/mu/ loves Grimes and Lavren but why no love for Canadian electropop singer Lights?

Little Machines was by far the best pop album of 2014
>>
we don't need another fukcing waifu, go away

I don't like her music. She looks stupid too.

that girl is ugly as fuck

also /mu/ doesn't love grimes, at most 5 people who frequent here love grimes

the popular opinion is she's an insufferable cunt with a few decent tracks

I can't believe she allowed Toes to be ruined with all the white noise distortion they layered into it.
Unlistenable for anyone who knows anything.

She collaborated with the experimental band Holy Fuck on the album Siberia. Holy Fuck sound like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HEzy1fdOsQ
>>
>>71366015
Holy Fuck they sound stupid and ruined what should have been a much bigger song for her.
If you really do like her, why would you defend them?
>>
>>71365982
Those people cared enough to vote. She has at least few thousands of fans here. Most of these fans don't visit /mu/ daily anyway.
>>
>>71366069
Because I like both Lights and Holy Fuck.
>>
>>71366073
no, she only has 70 fans
>>
>>71365234
Because her music isn't very interesting in the grand scheme of things.

Man, I saw her live at manchester academy when she was touring with does it offend you yeah? in 2009.
During her set, guys kept screaming get your tits out. Chilled with her after the show, honestly one of the chillest girls ive ever met.

Her crowd is much more mellow nowadays since she's almost always the headliner and people are actually there to see her. Got her to sign my CD n shit, super chill

Every time I bring up Lights on /mu/ no one knows who she is. Her older music is godly, especially the acoustic songs. Her newer music just sounds like bland pop garbage, to me. My wife took me to one of her shows about a year ago. There was a grown man playing 3ds out in the middle of the floor during the show. He had a man bun, a plaid flannel, and thick, black framed glasses. She sort of sold out. She makes the skanks you /mu/tants always post look like dogs.

That's because you're dumb new waifufag.
>>
>>71367367
I know about an artist that others don't and I'm the dumb one? I just don't like to circle jerk over the same old shit you fags always post about it. Grimes and Death Grips, it's all I ever see on here.
>>
>>71367456
You're stupid. Grimes is actually great irl.
>>
>>71365234
everything about this photo is contrived. disgusting.
>>
>>71367482
You know Grimes irl? I didn't say whether she was great or not, I just said you fags never stop talking about her. You still haven't explained why you think I'm dumb. You just use the term as an insult, much like a 6 year old.
>he dumb hurrdurr.
>>
>>71367306

Little Machines is still better than Siberia, and The Listending sounded fairly generic back then. Give Little Machines another try. The first 2-3 tracks are the worst part, the rest of it is good shit

>>71367456

/mu/ like obscure stuff, but not TOO OBSURE, otherwise its "shit know one's heard of"
>>
>>71365655
You know what, you sold me with the tattoos, I'll check her out, thanks
>>
>>71365234
Lights is a great girl. 3 great albums, and her acoustic versions are pretty great too. Glad to finally see some people talking about her here!

>>71368102
Idk, at the time Siberia was near-flawless. And The Listening sounds better now than it did when it was released, to be honest... great melodies on there. Little Machines maaay be her best, but the highs were higher on Siberia. I can't say LM has any songs as good as Timing Is Everything or And Counting (though it does have Muscle Memory and Meteorites... which are stellar)

+Wtf mate, Portal is one of the best songs! So soothing! Running with the Boys is A+ as well
Besides the bonus tracks, the weakest are Oil and Water & Slow Down back to back, and then maybe Up We Go


If anybody likes Art Angels then they should listen to Lights' albums as well. Ellie Goulding's as well
(related: I always wanted Ellie and Lights to collab, since Ellie's first album actually was 'Lights')
>>
>>71368594

I still love every Lights song, but Portal is just really weak to me. Oil and Water and slow down aren't weak to me really

Also Ellie Goulding is complete fucking garbage, IMO
>>
>>71365234
fuck whoever made this fl that one time
I have autism so I never deleted it in case mut gets revived and I lose 100% seeding but holy shit it's not very good
>>
>>71368993

I'm sure it's better than whatever autistic shit you got off there
>>
>>71368971
So besides Portal, what are your least favorites on LM? Or her other albums for that matter?
Siberia's for me were Cactus in the Valley and Flux and Flow

The Listening's were all pretty same-y, none really worse than the other. Besides reprising like *all* of Pretend at the end of the album; that wasn't necessary

But it's weird that you think Ellie is *that* bad if you're a decent fan of Lights, my man. Were there only a few certain songs you heard, or an album in particular?
I think the two've got similar singing ability, and both are quite smart in their vocal melodies and hooks. They even kinda have a same progression with their respective 3 albums, which I think is a really cool parallel
>>
>>71368971
>Also Ellie Goulding is complete fucking garbage
Found the pleb.

Caught her by accident at Lollapalooza a few years back. She was surprisingly awesome, put on a very heartfelt performance and really engaged the crowd.
>>
>>71369502
This. Ellie Goulding is so underrated here. She has a string of great singles (except that annoying Burn song).
>>
>>71369529
Yes, her worst are easily those EDM attempts that usually are from someone else trying to get her on them

Glad to see there's at least a few anons that are also fans
>>
>>71369648
I really like her. I've seen some recordings of her shows and she always delivers a great performance.
>>
>>71369502

I just can't stand her voice and the music isn't good either. Gave her first 2 albums a solid try, 3rd one was complete trash.
>>
>>71370442
Well, honestly... I just disagree.
I think her voice is good and adorable.
Nice light English accent too.

And the music was more noticeable with her singer-songwriter status on the first album with her acoustic guitar, but I think it's always been solid.
And I think her latest album is her best...sure it's a little long and a liitle same-y, but it really just is a flexing of pop muscle. She showed – like good pop artists before her – that you can make a good pop song a million different ways. Each song on that album, bonus tracks included, is a pretty good example of a good pop tune.

Sure, it wasn't as unique as Art Angels, which was the best pure "pop" album of 2015, but still. I loved it!
>>
>>71371761
AA wasn't really pure pop tbch. Something like Emotion was.

As for Ellie, she has a nice voice and good songwriting skills. I liked her debut album the most.
>>
>>71371837
Definitely fair. I more meant against something like Currents, which was my favorite album of that year, and I know plenty of anons would yell that 'that's just as shitty pop as the rest of them', etc.

But Your Biggest Mistake and This Love will forever be jams. Wish I Stayed is absolutely gorgeous as well.
>>
midnight machines is pretty good

I agree with with everyone ITT: LIGHTS is pure garbage and definitely not /mu/-core. She doesn't fit with our fucking horrid bookstore barista-tier musical taste. I think if anyone here enjoys her music they will lose all credibility and will likely die sad and alone.

So please, let's stop discussing LIGHTS and go back to the harshnoise Frank Zappa/Death Grips circlejerk we normally have

cheesy can be good, if it comes from the heart. That song def comes from the heart. I've heard it before here and there, didn't know it was her. Thanks for the other links Anon.
>>
>>71374565
Oh, I do to! That's what makes plenty of McCartney's songs great, right?

Glad you appreciate 'em, anon!
If you really like that song, I definitely recommend her first album 'The Listening'!
