The air is clean, your skin is clear
We've had enough fun hanging around here
It's a different kind of conversation in your blue room
A lion? A rabbit? A fox?

No, just good ol' Bono! 🤭

Didn't Bono say recently (Stories of Surrender promo tour) that he gets stuck on accents sometimes, or did I imagine that? I think it was in relation to the impersonations he does on stage and the audio book.

Particularly proud to see #Isak in red at #LFC, as a Swede and Solna resident. 🌟

An excerpt from the announcement video (Swedish subtitles) from Magnus Gisslén. He also says he will share more details about his decision soon.

The one I'll come back to: definitely "Everybody's Trying to Figure Me Out" but as for the first listens here: "Lucky stars", "Try to feel my pain" and "Take me back" are all contenders.

Overall, a bit of a mixed bag. The samples were used well. A bit repetitive on the narrative but another time it might feel more cohesive. Definitely prefer my HAIM when they have a bit of swag and groove to it. Solid album for a first introduction, I guess.

One more thing: The build up is kind of Zooropa too, with the ending part of "Now it's time" sounding influenced by the second part of "Zooropa" once it really kicks into gear. Awesome!

15. "Now it's time" - Oh, I definitely know this one ("Numb" from U2's "Zooropa)! I like the added oomph to the backing track. The Irish lads returning the favor after "My Song 5" featured on their "Lights of Home" in 2017. Sounds like a a cousin to "Big Time Nothing" by St Vincent from last year.

14. "Blood on the street" - Back to the rock sound, a kind of blues rock as it happens. I guess that goes well with the narrative of the song. But it is becoming a bit too much of the same. Next...

13. "Cry" - HAIM goes "Viva La Vida" with those staccato synth strings or whatever that is in the background. It's not just me, right? More country influence with that pedal steel guitar. Kind of catchy but a bit too repetitive for my liking.

12. "Spinning" - Yep, more of the groove. Disco? Getting a bit of a Natalie Prass vibe from this one. This is Alana on vocals, right? (No expert on HAIM but read something like that). Pretty straightforward pop but I like it. Might work as a remix, too?

11. "Try to feel my pain" - Ooh, another groovy sound. I think it's clear now that I like my HAIM groovy, haha. I like the juxtaposition of the sad plea for empathy with the catchy music. Sweet.

10. "Everybody's Trying to Figure Me Out" - I loved this one since the first time I heard it. I feel like the story is relatable, the groove is there, the music is catchy and focused. Easy candidate for favorite. The second part of the song is really cool too. (Ebow? <3)
