Username: welcome2thejam

Album: The Loneliest Time

Surrender My Heart: 7

Joshua Tree: 9 She saw Charlie Puth leave a track behind when he fell back to earth after Attention and said "well if nobody else wants to use this"

Talking To Yourself: 10 Yeah, this got that classic Carly bop spirit

Far Away: 5

Sideways: 5

Beach House: 8 "I'm probably gonna hurt your feelings" - Raters on their Beach House scores at Indieheads Ultimate

Bends: 9 Writing "Oh hey, this is really capturing such a dreary and moody yet enticing vibe. I like it" while eating a string cheese stick in my kitchen at 2pm

Western Wind: 8 Crazy, my fingers just started automatically typing things like "#Coachellavibes 😎☀️⛱"

So Nice: 7 Insert Taylor Swift Bejeweled "Nice!" sound effect here

Bad Thing Twice: 5 Nice groove, but doesn't do enough with it

Shooting Star: 9 The gut instinct to hear that voice effect and call this hyperpop

Go Find Yourself or Whatever: 7

The Loneliest Time: 11 Sorry gang, I missed the Emotion rerate and thus my chance to drop the basic but understandable Carly 11, so allow me this. Fantastic melody, the two sound awesome together, and the "to the moon" bit is just one great moment of many on this track

Anxious: 9 Could've easily replaced a few of these songs and did what they do better

No Thinking Over the Weekend: 7 Way ahead of you, I got a cooler full of cold ones, my Saturdays Are For The Boys flag, and a desire to hop over things that usually aren't hopped over

Keep Away: 8

Album: Crash

Crash: 9 Himalayas fancam unrivaled

New Shapes (feat. Christine and the Queens and Caroline Polachek): 9 Those two notes after the "what you want" are so magical

Good Ones: 9 Too danceable

Constant Repeat: 8 Kinda hitting the same themes as Talking To Yourself. Don't know if she really 100% nails that bad girl image tbh

Beg For You (feat. Rina Sawayama): 6

Move Me: 6 It's okay, though she is doing a really good job with those "everything drops out but one thing" segments in this album

Baby: 10 Watching the best moment of this song over and over on the weekly chart videos caused me to become Baby-pilled over the past few months

Lightning: 10 I can feel it! The power of an absolute top tier smasha coursing through my veins!

Every Rule: 6 Break the Rules came out nine years ago, talk about a lack of character development

Yuck: 6 I don't have the app, did this Tik Tok bait work?

Used to Know Me: 9 I mean the sample went from club banger to also club banger, idk what else you could want

Twice: 4 Bad Thing: Twice

Selfish Girl: 7 🙋‍♂️

How Can I Not Know What I Need Right Now: 7

Sorry If I Hurt You: 8

What You Think About Me: 7

Album: Hold The Girl

Minor Feelings: 6 Very solid intro

Hold the Girl: 7 I liked when it became a Kingdom Hearts song

This Hell: 8

Catch Me in the Air: 8 Liked this one, nice ballad, didn't feel overdone

Forgiveness: 4 What do you mean this is supposed to be "in the world of The Bends-era Radiohead"

Holy (Til You Let Me Go): 9 Alright, I'm down with the church rave song

Your Age: 6

Imagining: 10 Hell yes, this feels like a fantastic follow-up to the rock-infused tracks I loved off SAWAYAMA

Frankenstein: 10 If Rina wanted to do her version of 2000s Bloc Party, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV on the Radio, etc, from here on out, I would be all "you go, girl"

Hurricanes: 7 Solid pop rock track, feels like a Kelly Clarkson hit that was lost to time

Send My Love to John: 7

Phantom: 6 Her voice and the guitar doing two separate carry jobs

To Be Alive: 7

Album: Dirt Femme

No One Dies from Love: 4 Dawg, people die from love all the time. Get out of here with this

Suburbia: 8

2 Die 4: 8 Regret to say Neil Cicierega's Floor Corn poisoned me on anything that uses or will use this interpolation

True Romance: 6 Awesome news! I looked up "true romance joker harley" on youtube and all of the relevant results were made before this song came out!

Grapefruit: 8

Cute & Cruel (feat. First Aid Kit): 7

Call on Me (with SG Lewis): 8

Attention Whore (feat. Channel Tres): 9 Solid stretch of mid-album club tracks

Pineapple Slice (with SG Lewis): 10 Yeah, the back and forth between song styles on this album is giving me a lil whiplash, but the past few go together nicely AND bring the average up so

I'm to Blame: 2 There's a Rina song in this rate that felt like a good variation of Kelly Clarkson type pop rock. This is a bleh variation of that

Kick in the Head: 5 Oh, I already know this mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm bit is gonna knock some points off. Shame cause it's got a solid groove and she's hitting a nice mix of playful but wounded, but it annoys me enough to never wanna hear it again

How Long: 10 Is this just Talking to Yourself/Constant Repeat from the third piece of the love triangle

Borderline: 7
