Thanks for the React and thanks for Guitargate! Every song takes you deeper in the rabbit hole! I'll be at her concert opening for Noah Kahan next month. Maybe I can give her the silent and respectful headnod!
BEING FROM LA, I HAD TO GET OUT BY AGE 21, MOVED TO SAN DIEGO AND PURSUED MY MUSIC CAREER THERE. AFTER 27 YEAR IN SD, I HAD TO GET OUT OF THERE AND CALI COMPLETELY !!!
Great video today. Definitely had major feels on this one. Kinda hit close to home for me. Im not in LA but theres certainly a vicious cycle im always trying to avoid here. Thanks for sharing this one! Much love to everyone!! ❤ PS - Friendly reminder: A good deed every day will keep the devil at bay.
It's a great song with a lot of feeling that encapsulates the forlorn feeling of the modern world. Not a fan of her singing style at all but really enjoyed listening the stories about LA. I think we Europeans find it hard to imagine...
🔊 Real OldSchool Hollywood ended in 1995 = regarding Entertainment Biz = If U were Lucky , the Key was to be associated w / the Genuine Artists & non-Networky people ! Net~workers, WannaBees & BiznessBozos w No Talent are the ones who give LA a Terrible Rep & Ruin the Thriving Art Driven Subcultures = I was & still A Lifetime Member of the #RhymeSyndicate whom members went on to form House of Pain , Famous DJ's , BodyCount Black Metal = we didn't play that Hwood BS out-of-town Clowns that have bad attitudes & Got Respect from the Real Artists like Perry / JanesAddiction or DeadKennedys , those days ended completely by 1999⚡⚡⚡
Cool but this style of vocals is not my cup of tea at all. What is it?!?!?!?? They all do it nowadays. It’s like a fake thing…however the more I listen she certainly is talented and can sing for sure. Once she started getting in it, it did her.
I know exactly what you mean. I feel it all the time when I hear talented pop vocalists who seem to use the same accent/cadence/whatever it is. But I think her voice is much more unique than what you're talking about.
It started with singers that really did have accents that affected their pronunciation or had truly unique voices. Joanna Newsom. Fiona Apple. Bjork. As it trickled down to influence artists in the late 2000s it showed up as the "indie girl voice". Singing with more air. Swallowing your words. A more "lazy" approach to phrasing vs more bubblegum or diva pop. It was bubbling up and people like Lorde and Halsey really made it go mainstream. Just like how Blink became a blueprint for the "Pop-Punk voice".
I just can't stand that cursive vocal style...every "s" sounds like "sh", like a mouth full of marbles. I'm sorry, I love a lot of kinds of music but just not this. Lyrics are good but there's ten a penny of these songs on social media. I'm sure there's people who are into it, hope she connects with them and does well.
