I never seen a Height Wurther and I never will.
The Charlie XCX of this makes me like it more than I otherwise would, which would be not all that much. The album definitely registers like a movie soundtrack? And not a movie I particularly am drawn to see.
But "Wall of Sound," "Chains," and to a lesser extent "House," all deliver a poppy enough fun enough experience. It was well received when I played it over the speaker at work.
We have one employee who's early 40s and dealing with that, and one intern who's early 20s and dealing with that. I obviously relate more with the 40 than the 20, but not completely. 40 has been making a game of playing their favorite music and seeing if 20 knows who the artist is. Prince? Madonna? Backstreet Boys? Strike out! 40 finds it very shocking that just a twenty year gap could destroy so much pop culture awareness, but conversely I'm pleased to see 20 recognizes a song every so often. After this album, 40 readily admitted she didn't know who Charlie XCX was; looking glasses look both ways.
What is that story about anyway? Is "Wurthering" a place or a characteristic? It was always just outside the high school canon.
