The aesthetic of the song is great. I love the atmosphere of it all and am hope it is indicative of the direction she is heading toward with this new album. On the negative end though, I don't think the melody/vocal really excels over the arrangment/supporting elements. There are also two notes which sound identical to those in that "Boom Clap" song which I thought was dreadful.
Anyways, have a good feeling for this album. This single is miles better than Roar which truly is probably my most hated song she has ever released (actually I take that back, Dark Horse is the worst).
