Song is pretty good, not up to par with the very best of Strange Desire, but still strong.

Agreed sowing. Love this project though, I can live happily with plenty more bleachers records and not another album from fun.
|
| |
I want both tbh. I get an unreasonable amount of enjoyment from Nate Ruess' vocals. But if only one project could survive, I'd pull for this.
|
| |
Love it. Need to relisten to Strange Desire.
|
| |
There's just something infectious about Jack's ability to write a really good pop song, with huge hooks and that you're addicted to within the opening seconds of each track. Strange Desire is a perfect record to listen to in the summer while driving with the windows down.
|
| |
Agreed. "I Wanna Get Better" literally shattered my ability to listen to any other song for about 2 weeks after I heard it. Just too damn catchy.
|
| |
Wait, "formerly of Fun." ?
|
| |
Rollercoaster steals the cake for me, but I was in the same boat, I remember hearing I Wanna Get Better for the first time before the record dropped and I listened to almost nothing else.
|
| |
I think Fun. are just on hiatus, but nothing new seems to be in the works at all.
|
| |
yeah he used to play lead guitars for fun.
|
| |
Oh okay, thought he left the band.
|
| |
oh I can get how that's deceptively worded...don't know if he is actually not in Fun. anymore, but what JWT said.
|
| |
Nope, never officially left but I don't think fun. will be releasing anything anytime soon.
|
| |
pretty alright
|
| |
this is some 80s nostalgia pop goodness, this project is so solid. I'm looking forward to the album
|
| |
Really loving the 80s vibes from this, glad to see they're keeping that.
Also fun. won't get back together for quite a long time I predict.
|
| |
so fucking good. Jack is such a great pop songwriter.
|
| |
generally I like what I've heard when he writes other people's stuff like TSwift and Lorde etc. but I can't get behind Bleachers. Sounds super basic to me or something ¯_(ツ)_/¯
|
| |
how did I not know he worked with the swizzle?
|
| |
solid track
|
| |
He know how to write those larger than life pop-hooks. Dig it.
(That Lorde appeareance is about as visible/important as that Janelle Monae appearance on "We are young")
|
| |
Solid song. Strange Desire was great, and this sounds like another song straight from that sound which is good in my book.
I like fun. as well, but Bleachers perfectly fits for that summery vibe.
|

I liked when this dude was singing in his lower register on this song, but the chorus has some of the worst layered gang vocals I've ever heard. It's a hard 2/5, maybe a soft 2.5/5. Far better than fun. at the very least.
|
| |
yah this is really good, not quite as rock solid as Like a River Runs or Rollercoaster, but man can the dude write a pop hook
|
| |
This has grown on me quite a bit over the weekend.
