OMG WHAT AN ALBUM IT MAKES ME EMOTIONAL! It's just like it was the first album I properly loved and it's just like it's so good!!! It's got such an identity it's got like themes and ughghghghgh I can't describe like I'm so glad I've got the physical copy now because I kept forgetting about it but genuinely like it just takes me back and it's still so gooooood!
Ranking the TracklistI'm not gonna include !!! in the ranking because it's not a song sorry not sorry.
This is actually a very sentimental and nostalgic album for me. Probably one of if not the first album I really loved. I remember that the first album I actually bought (Google Play Music) was Pray For The Wicked by Panic! At The Disco because we were going on holiday and I wanted something to listen to but I don't think I had listened to all the songs on that album before I bought it so I think this was the first one I was like yeah this is so cool I love this album. It will have come out around the same time like a bit after I went on that holiday though because I got noise cancelling headphones for my birthday that year and I LOOOOOOVED listening to this on those headphones it was actually life-changing I would just listen to this album over and over and over I never got bored. And I loved watching the little like gifs that played on Spotify like all her drawings and stuff I found it so cool. Looking back now it's kind of a similar thing to The Bends lyric booklet with the sketches. I wish Billie put them in the CD sleeve like... It would be so cool like I get that she's got a thing of just printing the lyrics on the inside of the cardboard which is cool because like less printing and stuff but I really appreciate like a fuller visual identity for an album when you buy the physical copy but honestly the music speaks for itself it's not needed just a personal thing I would've loved a lyric booklet.
Memory
I remember walking home from school on my own one day and just trying to like remember all the lyrics to my strange addiction and 8 because I was learing 8 on ukelele (ALSO 8 IS MY LUCKY NUMBER) and I was just testing if I knew all the lyrics. Oh and something from the EP as well like I think it was idontwannabemeanymore or like other songs from before this album. And yeah just really loving this song and it was my ukelele inspo I thought I was so cool for being able to play this hahaha! It was cool for me because this was the best music in my whole world at the time!! I have so many memories attached to this album maybe I'll slowly add them onto this page because it's true like this was a big album for me and still is like it is part of me defo. Like I love music and this was the album that first made me realise how much I could love music.
And it was also just the way it told a story across the album it was the first time I chose to listen to an album and understand and appreciate it on that level it was just so cool!
