Excited for the new stuff, against all odds. I really wanted to dislike her LOL.

Here hoping Never Be The Same is her #1 smash in the US to do justice for Havana.

This is what being in heaven must feel like.
All the new stuff coming out makes me so happy and super excited. I hope the album booklet includes the lyrics and are in her own handwriting just like in those Instagram posts.

Why was this album cover approved? With all the sexual allegations going around I’d have expected her to be woke. Anyway excited for new music ... what does this cover have to do with sexual allegations? Telling women to start covering up is the exact opposite of what you should be taking away from what's going on right now. I don't think it's a matter of covering up, I think the issue is the idea that as a woman she must be overly sexualized in order to get attention.

Make the 'Never Be the Same' image album cover! It's a stunning shot.

This is one of the album rollouts I'm most excited about. I have high expectations and I'm pretty sure she's gonna deliver.

Looks like OMG was dropped from the album too? It's not included as one of the pre-release tracks on the album.

So, "Crying in the Club", "I Have Questions" and "OMG" are all excluded from the final tracklist, which is quite stupid because I like pretty much all of them.

Never Be The Same is good but not sure if it's single material. Kinda underwhelming on 1st listen.

Can't believe CITC and OMG aren't on the album. I can't believe they aren't going to back OMG, what a throw-away of a song

This album has only 11 tracks and one of them is a radio edit of Never Be The Same. Girl...
Edit: What's the point of even having a radio edit of a song that isn't even 4 minutes long? Is it because of all the drug references? Mess. The song is decent but she sounds TERRIBLE. I would rather hear Selena cooing than this mewling.

OMG should be on the album, the album isn't even that long not to include this track.

If it is only eleven songs long, why not add OMG and Crying In The Club..? I don't see any reason not to add them

I can understand scrapping CITC cause it probably sounds nothing like the rest of the album but not including her best song OMG is just crazy since it was simultaneously released with Havana. Not to mention it'd help her get an RIAA certification sooner since it has a decent amount of streams already.
Out of the new songs, I really like Real Friends but she can keep the other one. It sounds a bit dated and badly mixed.

No way. She will DEFINITELY release a deluxe/exclusive version with all of the pre-released tracks and maybe 1-2 remixes? I mean, they'd be stupid not to.

I think an EP would be better right now and then do an album next year instead of rushing it like this. Why are there so few tracks? What happened to the 20 she was planning before?

Can't believe IHQ won't be on the record - that's an excellent song, I think that's a big mistake.

OMG is cool but I can see it not really fitting the vibe of the album going off Havana/Real Friends and the new single the name of which I can't remember right now...

To me, it doesn't really matter if the songs that were already released won't be on the album because I'm making my own version of the album with OMG, CITC, and IHQ. Then it would feel more complete to me.
I was most excited to hear the studio version of NBTS because that was the one song that I liked the most when she was touring with Bruno Mars. Now that I heard it, I'm a bit whelmed upon first listen. I thought it was just me, but now that someone else mentioned it above, the mixing sounds off somewhat. I think I prefer the radio edit because it sounds better sonically.
Real Friends...oh man. I don't want to say this sounds like she's singing about 5H, but it seems like she is. I just want them to be good friends still! Anyway, this is a lovely track, one that I think will become a fan favorite. She sounds beautiful in it. Just a lovely song all around.
So proud of her!

Glad to hear she's performing on New Years' Rockin' Eve. I hope she gets more than one performance slot leading up to the ball dropping. Being a homebody myself, I'll be sure to tune in with my bottle of sparking white grape juice and some schnacks.

I wonder if they'll have Nick performing "Jealous" or "Chains" instead of one of his more recent singles?
