Everyone keeps talking about when she sings "don't treat me that way" but the real tea is her background ooooh ooh's at the 0:39 2:03 and 3:16 drop that sound like she's howling.

Alert me when this shit is over Lying loud (through it all) Cut your face (from the fall) When you're hurt (who'd you call?) I can't answer now Spent the rent (on a high One-way street (to the skies) Clean it up (watch you die) It's yours to decide Powder, pow-pow-powder Powder, pow-pow-powder Show me a picture you paint of someone else Lived a double life, wish I was surprised Eyes rollin' back to your head, and I'm wonderin' how I recognize your face, put it all to waste And I know it's a cry for help, go help yourself I opened a million doors, you never go It's past point of no return, when will we learn? Alert me when this shit is over Lying loud (through it all) Cut your face (from the fall) When you're hurt (who'd you call?)

Ok off topic but I saw a video about how in the k-12 movie Angelita and crybaby said that in another life they could’ve been conjoined twins. And the creature has 4 eyes. And in most of her songs, her voice sounds like two voices kind of (if you listen close enough. It’s easier to notice in the backing vocals like this) and I just think it’s a kinda cool theory. Probably not true, but still cool 😭
nope! you’re right about the first part, but the only reason there’s 2 voices is because it’s backing vocals to make the song more lively. it would be boring without them. melanie would record the main vocals, another set of vocals where she sings differently but the same lyrics, and then the last vocals with complete autotune and she just makes it quieter than the actual lyrics we hear. that’s backing vocals! good theory though ❤
@@melanies_version_0 I know that. I just think that it would’ve been a cool theory in another storyline maybe. It isn’t even mine I saw it in a video 🤷🏽♀️
