Critics compared the song to Madonna’s Confessions On A Dancefloor era, but I initially thought of her album track Impressive Instant from 2000’s Music album. Hallucinate is one of Lipa’s biggest bangers and is an obvious standout from first listen. The collab became Angèle’s first song to be introduced to English-speaking audiences and showcased Lipa as an artist who is able to dip into any genre. The 2-minute-30 song is a melodic slice of bilingual pop that is definitely one of Lipa’s more sexy numbers. Fever with Angèleįever with Belgian singer Angèle is one sensual bop that deserved way more attention. The song features the most perfect chorus and could easily serve as a single. That Kind Of Woman hears Lipa return to the “dark pop” sound she used to describe her music as during the earlier days of her career. The ’80s-inspired track showcased both of their gritty tones and proved to be a risk worth taking. Prisoner is basically what NME described it as: “a disco-punk anthem that goes off like a cherry bomb.” It’s tough, glamorous, and feisty. But, who is complaining?Ĭyrus invited Lipa into her glam-rock era while both songstresses were at their creative peak. Prisoner is ultimately a song that is a part of Miley Cyrus’ Plastic Hearts album and only ended up on the deluxe of Future Nostalgia because it was a success.
The sultry and tropical song probably won’t go down as one of her most legendary singles but is likely to remain a little gem in her discography. However, it has the most catchy and karaoke-style chorus that demands to be belted out. We’re Good was the lead single for the album’s reissue and doesn’t really fit in with Lipa’s previous disco theme. The lyrics discuss themes of feminism and self-reflection while being tongue-in-cheek at the same time. Its funky and futuristic production sets the tone of the LP incredibly well and is one of Lipa’s most experiential songs to date.
The album title track appears to not be a fan-favorite and doesn’t seem to get the love it deserves. It just isn’t a favorite of mine.Īnd yes, Miss Lipa. But quite frankly, Break My Heart is just an all-round great pop song that is perfect for radio. Break My HeartĪ lot of people are probably going to potentially question why this hit song is so far down the list. During Lipa’s virtual Studio 2054 concert, this song was pleasantly a highlight. However, once you get over that, you realize that Pretty Please is a funky track that sounds like an ode to the late Prince. After a euphoric rush of bops, Pretty Please slows down the energy halfway through and almost ruins the mood. On first listen, Pretty Please stands out for all the wrong reasons. We change our ways to fit somebody else’s lifestyle. You cover up yourself to avoid confrontation from men, avoid sexual harassment, people throwing words or catcalling.
“For me was walking home from school and putting keys through my knuckles … So much of the human experience for women revolves around men how they make us feel, whether that is good or bad. In a 2020 interview with Vogue Australia, Lipa discussed the meaning behind the personal song. However, it just doesn’t remain a highlight. It made complete sense to put this song at the end of the tracklisting and has a very beautiful stripped-back production that finishes the album on a thought-provoking note.īoys Will Be Boys is one of the songs closest to Dua’s heart and lyrically tackles an important message. Boys Will Be Boys is pretty much the only real slow number to be heard on the original Future Nostalgia release.
