Great Expectation

It's a tough balancing act.

Speaking of hits, I love how she performed Great Expectation at the VMAs with a huge band backing her.

Right? That must have felt amazing.

A big band can elevate a performance, but it also complicates logistics.

talking about exactly and it looks every time you look at Enneagrams through other people it portrays a different angle so it's all new stuff which would be good yeah and then the last one I loved was the Taylor Swift Life of a Showgirl album because it was just a good turning point.

How do you feel about the encore songs? We haven't discussed that.

That was

actually

my end for the week.

I cannot believe the slander it's getting I feel like these songs are really really strong and that nothing is being watered down because she's in this relationship I think it's very similar to how Maisie Peters is in a stable healthy relationship now and is able to reflect back on older things but also still make songs about being in love as well like Patient Zero is getting me it's one of my favorite bridges I think Babylon is profound about like the necessity of being present to your life like I don't know where are you sitting I mean I have the luxury of having I got to listen to them many many times in a row like I don't know just when it first comes out people might be in a rush or whatever but I was on fall break so yeah I did I've listened to it

three times I think and I the first time I played them I was like oh I can see why these were not on the initial album like these were in the vault or like not but Patient Zero has grown on me.

The music video helped a lot

He's wrapping up.

Oh, but the Come As You Are reference, of course, that's one of Nirvana's songs.

But I also kind of hated that he used the word aesthetic at one point about Nirvana's aesthetic, because that's like the Gen Z buzzword.

And I've seen so many videos now of teenagers who think Nirvana's a clothing company, because they see the Nirvana t-shirts.

It's the closest you will get to seeing George Michael live at this point.

So I'm kind of excited for that.

To be in an audience with people excited to be there and sing along to those songs would be kind of fun.

That wasn't the only tribute of the night.

It's like she's got this magnetic presence that resonates with people.

And Great Expectation has been doing well too.

Three weeks at number one on the UK charts, that's quite a feat.

For sure, but I'm curious about how sustainable that success is.
