omg shipping cost was like 60% of the purchase, no thanks. I'll just enjoy this album from afar.

Thinking back to this, I think Esmée came up in the wrong era. She was battling against the dance-pop sound with her throwback pop / R&B sound. I think if she had released in the era of streaming, she could've carved out a niche for herself.

I was hoping for a more interesting vinyl print or at least a different cover. I'll probably pass on this one. I saw! I managed to pre-order the white one from Amazon right when it went live. I heard pre-orders sold out within minutes.

Hmm...tbh, I'd just watch a show on YouTube at that point.

Future Nostalgia will always be robbed imo. The first major album of the pandemic era. But I'm glad she's finally able to promote it and maybe she'll put out a 58th edition of the album with 2 more unreleased songs.

I just found out about RSD Black Friday today! I also saw that Lana's releasing a special version of Chemtrails on blue vinyl.

I can totally see this being from the WOMC era! Kinda reminds me of "Love Bomb".

Anyone know how tf someone can get the blue vinyl of Lorde's Solar Power in the US without import?? Second question: Was the yellow variant ultimately changed to the orange? I remember when it was first announced, they had yellow, orange, blue, brown, and clear.

Honestly, I think it's the best decision, given her condition. The girls were watching out for her and wanted what was best for her. It's not like a "girls being bullies and bullying her out of the group." It's genuine concern because they want to see her get better and not worse, because imagine if Jesy had done something irreversible. That being said, in a couple eras down the road, imagine if there was a Little Mix featuring Jesy Nelson track? I would be here for it!

Honestly, it's prob not her decision. I bet you it's 100% the label.

omg we already had 2 RSDs today, now they're adding another one?! Don't get me wrong, I love that artists are leaning in vinyl records, but I feel like literally everything in the back catalogue is coming out now on a new vinyl pressing.

I thought this might be a fun thread to start and as I listen to music, notate 2 or more songs that sound unintentionally similar (not sampled or interpolated). The one that kick started this idea today was the 2 songs below. Once you hear it.....................

I was just about to post these! I pre-ordered all 3 of them. I SAW THIS TOO!!! Do you know how to get this one? I just saw that it's coming, but didn't see a method of pre-ordering or picking it up on day of release.

I saw the headline this morning Honestly, the man's had such a long and successful career, I hope he enjoys retirement!

Ava Max - Born to the Night (Demo) snippet Sounds like an edit...but just in case anyone was interested.

Plus a $25 shipping.

2 pieces of good news today! What an exciting day for celebrity news!

I just saw this! What a win today!

A few records came in this week! Billie Eilish - Happier Than Ever (Pale Yellow) Walmart exclusive Billie Eilish - Happier Than Ever (Gold) Webstore TikTok exclusive Julia Michaels - Not In Chronological Order The ones I'm expecting later this month... Fleetwood Mac - Rumours (Gold) Target exclusive Olivia Rodrigo - Sour (Dark Blue) Target exclusive Lorde - Solar Power (Orange Marbled) Target exclusive Lady Gaga - The Fame (Light Blue) EU exclusive Particularly looking forward to the Gaga one to complete my Gaga coloured collection!

I think it's pretty likely considering Into the Rush got an UO release, then also became available at the Disney emporium, the same way Demi's, Selena's, and Miley's did!

Just ordered! ?

I've been reading articles similar to this actually! What started off as a niche market has now become mainstream and introduced the addition of scalpers. Honestly, I kinda liked it better when these special releases were exactly that. Special releases for just the fans. I don't know how I feel about major labels jumping the queue and paying top dollar to have their products completed before indie artists...but it makes sense that they would try to get on the trend cause otherwise they're missing out on potential revenue. All that being said, I'll still support the artists I like, but no way in hell am I ever going to join the scalping game because that's just beyond rude to fans. You need money? Touch some grass and get a job. As for the PVC shortage, that's been a huge issue in multiple markets. My friend's been trying to customize her own keyboard and I've been helping her look for parts and it's pretty crazy how her struggles mirror exactly the struggles of vinyl fans. Limited quantity, scalpers, etc.

Did anyone attend RSD, Drop 2? I picked up Amy Winehouse's Remixes and t.A.T.u.'s 200 km/h In The Wrong Lane!

@Skinny Legend Kesha's webstore pressings are back in stock!
