Elena really said f**k you streaming cunts, I'mma give you bridges and full songs! Love her and this album. What do you mean? Are there longer versions of songs somewhere? No but I feel like most of the songs have bridges and are at least 3 min LOL.

Debuts at #125 in the US. They should have tacked "Miracle" in DSPs, but I don't know how much it was going to help there though~

The trend of 2 minute songs is terrible and we should start working on our attention spans instead of making everyone listen to those short versions of songs. I personally hate them, especially when there’s a good song which deserves 4-5 minutes.

A phenomenal album. This is the most polished pop album I've heard since Future Nostalgia. You can tell the producers really went all in. I like Brightest Blue slightly more as a body of work because of it's rawness, but this is an equally enjoyable listen.

When you think of all the women currently making the best pop/dance music, not a single one of them are selling. Jessie, Tove, Carly, Ava, Roisin, Kylie, Charli, Zara, Robyn, etc. So she's in good company! Female driven, pure pop music just isn't moving numbers. Unless your name is Taylor Swift or you use some glaringly unoriginal sample, you're pretty much f**ked. Her diminished profile and lack of a hit here certainly didn't help.
Even FN, which is probably considered the premiere female pop/dance era of the 2020's, hit quite a few roadblocks along the way. But her label pulled every trick in the book to keep that era going. Most labels aren't going to put that amount of effort/money into a genre that isn't streaming.
At the end of the day, she released a killer pop album. Fingers crossed it gets fully appreciated by the audience who loves that kind of music, because she served.

“Falling For You” is being used in the promotion for the new rom-com What’s Love Got to Do With It?:

Pure pop perfection.

What do you mean? They have I Need Your Love, Outside, and Miracle. That’s the trilogy

The caption reads "maybe there's more to the trilogy after all", which implies that there might be something more coming from them. As in, it won't be just a trilogy soon.
