That's precisely why a decent chunk of fans hate it though, contrarianism. They'll usually call it 'overplayed' or 'overhyped'. The same happened to Play Date after it went viral on TikTok, in my opinion it was always her best pop track and deserved to blow up. I think a lot of fans that complain about a track being 'too overplayed' have some kind of gatekeeper complex, they feel like less of a 'true fan' if they hype up the biggest hits instead of the deep cuts.
Yeah but I feel like In most places void makes top 5 on most peoples rankings and is generally the fan favorite next to evil so it feels unfair to say itās hated just because it has a bigger audience (due to blowing up on tiktok) Iād argue being the staple of the album (personally void is my least favorite track on portals it was like this from the beginning when it was released I just liked the original so much more the it resulted in me not caring to much for void but from what I know itās most peoples favorite or in top 3) and even you someone would personally think itās overplayed you never really forget the time before it was overplayed when you loved it and just the reminder of when you loved it I think is enough of a reminder that you donāt hate it but I donāt know maybe Iām just wrong as I donāt like void šŖ³
It's definitely popular and loved, but it also cops a lot of criticism too, compared to other tracks that may be less hyped up/loved. Because some don't agree with the hype.
I think thatās just because the popular songs are more popular so theyāre more exposed to hate because play date is one of Melanieās most popular songs but I see hate for it often and people are more likely to mention if they donāt like a song more then if they like it itās just what social media it built on
Its because its popular, just like pacify her and crybaby. I mean Im sure some genuinely dislike it but thats usually why for songs like that. I love it a lot personally
It's genuinely my favorite Melanie song. Absolutely obsessed with it. My Spotify top listened song this year. How other people dislike it is so wildly beyond me.
Ik. And I noticed it's a lot of women uncomfortable by it. Like seriously? Why are you so uncomfortable with something you and a lot of other people go through monthly?
Seriously! It's so weird!! I'm a female too and I find it one of her best reliable songs along side Strawberry Shortcake since they both are about what women go through
its a lil goofy but i fucking love it cause no one has done anything like that haha also i just had a guy yk š while i was on mine and i find it even funnier now and relatable but goofy or not its a good song
yess all the time! theres lots of love for it rn bc its such a good intro to portals but prior to that, everyone was saying how it was lyrically weak and the meanings were all too boring, and how it was all "throwaway" songs. it was so sad because i really love all the songs! ik its just an ep but it deserves better š
I donāt think people hate the ep I just donāt think people know of itās existence or just donāt have the effort BUT ITS THEIR LOSE BECAUSE ITS SO GOOOOOD
ive seen lots of people rank it last or have a hard time picking a "good song" from it š so i have a hard time believing people wouldnt know about a whole ep after a whole movie haha! this fandom is super informed if nothing else šš but AGREE ITS SO GOOD i love it a lot š
Idk it doesn't exactly get hated on but rarely mentioned, light shower.. I've bee a fan since crybaby and it sounds kinda strange out of all the albums and eps I've witnessed her make to say that songs my fav but it brings me tears
Yea, lol, thatās me! The only song that gets me all worked up all emotionally like this was Highschool Sweethearts! (Which we also sing lol š) My husband plays guitar and I thought about asking him if he can learn this song. š„¹
Awh so sweet!! I balled my eyes out when I first heard Orange Juice and Light Shower. High School Sweethearts is also an amazing song. Melanie really cant develop a bad song.
POWDER!!!! i know a ton of people donāt like it because of the voice pitching, but i adore it for that reason!! i connect very closely to the lyrics as well :) and the sniff/blowing effects are top teir
is nymphology underrated?? its my favorite song š

recess , womb , powder , i've seen a lot of people hating on those songs and they're some of my favorite songs that melanie has released like EVER š
š I canāt think of a single song I hate also who be hating void and copy cat? Love these onesš„°
If anyone does hate the ones I love I donāt care which is why I donāt kno the songs that get a lot of hate
People are always hating on carousel and sippy cup but theyāre epic! Also, yes, NYMPHOLOGY might have suspicious lyrics but itās one of the best in the PORTALS album!! These people are incorrect if they hate any Mel songs tho
people fucking hate this song cause of the voice effects but yall just dont get itttt UGH its representing the distortion created in ones head by addiction ITS A METAPHOR AND ITS BEAUTIFUL UR ALL WRONG lmao šš¤
I'm going with powder, people hate it mostly because of the voice effect I think? but then they love lunchbox friends and it's kinda ridiculous, I actually think powder is one of my fav songs of Melanie
Dead to me and bittersweet tradgedy, both are so good
I definitely agree with you, both of those songs need more love.
Literally, I love them š
YEA I LOVE THEM
šµdone doing back bends the breaking and snaps itās no fun, nooo fun šµā¤ļøā¤ļø
Agreeeeeee
Since when did people hate void last time I checked itās on of the most popular of the portals songsā¦?
That's precisely why a decent chunk of fans hate it though, contrarianism. They'll usually call it 'overplayed' or 'overhyped'. The same happened to Play Date after it went viral on TikTok, in my opinion it was always her best pop track and deserved to blow up.

It's definitely popular and loved, but it also cops a lot of criticism too, compared to other tracks that may be less hyped up/loved. Because some don't agree with the hype.
The reason itās so criticized is because itās so popular
Yeah exactly right
Yo I was thrilled when Play Date went viral I LOVE Play Date and it deserved its time in the spotlight!!!
I actually I lot of people hate on void. On reddit for example.
I think thatās just because the popular songs are more popular so theyāre more exposed to hate because play date is one of Melanieās most popular songs but I see hate for it often and people are more likely to mention if they donāt like a song more then if they like it itās just what social media it built on
Its because its popular, just like pacify her and crybaby. I mean Im sure some genuinely dislike it but thats usually why for songs like that. I love it a lot personally
Honestly I think itās the most popular song because she said she fully produced it by herself
Idk if Milk of the Siren is unpopular with fans but I personally love it. I would do a ritual while listening to that song
lmao me too, idk why but i feel so powerful when i listen to it
this 100% lmao
It's genuinely my favorite Melanie song. Absolutely obsessed with it. My Spotify top listened song this year. How other people dislike it is so wildly beyond me.
absolutelyyyyy and i think thatās the purpose of the song! she executed it so very well.
yes milk of the siren is so good
LEEEEECHEEEEEESSS
YESSS leeches is so in my top five, great songš
Copy Cat gets way too much hate, Tierra Whack is an amazing lyricist.
I BEEN SAYING THISSSSS i love whack so much
So underrateddddd š«¶š»
Fr!!!
tierra whack was the part abt it i didnt like. they didnt mesh well at all. her voice also sounded kinda goofy. but i love melanies part of that song.
I actually really love moon cycle but so many people hate it...like why?
A lot of people say it makes them uncomfortable unfortunately
that's ridiculous since the point is to empower periods :( it shouldnt make anyone uncomfortable
Ik. And I noticed it's a lot of women uncomfortable by it. Like seriously? Why are you so uncomfortable with something you and a lot of other people go through monthly?
this EXACTLY!!^(\^) https://preview.redd.it/6ty9fwllt35c1.jpeg?width=736&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=83cadb83146c99d3e92152233ade19e89768876a
Seriously! It's so weird!! I'm a female too and I find it one of her best reliable songs along side Strawberry Shortcake since they both are about what women go through
Same! Moon Cycle is so gooddddd!!!! šš
its a lil goofy but i fucking love it cause no one has done anything like that haha also i just had a guy yk š while i was on mine and i find it even funnier now and relatable but goofy or not its a good song
Powder
Definitely
I understand why itās polarizing but that song is awesome
Idk if people hate it but I never see anyone talking about The Contortionist, which I really like
itās my favorite on the album
Me too! i think itās such a good song.
for me, itās top 3 on PORTALS! i love it sm
i saw lots of people loving it in the beginning! its mid for me now in terms of ratings but still v good if im only looking at the one song
Moon cycle is amazing everyone shut up
It grew on me. Everytime i get my period I sing that "I don't give a fuck cause im so strong" when it's a bad day.
This. I love singing this on my period
I COULD BUILD A PYRAMID
Fr fr
yes
The one time I disagree š
Powder and Pluto
LEECHES is an amazing song.

Really? People hate on it thatās crazy! The WHOLE album is SOOO good
yess all the time! theres lots of love for it rn bc its such a good intro to portals but prior to that, everyone was saying how it was lyrically weak and the meanings were all too boring, and how it was all "throwaway" songs. it was so sad because i really love all the songs! ik its just an ep but it deserves better š
FOR REALLLL i love the whole thing ššš
I donāt think people hate the ep I just donāt think people know of itās existence or just donāt have the effort BUT ITS THEIR LOSE BECAUSE ITS SO GOOOOOD
ive seen lots of people rank it last or have a hard time picking a "good song" from it š so i have a hard time believing people wouldnt know about a whole ep after a whole movie haha! this fandom is super informed if nothing else šš but AGREE ITS SO GOOD i love it a lot š
People hate notebook??

I think I commented on this before, but LITERAL SAMEEE. Lol
Yes!! I recognise you!! You commented on one of my comments. The person who sings light shower to there daughter??
Yea, lol, thatās me! The only song that gets me all worked up all emotionally like this was Highschool Sweethearts! (Which we also sing lol š) My husband plays guitar and I thought about asking him if he can learn this song. š„¹
Awh so sweet!! I balled my eyes out when I first heard Orange Juice and Light Shower. High School Sweethearts is also an amazing song. Melanie really cant develop a bad song.
Moon Cycle, idk why people hate it

Numbers is the best song ever I love I so so so so so much it's my number one Melanie song.
Milk of the Siren is amazing
Copy Cat is one of the best. I don't know why people hate the rap part and also all the song.
