Can I just say that I am in absolute LOVE with Brendon Urie after seeing him perform and just the pure love that exudes from this man?? I have multiple vids that I will post but omg what a great night with great friends!!
I am so jelly. Imo he’s one of the best vocalists right now and I’d die to get to hear him live
I’ve just listened to songs from Pray for the Wicked that I haven’t heard before, and so far, “Roaring 20ies” is my favourite of the bunch (except “(Fuck) A Silver Lining” and “High Hopes” but these two have a bit of a mileage lol). It reminds me of certain songs from Glory Days by Little Mix, along with “King of the Clouds”.
I was very excited to hear what “Hey Look Ma, I Made It” sounded like, and I probably hyped myself up too much because I was disappointed. It’s not bad, but compared to the others, it’s pretty ‘meh’.
I love how unorthodox “Old Fashioned” is; while listening for the first time, I could not predict what turn it was gonna take, even in the second, usually repetitive half of the song.
Brendon did an excellent job; I love how diverse the sound is but at the same time you can hear that the songs are interwoven underneath. I also love that it’s a very upbeat album, because it makes me cherish “Dying in LA” as the only ballad even more.
I’m gonna listen to the album as a whole now and marvel at the brilliance of our lord and saviour Beebo some more.
First I wake up to a message from my sister informing me of the existence of “Say Amen (Saturday Night)”, then I listen to it and die, bc aw yiss Brendon is so talented; also that fucking video is soo good and it reminds me of fight sequences from Kingsman movies and I absolutely love Kingsman.
Then I discover the other new P!atD song, “(Fuck a) Silver Lining”, get hyped the fuck up, and now I get a notification for this performance? It’s such a b eatiful day today and I am fangirling hard.
I need to point out some things tho:
1. What kind of a magical creature lives in Brendon’s hair bc damn that always looks so soft and fluffy
2. Can’t stay still when he’s jumping around having fun like that
3. That backing track gives me life
4. The moment when the trumpet, trombone and saxophone join in? Sign me the fuck up. Also this part? So good
5. That sudden change in the atmosphere and the lights turning to red, you just know it’s coming
7. And last but not least, the cherry on top that is the build-up to and the flawless execution of the most epic high note ever
8. I’m Jimmy and the audience every time I listen to this song and also every other P!atD song from the last three albums (disclaimer: I love previous albums too)
I haven’t been this excited for an album since Death of a Bachelor so yeah, cant wait for June 22.
