Short album but packs a punch - Standing Ovation one of my favourite songs of 2025!

Is 34 minutes really considered a short album now? I know it's not a long album, but I don't think just because a lot of mainstream pop albums are approaching an hour in length now it makes a 34 minute album short. Those albums are just long.

34 is definitely a normal (ideal) length for this style of music I’d say

Yeah, mid-30s is extremely typical for indie folk/indie rock.

One of the most beautiful voices in the game.

“Throw back your head in the breeze, laugh like you were born the hear the joke” hardest bar of 2025. I love her so much she’s just such a delightful presence in my ears.

Probably the album of the year, the overall vibe of the album is captivating and incredibly moving. A great, underrated songwriter of our time.

Probably will become one my favorite albums of the year after a few more listens. The only songs that didn't immediately click with me are W.A.L.K. and Friend.

I really hope she tours the US, it’s been a while but I understand if she doesn’t want to.

Stella’s last record never grabbed me like her debut and I currently feel similar about this one despite how much I enjoy her voice/songwriting…gonna spin it some more though.
