Absolutely amazing song and I usually don't like this kind of music.

I said I'd catch you if you fall
And if they laugh, then fuc k 'em all (All)
And then I got you off your knees
Put you right back on your feet
Just so you can take advantage of me
Tell me how's it feel sittin' up there
Feeling so high but too far away to hold me
You know I'm the one who put you up there
Name in the sky
Does it ever get lonely?
How many times have you given someone confidence to feel good about themselves just to see them use it to think they're above you?
Brilliant song.

generally a song that resonates with you on a personal level may be overrated for that fact alone.
i don't think it is in my personal top 5, but isn't that the beauty in music? it's subjective to our experiences.

True.
But do you like this song?
I love it.
But I've been in quite a few heart breaking relationships.

the song is cool, i think this modern pop is cool to listen to once in a while.
but it doesn't resonate with me on a personal level bc i have never experienced that tbh. i can understand why you'd like it tho since you have experienced that.
i do think much better pop songs exist though.

Why all Madonna?
Cry me a river by Timberlake is a great one.
A lot of Prince songs.
Etc.

Autotune, an electronic beat and an ultra simple flow.
So much awesomeness

So Kenneth if you had to rank Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, Whitney Houston, Tina Turner, Laura Branigan, and Belinda Carlisle 1-6. How would you rank them?

No offense m8 but Whitney Houston is in a class above these women. They are great no doubt but she is above.

Her vocal range maybe. Hell she's probably better than even Linda Ronstadt before her and Mariah Carey after her in that regard. Adele? Maybe that's where she starts getting some competition. But I'm talking about pure enjoyability of their music.

Her songs were enjoyable :confusedshrug: there is something about a powerful voice like Whitney's and Tina's voice. They could sing about anything and it would be amazing.

Houston doesnt have any competition for vocal ability. But youre right, comparing songs =/= comparing singers. Altho none of these chicks write their own songs, anyway. Nor did any of the boy bands. So they dont deserve much credit for having good songs.

Its special. I didn't notice how good the song was until I paid attention to it. The lyrics, the delivery, the beat. Its a great composition that you don't often find on the radio. Its definitely a top 3 pop song of 2018.
