Revealed by a reliable source that the opening song from Radical Optimism will be the focus track during the album release this Friday.

A teaser of the song was revealed in Tokio, Japan. Also, contrary to what's mentioned before, this isn't the focus track and it's "These Walls" instead.

This is very summery, I especially love the pre-chorus. Not sure how I feel about the spoken/rapped part of the bridge, but it's gotten less jarring after repeated listens.

This is the highlight of the album for me, I feel like this is the perfect bridge between Future Nostalgia and this new album, which is probably the intended vision since the song is literally called End of an Era lol.
But the chorus is very summery and those bouncy synths just gives me feelings of looking at a late summer sunset, it hits me more viscerally than the rest of the album which just kinda sits there.

This is one of the standouts from the album for me. The production is so light & fun and her vocals are so good.

The 'I've lost all my senses, is this my happy ending' part is pop perfection, this has already grown on me immensely

This is cool, sounds very light French Riviera euro summer bop to me. If that makes sense!

This is the song I keep coming back to the most from the album, I really believe this should be the next single.
