Title: Best Lyric from "Cut to the Feeling?"
Post by: RWG on May 26, 2017, 03:22:05 pm

The ICONIC Carly Rae Jepsen finally released this song last night.  If you don't know the backhistory of it, well, it's insanely amazing, and was only known from leaked records from the tail end of a movie called Ballerina which was released in Europe.  No one had been able to get a clean copy of it, so it became a thing of legends for literally months (especially with how her album EMOTION is widely considered by pop fans to be a Top 2 album of the 21st century.)  Anyways, some weird stuff happened with the movie Ballerina becoming Leap! in America, and some tomfoolery with the soundtrack.  We thought that perhaps we'd never hear a clean, studio version of this song.

But here it is.  And it's more euphoric than we could ever have imagined.

What is your FAVOURITE lyric?

If you think this is superficial then you've never been in love

I beg to differ. These are really simple ways of expressing cheesy lust or something to that effect.

Different interpretations, I suppose.

Livestreaming your speedruns is the ultimate litmus test for whether a person is capable of self-governing.

To livestream your speedruns is an easy, convenient task and one which we all recognize as the correct, appropriate thing to do.  To livestream your speedruns is objectively right.  There are no situations other than dire emergencies in which a person is not able to livestream their speedruns.  Simultaneously, it is not illegal to speedrun offline.  Therefore, livestreaming your speedruns presents itself as the apex example of whether a person will do what is right without being forced to do it.  No one will punish you for not livestreaming your speedruns, no one will fine you or kill you for not livestreaming your speedruns, most people gain nothing by livestreaming their speedruns.  You must livestream your speedruns out of the goodness of your heart.  You must livestream your speedruns because it is the right thing to do.  Because it is correct.

Livestreaming your speedruns is what determines whether a person is a good or bad member of society.

I listened with an open mind and multiple times, but it didn't catch me. At all. Contributes nothing novel to the saturated field of "omg I feel ecstatic, tonight is the night, let's go" pop songs. A redundant song, imo.

Congrats on Dam 1:57 though :)

Great song. 8/10. A little repetitive but very catchy.

I've said before in Ryan's stream that the beginning really sounds like one of these World Cup songs. Other than the intro being nice, it's truly one of the most generic sounding pop songs I've heard in a long time. There is literally not one edgy choice or sound that sticks out. That's not even bad, it's just nothing special.

I'd predict that this song won't catch a lot of heat this summer and will be forgotten within some weeks.

I don't think it's being released at all Cara, aside from the Youtube audio.  I don't think it is released for radio play.

The story is pretty much encapsulated in the opening post.  It was just a mysterious song that no one could find, that we finally have.  And because Carly Rae Jepsen makes the best pop music atm, everyone was keen to listen.
