As much as I love the self-titled record (and I fucking LOVE it)... sandwiched between Strange Mercy and Masseduction, it has the feel of a compilation or best of album. I don't mean that as a knock per se, but it's so much less cohesive than the work immediately before and after. Weird. I don't think I noticed that until tonight. |

"I've seen America with no clothes on." Does she mean herself or America? Which one is naked? Does it matter? |

It's an amazing song. Really, There isn't a sub-par song on Strange Mercy. It's a great record, front to back. |

My top 5 is something like Strange Mercy Cruel Paris Is Burning Pills (I know it isn't particularly popular here but damn I love that tune) All My Stars Alligned or Birth in Reverse |

Like, I respect that many fans don't think of Love This Giant as a "proper" St. Vincent record. I do. I get it. But FUCk it's good. Whatever you want to call it, I call it gripping, fun and welcome. |

I think this might be my favorite record of hers at this point, most of the songs are excellent, the first 6 on my ranking are amongst my favorite things she's ever done. I really dislike Young Lover though. Pills Smoking Section Hang On Me Slow Disco Masseduction Los Ageless Sugarboy Fear the Future Happy Birthday, Johnny Savior New York Dancing With a Ghost Young Lover |
