the chorus quasi scatting is the cilantro of pop this year, making the whole song unpalatable to a select group (including me)

I'd nominate Richard Dawson as someone who has a similar level of love/hate divide on here as The 1975.
I don't see them having two songs still to come, yet at the same time it would be odd if Give Yourself A Try was the second most popular song from the album.

Yeah, I would like this but for the central pun(s?) of the chorus - it's too distracting.

Just to backtrack for a second, 'hollowness' and 'ennui' are the last words I'd use to describe Astral Weeks (except for 'Slim Slow Slider', maybe). VM's possessed utterances have nothing in common with LDR's smooth nihilism. Unless it was meant as a commentary on millennial disaffection, which may or may not be an actual thing.

Boo'd Up what a vibe. Well-deserved.

why is she singing 'hen fap' in the chorus

Based on my first encounter with this song, I think I too am a member of that select group, Simon. Coriander rules though.

I regret not pitching an essay on her album; we'll still be talking about it in a few years.

cos she sounds american until the spoken word at the end of the song?

the video version omits that, you gotta listen on a streaming service or find audio elsewhere to hear it

“Boo’d Up” is sounding pretty good right now, but I never got past “nice vibe” with this one. Still don’t get it, it’s too retro to feel really special to me, I guess.

I've heard Boo'd Up on the radio a lot. I didn't know credible people think it's a great song. The beat compares unfavorably to like every R&B DJ Khaled beat
