A poster from ATRL attended the #ZEDDTrueColors event in Atlanta and he said that Zedd wanted Katy Perry to sing on "Straight Into the Fire", but he couldn't get her. Who's the vocalist on Daisy? That poster also mentioned that Zedd told them that Julia Michaels is the singer on this track. I'm not surprised. When was the last time she did a feature? Has she even done one since Teenage Dream? It's part politics, part timing. Like with people turning down Kelly Clarkson. What do they get out of it? |

Wikipedia is listing Jacob Luttrell and Tim James as the vocalists of Done With Love & True Colors respectively. Is this true?

I feel like "Transmission" was set up by Interscope to get X Ambassadors and Logic some exposure. But damn, that song is good. Probably my favorite from the album.

Tim James is indeed the vocalist of "True Colors" because of this tweet from the Empire State Building's Twitter account, as well as "Done With Love" is sung by Jacob Luttrell because of this article from Spin. |

True Colors is one of the best songs of the year. I feel like it could be the new Titanium and I also wish Ke$ha Kesha was the vocalist as this is exactly what I envision her doing for her next album. Other favorites include Done With Love and Papercut.

Seeing him at Firefly in a few days. I don't know anything he has done outside of Clarity and the production he did for GaGa but I am excited!

I bought this album a few weeks ago and I'm enjoying it. I don't particularly dislike any of the songs, but there are a few I listen to more than others.
The highlights for me are "I Want You To Know", "Papercut" and "Daisy".

Finally got around to listening to this (I wanted to try Apple Music lol), and I didn't care for it at all. After "Transmission" it got really bland and uninteresting. "Addicted to a Memory", "Beautiful Now", and "Transmission" are all top-notch, but everything else can be left behind.

This could absolutely smash. It has a perfect sound, melody, and lyrics for her life right now. The public will devour this, at least initially, if the #FreeKesha popularity is any indication. Curious to see how radio and other entrenched players react to it, though.
Not to mention the serendipity that when this song first came out, people thought it was Kesha.
