Gwen Stefani - This is what the Truth Feels Like - Album Review
In 1995 Gwen Stefani was at the real start of her career when her band, No Doubt, released their highly acclaimed third studio album, _Tragic Kingdom_.  This was the album that had “_Just a Girl_” and “_Spirderwebs_” on it, which helped the record to become a 10x multi-platinum seller.  Back then, I don’t think anyone could have guessed that Gwen Stefani would also go on to become a hugely successful pop artist.  _Love, Angel, Music, Baby_ was her first solo release back in 2004 and we all know that album because of “_Hollaback Girl_.”  _The Sweet Escape_ was her sophomore record and it showed a more glamorized, more polished side of Gwen.  Since then she took a hiatus from music, focused on her family and finally reunited with No Doubt back in 2012 for their album, _Push and Shove_.  _This Is What The Truth Feels Like_ is her first solo album in almost 10 years and it’s just as personal and raw as the title might suggest.  
What struck me first about this record was how light most of it felt.  “Misery” and “Make Me Like You” were released before the album and they’re prime examples of how airy some of these tracks can be.  “Misery” is an upbeat, run-of-the-mill pop song that’s less about “misery” and more about her frustrations of falling in love.  Disco-heavy “Make Me Like You” could easily slide into mainstream radio; it’s catchy, fun and the lyrics are broad, yet smart, making it extremely relatable.  This album has a lot that, but as I said, there’s an openness to the lyrics that we haven’t seen from Gwen before, which sets this record apart from her previous material.  “Truth” does this best by putting aside the top-20 sound and stripping it back to a simple guitar behind small, sunny pop beats.  “Maybe I deserve this boy after all that I’ve been through” is a realization she goes through on this track about finding true love and you can hear the real emotion throughout the song.  After that track, it goes into “Used To Love You” which feels wrongly placed after five songs about being in love.  Even though the first five tracks might have come across as a little jaded, there’s no lie in saying that Gwen was talking about the love of her life there.  “Used To Love You” kind of side-steps in to put a small damper on the situation.  It’s a mid-tempo synthpop ballad about how Gwen’s kind of being pulled back to a previous lover with thoughts about how she “used to love” them.  It fits the album sonically, but the lyrics were a huge change in pace from the first few songs and it’s chorus still feels awkward to sing along with.  What I did really love about this track was the outro, where Gwen brings in this backing choir to chant “I don’t know why I used to love you, I don’t, I don’t, I don’t.”  
“_Used To Love You_” was a shift in lyrical content, but “_Red Flag_” kind of twists the entire album into this bass-heavy trap sound.  It sounds nothing like the rest of the record and it’s obnoxious to say the least, where she sounds like she’s trying to egg someone on in a dance battle.  Just the flow of this track was terrible, not to mention the post-chorus chanting that made it really hard to not hit the “skip” button.  She should have kept to the former sound, but the trap-inspiration leaks onto the next track too, the less horrid “_Asking For It_,” which features Fetty Wap.  It’s not terrible, but it gets repetitive after the twentieth time she croons “you’re asking for it” in the hook, which is broken up by Fetty Wap incomprehensibly moaning for 40 seconds before going right back at it.  Sadly her streak of near-unbearable songs doesn’t stop there as we’re lead right into “_Naughty_” which tries to trick you in the beginning.  It starts out with this almost burlesque tune and quite quickly the chorus hits with Gwen sounding like a caddy schoolgirl singing “_you see this finger waggin’-waggin’ at chu_?”  Where’s the heart?  Where the fun choruses from the beginning?  This album quickly went from my summertime soundtrack to something I’ll probably play for only the first five to six songs.  
“Me Without You” is a standout for me because it did a nice job of mixing the light nature of the first few tracks with the bass thumping sounds of the middle.  It’s got a good, soft build up and by the end of the chorus it turns into this chant-along about getting over someone.  It’s followed by the last track on the standard edition, a song called “Rare.”  Judging by those online, “Rare” seems to be a fan favorite, probably for how beautifully done it is.  It’s simple, it brings back the same vibe as the beginning of the album, but there wasn’t much special about it for me.  It starts with a small guitar, adds in some finger-snaps, and builds into another synthpop chorus about how in love she is.  I’m not questioning whether it’s good or not, because I did enjoy it, there’s just better tracks on this album.  Even some that I didn’t mention were better, like “You’re My Favorite” which sounds like a Rebel Heart leftover and “Where Would I Be,” minus the final verse.
For this review I chose to cover only the standard edition, but with hearing the deluxe, I’ve gotta say that there were definitely a few tracks they could have left off of here.  If This Is What The Truth Feels Like had only come out in one edition, they could have removed a few of the not-so-great songs and replaced them with the deluxe tracks, which would have resulted in a much better album.  This record some really great songs, but it could have been a better play-through without the middle section.  Maybe I just really enjoyed the summer-sounding songs, but after writing this review, I’ll probably never play “Red Flag” or “Asking For It” in full again.  I feel like there’s so much more she could have done with this record, but she eventually strayed too far from the beginning sound.  It’s a good album, with some bad songs.
★★★★★★½ | 6.5/10
Favorite Tracks: • Misery

Savages
Murder lives forever And so does war It’s survival of the fittest Rich against the poor At the end of the day It’s a human trait Sewn deep down inside of our DNA
One man can build a bomb Another run a race To save somebody’s life and have it blow up in his face I’m not the only one who finds it hard to understand I’m not afraid of God I am afraid of man
Is it running in our blood Is it running in our veins Is it running in our genes Is it in our DNA Humans aren’t gonna behave as we think we always should Yeah, we can bad as we can be good
Underneath it all we’re just savages Hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages How could we expect anything at all? We’re just animals still learning how to crawl
We live, we die We steal, we kill, we lie Just like animals But with far less grace We laugh, we cry Like babies in the night Forever running wild In the human race
Another day, another tale of rape Another ticking bomb to bury deep and detonate I’m not the only one who finds it hard to understand I’m not afraid of God I am afraid of man
You can see it on the news You can watch it on TV You can read it on your phone You can say it’s troubling Humans aren’t gonna behave as we think we always should Yeah, we can be bad as we can good
Underneath it all we’re just savages Hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages How could we expect anything at all? We’re just animals still learning how to crawl
Underneath it all we’re just savages Hidden behind shirts, ties & marriages Truth is in us all, cradle to the grave We’re just animals still learning to behave
All the hate coming out from a generation Who got everything + nothing guided by temptation Were we born to abuse, shoot a gun + run Or has something deep inside of us come undone? Is it a human trait or is it learned behaviour Are you killing for yourself or killing for your saviour?
Underneath it all, we’re just savages Hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages How could we expect anything at all? We’re just animals still learning how to crawl
Underneath it all we’re just savages Hidden behind shirts, ties & marriages Truth is in us all, cradle to the grave We’re just animals still learning to behave

Weeds
Could have filled a garden With all the flowers that you gave me, baby But none of them were ours You know the problem with history It keeps coming back like a weed
And when nothing feels enough At least you taught me how to love But he keeps growing back
Like weeds Baby, just open your eyes to see He’s growing from inside me And I just don’t know what I can do I thought I cut him at the root Like Weeds Like Weeds
I miss all of my exes They’re the only ones that know me And God knows that sex is A way to feel a bit, a little bit less lonely
Yeah, I tried to keep it covered up Yeah, I thought I cut him at the root But now I think my time is up Cause he keeps growing back
Like weeds Baby, just open your eyes to see He’s growing from inside me And I just don’t know what I can do I thought I cut him at the root Like Weeds Like Weeds Like Weeds Yeah
Baby…
Like weeds Like weeds Like weeds Yeah, yeah
Baby, just open your eyes to see He’s growing from inside me And I just don’t know what I can do I thought I cut him at the root Like Weeds Like Weeds

Better Than That
You’re just another in a long line of men she screwed Just another in a long line of men she knew And yeah she did, yeah she did what she wanted to do Like all the boys before Another dream come true
It’s a power, it’s a power, it’s a power move And while I’m not quite sure what she’s trying to prove They all say she’s got low self-esteem So, why is she looking like a cat who got the cream?
But you, you can do better than You can do better than that
I know you’ve been feeling sad I’ve got no right to be mad But you can do better than that And I know that you’re not to blame You just got caught in a game But you can do better than that Better than that Better than that
She’s the apple of everybody’s eye With an angel voice Devil in disguise Got a sour face like a poisoned fruit That the boys can taste ’til they’re out of use
And she’ll network ’til her dreams come true Even if it means getting into bed with you Everybody’s friend, does it ring a bell? I know a little too much but I’ll never tell
But you, you can do better than You can do better than that
I know you’ve been feeling sad I’ve got no right to be mad But you can do better than that And I know you’ve been feeling down You’re always out on the town But you can do better than that Better than that Better than that
Well, I guess it’s just what humans do Hook up with other people until it all falls through And when it’s over they go out and try and heal their pain Hook up with another lover, do it all again I’m not passing judgment on her sexual life I’m passing judgement on the way she always stuck her knife In my back ever since we were starting out Suspicious from the start, I always had my doubts about you
But you can do better than You can do better than that
I know you’ve been feeling sad I’ve got no right to be mad But you can do better than that And I know that you’re not to blame You just got caught in a game But you can do better than that Better than that Better than that

Solitaire
Don’t wanna talk anymore I’m obsessed with silence I go home and I lock my door I can hear the sirens
I see buildings and bars from the window And I listen to the wind blow I see people and cars covered in gold And I’m happy to be on my own
Hard like a rock, cold like a stone White like a diamond, black like coal Cut like a jewel, yeah I repair Myself when you’re not there
Solitaire Something you consider Rare I don’t wanna be compared With that cheap shimmer + glitter Solitaire
I’m in love with ice blue grey skies of England I’ll admit all I wanna do is get drunk and silent Watch my life unfold all around me Like a beautiful garden I see flowers so tall they surround me Oh my heart, it became so hardened
Hard like a rock, cold like a stone White like a diamond, black like coal Cut like a jewel, yeah I repair Myself when you’re not there
Solitaire Something you consider Rare I don’t wanna be compared With that cheap shimmer + glitter Solitaire
And all the other jewels around me They astounded me at first I covered up my heart in boundaries And all the fakes they called me cursed But I’m not cursed, I’m not cursed I was just covered in the dirt
Solitaire Something you consider Rare I don’t wanna be compared With that cheap shimmer + glitter Solitaire

Gold
You’ve got it in the palm of your hands It’s slipping through your fingers like sand Cause they don’t understand who you are Does’t matter long as I am your star, star
Yeah I know that I need the gold But what I love can’t be bought or sold
Don’t think I want what I used to want Don’t think I need what I used to need Don’t think I want what I used to want Don’t think I see what I used to see
I’ve been waiting, waiting for the penny to drop I’ve been working, working to get back what I lost But whatever happens I’ll be okay Cause fortune’s running out of my veins
I’m coming for you like a Greek gold rush Cause girls they wanna, they just wanna have fund$
Don’t think I want what I used to want Don’t think I need what I used to need Don’t think I want what I used to want Don’t think I see what I used to see In El Dorado your gold To Colorado can’t be bought or sold
Now there’s no moral to this story But I can hear my freedom calling me, calling me
Don’t think I want what I used to want Don’t think I need what I used to need Don’t think I want what I used to want Don’t think I see what I used to see In El Dorado your gold To Colorado can’t be bought or sold
I don’t care that everybody knows I’m a million dollars in the hole I don’t care that everybody knows Baby I don’t even want your gold From El Dorado, your gold To Colorado can’t be bought or sold
Gold Rush Gold Rush
Free, I am free

Forget
Sometimes I think I’m not that strong But there’s a force that carries me on Sick of my small heart, made of steel Sick of those wounds that never heal
Cause I have lived my life in debt I’ve spent my days in deep regret Yeah I been living in the red Oh, cause I can’t forgive and I can’t forget Forget…
Forget, forget, forget Ain’t no time to regret Yeah, it’s time to forget
Ever since I can remember Life was like a tipping scale Like an abacus I played with Counting every win and fail
Cause I have lived my life in debt I’ve spent my days in deep regret Yeah, I’ve been living in the red But I wanna forgive and forget
Forget, forget, forget Ain’t no time for regret Yeah, it’s time…
To be letting go Oh baby you know What I’m talking about Got nothing to lose and nothing to prove Oh baby, I’m bowing out Out, I’m bowing out
Yeah, I’ve been dancing with the devil I love that he pretends to care If I’ll ever get to heaven When a million dollars gets you there
Oh, all the time that I have wasted Chasing rabbits down a hole When I was born to be the tortoise I was born to walk alone
Forget about it Forget about it Forget about it
Forget, forget, forget Ain’t no time to regret
I’m gonna leave the past behind I’ve had enough, I’m breaking free No pressing stop, erase, rewind That chain of thought that followed me
I’ve put my money where my mouth is For the first time in my life I’ve made mistakes but I believe that Everything was worth the fight
Cause in the end, the road is long But only cause it makes you strong It’s filled with peaks & twists & turns Sometimes you have to learn forget about it

Froot
I've seen seasons come and go From winter sun to summer snow This ain't my first time at the rodeo
Nature ain't a fruit machine She's gotta keep her credits clean Good things come to those who wait But I ain't in a patient phase
It's summer time and I hang on a vine They're gonna make me into sweet red wine Hanging around like a fruit on a tree Waiting to be picked, come on cut me free
Come on fill your cup up Looking for some good luck Good luck, good luck to you Hanging like a fruit Ready to be juiced Juiced, juiced
Living la dolce vita Life couldn't get much sweeter Don't you give me a reason That it's not the right season Babe, I love you a lot I'll give you all I've got Yeah, you know that it's true I've been saving all my summers for you I've been saving all my summers for you Like froot, like froot
Baby, I am plump and ripe I'm pinker than shepherd's delight Sweet like honeysuckle late at night
Leave it too long I'll go rot Like an apple you forgot Birds and worms will come for me The cycle of life is complete
I'm your carnal flower, I'm your bloody rose Pick my petals off and make my heart explode I'm your deadly nightshade, I'm your cherry tree You're my one true love, I'm your destiny
Come on fill your cup up Looking for some good luck Good luck, good luck to you Autumn, I'll be gone Birds will sing their mourning song Song
Living la dolce vita Life couldn't get much sweeter Don't you give me a reason That it's not the right season Babe, I love you a lot I'll give you all I've got Yeah, you know that it's true I've been saving all my summers for you I've been saving all my summers for you Like froot, like froot
Oh my body is ready Yeah it's ready, yeah it's ready (for your love) Oh my branches are heavy Yeah they're heavy, yeah they're heavy
Living la dolce vita Life couldn't get much sweeter Don't you give me a reason That it's not the right season Babe, I love you a lot I'll give you all I've got Yeah, you know that it's true I've been saving all my summers for you I've been saving all my summers for you
Like froot (living la dolce vita) Like froot (I'm in love) Living la dolce vita I'm in love I'm in love

I'm A Ruin
I know that I can’t have it all But without you I am afraid I’ll fall I know I’m playing with your heart And I could treat you better but I’m not that smart
When it comes to love, you’re an easy fight A flower in a gun, a bird in flight It isn’t fair and it isn’t right To lead you on like it’s all alright
I played with your heart And I could treat you better but I’m not that smart You still mean everything to me But I want to be free
I’ll ruin, yeah I’ll ruin you I’ve been doing things I shouldn’t do Yeah, uh huh, ooh, I’m a ruin Yeah, uh huh, ooh, I’m a ruin
It’s difficult to move on when nothing was right and nothing’s wrong You still can’t look me in the eye Cause you’ve been bitten once and now you’re twice as shy
I’ve had my share of beautiful men But I’m still young and I want to love again It’s difficult to say goodbye And easier to live a lover’s lie
And I’ve tried to say Babe, I’m gonna ruin you if you let me stay You still mean everything to me, to me But I wanna be free
I’ll ruin, yeah I’ll ruin you I’ve been doing things I shouldn’t do Yeah, uh huh, ooh, I’m a ruin Yeah, uh huh, ooh, I’m a ruin
It doesn’t feel right and it doesn’t feel fair When I’m planning to move on and you’re still standing there Don’t wanna keep a secret but I don’t know how to keep it fair, yeah
I’ll ruin, yeah I’ll ruin you I’ve been doing things I shouldn’t do But I don’t wanna say goodbye But baby I don’t wanna lie To lie, to lie to you I’m a ruin
Yeah, Uh huh, Ooh, I’m a Ruin Yeah, Uh huh, Ooh, I’m a Ruin

Happy
Couldn’t relax Couldn’t sit back And let the sunlight In my lap
I sang a hymn To bring me peace And then it came A melody
It felt so sweet It felt so strong It made me feel like I belonged
All the sadness inside me Melted away Like I was free
I found what I’d been looking for in myself Found a life worth living for someone else Never thought that I could be Happy, Happy
Don’t go out much at all I’ve never been the type to call
I realize to be happy Maybe I need a little company
So now you know you know it all That I’ve been desperately alone
I haven’t found the one for me But I believe in divinity
I found what I’d been looking for in myself Found a life worth living for someone else Never thought that I could be Happy, Happy
I believe in possibility I believe someone’s watching over me And finally I have found a way to be Happy, Happy
From the concrete to the coast I was looking for a holy ghost Like the land joining the sea Happiness it followed me
I believe in possibility I believe someone’s watching over me And finally I have found a way to be Happy, Happy

Taylor Swift - 1989 - 05. All You Had To Do Was Stay
People like you always want back The love they gave away And people like me wanna believe you When you say you've changed The more I think about it now The less I know All I know is that you drove us Off the road (Stay) hey All you had to do was stay Had me in the palm of your hand Then why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in? (Stay) hey Now you say you want it back Now that it's just too late Well coulda been easy All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was stay Here you are now calling me up But I don't know what to stay I've been picking off the pieces Off the mess you made People like you always want back The love they pushed aside But people like me are gone forever When you say goodbye (Stay) hey All you had to do was stay Had me in the palm of your hand Then why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in? (Stay) hey Now you say you want it back Now that it's just too late Well coulda been easy All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was stay Let me remind you This was what you wanted (You ended it) You were all I wanted But not like this Not like this, not like this Oh, all you had to do was (Stay) hey All you had to do was stay Had me in the palm of your hand Then why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in? (Stay) hey Now you say you want it back Now that it's just too late Well coulda been easy All you had to do was (stay) Hey All you had to do was stay Had me in the palm of your hand Then why'd you have to go and lock me out when I let you in? (Stay) hey Now you say you want it back Now that it's just too late Well coulda been easy All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was (stay) All you had to do was (stay)

Taylor Swift - 1989 - 04. Out Of The Woods
Looking at it now It all seemed so simple We were lying on your couch I remember You took a Polaroid of us Then discovered (then discovered) The rest of the world is black and white But we were in screaming color And I remember thinkin' Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? In the clear yet? Good Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? In the clear yet? Good
(Are we out of the wo-o-ods?!) Looking at it now Last December (last december) We were built to fall apart And fall back together (back together) Your necklace hanging from my neck The night we couldn't quite forget, when we decided We decided, to move the furniture so we could dance Baby like we stood a chance Two paper airplanes flying, flying, flying And I remember thinkin' Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? In the clear yet? Good Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? In the clear yet? Good (Are we out of the wo-o-ods?!) Remember when you hit the brakes too soon? 20 stitches in a hospital room When you started cryin', baby I did too But when the sun came up, I was lookin' at you Remember when we couldn't take the heat I walked out and said I'm settin' you free But the monsters turned out to be just trees When the sun came up, you were lookin' at me You were lookin' at me, ooh You were lookin' at me,  I remember, oh I remember Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? In the clear yet? Good Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? In the clear yet? Good Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? In the clear yet? Good Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? In the clear yet? Good
