A sultry sync listen: 'Melanie C', Monday 8pm

[Iguana]

Who I am is amazing

God you're so up yourself these days

 

[Jark]

I wasn't crazy about Who I Am at first. and I still prefer the Joe Goddard remix. but it's quite good innit?

understated banger, solid opener to the record.

 

[Dark Carnival]

I love the DROP MY ARMOUR ad-libs!!

 

[Tisch]

ONTO TRACK 2!

 

[Dark Carnival]

Who I am IS my favourite from this album

 

[Tisch]

Who I am IS my favourite from this album

Mine too. Such a good opener.

 

[Jark]

make-up running down my cheeks
lying here in disbelief
blinded me so easily
messin' with my energy...

me after any hookup leaves in the morning.

 

[Penelope]

A-/10 Who I Am

 

[Dark Carnival]

GROOVY

 

[Iguana]

I LOVE the minimalist chorus of Blame It On Me

 

[Dark Carnival]

QUEEN OF CLUBS!

 

[Jark]

make-up running down my cheeks
lying here in disbelief
blinded me so easily
messin' with my energy...

me after any hookup leaves in the morning.

now I know you're POISON.

...me 30 minutes later when I've decided to NEVER SEE THEM AGAIN for NO REASON AT ALL.

 

[Tisch]

Blame It On Me has such a sultry beat. Really strengthens the chorus.

 

[Dark Carnival]

make-up running down my cheeks

me after any hookup leaves in the morning.

Except it's JIZZ

 

[Tisch]

10 Who I Am
09 Blame It On Me

 

[SDF]

Turns out you were the poison
Said I was hearing voices
Filled with paranoia

 

[Jark]

OK but seriously girls. I don't feel we have given this song the appreciation it really deserves.

it's all about that ICY, PITCHED N' TWEAKED VOCAL SAMPLE chaotically interrupting the chorus every 5 seconds. A TOTAL MOOD!

08 Who I Am
10 Blame It On Me

 

[Dark Carnival]

Blame it, blame it, blame it!

QUEEN OF AD-LIBS

 

[SDF]

This is such an accomplished track

 

[Penelope]

I'm liking the fresh out of 2016 production on this. Is this the music Menly actually likes?

 

[SDF]

And actually I know this will likely get a few but I could hear someone like Dua singing it

 

[Dark Carnival]

OMG OMG THAT ELECTRO BASS LINE

 

[SDF]

10s across the board so far my loves

 

[Jark]

I'm liking the fresh out of 2016 production on this. Is this the music Menly actually likes?

I don't think the production is dated at all. Any younger act could release it today (Blame It) and have a hit with that.

 

[Iguana]

10a across the board so far my loves

Agreed!

 

[Penelope]

88 Who I Am
75 Blame It On Me

 

[SDF]

God you're so up yourself these days

these days?

 

[Jark]

I was quite underwhelmed by Good Enough at first but it really is THE LIVING TITTIES! Slap me in the face!

 

[Penelope]

Oh THIS is fantastic. THAT BASS!

 

[SDF]

88 Who I Am
75 Blame It On Me

are we doing @joanne ranking

also morning Penny x

 

[Dark Carnival]

THIS is the actual club banger of the album! I want to get my MDMA high during the seconds that precede the pre-chorus

 

[Beverley]

08 WIA
11 BIOM

 

[Tisch]

I'm liking the fresh out of 2016 production on this. Is this the music Menly actually likes?

Sounds thoroughly modern to me! But I'm not au fair with what's cool or not these days. Not sure if Menly is either...

 

[Dark Carnival]

QUEEN OF KET!

 

[Tisch]

Good Enough would REALLY suit a poppers o clock remix. Is there one?

 

[Jark]

Good Enough reminds me quite a bit of STUPID GAME from The Sea (deep cut for the real ones, another banger). Same ICE COLD MOOD.

08 Who I Am
10 Blame It On Me
09 Good Enough

 

[SDF]

I think it might include my favourite lyric of the album:

You keep trying to fix something that isn’t even broken

HUN I’ve felt like this so many times too

 

[Dark Carnival]

10 Who I Am
08 Blame It On Me
10 Good Enough

 

[Penelope]

88 Who I Am
75 Blame It On Me
91 Good Enough

 

[Dark Carnival]

Oh I'm not really a big fan of this one I think
