HI NIKKI

Is this a new filming setup? The lighting looks so good and cozy!

Nikki S

Same!! My favorites but they make me cry because I feel that way to my core. Sending love❤️‍🩹

Tessa Noble

This is probably my favourite Halsey so far but I feel like I have to listen a couple times. A lot of my favs are your favs. Thank you for making me appreciate Dog Years more :)

Was waiting for this one. As someone who deals with chronic illness and constantly feels like a burden to anyone around me this album absolutely recked me….. Especially life of a spider and letter to god 1998 .

Nikki S

I just saw you posted the reaction on youtube and I came straight here to join lol 🥰

Danika Rae

I really enjoyed the rollout for this album. While some criticized it as mimicry, I found it really fresh and innovative. I think it is interesting to keep in mind who her muse was for each song: Only Living Girl in LA - Marilyn Monroe Ego - Dolores O'Riordan (of the Cranberries) Dog Years - P.J. Harvey Letter to God (1974) - Cher Panic Attack- Stevie Nicks The End - Joni Mitchell I Believe in Magic - Linda Rondstadt Letter to God (1983) - Bruce Springsteen Hometown - Dolly Parton I Never Loved You - Kate Bush Darwinism - David Bowie Lonely is the Muse - Amy Lee (of Evanescence) Arsonist - Fiona Apple Life of the Spider - Tori Amos Hurt Feelings - Halsey Lucky - Britney Spears Letter to God (1998) - Aaliyah The Great Impersonator - Bjork For me, Halsey's P.J. Harvey homage jumped out immediately. It sounds a lot like P.J.'s song "This Mess We're In." Likewise, "Letter to God (1983)" reminds me a lot of "I'm on Fire." I enjoyed "The Great Impersonator," but I can't say it evokes the spirit of Bjork for me. There were several women who put out amazing, challenging albums this year, and I'm so pleased that we all get to enjoy one more.

this album broke me ngl… I’ve always loved halsey and followed her since debut. even before she officially released music we were tumblr mutuals 💀 she posted a lot of poems as ashley and used them in her future releases and I love how she did it again for some songs on this album. despite how open she is in her songs I always think we don’t know much about her private life. then she releases new music and its almost shocking how honest and vulnerable she gets… I also feel like everyone has that one special song on this project that just hits the hardest. for me its “arsonist”.. the song makes me so devastatingly sad for her. being chronically ill and having to live through it with her ex aka a “narcissistic liar” as she calls him… the song is creepy and sad and is one of my favorites but I cant listen to it everyday like “ego” “lonely is the muse” or “panic attack” overall her most honest and niche project. and thats a crazy statement considering “If i cant have love i want power” was already all of that and more. she really wrote this album for herself and I feel like music like this doesn’t come around often these days. especially from “pop stars” like halsey herself. also… im never killing a spider again.

Kristina

I love all your album reactions!!! I'm still hoping one day you will do McFly's latest album Power to Play... Long ago before I got kicked out of the requests tier... I gave you several McFly requests that you loved. 🥰

Lucille

Thank you for always actually listening 💝

Chloe

Also just fyi I'm not there yet but 'the great impersonator' is the final track, 'alice of the upper class' is part of a bonus series that was added recently, I think their gearing up to release a full deluxe version soon, yeah so that's why it might feel outta place, you should deffo react to the other bonus tracks when they're released on streaming, they're so good!!

Chloe

I never loved you in vain because it gave her their son 😭

Vivian Betancourt
