Watched the track by track with Zach Sang and it was cool hearing insights into her creative process. It was interesting that everything seemed meaningful and thought out except the inclusion of the saturn returns interlude.

Completely obsessed with her all over again, glad this album really did serve The visuals and performances so far are all top notch, too, the numbers speak for themselves, happy for her to keep winning while showing her vulnerability Also this has so many potential singles, in a perfect world they would go 5 singles deep 1. yes, and? 2. we can't be friends (wait for your love) 3. supernatural (Summer) 4. the boy is mine (Fall) 5. imperfect for you (Winter)

The way I geek out when Yes, And? comes on after The Boy Is Mine. This album really is perfect. I definitely foresee at least a Grammy nom for the album in the pop category.

You should try and just look up an audio for the end of supernatural, because I saw that the backing vocals (some of the best on the album!) are not on the vinyls.

After all the drama with getting my vinyl copy (first, it was stolen; then, I had to wait a week (i.e., today) for the replacement to be delivered after fighting to get the replacement to be delivered to a locker and fraudulently told the update was made in the system; then, I watched on the Amazon driver continued to delay my delivery and then go off the radar completely only to have it delivered after the time window), I finally got this shit! Also, to make matters sweeter, the original copy I ordered was paid for with a gift card x Amazon points, so I didn't spend a dime of my money on it AND I got a complete refund today after having to call Customer Service and deal with them for 2 hours trying to figure out what the delivery guy was doing. So, I actually MADE money to get the vinyl copy of this. On top of that, my coworker gifted me the digital version after my original vinyl got stolen. What a delight! Can't wait to finally hear this on vinyl tonight!

Oh man. This is a rare example of a case where the vinyl actually sounds worse than the digital copy. It sounds so...hollow on vinyl. She definitely added more stuff, especially the vocals at the end of Supernatural, and it's blatant, LOL. Maybe it wasn't actually finished when it got pressed for vinyl and she realized that and was like...lemme fix all this shit quickly. She still goes off at the end of True Story, though. Like, dayum girl, where did that fire come from? That firecrotch you lie with?

The album is my favourite album of hers now. It's just such as vibe, I love it.
Singles in an ideal world:
1. "yes, and?" 2. "we can't be friends (wait for your love)" 3. "the boy is mine (feat. SZA)" 4. "bye" 5. "don't wanna break up again (feat. The Weeknd)"
She'd end up with 4 #1s/5 top 10s ("bye" the only song failing to get to #1). *_*

So judging from the initial week Hot 100 placement, it seems that the singles might be: 1. "yes, and?" 2. "we can't be friends (wait for your love)" 3. "the boy is mine" 4. "supernatural" featuring ? 5. "bye" (Yes, I know “eternal sunshine” placed higher than “bye” and believe me I love it too. But I don’t think it works as a single for CHR radio.)

Most Listened To:
- supernatural - don't wanna break up again - imperfect for you - we can't be friends (wait for your love) - bye
Least Listened To:
- yes, and? (original) - saturn returns - ordinary things - intro (end of the world) - eternal sunshine

Yeah, I can maybe hear The Weeknd on Don't Wanna Break Up Again, but The Boy Is Mine is not within SZA's sound at all.

This album just gets better with more listens. I put it on with my good headphones while doing dishes and I got so excited for each track. I stopped to do dances to The Boy is Mine and yes, and?

^ I mean, it's AI, SZA wouldn't sing in Ariana's style. I think it sounded nice until the pre-chorus.
