Colton having a meltdown about people loving a song he doesn't get is so funny







Did you even listen to the lyrics? There was no big "beef" between them and it didn't start 2 weeks ago wtf are you saying, they've known each other for a long time and used to talk about making music together, but lately Charli has been feeling like she gets mixed signals from Lorde so she wrote this song and sent it to her. Lorde explains her mixed signals (Lorde doesn't love fame and being in the spotlight, plus has been dealing with inflammatory body problems in which she wrote about on her blog a couple years ago), but she didn't mean to make Charli feel like she hates her, in fact she idolizes her and didn't know Charli felt that way. On top of that, it's a genius marketing move to write a song about Lorde and then have Lorde sing on the remix, giving the internet what they wanted finally. We get a beautiful, sentimental song about two friends explaining their feelings toward each other and how much they idolize one another, that's it. They could have done it in private, but this way the fans get what they want and it's relatable af. Nothing bad or clunky about it except your weird takes.

"flipping the vibe from the mostly party girl first half to the more self-reflective second half" being self reflective is basically what the whole album is about imo, i think the party girl stuff is mostly meant to be ironic

"how was that a meltdown? yall are the ones having a meltdown in response to his messing around as usual"



Because he's posted the same thing multiple times on here and on RYM, just don't listen to the song if you don't like it, why do you care so much that other people love it? That's all.

And I find his insistency to try to prusaude people that the song actually sucks funny and felt like I should explain the lyrics to someone clearly stupid enough to not get them

hes not trying to persuade anyone, hes saying how he feels through hyperbole as a means of generating a reaction. basically the modus operandum of myself, him, smok, baseline, etc on this site

Rewind rules because of its bluntness.



Like, the face shape stuff is relatable but there's also the hysterical line about wanting to go back to a time where she didn't feel weird about calling the paparazzi on herself. Just kinda pulling back the curtain a little bit on her relationship with fame, alongside your boilerplate nostalgia. It's definitely not one of the most immediate standouts, but it's catchy as hell with punchy production and those Ariana harmonies are fantastic. It's a testament to the strength of the rest of the album that it's NOT a standout
