side B has some of her best songs and I really like the tempo.

"sounds like a kids song"



best song next to Solo yeah.





And I don't love California but its slower tempo makes it feel like a real wrapup track, which makes it nice as a closer.

It's ridiculous how much better this is than OG Dedicated. Pop music having one hell of a year in 2020.

This album is, by far, the funnest that's been released this year. Carly has this trick, which seems amazingly effortless to her, where she manages to embody the abstract ideals of what each style/genre/decade she tries sounds like. Like, "This is What They Say" sounds like the best late-80s/early-90s electronic pop song that always existed but nobody had heard until Carly just plucked it from the ether. Same thing with "Now I Don't Hate California...," which sounds like the perfect anthem for lazing on a cot between palm trees at sunset, smelling the sand, listening to the waves crash, sipping a Mai Tai, and feeling the sun on your skin. Not sure if I'm quite ready to put it on par with Emotion, but it's damn great.

@SowingSeason: "I think there's some truth to this especially re: Swift losing her charm; everything she writes now sounds the same."



I think that's close to the opposite of true. Lover was, by far, her most diverse album. Most every album before that had a distinct style/sound that pervaded the album (Red was an exception, and Speak Now to a lesser extent), but almost every song on Lover (save a few towards the end) sound different. Maybe Swift's lost some of the charm, but she's matured as an artist and songwriter; charm fits a naive teenager/early-20's girl, not someone who's now in their 30s. Carly can still do charm because she (or at least her character) is just a teenager trapped inside the body of a 34-year-old.

Let's Sort... is basically if someone frankensteined a pop-punk song and a bubblegum pop song by replacing the vocals/guitar of the former with the vocals/synths of the latter. It's cute/charming in its own way.
