What I love most about the title track is its unabashed cheese. It sounds like the closing number of a musical, and while it could have been tacky in someone else's hands, Carly infuses it with so much joy and earnestness that it just works. And beautifully so. Obviously I think all of the bonus tracks are essential, but the title track is amazing as a closer, and really ties the whole album together.

The ending almost always makes you want to tear up a little, if you have a heart that is.
IT IS POP PERFECTION.

You've never watched the sun hit the water and it shows.
Saw her in Chicago on Saturday and not only was the crowd absolutely wild (in the best way), but also she played 28 (!!!) songs. Her energy was incredible. Julien into Sideways into Warmblood was life altering. Your Type into For Sure into Go Find Yourself left me stunned and then Cry into Surrender My Heart into When I Needed You cured my depression permanently.
The whole room sang along to most songs. My friend brought a pride fan and Carly took it from him during Call Me Maybe (found video of it on twitter) and then gave it back to him! He has not recovered. Truly a magical night I'll never forget.

Finally people realize this. I've been waiting patiently as we've gone from 'this is her worst album' to 'hmm this is mostly good minus Beach House' to the truth - this is a front-to-back fantastic album and the 2nd best of the year behind Renaissance.

I still can't listen to Beach House but otherwise it's pretty fucking bulletproof. I'd say this beats Dedicated Side B as her second best album after Emotion.
Same, this whole album is golden.
The Loneliest Time is my song of 2022, it makes me want to roll in glitter and twirl for hours on end. It’s so warm and touching, but sparkly and zesty at the same time. The melody is like liquid gold, I just adore it.
Also, I’m not here for any So Nice slagging, yes it’s twee but in the BEST way. It’s the cutest bop, just makes me want to bop like a middle aged woman at a wedding with a plate of quiche in her hand.
Was not a huge fan of it by itself, but yeah, it works very well as a closer.
The whole album made me appreciate Beach House- it's fun!
Beach House is nowhere near the best thing here but it didn’t deserve the lashings y’all seemed so fervent on giving it. It’s fun and kinda sexy? Or maybe I’m just starved of male attention.
