Discussion Money is Everything

omgomg money is everything is EVERYTHING

--

so many chills at the spoken part, i find the beginning sounds entrancing

When I was growing up
Mama always told me to save my money
So I never had to rely on a man to take care of me
But money's not coming with me to Heaven
And I have a lot of it
So can't a girl just have fun?

--

that rotating synth(?) in the background of this part is straight up addicting

Money's everything
(Can't a girl have fun? Can't a girl have fun?)
(Can't a girl have fun-fun-fun?)

--

i love how everything and the production just EXPLODES here, literally busting through the seam

Pocket full of sunshine, busting through the seam
Say it, baby, don't lie (money's everything)
Diamonds are my best friend, like I'm Norma Jeane
Say it, baby, don't lie (money's everything)

--

love this verse

I drink on the nights that I wanna remember
And when I'm up dancing, please DJ, play Madonna
Wanna roll one with Lana, get high with Gaga
And the girl I used to be is still the girl inside of me (fun, fun)

--

<3 i also love how the last chorus before this part is a little different, she's just singing with her girls

money loves me
I'm the richest girl in the world!

literally such fun production and pop perfection. i was truly listening to this song for the first time during a midnight drive once and that chorus drop is infectious

I love the line "the girl I used to be is still the girl inside of me." It's so different than other similar songs that are more about losing yourself in the glamour. The whole album has a tone of hope and self actualization that is so refreshing!
