She/Her/Queen
I know I said this three times now but just started on this album and Miss A Thing/Real Groove have so much potential but she still sounds bored as fuck (the same issue I had with all the pre released tracks).

It was like someone forced her to record it in the studio. Where is the joy? It’s just so lifeless and flat.

She sounded so much better on Golden. Sawry, drags.

Am I listening to the same tracks? Could not disagree more.
 
My fellow super fan of a boyfriend and I just had our first listen and we both somehow completely agree (for once) that in our opinions...
- Miss a Thing is one of the standouts and an absolutely amazing second track.
- Where Does the DJ Go? is harmless but super enjoyable.
- Supernova is great.
- Whoever said Last Chance is ABBA-esque was right on the money. Sounds so similar to Voulez-Vous at points.
- Dance Floor Darling is another standout and though the speed up is a little jarring at first, it’s a lot of fun.
- Monday Blues and Unstoppable are fillers along with I Love It
- and for the most part, all of the bonus tracks deserve to be bonus tracks. Which is amazing since I personally always think “why isn’t *insert song here* on the standard edition?”

Overall, not blown away nor disappointed but very happy and enjoying it. Exactly what I expected.

Exactly the same here! (except for I Love It)
 
Dance Floor Darling is the one. Sounds like something that would have played over the end credits of a Goldie Hawn/Tom Selleck classic film. Just 3 minutes too short.

These are the stand outs for me as well. Those 5 feel like they hit the sweet spot of the modern disco vibe without veering too deeply into pastiche.

Those are my favorites from the album tracks, too. Where Does the DJ Go? is quite the rush, though. Reminds me of something Girls Aloud would have done with a "disco" theme.
 
Finished my second listen. Most of the songs are great - even the ones that didn’t do much for me on the first play.

That being said, I definitely think the album will sound much better if the songs were arranged differently. I know many won’t agree with me on this. There were points on the album where I felt like I needed a breather.

I’ll listen to the songs on shuffle for a while and try to figure out a track order that will help me enjoy this album more.
