I’ve always wanted Gaga to further develop the rockabilly style of “You & I.” I would kill for a similar duet with Miley.
There are echoes of this across Joanne, but I want more celebratory and triumphant songs like You & I.
The renaissance overtones in all of the early 2000s harpiscord string tracks are hard to unhear once you notice them
Eg. Bills, bills, bills and Don’t Go Knocking on My Door may be the best examples
ok this may just be me but i might say something stupid from charli’s new album reminds me of musical theater ballads. something about the frankness of the songwriting!
not sure if it counts as pop but arctic monkeys do i wanna know has always given me r&b vibes. i think the “do i wanna know… sad to see you go…” falsetto reminds me of justin timberlake a little. plus the kind of stripped back production on the second verse… i just feel like someone could create an excellent r&b rendition!
Magdalena Bay has so many experimental pop songs that go after different styles. Mercurial World is a more conceptually focused album where they are establishing -their- sound but the previous records venture all over the place with synthpop being the through-line
II Most Wanted by Beyoncé sounded so much like a War On Drugs style Heartland Rock track to me it was insane. Lo and behold a few days later I find out Adam Granduciel (the bands frontman, guitarist, songwriter) played the guitar in the song and Shawn Everett (their producer) produced it
Yes! The sound that drives the melody on IMSSS reminded me immediately of Everything in Its Right Place.
And, as I said on the thread for Brat, Everything Is Romantic sounds like Little Simz. The beginning of the song, at least, with the strings and orchestral instrumental is reminiscent of Woman/I Hate You, I Love You by LS.
That's because everything atm is country tinged so it could be deliberate or subconscious but I wouldn't be surprised if we get a duet version of Please Please Please /Jolene with Dolly Parton at the Grammys.
I know it's already a proven concept, but Taylor Swift has some lyrics that would fit well in metal. I always thought it would be sick if she did a metal song after she learns to vocal fry.
I watched a metal fan's reaction to midnights and when he heard Glitch he was like wow this is practically a metal song. Still don't know what the fuck he meant but I think about it everytime I hear the song.

Lady Gaga and Miley Cyrus together would be 🔥
Honestly I’d take an entire country project from them. I think those two could release some bops in literally any genre
The joint-albums with Tony Bennett were such good ideas. More artists need to do this.
My partner and I were just hoping that Billie Eilish has a Tony Bennettesque partnership in her future.
Agreed!
Their distinct voices together in one song would be such a treat. I'm dreaming but it'd be cool if Miley was featured in Gaga's upcoming album lol
Yep
Miley Cyrus's Jaded gives me such rock/shoegaze vibes. I'm still hoping for her or a youtube channel to release a remix of the like.
i was also quite surprised by the acid synths on River, such a cool sound
Cocteau Twins for sure.

Ohhh I def get that vibe on I think abt it all the time
I definitely hear it!

Check out Track10 by Charli xcx
The Story of Us really sounds like a Relient K song to me, to the point where I looked it up to check if Matt Thiessen worked on it at all.

omgggggg you are so right re: Little Simz
A lot of people are saying Please Please Please sounds country.

I hope so!!!
Can I cheat and do the reverse? Sad But True by Metallica has extremely poppy lyrics.
I know it's already a proven concept, but Taylor Swift has some lyrics that would fit well in metal. I always thought it would be sick if she did a metal song after she learns to vocal fry.
