Predicting ur fave song on Build a Problem based on ur fave song from the rest of dodie’s discography
Air So Sweet: Secret for the Mad

It feels like she took the advice in secret for the mad and is now happy and content and that’s so sweet to me! And the piano droning/harmonies in secret for the mad has always had same vibes as her a cappella stuff to me.
Hate Myself: In the Middle

The pattering at the beginning and the build ups to the choruses feel so distinctly similar to me, can’t explain it
I Kissed Someone (It Wasn’t You): Absolutely Smitten

This song is Absolutely Smitten in minor. Does that make sense?? Like the other perspective of Absolutely Smitten. If u gave Absolutely Smitten depression. I’m just saying words now.
Cool Girl: Guiltless

These songs were written around the same period so have such similar sounds and are made for each other, Guiltless is soprano and Cool Girl is baritone if that makes sense to anyone else
Special girl: Monster

The openings are incredibly similar, the choruses, the percussion, the overall tone/sound of these songs is SO very similar vibes 2 me. Also both ab being /special/ in some way. Like Special Girl went to college and became Monster.
Rainbow: She

Obviously if u are an ancient YouTube dodie stan u will be ecstatic that Rainbow is finally being released w a 7 piece orchestra but since it’s not an existing song, if u liked She u will bawl ur eyes out at yet another softie gay song
? : Arms Unfolding

Deeply, achingly melancholy and longing in the way that Arms Unfolding is. Could have paired Arms Unfolding w Air So Sweet but the composition of these two songs is just too reminiscent to not.
Four Tequilas Down: Party Tattoos

Feels like the older sister of Party Tattoos, similar feeling and lyrically just older. Like Party Tattoos has learned and grown and now fucks around bc she’s chasing the high of her youth. Lolol pls don’t take this personification too seriously
. : Instrumental
Are there 2 fully instrumental tracks on this album? Yes. Does this one have much more Instrumental instrumental vibes? Also yes.
Sorry: If I’m Being Honest

A beautiful through line of songs, If I’m Being Honest is so “I don’t think you are capable of loving me” and Sorry is “I fucking knew it, I fucked it all up like I always knew I would” and the tones are very similar and it’s just SAD
When: When-Live

A lowkey cheat, but come on if you loved the og live recording of When then u have been anxiously awaiting the day that the fully orchestrated version was released
Before the line: 6/10

Distinctly different musical styles but this fukin reeks of “I’m having a depressive episode and this song WILL make me cry and make it worse but also better” I see u 6/10 lovers, ur masochists and I respect
I’m skipping Guiltless and Boys Like You since they were released as singles not connected to the album previously but here’s all the demos too!!
bored like me: Boys Like You

You like it when dodie experiments outside of her style and you’re honestly valid in ur taste. Both very different to anything she had released (at least at the time) and honestly I respect it
let go: Ready Now

Both feel like they would soothe my depression. I find both deeply comforting and they have a similar sound. Like a nice weighted blanket.
bite back: Not What I Meant

It’s the plucky acoustic for me. Come on EXACT vibes, this ones a no brainer for me.
one last time, please: Sick of Losing Soulmates

So much of this album just feels like the aged up version of dodie’s older stuff. Like the through line FROM Soulmates INTO one last time, please is so desperate and heartbreaking.
all my daughters: Burned Out

“But I feel it/How they love me/All my daughters” is just the angstier version of “But they love you/Over and over they love you/Thousands and thousands of eyes just like mine” and you CANT CHANGE MY MIND
anything: Human

Similar plucky acoustics, similar “I would do anything to be with you, all I want is to be with you” vibes. anything feels a lot healthier than Human and we love that growth!
in the bed: Intertwined

May be controversial but in the bed is the grown up mature version of Intertwined and you can’t change my mind. This is and all my daughters inspired this thread.
don’t quite belong: You

The same upbeat but we’re saddd and bumpin acoustics, just minus the Parisian influence
Anyways Twitter is limiting how many more tweets I can make in this thread so that’s the whole album, thank u for joining me and tolerating the current fixation 😌
