I love the video, and the more I watch it (only twice so far, don't worry), the more I like the song.
They've upped the number of times you can watch the video on the ticket page to improve your spot in line from 5 to 20 views per day, I'm sure that didn't hurt.
Impressive I wont take that from her, but to put it mildly and as respectfully as possible it doesn’t make the song any less of the hot trash pile that it is.
I didn't like this song on first listen, but the more I listened to it, the more I started digging it. It ain't my fave thing TS has ever done, but god damn, it's still catchy.
