I loved that song so much I decided to start a new thread.

“Talk To Me” is pretty undeniable but I am somewhat side-eying the fact that a third of the album has been released already and we’ve got nearly 3 months til release day (plus “Blow My Mind” is, I’m guessing, a rework of her own old song)

Honey also had only 9 tracks but those songs had a lot of space to breathe; apparently this album is less than half an hour long.

Still! It’s Robyn, I’ll no doubt eat it all up

I didn’t know that "Talk To Me" was also already released.

apparently this album is less than half an hour long.

her four best albums are 31-38 minutes long so bring it on imo

"Talk to Me" is also a banger, can't wait for this album.

title track is kinda terrible

broadly i don't think i'm going to like this album anywhere near as much as honey, it's just not the side of her that i want

i'm having a hard time getting past this album title, seeing it is like smelling vinegar after someone's cleaned a bathroom. i liked honey quite a bit but just feel like moving on tbh. my 7 years of trying to fit in to 'gay' by liking this sort of thing are done and dusted.

"talk to me" is great, this is what I can use when it's grey and miserable out

I love the beats of "Sexistential" and didn't pay attention to the lyrics until the third time, oh boy.

Speaking of, there is only one Sabrina Carpenter.

neither of these songs are really grabbing me unfortunately but I'm glad an album is coming out and I'll certainly go see her if she tours.

New song sounds like “we are the robots” so it’s much more my gear.

New version, but song is from Don’t Stop The Music.

album is pretty slight, "into the sun" is the highlight easily and i wish anything else came close, the title track is still ridiculous and kinda terrible

I was looking forward to this, sounds like it .might be like Lorde last year. Looking forward to being blown away but left me cold.

Shouldn't have started a new thread, did see it on a recent best of '26 so far list and was surprised. I do need to give it another listen, having not given it any time.
