so the ballads are kind of boring but this is them well and truly delivering on everything they promised when performing "don't let go" on x-factor
"competition"! perrie's crazy note on "about the boy"! and the bonus tracks are great as well, wish they were all on the album proper instead of the 3 ballads tbh.

That version of "Word Up" is pointless.

Love the song and video. They've come such a long way.

New single: http://www.josepvinaixa.com/blog/little-mix-black-magic/
the first part of the chorus sounds a lot like something i've heard before - maybe by kelly clarkson? i can't place it and it's driving me crazy.
― bae sremmurd (monotony), Wednesday, 20 May 2015 13:17 (nine years ago) link
The chorus reminded me a bit of Blank Space. I think this a brilliant single. Not quite in the same league as Move but still really great.
― Kitchen Person, Wednesday, 20 May 2015 13:30 (nine years ago) link
It's a melange of the Blank Space chorus and the second half of the chorus on Kelly Clarkson's "Mr Know It All" (finally deducing this was a highlight of my day).
The result is something like what I'd imagine Jeppo is cooking up for her album, i'm here for it although i hope they haven't lost their weirdness ("Move", still a belter, was such a charmingly odd thing)

video is like you took the problematic grain of "you belong with me" and took it to its nastiest end point. leave the poor girl who just wants to chill with her bf alone this is not edifying
― lex pretend, Friday, 29 May 2015 21:15 (nine years ago) link
Yeah I'm not crazy about the video but I love the song.
Just listening to their last album. Move really is one of my favourite singles of the last five years, it's perfect.

the snippet I heard of "weird people" sounded promising. feel doubtful that this new album will top salute but still looking forward to it
― carly bae jepsen (monotony), Tuesday, 20 October 2015 04:07 (eight years ago) link
New album nowhere near as good as Salute but still a handful of very good songs on there.
OMG is great

I'm finding it really hard to love this band. After Salute I really thought they were on the verge of being the amazing group I always wanted them to be. After playing it so safe on Get Weird I was hoping they'd come back with something better than Shout Out To My Ex. The verses just aren't really there and the chorus is a blatant rip off of Ugly Heart. Very disappointing. https://youtu.be/mJSHMRZSPdQ
― Kitchen Person, Monday, 17 October 2016 15:40 (seven years ago) link
i get an "accelerated 'Shake it Out'" impression from the chorus also
― art baengels (monotony), Tuesday, 18 October 2016 00:56 (seven years ago) link
Jesy's departure and reason for it is hardly a surprise, but the fact that she's basically been cyberbullied out of the band is a damning indictment on the state of the world in 2020

what happened exactly? news reports are very coy

she's been relentlessly harassed online her entire career, idk if something particular was the final straw for her though
― ufo, Wednesday, 16 December 2020 00:23 (three years ago) link
I haven't seen anything about a specific incident or anything, but it's been nearly a decade since they won X Factor and even then she was not just being relentlessly trolled, but it was substantial enough that it became part of the band's narrative and brand. That's a lot for anyone.
Can you imagine a girl group having success from 1991 to 2000 the way they've stayed consistent over their decade?
