Reviving this old thread since my childhood fav is making music again.

So has anyone else heard Hilary's new music. She actually sounds great. Not completely my style of music but nice. And she looks awesome.

Aaah - she was one of my childhood faves as well! I like the new music, it's cute, but I still prefer her older songs. Probably just because I grew up with them. And you're right. She looks gorgeous!

That's sad. Well, it's not like she was going on tour or something like that, I bet she's busy with her acting career and finishing shooting for the second season of Younger. I'm still obsessed with Sparks, but BYBO is very immature. It's not bad, but I don't mind if she moves on and delivers a better album in the future.

She has been planning on going on tour for a LONG TIME! She had her website open to vote for cities around the world that she should consider stopping at before the album even came out.

Well, they fucking tanked this era with the absolutely horrible choice in singles. Killed the buzz before it even had a chance to take off. I guess it's partially her fault, she wanted to do all that earthy shit and nobody was feeling that humstrum tooth-pickin' organic banjo-loving shit.

I was DYING to hear One In A Million live!

^ I didn't know that. The last time I heard anything about the possibility of a tour was recently, after the release of BYOB. Some people asked her on Twitter about it and she said she'd like to do it but wasn't sure, and also that it would have to happen after the second season of Younger.

^ not even a fan but I agree. Gave it a listen and I like it!
Someone mentioned how music isn't her main career, it's just a side thing. Her real thing is acting or something...

Listening to the album right now, it's definitely not a bad album. It's fun. Arms Around a Memory and Tattoo are my favorite tracks. Tattoo is SO beautiful!

^ Funny cause I thought Sparks was the weakest track, besides the dreadful "Picture This."

Dignity is really highly overrated, imo. It has a cheaper sound to it and already sounded somewhat dated when it first came out. Like it was behind the trend yet somehow ahead of it.

But yes, this is her best album, no doubt. I had never felt that kind of relief before. I was in tears and had to pick my jaw of the floor multiple times when indulging in the first track I chose to listen to, which was "One In A Million." Clearly the winner.

My Top 3:
1. One In A Million
2. My Kind
3. Confetti

Omg One In A Million is one of the best pop songs ever bestowed upon the world. Shit ya'll need to get with it and bump that jam more often.

Also, My Kind is super great too.

Take the rest as you may but those two songs alone made my anatagonizng wait for this album so worth it.

Arms Around a Memory is in my top 10 favorite songs of 2015 lol! It's SO damn good!! But Matthew Koma, one of the writers and producers, NEVER disappoints with whatever he makes for other artists.

Dignity set high standards but this album is a masterpiece. I'm totally addicted but especially can't stop listening Arms around memory, Lies, One in a million, Brave heart and Confetti.

By the way, thanks God she didn't add Chasing the sun and All about you...

The only track I still listen to pretty often is Sparks, my anthem for 2015.

I love this album, it makes me feel kinda light hearted and the arrangements are so smooth and pleasant, I listen to it on repeat two or three times without even wanting to. One In A Million stands as my favourite out of the album, probably with Arms Around a Memory coming close behind, wish she could make singles out of them...

I was also surprised when I gave this album a listen as a whole, it's impressive and so good.
Indeed it feels lightweight, cheery and fresh, something I really need at that time.

My favorite tracks would be Sparks, One In A Million, Arms Around a Memory and Tattoo
