详细介绍:

Like Lady Gaga, Rina Sawayama understands the beauty of camp and that there can be intensely real human emotion under all that artifice. On the British-Japanese singer%27s sophomore album, she presents a euphoric, glam country-pop stunner, This Hell—complete with neighing horses and a cheerleader chant, a Paris Hilton quote (a droll That%27s hot) and a Shania Twain tribute (the first line: Let%27s go, girls!), and topped with a thick slice of guitar-solo cheese. There are references to Britney Spears, Lady Di, Whitney Houston, The Devil Wears Prada and a thirsty Satan as Sawayama cheekily LOLs about being warned she%27s going to hell for liking girls—but, hey, This hell is better with you! It%27s the definition of gilding the lily, and it is glorious. Blinded by the disco-ball glitter of Catch Me in the Air—inspired by, of all bands, The Corrs—you might not realize the track is about her relationship with her mom, a single parent who didn%27t speak English while living in London, and the complicated support they gave each other as Sawayama was growing up. Or that the chill, early 2000s R&B pop of the title track is supporting a story about digging deep and reclaiming herself: Sometimes I just wanna run away/ Leave behind that old me, start again/ Then I%27ll remember who I%27m really made of/

And she%27s been hide-and-seeking, waiting all alone. Is it any wonder Sawayama wrote the song after a therapy session while working through some leftover teenage trauma? In fact, she has said the album was born of a more intensive therapy she%27s been practicing, focused on the notion of re-parenting yourself—in other words, figuring out how to provide what you didn%27t get enough of as a child. The dreamy Phantom is about realizing in adulthood that, as a girl, pleasing the world, dying to be liked, she weakened her own boundaries to please other people: Stickers and scented gel pens/ Give possessions, get friends … I%27ve been trying to find her since/ She gave a little too much away. Frankenstein is ultra high-tension, with Bloc Party%27s former drummer Matt Tong setting the 130-BPM pacing as Sawayama pleads for metaphorical reinvention: Put me together, make me better, love me forever … I don%27t wanna be a monster anymore. There are moments of Celine Dion-style grandeur (Forgiveness), and the float-like-a-butterfly, sting-like-a-bullet dichotomy of Evanescence (Your Age, on which the industrial music drops out and Sawayama intones: You fuck with my life). And Send My Love to John surprises with acoustic guitar folky tenderness, as the singer imagines a mom apologizing to a son—accepting him and his love, John, after a lifetime imagining her boy with a girl and hiding behind the bible rather than standing up for him.
