listening to the chainsmokers not doing edm trap is definately a trip, and shockingly enjoyable. yes, be early 2010s zedd and avicii please.
i'm getting the vibe that this album was meant to release in 2022-2023 but then the adam levine "holy fuck holy fucking fuck" thing happened and it got delayed
this song would be absolutely SLAMMED if it released at that time but now that we're past that tiny point in pop music it's somewhat refreshing to hear.
this is the first officially released solo bruno mars song since 2016,,, and it's the streaming release of a one minute long novelty track he made to celebrate a 15 show tour in Brazil in a social media video, as part of a new collaboration with fortnite.

this is certified worm hours
this is a very funny album that i cannot tell if it was trying to be intentionally funny or not. i can't help to find the concept of a giant fucking worm eating britain with some of the most cheesy rock guitars and symphonic orchestration money can buy absolutely hilarious.
it also helps that it's also performed quite well despite how absurd the premise seems
favs: wyrmlands, saddest worm ever, past life (sinnerman's song)
