'This Time Around' is track #14 on 'Queen Of The Clouds' and part of 'The Pain'. I like this song - especially the chorus, but it's not like one of her best overall. It grew on me though! Interpretation: She's trying to create a love that just isn't even there. She's doing that for multiple times but just doesn't feel it and thought it'd be different 'this time around'.

'Paradise' was first released on Tove's 2014 'Truth Serum' EP as track #2. I love this track and i hoped it could go further. The chorus is fantastic! Shame some might be annoyed by the vocals of this one. Interpretation: Tove Lo is in a true relationship which includes real love and no lies so she thinks she is in 'what they call paradise'.

'Imaginary Friend' is song #9 on Tove Lo's second ful-length studio album 'Lady Wood' and is part of 'Fire Fade'. Y'all did this SO dirty. It's right beneath the line of my favorite songs ever. It's so catchy - that chorus is amazing and addicting. The extension for the second chorus is enormous - just everything about this masterpiece is amazing. Seriously what makes this bottom 10 worthy Leaf , maine and willapted33 ? Lol - I love this so f**king much - I can't. Interpretation: When Tove feels down and like nobody in the world is there for her or against her she turns to her 'imaginary friend' - meaning she's trying to get through all of it alone. Maybe she's even going insane a bit. (I can relate so much)

BONUS: Jealousy
'Jealousy' is another unreleased song by Tove Lo. It would have made my Top 20 probably. What are your thoughts on it?

Lady Wood is miles ahead better tho. :sip2: I found it pretty solid on the first (and maybe second) listen but soon found myself skipping all but 2-3 songs. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I probably did put Imaginary Friend a few spots too low though. The only songs on here I'm not very fond of are my 36-40.

'Love Ballad' is Tove Lo's debut single and was featured on both 'Truth Serum' and the Blueprint version of 'Queen Of The Clouds'. I like this and I didn't think people would be so diversive on it. Interpretation: Tove Lo is trying everything to keep the relationship intact and that her lover doesn't need to 'roll the dice' and just stick with her because she's 'the one to hold'.

'Flashes' is track #11 on 'Lady Wood' and part of 'Fire Fade'. Time to rant. WTF?? This song is genius - gorgeous and just everything. The production is on point, the lyrics are great and it's so catchy. At 3.39 she's singing 'What about you' in a very punchy way and it's probably one of my favorite Tove moments ever - i mean, wow that just blows me away everytime. I'm so fucking glad that the Pop elite - me, born and @mirza all had this Top 10 Chelsea Press 2 & DistrictTwelve , I thought you liked me - what iso wrong with this song :'( . And willapted33 , why are most of your bottom 10 'Lady Wood' songs? Especially this masterpiece - i can't :sip2: Interpretation: She is doing a lot for a person, either a lover or a friend, and when it all seems to become to much for her especially with other people going against her and evrything just falling apart that person doesn't help her. (I can fucking relate to this so much omg Tove Lo you're my queen aaaaaaaah)

'My Gun' was track #2 on 'Queen Of The Clouds' so the first proper song on the album. It's also part of 'The Sex'. This is nice enough. But way too high to be honest. It drags on later although she does sound amazing on this. Interpretation: Tove is not easy at all and although the guy enjoys her company he might think about leaving her and she says she wants him do that 'gently'.

Would you like to know why most of my bottom 10 are Lady Wood songs?
Because that is an ABOMINATION of an album. Sitting through all these songs from it was a chore. The drop off from Queen of the Clouds to Lady Wood is MASSIVE.

TBH I'm probably the only person who likes QOTC & Lady Wood pretty equally
Flashes probably being the emotional highpoint for LW

Nooooo. I hate y'all, "Flashes" saved the music industry and also my boring November 2016 nights, it deserved top 10. I honestly think it's just perfect, can't see why anyone would hate it.

The remix to 'Desire' which features Tove Lo was released in 2016 as the 7th single from Years & Years' 'Commmunion'. Don't care too much for this - Tove did bring something new to the table though. Interpretation: The person is unsure whether they're feeling true love or only desire and are afraid of love because that would only hurt them.
