  Seven Songs For The Week #59 - 22nd May 24

  Jason Carty

  Q2 of 2024 has seen album releases from the big three. Swift, Lipa and Eilish. Now these things aren't a competition, but they also are a competition. Swift's album has stayed rooted at the number one spot in the US where Dua's album couldn't dislodge it and it's had a big drop in week two. Dua's album feels badly timed and incomplete - the big singles put out a little too far in advance, and they haven't been as ubiquitous as her previous songs. Meanwhile, in spite of its success, I don't think TTPD is attracting any new fans. Fortnight is a very slight song, IMO. Enter Billie Eilish.

  Hit Me Hard and Soft is a very good album, and she's won! LUNCH is a big chunky hit, loveable from the off. This track struck me on first listen.
