Sounds good. She was really kind of the whole reason to listen to Paramore anyways so it's not a surprise she went solo. I still load up Crush on YouTube once in a while.
Just a side project. Taylor even produced and co-wrote the song with her.

Honestly surprised it took this long.
She has so much star power on her own and did so many huge features on top songs that it was inevitable IMO.

Had it on repeat for the last hour and a half, damn near cried the first few listens. As one of the biggest Paramore fans around, I'm so proud of Hayley for releasing such a fucking banger.
This is very good, interesting, intriguing, super curious as to what her album will sound like and as such is >>>>>>>>> that rehashed Gaga sound from yesterday
Super interested in this. I loved Hard Times. I haven't listened to any of the new album yet - does it compare?
Edit: I meant After Laughter - duh, sorry.

yes. some great tunes on After Laughter. My fave is Rose-Colored Boy.
Third, iirc. She says shit on Teenagers from the Jennifer's Body soundtrack and bastard on Grudges off of After Laughter.
Didn't love it, but I loved Paramore's last 2 albums so i'll give it a shot in May
Do artists typically release singles this far ahead?

This is honestly kinda boring and stale... feels empty
winner of 2020 so far still goes to Rina Sawayama

That was sooooo bad. I'm enjoying this though. Need a few more listens.

Ummm this song is pretty weak. This is not the Haley I was anticipating. Hopefully she tries again with something else that's more of a bop

I've always thought that conversation with the rest of the band must be so awkward.
"I've got some great ideas for new music!"
"Sounds good!" Says the rest of the band.
"Not so fast" says Hayley.

I really like the music, but I'm not super confident her voice fits it. I feel like it needs a bit more of a deeper, more powerful voice. That, or a more distinctly weird voice like Karin Dreijer. This feels like she's aping a certain style that's pretty far removed from her pop punk range, and isn't quite getting there. Good song though!
Sounds pretty great. Looking forward to the full album.
So not used to hearing such language come from her lol. Threw me for a loop for a second.
Thought about making a thread for this earlier, but got too distracted. But it's good stuff. I like it.
Taylor York and touring Paramore member Joey Howard co-wrote/produced this and other songs for the album.
She's talking about Chad during that second verse...so not entirely surprising that she goes there.
Doesn't that almost make it worse?
"How about our next collaboration we just name after me?"
Wasn't she already basically a solo artist with Paramore? Like she fired the rest of the group and brought in studio musicians?
Evanescence (Amy Lee) did the same thing IIRC.

Not really feelin' it. Could be anybody singing this song. Doesn't showcase the Hayley awesomeness.
Paramore isn't my thing but this is not bad. I wouldn't say I'm totally sold but I'll check out the other singles before the album releases.
