Yassss

[@sunshine-xq2lc]

she's like a human autotune. her live performances sound exactly like the studio version, if not better.

[@bennshouts]

Its actually insane! 😍😍😍

[@sunshine-xq2lc]

@@bennshouts also you should def check out Sophie, Charli xcx, 100 gecs, Dorian Electra etc. since she's huge in the hyperpop genre.

[@jagged546]

From what I understand she has formal opera training

[@samueladin6645]

This album is so criminally underrated

[@bennshouts]

AGREED! It's actually a masterpiece!

[@MultiGreenG]

"Door" was my first song that I heard from Carloline and it has stayed my favorite ever since. 😍

[@bennshouts]

YESSSS

[@zanoti4461]

pang is probably one of my favorite albums ever, i'm happy you liked it

[@sofiameneses15]

Yes, El Mal Querer is a must. One of my fav albums of all time

[@bennshouts]

Me too! So glad I listened! Yessss! Some one has recommended it before! Its on my list 😍😍

[@Grav3yardguy01]

I was obsessed with this album when it came out!! Idk if you’ve listened to Charli xcx before but she has a song with Caroline on her mixtape Pop 2 where Caroline basically just screams throughout the entire song! You should check that album out!

[@bennshouts]

Wow, that sounds perfect! Will add it to the list, have been wanting to check Charli out!

[@MultiGreenG]

Her voice is a Cello, Violin and Accordian mixed all together.

[@bennshouts]

INCREDIBLE

[@edwardfurtado1433]

I highly recommend you look into the discography of Chairlift, the band Caroline was in before she went solo around 2008-2016!! great experimental tracks that really are pieces of art that I feel like were before their time tbh

[@fkajake]

you should deffo check out perfume genius - set my heart of fire immediately !! a stunning piece of alternative art pop! one of the best albums of last year!

[@bennshouts]

Ooo, I’ll add it to the list 💜

[@TrazzyStar]

Yessss mustache man at it again 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙊🥵

[@bennshouts]

Hehehe trying my best! ☺️

[@marciovelho747]

this album is insanely good with headphones, such a vibe!

[@bennshouts]

Omg i can imagine

[@LA-nx4fv]

This album was actually meant to be played in the reverse order of songs for the over arching storyline to make sens. I'd recommend checking HahaYes's video on the subject ! Great reaction, I hope you react to even more PC Music affiliated projects like this one.

[@bennshouts]

Oh wow - thats super interesting! Thank you!!!! ❤️❤️

[@ratatat96]

I just discovered your channel 1 hour ago and I can't believe that you're reacting to Pang !, is one of my favourite albums and I think Caroline is such an underrated artist, btw I love your voice and eloquence 😊

[@bennshouts]

Aww welcome! Im so glad timing worked out and you get to see this! 😘 THANK YOU!!!!!

[@ratatat96]

[@aemutants]

i love this album sm probably one of my fav from 2019. anyway it would cool if you check mitski's works, i'd suggest puberty 2 or bury me at makeout creek

[@bennshouts]

Ive got Mitski on my list hehe so will def get to her! 🥰🥰🥰

[@javiiiugp]

Omg one of my faves! That album helped me to pass through a stressful moment in my life haha I appreciate it so much. Criminally underrated, it has quite a lot potential hit songs ❤️ Loved your reaction! Waiting for more 😉

[@bennshouts]

Aww! Glad it could be there for you! Thank you so much 🥰🥰

[@lucasfreire8290]

I understand the grudge with the "common" production of So Hot You're Hurting My Feelings _but I believe most people who learned to enjoy her music got introduced to her by that song (maybe not much nowadays, thanks to the Charli XCX feat, but it was very much the case before that), so I also understand how important it was to expand the reach of the project I have a really soft spot for SHYHMF exactly 'cause I discovered Caroline thanks to the popularity it received back than on 2019/beginning of 2020 _and 'cause I find the song to be really relatable and catchy, that comes on the perfect moment to break a bit of the "similar" sound that the rest of the album has, show a bit more of her versatility and, in a quirky way, transmit more of the overall narrative of the album with this "psicopathic" obsessed anthem _I'm always fond of those (like One Way Or Another from Blondie and Crazy Girls from Paramore, as other examples), so I really believe this album wouldn't be complete without it I respect your opinion about it 'tho, of course

[@bennshouts]

Love your take on this and all this info! Thank you 💖 and thank you for being so respectful!!!

[@bianogacayan]

YES YES YES TY TY TY FOR THIS REACTION

[@bennshouts]

You are welcome!!! 😍😍😍😍

[@Joi2049]

New Normal was perhaps predictive programming. Song came out in 2019, but it references 2020 and 2021 pretty eerily. "The orange cat, finish what he started" references Trump (Orange Man Bad) finishing his term. "It's house arrest" pretty self explanatory. "Hollywood ghost town, a shootout scene, no actors at all" - lockdowns halted not just the industry but more importantly every industry.

[@bennshouts]

Oh wow… thats intense!!!

[@PurpleSneakers16]

She came out with a new single called Bunny is a Rider! Would definitely recommend you check it out!

[@bennshouts]

Omg I neeeeeed too!

[@sofiameneses15]

This album is a masterpiece

[@bennshouts]

Literally

[@aaronrdomanais]

this album was my entire personality right before the pandemic lol. i think she used to do opera or something so the voice thing she does is actually just her

[@bennshouts]

That explains it, her voice is STUN!

[@aaronrdomanais]

@@bennshouts also i discovered her through charli xcx's ep Pop2 so… maybe u could check it out 😗👀🥺🤪😌 ty lol

[@underworld8805]

This is masterpiece.

[@bennshouts]

Agreed!

[@TsiniWeeny]

Omfg you reacted to Pang!!!!!

[@bennshouts]

Yesssss! 😍😍😍

[@MultiGreenG]

Love love love this artist and this album. ❤

[@bennshouts]

Me too!

[@paraneue3002]

literally read RECREATION and was like, wow I'm ready to hear where this goes

[@bennshouts]

yessss

[@joogies]

Not the too hot you're hurting my feelings hate 😭😭 it's okay, I'm sure it could grow on you. I know people have recommended it, but Life Support by Madison Beer is good pop for production hoes. As well as infections of a different kind by Aurora. You don't have to react to this because it's not really super popular, but you should check out Dreaming of David by Ryan Beatty. Anywhom, thanks for sharing your reactions ! 🥰💕

[@bennshouts]

Hahaha I’m sorry 😘😘 Yep, gotta get into Madison Beer asap! Will add Aurora though and get to the other! Thank you!!!

[@ineedacigarette1688]

I love Door

[@bennshouts]

Sooo gooooood

[@Juniorm4286]

if you liked this album can u do a reaction vid to the pang remixes plssss

[@bennshouts]

I’ll add it to the list 🥰🥰

[@malenastefano8632]

please react to the album "ghosts" by Siobhan Donaghy

[@cameroncancelliere7809]

you need to listen to what’s your pleasure? by jessie ware! every song in a bop and will get your body moving!

[@bennshouts]

Ohhhh! Will add it to the list! 😊😊

[@nickfaust2804]

I just saw her live with Dua lipa and it was so fucking beautiful 😩

[@bennshouts]

SO JEALOUSSSSS

[@thiagoandrade6485]

YES

[@bennshouts]

😍😍

[@zanoti4461]

YES YES YES YES YES i haven't even watched the video but YES

[@bennshouts]

🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 you melt my soul

[@MultiGreenG]

React to AURORA if you haven't already. Great artist.

[@bennshouts]

Will add then to the list x

[@rominasotom]

Ok, so there's this fan theory that this album is meant to be listened in reverse, as the storyline makes more sense that way. Check it out, it's super interesting: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2bMaHyma99ml7s

[@bennshouts]

Ohhh thank you!!!

[@gabbywalker4801]

yess , charli xcx now sir !!

[@bennshouts]

Added her to the list 😍

[@waleed5236]

Really wanna know how you managed to fuck up the quality

[@waleed5236]

Great reactions though

[@bennshouts]

HAHAHAHAHAHA! I was tryna do manual focus (it worked on my last vid) but not one 😓 gonna stick to autofocus haha

[@bennshouts]

Thanks tho 😛

[@bluraspbery]

I like the remix for So hot your hurting my feelings by A.G cook better than the original

[@mattDettling]

Her voice reminds me of Betty Who

[@bennshouts]

I dont think Ive ever hears her 😮

[@jedersonn.esilva4037]

She wrote Beyoncé's No Angel

[@bennshouts]

SHES ICONIC

[@jedersonn.esilva4037]

@@bennshouts I love her. Also, can you please react to Aurora's live performance at KEXP Iceland? In my opinion, that is the most powerful live performance I've ever seen!

[@zanoti4461]

oh wow, its so funny that you didint like her biggest single lol i totally see it tho, its a lot more mainstream then the rest of the album

[@bennshouts]

😂😂😂 right?! Just didnt fit for me!

[@sebastiancarreno8329]

YASSS

[@bennshouts]

💙💙💙💙💙💙

[@saysuhmi]

Wouldn’t she fall into the hyperpop genre?!

[@bennshouts]

Omg, I never even thought about that?!

[@johnleocomia]

Watch the so hot you're hurting my feelings music video haha

[@bennshouts]
