How are people disliking A Lonely Night? :dwillhuh:

To me that song and I Feel It Coming captures the feel of an MJ song more than anything he's done
No one is hating on A Lonely Night. That is the closest to MJ I have heard since he passed. I could not believe my own ears when I first heard it.

So far the consistent skips for me are...
False Alarm
Rockin'
Stargirl Interlude
A Lonely Night

Songs that are hit or miss depending on mood...
Secrets
Love to Lay
Nothing Without You
Kendrick's verse on Sidewalks
Die For You

:ehh:

Everything else is good to great. I'm glad I didn't venture into this thread until after I listened to this album myself though. It's much easier to formulate a true opinion on shyt without reading stan reactions before hand.
Love to Lay sounds like a remedial version of "Belong to the World" and that Kendrick verse is awful are you y'all just longing for something new for "dot:mjlol:"

I like Belong to the World a lot more than Love to Lay. It's like the PG version of a better song he's done... But that's how a lot of his shyt is now. Tamed and safer versions of his real shyt.

It absolutely is. It's on par with his other albums, but Daft Punk really curved the mood by opening and closing the project, which helps give it the edge over his other work. And I Feel It Coming is the best track on the album. :whew:
He got nothing on here that sounds like it's from his soul though b. I think you seriously underrating a ton of his shyt. Then again, you probably like the more poppy Weeknd.

I liked it. I just think he held himself back a bit in order to be more mainstream. Some of these songs are just really not interesting. Too many of them follow the same format lyrically and I dont think he needed to do that. Reminder is fire tho. Wish he would have kept that vibe more throughout the album.

album flows a lot better than the last one and whoever okayed that Alarm song or whatever it's called needs to be pulled up on :trash:

Aside from that I could let the whole shyt play.
