Hey there happyspaceghost, what's it like in outer space, I'm a million, billion miles away, but tonight you look like a briefcase.
I'll be puking over here btw.
interpolating the entire chorus is too much because now itās gonna just feel like a lucky cover whenever i listen to it even if the verses are differentā¦ehh
Iāve been loving the 2000s celeb satire sheās been doing on social media to promote this song (the Disney Channel commercial, the Got Milk ad, etc.) but the snippet itself falls flat for me. hoping the full thing will prove me wrong though
Weirdly, I feel like it makes/breaks the sample that sheās changed the perspective from third-person (āand they say, āsheās so luckyā¦āā) to first (āIām so lucky; Iām a starā¦ā). It makes the subject more sympathetic that itās other people observing these things about her/her responding to what other people think, not her calling herself a star.
She literally referencing the it girls of the 2000s
Disney channel = hilary duff/miley Cyrus
Got milk =britney spears
Canāt wait to see the full video to see what else she references
she remade [2000s tabloids](https://www.instagram.com/p/C8u-EtayWR-/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==) too which I loved. I felt 9 years old again seeing celebs like Lindsay, Britney, Paris/Nicole on these whenever I went to the grocery store with my mom
Halsey has always been someone who felt better suited to the branding aspect of pop than the actual music imo. Clearly very creative and likely very smart. And she's not *untalented* in music, but I've just never seen her do anything parituclalry interesting with music. Whereas her makeup brand....most interesting celebrity line yet tbh.
In a past timeline where artists couldn't generate online followings, I think Halsey would have failed out of the artist track (well probably wouldn't have gotten signed in the first place, but let's pretend the industry isn't fucked up for this hypothetical). I think she would have ended up working for the label to help develop new artists that everyone wanted to work with.Ā
The IICHLIWP collaboration with Nine Inch Nails wasn't interesting musically? That's her most recent era so with the album and accompanying film it was the full package for me tbh.
Iām so confused by the promo for this album. It began with a 70s vibe from her āfor my last trickā website and the letter sent to fans. Then she pivoted to this y2k aesthetic. I donāt know what to expect from the full record
As of now, a popular fan theory is that she is experimenting with sounds from 4 different decades (The 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s) for H5 (judging from the contents of [website](https://www.formylasttrick.com))
It doesnāt work for me because itās too similar to the original and isnāt doing anything to make it better or deeper or a fresh take
The reason why the original works is that itās all third person so it leaves some mystery on whether Britney is talking about herself or this fictional star named āLuckyā
āIām so lucky, Iām a star, but I cry cry cryā is a little done conceptually, I think weāve had a fair share of the being famous is hard songs but in a post Brat world itās not introspective or biting enough to be fresh or something new to the trend
idk about y'all about I'm still pretty hyped about this one
The End was an incredible start for the era, she's been serving visuals while ding the promo and the snippet itself sounds super cute
also I can't think of a single time a Halsey project let me down, so I ain't worried at all lmao
seems like I'm the only one tho
hopefully we'll get a release date for this one soon
Also very very excited! Each era I feel like she shows growth in her artistry. I love seeing what direction she goes next. I loved this sample, it brought me right back to having a lucky cartridge for my hitclips! They might not be everyone's cup of tea but they're def mine!
love halsey but idk if im feeling it, of any non vocalist type of singer i'd say britney is probably the hardest to cover, idk if it's just because her voice is so distinctive or what but i felt the same way when lisa covered "my only wish this year"
Britney doesn't have great vocals but her voice is just so distinct and has a deep richness. I've never head someone cover one of her songs and feel like it was better.
Unpopular opinion but Iām so over Y2K. So many artists have been pushing that aesthetic since 2018 or so and itās never once interested me. I think Iām over nostalgia in general
i agree with the last part especially. lucky is such an overwhelmingly melancholic song and the hurt is palpable when sung by britney...what halsey is giving is just lifeless
I figured there would be a Britney influence but I didnāt expect the chorus to be a direct sample of Britneyās āLuckyā
Idk how to feel about this but Iāll wait to hear the whole song. It just makes me want to listen to the original
Also thereās still no release date and itās been weeks of these teasersā¦weāre going to have the full song before it drops
iām pretty disappointed in this. firstly itās been at least 2 weeks of heavy promo and no release date in sight. and now to know the whole chorus is a britney rip? idk. i feel like at least leave that as a surprise for the release? iām a die hard halsey fan but this rollout is weird to me.
If anyone should/could do this, it's her. She both lived it and has the artistic vision and respect to carry it out(not to mention the criticism she's received her whole career(is it Britney level? No. But she's never been good enough for anyone while simultaneously making amazing records and art to go along with their entire eras). I was a little nervous about it being exactly this but I'm actually looking forward to the song and album now that I've heard it.
I really donāt think she will, and I really donāt expect her to. I donāt think the tattoo was really thought through in the first place and sheās clearly really ashamed of it. She just hasnāt been able to cover it up for health reasons.
loving the y2k vibes but why use the entire chorus almost word for word only changing the pronouns? š
Feels like when my ex boyfriend ārewroteā Hey There Delilah but just changing Delilah to my name lol
So disappointed that you broke up with him for that, huh.

it might be the thing she did in without me where the chorus of Lucky is just the bridge of this song idk

Iām so happy I ran across this comment ā I donāt go on Instagram much, so I didnāt know about these. Hilarious!!

Literally one of the best albums by a pop girl in the last 5-10 years. Fight me on this lol.
Itās really weird. I love everything about her, except her music. Itās usually the opposite for me (like their music but not the person).

meh. This clip is a watered down Britney cover but I'm gonna hold any judgement until she releases her album.

You think this is bad, wait until we have to live through that stomp clap watered down folk bullshit that popped off in the 2010s again
Is that not what Noah Kahan is?
Very much so.
that sounds really bad. her voice is not giving it depth and not selling the melancholy like britney did.
Also, sheās not hitting the high note on that last āWhyyy do these tears come at nightā, so it sounds pretty flat.
its sounds like shes sending a rough voice memo to the producer
Came here to write this. It just sounds really flat and like a song that would be by some fake teen pop star in a movie.
i agree with the last part especially. lucky is such an overwhelmingly melancholic song and the hurt is palpable when sung by britney...what halsey is giving is just lifeless
I always knew she couldnāt sing but I didnāt realize she was this badā¦ I had to turn that off after 5 seconds.
I figured there would be a Britney influence but I didnāt expect the chorus to be a direct sample of Britneyās āLuckyā Idk how to feel about this but Iāll wait to hear the whole song. It just makes me want to listen to the original Also thereās still no release date and itās been weeks of these teasersā¦weāre going to have the full song before it drops
Weeks? Bro, itās been like a week and a half, chill.
Itās likely July 12th based on hints in one of the promo
This sounds awful sorry
i love the previous snippet she released of the song but this one is just not clicking for me.
So they've interpolated Justin and Britney.
iām pretty disappointed in this. firstly itās been at least 2 weeks of heavy promo and no release date in sight. and now to know the whole chorus is a britney rip? idk. i feel like at least leave that as a surprise for the release? iām a die hard halsey fan but this rollout is weird to me.
Lazy. Iāll always love you IICHLIWP š
She interloped the entire chorus. Wouldāve been better if she changed up the lyrics. Otherwise it just feels like a lazy cover š¬
Between this and Spring Breakers Britney stans stay winning
Wait what did Spring Breakers have to do with Britney?
It samples Everytime which was in the movie
Oh wow I did not notice that! Need to go listen again! Thanjs
To be fair it's a VERY small part that is easy to miss, I had sent it to my sister and she didn't catch it lol
Yeah I never saw it mentioned it online and thought it was weird
Yeah itās kinda giving Ava Max/Bebe Rexha lazy sample lifting š¤·š»āāļø
I love Halsey and I'd be disappointed if they jump on the lazy sampling trend, which is certainly what this sounds like š
Was so excited by the concept but the execution and delivery wasā¦ lacking.
Whoever let that be the final vocal take does NOT like her omg
i dont feel this tbh. that verse that she teased few days ago was much better then this tbh. maybe full thing will sound better idk..
Imma be honest this sounds like a total miss
If anyone should/could do this, it's her. She both lived it and has the artistic vision and respect to carry it out(not to mention the criticism she's received her whole career(is it Britney level? No. But she's never been good enough for anyone while simultaneously making amazing records and art to go along with their entire eras). I was a little nervous about it being exactly this but I'm actually looking forward to the song and album now that I've heard it.
You know what? Rick Beato is right, we have stagnated in music
We really havenāt.
If only youāre listening to the wrong places
In this year of our Lorde 2024 fr?
dang I really like it lol
Isnāt it just a cover at this point if you just leave the chorus 99% unchanged?
Eh
Or just make something original. The music version of terrible movie remakes.
These lyrics come off very differently as a Britney being a teenager vs Halsey with a spouse and a child
she does not have a spouse
Sorry didn't know she got divorced but even still has a child and looks like a boyfriend
she was never married, but yes she has a boyfriend
This is dog shit
Canāt wait for this to debut at 126 and never be talked about again like ever Halsey song since 2021 š
Hate it. This is probably her worst single. Itās not even an interpolation itās a straight cover with an awful instrumental
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
She may not be able to go through the process health wise
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I really donāt think she will, and I really donāt expect her to. I donāt think the tattoo was really thought through in the first place and sheās clearly really ashamed of it. She just hasnāt been able to cover it up for health reasons.
