people dont like those songs? i honestly never understood entirely how people aren't fond of this album in terms of the songs on the tracklist (aside from the title track ofc). its really just empowerment katy, something shes been doing since teenage dream. imo the album's issue is mostly a lack of cohesion (not including small talk was a choice + nro as an opener is okay) and it feels like it appeals to the millenials and not katy's fanbase yk?

I see where you're coming from! I'm not that big of a Katy fan (stones are coming but I don't like anything from Teenage Dream, I only really enjoy Prism, Witness and Smile + I still haven't listened to One of the Boys or 143), but tbh Resilient and What Makes a Woman, while I love their message, I think they sound boring, even lazy. I replaced them with Never Worn White and Electric and a different order. Here's what I use:

1. Never Really Over
2. Cry About It Later
3. Teary Eyes
4. Daisies
5. High on Your Supply
6. Not the End of the World
7. Smile
8. Champagne Problems
9. Tucked
10. Harleys in Hawaii
11. Never Worn White
12. Only Love
13. Small Talk Deluxe version bonus track
14. Electric Deluxe version bonus track
15. When I'm Gone with Alesso; deluxe version bonus track
16. Smile (feat. Diddy) Deluxe version bonus track

Diddy jumpscare. Good tracklist tho! When Im Gone is underrated. 143 isnt worth the listen, its pretty basic dance pop that is mostly underwhelming by Katy standards. I can enjoy it tho but its too short. One Of The Boys is also good imo but showcase weak vocal ability in some tracks

I probably live in a cave but I don't know who Diddy is, I just enjoyed his verse on the track but if we shall ignore him we will  I'll check both albums then!

OOTB is her best album and i WILL die on this hill. i wish it was 15 (standard edition) tracks instead of 12 smh

[ChildOfTheMoon]

so ive recently come to find out that many of the Kesha leaks we have were from 2002-ish instead of 2006-2007 like most Animals thought previously lol. im still working on my lists atm and theres definitely some tracks i forgot to move but this is what i have it at now.

edit - im moving Secret Weapon and Amnesia to 2005.

Whatever rock ur under: PLEASE LET ME JOIN IT.
 

Spoiler

So diddy is basically a rapper/singer and he's got over 3000 accusations of sexual misconduct from sexual afterparties he hosted, the youngest accuser being 9 years old at the time of the assault. diddy is basically the worst human being ever just to sum it up)

Tension II by Kylie Minogue (2024)

Tracklist

Spoiler

1. Kiss Bang Bang
2. Lights, Camera, Action 
3. Taboo
4. Someone For Me
5. Good As Gone
6. The Edge Of Saturday Night (feat. The Blessed Madonna)
7. Night Owl
8. Hello
9. Diamonds
10. Dance To The Music
11. Shoulda Left Ya
12. Dance Alone (feat. Sia) (Bonus Track)
13. More Than A Feeling (Bonus Track)

I forgot to make a post when I listened but Tension did not need a second volume, especially when a quarter of this album is filler. Some bops in here for sure but it's one of her weakest and least exciting albums. I do hope she releases Night Owl so I can cut some of these songs out. Also Midnight Ride is shite, does not fit the album whatsoever. Why couldn't have she saved more songs like Stars In Our Eyes (especially for the slight astrology aesthetic going on) for the final cut. And shoulda left ya was way too short too. 

Edit: Night Owl leaked!!!

BADLANDS by Halsey (2015)

Tracklist

Spoiler

1. Castle
2. Hold Me Down
3. New Americana
4. Empty Gold
5. Drive
6. Roman Holiday
7. Ghost
8. Hurricane (Optional Addition)
9. Colors + Colors II
10. Coming Down
11. Is There Somewhere
12. Haunting
13. Gasoline
14. Young God
15. I Walk The Line

@Ice Princedid a very similar tracklist that share the same placements as Empty Gold and Is There Somewhere share. Hurricane is such a great song and deserves to be on the front of the album but I couldn't place it anywhere between drive and roman holiday since those songs are made for each other. I put it after Ghost as thats the track run on Room 93 and works pretty well! even if it interferes with the cohesion from Ghost to Colors. But anyway

Bubblebath by Poppy (2015)

Spoiler

1. Renegade
2. Lowlife
3. Bubblebath
4. Money
5. Sweetheart
6. Altar
7. Little Pyscho
8. Cheerleader
9. Fountain Of Youth 
10. Explode (feat. Lovelife)
11. Golden Gate
12. Spare Key
13. American Kids

Imo Bubblebath would have been a stronger debut album than Poppy.Computer. I'm not saying Poppy.Computer is bad, but its a little underwhelming in some places especially being the first album. Moshi Moshi and Software Upgrade are total bops, espically Software Upgrade. 

Bubblebath would have been a better debut since there was a set theme and concept behind the album, Poppy.Computer just feels like a void of her YouTube personality with some great songs here and there but some lacking delivery in some songs. I may change this tracklist but so far I think it's satisfactory. I wanted to add New York, All My Fault, and Guns & Gold also but couldn't find placements for them. Though I want to keep Bubblebath at no more than 14 songs unless I make a deluxe idea. Must say Renegade makes a great into to the album, defo should have been released!
