She’s still making the circuit of talk shows, and she got the Apple interview, but yeah she seems happy doing her own thing and staying at a manageable level of fame. Can’t say I blame her.
I'm a big fan of Clairo as well. "Immunity" is one of my personal favorite records and I usually spin it when I need to relax. While I wasn't as hot on "Sling," it still was good though I worried my bias would keep me from appreciating anything she did as much as her first. I'm happy to report that after one listen, "Charm" stands to be one of my favorites of the year. The production is strong and lyrics enjoyable. It captures what drew me to her in the first place and expands on those ideas. It's a nice evolution and I'm sure will be one of my go to records when I need to slow down for a few.
I think Sling was sort of a reset for her and likely to get out of her label requirements. Charm is just next level compared to it. A much fuller bodied and freer production overall. I was not a fan of her work with Antonoff beyond the lyric work
I feel like it there has to be a greater power at work as to why so many people are dropping this year. Like Clairo she can drop whenever but everyone else piling this year makes me wonder if there’s a touring location issue or perhaps a big change in how music will be distributed.
Glory of the Snow grew on me the more I listened and indeed it really reminded me of birds of a feather. While BoaF is someone who is entering that burning phase of love, Glory of the Snow is the aftermath of that burn that ultimately went out.
Sling still on top. Going to take a lot for someone to make anything that touches me like that record. Been a fan since 2017, and Charm is so good, but Sling is just, idk. I'm glad it grew on you! Top 5 albums of all time for me. Also, Echo is awesome, yeah - feels like a Broadcast song.
I feel like we have very similar music tastes! Brat, hit me hard and soft and charm are skipless albums for me too! I don’t know if it is just me but this record is very reminiscent of the Beatles for me
This is definitely my favourite smaller artist era of this year, I still think Brat, The Tortured Poets department, Hit me hard and Soft, Meghan, Radical optimism, Eternal sunshine, Older, and Deeper well are better AOTY contenders and the albums I’m rooting for at this moment. (I know some of these aren’t popular choices, especially TTPDTA but I can’t stop going back to these records ) This album feels very Camila Cabello debut era to me, more lyrically than sonically. But that won’t stop me from loving this album. I really enjoy this analog sound and I can see this growing on me the way TTPDTA and Brat did. It’s a skinless album, even if I will be skipping around the album now to just find the song I’m in the mood for. It’s stunning and worth a listen, hard to pin down for a review, go listen it’s a 9.9/10 please go listen to this, it’s perfect in this year of deep cut records
This record was really nice & it was refreshing to get an album from an artist who has taken a break. I’d love to see you review Remi Wolf’s new album if you could as well, “Big Ideas” i f you feel like it, since she’s also an indie pop // rock artist !!
Honestly, I might make a vid on her in general and maybe Griff down the line. Love indie pop rock sm and need a break every now and then from major pop girl drops
I've listened to this new album a lot and would say now that it's my favorite, after being a Clairo fan since 2018. But all the growing I've done since then, i might need to really go back to the previous albums with a closer listen
It’s a really mature record (not to say her older works aren’t already p smart and layered), I revisited Sling in my own time and liked it much better this time but Charm is just it for me 💚
really loved this album! would you ever do a video on Griff? truly an amazing innovative artist! she won BRITS best new artist or artist on the rise, opened for Taylor etc! her new album has moments of Imogen Heap truly amazing!
Another absolute banger of an album, they just keep coming. Deeper Well, TTPD, Brat, HMHS, and Charm are defo the highlights, and also Desire Everasking Edition if that counts.
Definitely when I have time to do rewind videos. I adored both of those records for different reasons, Immunity is a perfect time capsule of 2019 and the promise of bedroom pop before TikTok more or less commercialized too much. Sling on the other hand, a record she was too young to write/produce yet it ages beautifully.
Clairo going independent is probably why we haven’t seen much promo, that and she doesn’t seem to wanna be famous
That makes all the sense in the world. I find it a nice little change in pace.
There has been a lot of promo, she was on Jimmy Fallon and I've seen a bunch of billboard's on social media.
She’s still making the circuit of talk shows, and she got the Apple interview, but yeah she seems happy doing her own thing and staying at a manageable level of fame. Can’t say I blame her.
Probably one of my favorite records of the year hands-down
I loved it so much! I had to cover it!
Sling will forever be my favorite

Nah I agree with all thay so much🎉
@@EljohnMacaranas interesting, sling is one of my favorite albums ever instrumentally
@@klinerd9603 I know right! I think Sling is much better than Immunity. It makes me FEEL things I thought I couldn't be felt.
I feel the exact same way!
Just discovered Clairo. Love her!
She's amazing! Her trio of albums are all distinct yet still satisfying. Really someone who treats music like an adventure.
it feels like artists who dropped in 2021 are all dropping now, like hmhas, clairo, and kinda olivia rodrigo and im so here for it!
I feel like it there has to be a greater power at work as to why so many people are dropping this year. Like Clairo she can drop whenever but everyone else piling this year makes me wonder if there’s a touring location issue or perhaps a big change in how music will be distributed.
yeah I'm still crossing my fingers for more Lorde this year xx
I would love videos on her previous two albums
Maybeeeee
@@EljohnMacaranasyesssss I need to hear your thoughts on immunity!! my favorite album ever
Glory of the Snow grew on me the more I listened and indeed it really reminded me of birds of a feather. While BoaF is someone who is entering that burning phase of love, Glory of the Snow is the aftermath of that burn that ultimately went out.
YES
Sling still on top. Going to take a lot for someone to make anything that touches me like that record. Been a fan since 2017, and Charm is so good, but Sling is just, idk. I'm glad it grew on you! Top 5 albums of all time for me. Also, Echo is awesome, yeah - feels like a Broadcast song.
Sling def needed to marinate for me a bit, I was listening to Amoeba the other day and it still hits
I feel like we have very similar music tastes! Brat, hit me hard and soft and charm are skipless albums for me too! I don’t know if it is just me but this record is very reminiscent of the Beatles for me
YES it feels like a modernist take on classic Beatles like the lush instrumental work, the abstract lyricism. She ate.
@@EljohnMacaranas she definitely did. Some of her best work to date.
imo the album represents her growth in music and as a person
I think it’s def a sequel to Sling and also a little meta touch on going fully indie
Sling is magical
This is definitely my favourite smaller artist era of this year, I still think Brat, The Tortured Poets department, Hit me hard and Soft, Meghan, Radical optimism, Eternal sunshine, Older, and Deeper well are better AOTY contenders and the albums I’m rooting for at this moment.

NO SKIP ALBUM
FRFR

just a beautifully produced album. i wasn't really a claro fan before but i really like this album.
my favorite was second nature and nomad !!
Second Nature’s so pretty, one of my fave productions this year!
got the thumbnail with sally from cars! 😭😭😭
Hahaha, I’m shocked how many people are getting that thumb, I had it made as a joke and it ended up being the main thumb 😭
She abounds with talent
Truly generational
Charm is definitely my favourite Clairo album. I like EVERY SINGLE TRACK. and im NOT an album person
Oh that’s v high praise in world that’s r all about singles again I think
This record is lovely. I enjoy the instrumentation and look forward to sitting with the record a while. It’s joyful melancholia, perfect for me time.
It’s so lush and perfect for quiet contemplation. I was glad to have it to sorta cushion my Brat burnout
This is hid best work so far so mature so chill so well worked i do think she is gonna take at least 5 years to drop another record
She can take all the time she needs! We can wait!
I've listened to this new album a lot and would say now that it's my favorite, after being a Clairo fan since 2018. But all the growing I've done since then, i might need to really go back to the previous albums with a closer listen

I’m def covering Griff at some point! I adore her!
Another absolute banger of an album, they just keep coming. Deeper Well, TTPD, Brat, HMHS, and Charm are defo the highlights, and also Desire Everasking Edition if that counts.
Honestly, one of the best years in pop
i fucking love it icl
It’s such a good album! So happy for Claire!
Can we please get a video on Sling or even Immunity? neeeeddd to hear your opinions on her previous work
Definitely when I have time to do rewind videos. I adored both of those records for different reasons, Immunity is a perfect time capsule of 2019 and the promise of bedroom pop before TikTok more or less commercialized too much. Sling on the other hand, a record she was too young to write/produce yet it ages beautifully.
Brat really might have some competition for aoty right hear
The way AOTY has been challenged for me like 4 times in the same year… 2024 is the gift that keeps giving
I love your commentary! Great references (if you mention Carole king I’ll trust you immediately). HMHAS and Brat are also no skips for me
Thank you! Haha my mom and grandparents were big on making sure I knew classics in a bunch of genres.
The last half of the album is like def the best of the decade
Pier 4 has to be one of her best in years
Clairo the GOAT
Truly has never missed.
They call her Clairo because clairly she cannot miss
So trueeeee
I rly like Sling but this record is rly good too
Sling’s a really strong record, shame it got lost in the pandemic shuffle
Nothing will ever come close to Her Debut Album -Immunity
Immunity’s one of my fave debut records so I def get that
yes
🙂↕️
I think you accidentally typed an extra “is” in the title, i had to re read a couple times to make sense of it :D
He did
Fixed it!
An yes my favorite born rich inde white woman love her music tho beautiful
Best nepo baby
why is Sally from cars on the miniature?
Oh you got the joke thumbnail! I have A/B testing on!
This aoty but it maybe challenged once beabadoobee drops
Bee 💙
everytime i hear echo it reminds me of dirty trip by air, anyone else hearing the resemblance?
I had to search up the song and yeah, there’s a bit of similarity, the melody feels close
YES
Agreed!
do you plan on listening to vertigo by griff??
Oh def! I love Griff so much! One of the best songwriters of the modern times
our Carole King
YES!
did anyone catch the weyes blood shade
