People are down on Sympathy? But it’s pretty much a perfect song/remix! One of my favorites on here and I’m not even a big Ariana fan.
Never everrrr liked a remix album this much. it’s different enough from the original and strong enough that it works as a standalone record which is awesome. It’s like brat filtered through pop 2 with a hefty dose of triumph.
Yeah some of these, like “Mean Girls,” feel like they hardly even qualify as a “remix” - it’s more like just a completely different song that just incorporates some part of the original. Which I’m all for, tbc
From a sequencing perspective on the remix album, I might say somethings stupid -> talk talk is perfect, tickles my ears hearing that transition
Understanding that we might (SHOULD) get a hello goodbye remix, and this may not be final, I have put together my ultimate BRAT playlist, subject to edits or changes as time goes on to make it perfect. 1. 360 2. 360 featuring robyn & yung lean 3. Sympathy is a knife 4. Sympathy is a knife featuring ariana graden 5. I might say something stupid 6. I might say something stupid featuring the 1975 & jon hopkins 7. Talk talk 8. Talk talk featuring troye sivan 9. Von dutch 10. Von dutch a. g. cook remix featuring addison rae 11. Everything is romantic 12. Everything is romantic featuring caroline polachek 13. Club classics 14. Club classics featuring bb trickz 15. Rewind 16. Rewind featuring bladee 17. So I 18. So I featuring a. g. cook 19. Girl, so confusing featuring lorde 20. Guess featuring billie eilish 21. Apple 22. Apple featuring the japanese house 23. Spring breakers featuring kesha 24. B2b 25. B2b featuring tinashe 26. Mean girls 27. Mean girls featuring julian casablancas 28. Hello goodbye 29. I think about it all the time 30. I think about it all the time featuring bon iver 31. 365 32. 365 featuring shygirl - I left out the original girl so confusing, guess and spring breakers because in all 3 cases the remix is a verse addition rather than a wholy new song, because of this I think it's best to just keep the remix rather than having two songs that are so similar - I strongly believe 365 is how the album should close, so I rearranged the bonus tracks and bonus remixes within the album so that 365 remix still closes the whole thing. I could be convinced to swap 395 and the remix so that it ends with the OG 365 but I am not sold on that - I have never liked the placement of Club classics as the second track. Partially because it's my least favorite song and I don't really like it that close to the front of the album, but I just personally never have liked the flow of 360-Club classics-Sympathy, so I shifted 360 and remix later in the track list where I think it flows better
