Kacey Musgraves - Deeper into the Well

[boom bazooka joe]

I love the way she said “fuck a chorus, yall are getting three story verses and you’re gonna love it.”

 

[theelusivechanteuse]

I’m going to be critical because I love her: the melody borrows a bit much from Biscuits, and I wish there was a little more something to differentiate this from her pre-star-crossed albums.

It’s pretty though.

 

[iRelate]

She always comes back around exactly when I need her and somehow encapsulates the things I’m feeling in my life at this very moment.

 

[theelusivechanteuse]

Not Hannah Lux Davis. She did that.

 

[drewsky]

I hate the standard cover but love the song. You win some, you lose some.

 

[MC54]

I like the full version of the photo with the cassette. The crop is awkward on the vinyl / CD.

 

[Someboy]

A real pull the emergency brake and course-correct moment if I've ever heard... and seen... one.

But I don't know that it lands perfectly, there's something unresolved in the verse melody.

 

[lushLuck]

Hannah Lux Davis finally dropping the pink AND the blue?! I’m not sure I’ve ever experienced such growth. She really found that… deeper well.

 

[Euphoria]

I love her so much, but surely this must be a joke??

 

[minorkey]

I don't know what it is but Kacey makes music for a perennial fall.

 

[Alenko]

Oh I love this.

Also the music video, wow Iceland is so beautiful.

 

[believeagain]

I actually loved starcross but this is beautiful and I’m very excited for this album.

Weirdly the song is giving me iconic BBC show Detectorists but I might just be tired.

 

[spaceship]

Oh, this is great

Spoiler

 

[bonnieetclyde]

On first play it isn't doing much for me but she sounds lovely.

 

[digitalkaiser]

I love this, a real grower. Simple, ethereal and very kacey.

 

[Jonathan27]

The way that aquatic sounding synth comes in midway like she's finally tapped into the well in the title...mind of a mastermind.

No regrets, baby, I just think that maybe it's natural when things lose their shine is a classic Kacey gut punch.

 

[Laurence]

Can’t wait for flip-flop anthem Giver / Taker.

 

[Sean_ius]

A little bit obsessed with this.

 

[Lapras]

Have some of the people dissing “star-crossed” (not necessarily in this thread) actually listened to the album?

 

[aboutyounow]

Starcrossed isn’t a bad album at all. Just coming off the literal high of Golden Hour, the album never had a chance because of the lofty goals its predecessor put on it.
